It kinda sucks they try to make things louder and louder and before long the difrence between the low sound and high sound is very slim.
Aslo you are righ about death magnetic thats one of the worst perpitrators out there.
We shoul all go back to vinyls they have much better sound quality if they are in good shape. you can even get a thing now to hook to your pc and convert the songs on a vinyl record to mp3s
