Periodic Audio IEMs Mg, Ti, Be, C
That could have been me, among others who are spreading the gospel over there (@markm1 and @sludgeogre). To me, Be sounds very Audeze-like (I have LCD-2 and LCD-4), I get that warm familiar sound and pleasantly rolled-off treble with foam tips (I use Campfire marshmallow tips, Comply foam also...- Zyklonius

Headphones for metal music - ultimate solution
I tried Cascade at CANJAM NYC (straight from my iPod) and was floored. Absolutely stunning, skull-rattling bass with slam and visceral impact that rumbles and levels entire city blocks. Initially felt surprisingly warm, with almost-overpowering bass seemingly bleeding into the mids which first...- Zyklonius

If you are talking about Fen's Winter - yes, it is spectacular. For good reason, I had it among my favorite 2017 releases, which you can find here: https://ninecircles.co/2017/12/19/best-of-2017-zyklonius-list/ My best of 2016 list might also be of interest to you... -
ATTICUS and EIKON, the new dynamic driver headphones from ZMF
I can only imagine how amazing Dopesmoker sounds with Atticus. I can attest to its pure transcendental glory with LCD-2. Most importantly, let us know what kind of shirt Matt Pike wore during Sleep's set.- Zyklonius

Headphones for metal music - ultimate solution
Since you are already in the Schiit camp, a multibit/R2R version of Bifrost or Gungrir (depending on your budget) would be the logical next step towards further refinement and bliss. Multibit adds to the cost but is worth every penny. @RCBinTN convinced me to upgrade my delta-sigma Gungnir to a...- Zyklonius

Headphones for metal music - ultimate solution
I don't care much about algorithms. Instead, I follow a lot of people on Bandcamp, so my feed is full of recommendations from people with matching tastes. I peruse a plethora of metal blogs on a daily basis (e.g. Angry Metal Guy, Metal Trenches, No Clean Singing, Last Rites, Meat Mead Metal...- Zyklonius

Audeze LCD-2 Impressions Thread
My best of 2016 list includes a lot of stuff that meets your criteria (psychedelic, mind-altering, intensely grand and/or with vast emotional depth): https://ninecircles.co/2016/12/26/best-of-2016-zyklonius-list/ I'd single out The Morningside (should appeal to Opeth fans), 40 Watt Sun...- Zyklonius

Lets Talk Metal
Probably my favorite out-of-the-blue release so far this year. Wrote some flowery words about it:: https://ninecircles.co/2017/03/17/receiving-the-evcharist-aversio-humanitatis-and-smoke-on-the-porter-fire-in-the-rye/ EDIT: somehow the embedded player starts from the second song...
