Rock and metal usually feature electric guitars, electric bass, percussion, keyboards (electronic, piano, or organ), and, of course, vocals. There can be many other instruments in the mix: think sax with Bruce Springsteen, flutes in Jethro Tull, or bagpipes in Korn. Vocals and lyrics also play a huge role in rock and metal, be they screaming vocals or more soulful or fun-sounding lyrics. You want a headphone that will bring out the best in your favorite singer's voice and won't let it get lost amid the instrumentation. When your headphone is well-matched to your music, it makes for a better listening experience. With these guidelines in mind, we've curated a list of what we consider to be our best headphones for rock music and heavy metal.
