Stephin Merritt – Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

“Merritt suffers from a hearing condition known as hyperacusis; any sound heard louder than normal begins to “feedback” in his left ear at increasingly louder volumes. This has largely influenced the reserved live setup of The Magnetic Fields, which usually consists of acoustic instruments and little to no percussion. Merritt also wears earplugs during performances, and typically covers his left ear if the audience applauds.”
