Hi! I'm a new member

I finally signed up after all those hours spent searching and reading here.
I've been looking around for a pair of over-ear headphones.
My budget ranges from 150-200$.
I mostly listen to:

1. Classic Rock (Led Zeppelin, Jimi Hendrix, AC/DC, The Doors, The Who)
2. Post Rock (Explosions in the Sky, Mogwai, 65daysofstatic, Sigur Ros, Mono)
3. Acoustics
4. Experimental (Mum, Crystal Castles, Germany Germany)

 
I think I'm looking for a headphone that is suitable for almost all genres. A lot recommended Grado since Rock music is what I almost listen to. Keep in mind that I wear glasses, and Grado (from what I've read) are uncomfortable.
I need a closed, comfortable, and portable headphone that doesn't need an amp.
 
I did read a lot of good reviews on Audio-Technica ATHM50. However, some were annoyed by its bass.
 
What do you guys think? I'm open for all suggestions of course.
Thanks!

Dang I'm in a similar boat, still trying to figure it out. From what I've read M50s, SRH880s, or Aviators are all good for this type of music, but they all seem to sound different depending on who reviews them. =/
 
Did you have any luck, Mimcia?

Look at California Headphones. They are tuned for classic rock.
