I recommend the Hossam Ramzy "Sabla Tolo" album for everyone.
 
It WILL test your headphones, the percussion attack is fantastic. Timbre, speed, everything.

Nice! have you heard ZOX? Another great band in the area. That's a great album, but sonically, it doesn't strike me as amazing - what do you see in it?

"Moar Ghosts 'n' Stuff" by Deadmau5 (ALAC). Not the music I typically listen to but the door slam in the left channel at 00:35 is positioned exactly where my door is. It gives me goosebumps. 
 
If you have a door on your left about 3 meters from you then you HAVE to listen to this.

Bomfunk MC's - Super Electric.
 
I posted the song in the What Are You Listening To Right Now? -New thread a few days ago.
The track is eargasmic. It's probably even better if you can listen with Bass Boost.

Electrixx - Tetris
 
It's a fun, really bassy techno Tetris remix that I currently cannot get enough of hahaha.

Thanks for this one.  Bella Sonus was one of the best recorded albums I ever heard.

+1 on your profile pic, Bloodoath
 
And also a lot of DeadMou5 songs are good for breaking in headphones.

Im currently using the Klipsch Image S4's..
 
'Rage Against The Machine' is a great band to listen to with those IEM'S! Especially when the S4's have great bass!

Hmmm. Interesting thread. I've sort of made it into albums: If one song on an album is well produced, usually the rest is too.
 
Tom Waits: Mule Variations
Jacqueline du Pre's Dvorak Cello Concerto
All the Dead can Dance remasters
Dire Straits: Brothers in Arms
Eric Clapton: Unplugged
Hot Tuna: The Phosphorescent Rat
Porcupine Tree: In Absentia
