Lol, IDK if it's worth woodying them, but go for it.

Just realize that they have a small soundstage compared to most headphones these days. (which can be good or bad)

Also, I like the ATH-AD700's with this type of music, so you may want to consider them.

But I've never heard any grado, so, my opinion might not be worthy =p

I have some SR80i's (hole punch modded) and I really enjoy them for all types of rock and acoustic music. The Grado's sound is very aggressive in its upfront presentation, meaning the sound stage is rather narrow but I think its an advantage. The bass isn't overpowering at all  (I personally hate when bass overpowers some of those mids that are so lovely with Grado's). Honestly the best thing you can do is try them. If you can manage to find anywhere locally that has a demo go for it, if not try and find a place with a nice return policy so you can get some time with the headphones.

At the Drive-In, Cave In, Fugazi, La Dispute, and Saetia are notable Post-Hardcore bands, completely different than what you call post-hardcore.

 

Edit: To say that post-hardcore has basically been "dead" since the late 90s. Crappy bands like Silverstein are labeled as post-hardcore, but definitely aren't.

this man is wise. Neurosis is certainly not post hardcore. More like ambient sludge.

So bands that I would consider "post-hardcore" would be:
The Word Alive
A Bullet For Pretty Boy
Haste the Day
So even if this isn't "real" post-hardcore or it is, it is still a few guys trying to entertain haha, and that is what works for me.
Just out of curiosity though, how would you mod an HD555 into a HD595?
these are great suggestions though thanks

that certainly is not post hardcore. In fact that isn't even music. Just buy the beats.

Hey i wanna noe What types of IEMs should i get if im a fan of post hardcore music...budget is 80-130 bucks
