Rush - Vapor Trails would be one.

My shures & grados remind me this a bad recording, but on the Axioms it's just plain horrible... at one point I checked the cables since the guy's voice sounded like it does when my headphones are only plugged in halfway.

Whoever masters this stuff should be fired. More fuel to the "metal/rock is badly mastered" fire.

Have you ever questioned wheather your hifi was working properly up due to a bad recording before?
