What bands sound better on vinyl?
Trynant:
I recently acquired a turntable and speakers that let me play awesome vinyls. Problem is, I'm not sure what sounds better analog and what bands record digitally/overcompress everything to the point where you might as well get an mp3 to enjoy the sound. So what are some bands that go the extra mile to make an album sound better on record as opposed to iTunes? I know that pretty much anything before mid-90s would have been recorded all analog, but as for modern bands I'm in the dark.
So what would y'all recommend? If musical tastes help, I'm more into indie rock stuff (Silkworm, Make Believe, etc.), punk and metal.
KvP:
This was recently covered on the last page of the "Where to Start?" thread.
Conclusions (that I read):
Shellac
Jay Reatard
Trynant:
Oh goddammit I asked the same fucking question in the Where to Start thread and I am an idiot for forgetting about it.
Sorry :(
Still, glad to know Shellac (which I was planning on) and Jay Reatard (which never occurred to me) are ones to look out for.

This doesn't really fall into the categories you mentioned but Beirut's first album, Gulag Orkestar, is probably my favorite recently recorded album on vinyl, basically because it sounds like it was recorded in a russian basement in 1917
Be My Head:
Black Flag. I have the reissued version of Damaged on vinyl, and it sounds much better than the CD.
