Great albums you wish sounded better
KevShmev:
First two that came to mind:
Muse - Absolution I could almost say this about any of their other albums, but this album is so compressed to death, it makes me wince at times. Such a great album, full of mostly really good to great songs, but the production and sound of it is a really a major disservice. The studio version of "Stockholm Syndrome" literally sounds like someone through huge blankets over both of my speakers. Oy.
Dream Theater - Scenes from a Memory This album is strange in that some of the songs sound good from a production standpoint and some do not. It's a shame that, with as much detail as they obviously put into the story and all, they didn't put more into making it sound as good as possible.
ClairvoyantCat:
I would say most early Pain of Salvation albums.
RobD:
All the Opeth albums up to Deliverance. Blackwater Park was almost good, but the mastering destroyed it by pushing it way to far.

This, definitely, and also Devin Townsend - Physicist. A ton of people don't like the album, but I have a feeling they'd be more fond of it if it wasn't for the piss poor production.
Also Terria, again from Townsend because of that goddamned kick drum.

In that Terria thing, I don't like the sound of drums as a whole.
Good thing it's a brilliant album and songs like Earth Day make me forget about the production issues :metal
