Try the beyerdynamic dt880, comparable to the dt770 but open backed. If a bit of sound leaking out is not a problem (recording or traveling) they are nicer to hear and more comfortable than the dt770. If for studio use on a budget you can't beat the Samson sr850 on quality for money. Nearly every professional studio in the world will have some of these.

Sounds like you are doing some damage to your ears.

15 minutes? This on repeat should get the punters on edge:

Clean up, set up, frets leveled, EMG pup. Go. Very nice! Ltd is Esp if I recall correctly. Decent quality.

Very good quality, many awesome finishes. Well made instruments. Secretly have a little GAS for a patriot.

Dead Kennedys version is best version. War Pigs! I like Black Sabbath but I love both the Faith No More and the Sacred Reich iteration.

Little Big are scoring high on innovative videos. Most of their modern stuff are real eye catchers. Story driven stuff like Rock-paper-scissors, Hypnodancer, even Faradenza, to plain weird Go Bananas, Uno and Tacos. Well worth a watch!

So the Scorpions are out then? And Gogol Bordello? What about Die Antwoord or Jack Parow? Straya's Midnight Oil?

What's wrong with it? I thought people were paying extra for the road worn vintage look nowadays?

Uhhh I like death metal. Sooooo yeah...

Almost forgot! Madeleine Peyroux! A must If you like Billy Holiday.

Maybe not for everyone

Amended

Ministry and White Zombie. Their early 80s effort respectively being electro/wave and scratchy wannabe punk. Ministry found their feet somewhere between Twitch and Land of Rape and Honey.

I knew I had some more to add! Lovely young lass making very likeable videos

Humppa my friends! The kings of humppa are Elakelaiset from Finland. Please look for their many many renditions of your favourite tunes! A bit like, but not quite: https://www.humppa.com/en/

The thought entered my head that this is village therapy and the men are taking turns airing their grievances.

Some Russians. This deserves quality audio to bring out all the voices and harmonies.

A bit of dead can dance?

Just found this today:

Lidl: 2pack for under two quid. Dark day to spend all the effort and no results though!

I buy mine 144 at a time with the band logo on from in-tune GP. I use the large three-sided ones, takes about five years before I reorder.

Muscle tension and hearing loss are different causes of tinnitus, you guessed it, one can be relieved to some extent by manipulating/relaxing the muscles. That won't affect the hearing loss or genetically induced tinnitus. Countering or 'masking' the sound of your tinnitus can be a pleasant distraction. There are hearing aids that also produce a noise to drown out your own. As for the article, it's peculiar. I work in the audiology department of a university hospital where we do a lot of research. Generally speaking putting electricity to the tongue to stimulate the hearing centers in the brain is like expecting to switch on the telly to a Christmas special in July using your microwave. We all want a cure for tinnitus. Over 80% of people with hearing loss experience ringing, humming, whistling, knocking, buzzing and/or hissing with a good 40% of those describing their burden as 'severe suffering'. Results have been seen in electrical stimulation of parts of the brain called the floculus when trying to suppress the effects of Parkinson's disease. However much more trials and testing is needed to pin down the exact where/how/why/how much etc etc to determine reliable outcomes and predictable results. Also in these trials patients report loss of their sense of horizon, they no longer feel what 'level' is. We're getting closer but we're still some years out from an easy fix.
