not an expert at all but i'd go for a camera with a dedicated mic input, and a separate stereo microphone. I don't think onboard microphones are supposed to handle bass.

My old(ish) Canon Ixus 85 handles high sound levels really well. I was quite surprised first time I got back from a club and could actually hear music instead of distortion.
