Yeah, let me clarify my definition of 'modern': anything produced in
the past 12 years (or, 15 years at the max). This period coincides with
the Golden Age of the so-called Loudness War.

Most recent casualty: remasters of the Rolling Stones "Let It Bleed",
"Exile" and "Some Girls". Loudness War at its best, rendering the
entire albums virtually unlistenable (all you hear is constant blaring
noise coming out of speakers). Absolute lack of dynamics, the loudness
level remains identical no matter what song, or what part of the song
is playing.
