What music pumps you up?

[trasmi21]

Music motivates me in the gym more than anything. Let's hear some good some good songs to workout too.

Mine are currently:

Foo Fighters - Best of You (I love it this song)

Any kind of Korn will get me going...

System of a Down will work too..


What else?

[.maximum.]

+1 on the SOAD
Foo fighters works well...
Rage against the Machine for cardio sessions :-)

[IdaMAN]

I was at the gym the other day and they were playing sappy song after sappy song. I was looking around to see if anyone else noticed this and no one seemed to care. Why the hell wants to work out to a bunch of chic songs that are depressing or slow? I almost went and complained lol.

I completely agree, although I used to do a lot of my baseball workouts at this one place that had the same song on repeat for the whole hour and a half you would be there. Needless to say it got annoying.

How could I forget Rage Against the Machine?

[PhilsterT]

That sounds like my gym. Mieko's is the complete pansy-assed-music gym. Same girly emo all day long.

"OH! Don't break my heart dear...OH!"

[ilankaplan1]

death metal

[jkirkpatrick]

death metal
Absolutely. Dimmu Borgir is great, Seinbenburgen too.

But the best is still viking metal - Amon Amarth! :thumbup:

[RickTheDestroyer]

I've said it once, and I'll say it again...
nothing gets me pumped quite like this. (http://www.zipmall.com/teach-kids/potty.htm)

I highly recommend the soundtrack to anyone who's lacking motivation in the gym.

[TwiloMike]

House. Hard, progressive, tribal house (New York style).

[drew]

#1 Silverchair
#2 Metalica

[sharkall2003]

I think I have the best list here, Deftones, Metallica, System of a Down, Cradle of Filth, Mudvayne, Slipknot, Korn, Drowning Pool, Godsmack, Fear Factory, Hatebreed, Korn, Lamb of God, Limp Bizkit, Megadeath, Mushroomhead, Murderdolls, Pantera, Papa Roach, Powerman 5000, Rammstein, Rob Zombie, Shadows Fall, Shattersphere, Slayer, Smashing Pumpkins, Static-X,

:bow:

Wow, I gotta agree. I hate that ****.

If you listen to that stuff, and you think you're a guy, you're not.

[biggimp]

dope, eminem, tech n9ne, any death metal.

that said, i give this thread another couple hours before its locked.

[Gutz981]

Some country...anyone else listen to this or am I just weird?

[IdaMAN]

Some country...anyone else listen to this or am I just weird?


Do we have to answer that honestly? lol.

I am not trying to diss other music, but I just can't see myself getting pumped listening to Achy Breaky Heart haha.

[Gutz981]

Lonestar...Ehhhhh If ya don't like it not alot of people do...I understand that. But its teh rap that pisses me off

[tholian8]

Lonestar's fun to listen to in the car, don't think it would work for me in the gym though. I like metal and rap for workouts, although I do get turned off by misogynistic lyrics so I sometimes have to tune some stuff out when they play it at the gym. :rolleyes:

[D Breyer]

I think I have the best list here, Deftones, Metallica, System of a Down, Cradle of Filth, Mudvayne, Slipknot, Korn, Drowning Pool, Godsmack, Fear Factory, Hatebreed, Korn, Lamb of God, Limp Bizkit, Megadeath, Mushroomhead, Murderdolls, Pantera, Papa Roach, Powerman 5000, Rammstein, Rob Zombie, Shadows Fall, Shattersphere, Slayer, Smashing Pumpkins, Static-X,
:withstupi you pretty much nailed it with all those... just about every one of those bands are in my ipod ATM... my favorites would probably be hatebreed and static-x... with mudvayne and korn a close second

[sharkall2003]

:withstupi you pretty much nailed it with all those... just about every one of those bands are in my ipod ATM... my favorites would probably be hatebreed and static-x... with mudvayne and korn a close second
Finally someone else listens to good music. I sing that **** in my head when I cycling home from a friends house. I swear people must just think I am crazy.

[khalid05]

Hiphop, gangsta rap, and alternative.

On my weightroom playlist I got alot of Tupac, Snoop Dogg, NWA, DMX, Wutang, Slim thug, 50 cent, Linkin Park, Paparoach, maroon 5 and some other stuff.

[Shao-LiN]

Whatever gets my head bopping.

[big ol' boy]

i listen to Texas Country. A lot of you probably don't know what that is but we got our own style of music down here. It's a whole lot more rock than that Nashville bull****.

Other than that I listen to all the bands that sharkall posted. Except you forgot AC/DC.

[Nito]

50cent, Lil John...hip hop generally

[jkirkpatrick]

Viking metal (http://www.amonamarth.com/video.html)

This will get you pumped. You want the first video, Death in Fire.

:thumbup:

#3 - Sepultura (MAXing music)
#4 - System of a Down

:thumbup:

As tired as I am of these threads- hence my "it's potty time" reference, I have to say that I checked these guys out and thoroughly enjoy them.

I guess now I have another reason to be proud that my ancestors rode around in boats and burned villages, ****ed **** up, and raped my other ancestors.
:ninja:

[userName-pLump]

ah can't believe nobody posted this yet, but Survivor-Eye Of The Tiger from Rocky

[IdaMAN]

I'd prolly end up laughing half way through that song if I was working out and it came on.

[BigEasy]

Slayer
Metallica
Megadeth
Rammstein
Anything fast, heavy, aggressive, or all three. :cool:

[Hatred]

Mushroomhead.
Pantera.
Hard House.
Drum n bass.

[Ignoramus]

Dont forget about Godsmack guys!...oh someone posted that already. In that case Dream Theater

[-TIM-]

I was at the gym the other day and they were playing sappy song after sappy song. I was looking around to see if anyone else noticed this and no one seemed to care. Why the hell wants to work out to a bunch of chic songs that are depressing or slow? I almost went and complained lol.I was at the gym the other day and I had to listen to Pieces of Me by Ashlee "Ass Face" Simpson and a bunch of other pop garbage. I complained and the front desk girl said they were only allowed to play two stations. They both suck by the way. I asked if there was a suggestion box. She said it was in the woman's locker room. Turned out to be my lucky day :D

[Guido]

Sepultura, Wumpscut, Chemlab, Fear Factory, Front Line Assembly, Morbid Angel, God Module, old Metallica, Megadeth, Korn, Sevendust, MDFMK, Tool, Haujobb, Cruciform Injection, Atari Teenage Riot, Debbie Gibson, Controlled Bleeding, Excessive Force, Exilination, Noisex, Pantera, Stromkern, Suicide Commando, VNV Nation, Terminal Choice, Einsterzende Neubauten, Ministry

[TOBART]

Wutang & any of their side projects, Social Distortion (takes me back to the days of being a pissed off teenager). I highly recommend Gwen Stefani's Holla Back Girl for doing squats, it seems to have magical powers.

[BG5150]

Here WAS my iPod workout (before it was stolen!)...I'll get one again, soon..:

[CarlP]

Sepultura, Wumpscut, Chemlab, Fear Factory, Front Line Assembly, Morbid Angel, God Module, old Metallica, Megadeth, Korn, Sevendust, MDFMK, Tool, Haujobb, Cruciform Injection, Atari Teenage Riot, Debbie Gibson, Controlled Bleeding, Excessive Force, Exilination, Noisex, Pantera, Stromkern, Suicide Commando, VNV Nation, Terminal Choice, Einsterzende Neubauten, Ministry

Debbie Gibson? Someone needs to kick your ass.

[Guido]

Debbie Gibson? Someone needs to kick your ass.
Ha! I was wondering if someone would catch that. ;)

[Canadian Crippler]

Disturbed. Xzibit.

[Gyno Rhino]

Search and you'll find lots lots lots of stuff about this subject.

[LAandBack]

Have you guys heard of Avenged SevenFold?? No one put them on their lists. You guys need to check them out. I also don't think anyone listed A perfect Circle or Thrice.

[jed]

Your also all missing one of the best bands of all time: Guns and Roses. GnR gets me pumped so do a few other songs i guess.

[Vitalize]

Yeah I really like Disturbed's "Down with the sickness" album.
Also Euro trance gets me pumped, and a nice bit of chillout on the way back from the gym.

[RickTheDestroyer]

Your also all missing one of the best bands of all time: Guns and Roses. GnR gets me pumped so do a few other songs i guess.

Has GNR even put out an album since you were born?

I'm just hassling you- I love them, but they're not my first choice for lifting. However, they do play them sometimes on gym radio stations, so in that case it's the best you'll get.

[jed]

Yeah they haven't and i'm cool with that. Their making a new one called Chinese Democracy but i'm sure I wont like that because it's not really even GnR anymore... just Axl and some guys. Slash and Duff and like 2 other guys are in Velvet Revolver now, and their one of my favorite bands too.

[MasterOfPuppets]

Metal
Hard rock

That's all I need. :evillaugh

MOP

[nejar462]

I like pretty much every band listed on this thread. I also like Linkin Park. But apparently from a previous thread I'm the only person on this site that does ;)

[Mission]

Am I the only one who likes to listen to talk radio while working out? Either that or some good rock like Led Zeppelin.

[jed]

I like pretty much every band listed on this thread. I also like Linkin Park. But apparently from a previous thread I'm the only person on this site that does ;)

i like LP their pretty cool, i dont like their new remix one very well but i like their others.

[BG5150]

Spoonman by Soundgarden just makes me want to break stuff up. I don't know why, but that song gets me going...

Talk radio? Not while I'm lifting, but usually most of the rest of the day. I usually listen to the conservative stuff (Rush, Hannity, Ingram (I LOVE her!), Levin, Drudge, etc), but I do listen to "All Things Considered" and "Morning Edition" a lot--they aren't as liberal as CNN or CBS. I sometimes listen to AirAmerica to see what the other side is doing. Usually I do the latter thru iTunes.

Anyone ever use the iTunes radio function? There's a lot of great stuff there. Even a comedy station that's hilarious. (I think I'll switch to that now.)

Maybe I should listen to AirAmerica while I'm lifting. Some of the crap them liberals say really get me going!

[Pjsb]

Pretty much any metal with bone shattering breakdowns gets me goin. Prayer for a Cleansing, Lamb of God, and Unearth are on my mp3 player right now... Unearth and Lamby are a must.. I want to skin baby seals by the 2nd set of my workout.

[BossHawg02]

Metal,some house music,or some southern rock, I'm down with the zeppelin, and maybe some Stevie Ray vaughan....

[Bob]

Dang I'm old...
AC/DC.. Triumph.. Rolling Stones... The Fixx... The Clash... Bruce Springsteen..

[Narcissus]

hard trance or house.

[ReturnedFire]

two songs in particular pump me up:

Refused - New Noise
SOAD - Soil

:cool:

[HighExpectation]

the blackeyed peas!

[Antonious]

Van Halen/ some yes/rush/boston

[galileo]

The search function pumps me up!

[SteveEU]

Slayer...all day long!
Some band called Enemy Unknown...lol!

[Intensity&Focus]

Death metal usually gets you mentally pumped, i dont know about any of the soft rock or even hardcore rap, sure it might be nice to listen to but i dont know if that would get you mentally pumped. For you guys out there that love your music and use it to motivate you while your at the gym try a few of these songs and get back to me and tell me what you think..
if you havent seen this movie yet, watch it, then get "the battle" song from the movie gladiator...i dont know how to categorize this, but trust me, this **** works..its kind of classical ish..but its heavy at the same time!
Mortal kombat theme music (the original) and alot of other techno beats are really good too, depending on the beat of techno songs, you can also use the beat as a timer for a repitition, its amazing to keep you moving

Intensity is a huge factor when training and depending on what kind, music really helps!

[The Great]

Korn, Rob Zombie, Marilyn Manson, Seven Dust, old school Metallica and anything else that is loud and angry.

Oh, and at the risk of being laughed at some times The Cranberries.

[SW]

anything that is loud and angry.

:evillaugh

[FortifiedIron]

Metal.. of all kinds (Death, Core, Black etc)

Soilworks
In Flames
Kalmah
Shodows Fall
Trivium

Anything hard and heavy!

Kc

[Invain]

Few guys had pretty much the same list as me -

Pantera, Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer, Kalhma, Symphony X, Korn, Danzig, Slipknot, Alice in Chains, ACDC, GNR, Black Label Society, Dream Theater, Dimmu Borgir, Iced Earth, Disturbed, Skynard, Rammstein, In Flames, Godsmack, I'm sure there's more I missed.

[samj]

you Americans listen to some dodgy music only mosha's and ******s listen to in England get some hardcore eg. scott brown etc

[Invain]

you Americans listen to some dodgy music only mosha's and ******s listen to in England get some hardcore eg. scott brown etc

Haha, you think our music is dodgy eh? Whatever that meens in british lingo...

On another note, I'd rather kill myself than listen some rock band with a bad enlgish accent.

[bschatz88]

The search function pumps me up!


:nod:

[kad]

Whatever the gym is playing, since I don't have an iPod. Sometimes it's good, sometimes it isn't. I went in one Saturday morning a while back and the music was turned off. That pissed me off. It sucks doing squats listening to nothing.

[getfit]

my nieces baby tunes pumps me up :p

[Rock]

GetFits new avatar pumps me up, somebody hooold me back hehe:)

AC/DC,Kiss,thin lizzy that stuff pumps me mad stylin at hitting weights at high demand

[Kayo]

Old School Hip Hop...no preppy crap

[Praetorian]

uhhm bop - hanson
stronger - britney spears
and anything with N*sync

[samj]

On another note, I'd rather kill myself than listen some rock band with a bad enlgish accent.

since when is hardcore a rockband? bad English accent hmmmm American accident isnt annoying is it and for a rock band how can ye beat Oasis.

[samj]

accent*

[squat it all!]

anything from pantera, especially "mouth for war", "walk", and "cowboys from hell".

[accuFLEX]

Why dont we juts sticky this so people will stop making new posts?

anyway, ill listen to almost anything at the gym from metal to pop, i really dont care what. I can pump up myself, i dont need music to help me, although it does help

[Intensity&Focus]

If you havent heard this song before...its a must download. I cant stop listening to it on my last 2 heavy sets of compound exercises.
Rob Dougan- Clubbed to death

[Clifford Gillmore]

You sure you don't wan't some slayer going? Absolutely positive? Really? Sure?

[Fenrir]

Death metal, anything with a good beat. One thing that always annoys me is the radio! I go after school and there's always this radio station on that at that time has some comedy act. The last thing i want to be doing while holding a bar loaded with heavy weights above my head is laughing. I try to just ignore it and think of something that will pump me up, like angry thoughts.

[MJC097]

I cant believe it took until page 3 (unless I missed it) for someone to mention AC/DC. All I know is whenever I hear the song thunderstuck I instantly want to squat a plate more than I am capable of because it gets me that pumped up

[p0tential]

Anything Anne Murray. Sometimes I go a little crazy and listen to a Bette Midler medley on my hot pink IPod.

[James510]

rap and the band Disturbed

[BG5150]

If you havent heard this song before...its a must download. I cant stop listening to it on my last 2 heavy sets of compound exercises.
Rob Dougan- Clubbed to death

Pop Will Eat Itself
AC DC
Van Halen
Jesus Jones
Megadeth

[SW]

Disturbed, Manson...anything MEAN.

[razorcut]

"SHAKE THAT"

Eminem finally has a song out that's worth a **** that's not about his daughter or estranged wife. Actually, it's Nate Dogg that makes the song worthwhile. Get ready, it's gonna be on the radio every day for about the next four months.

[Nickthebassist]

Pantera.

[Nickthebassist]

Ditto.

[hoser813]

disturbed is my favorite stuff to listen to. Its got good, loud beats and agressive tempo and yet isnt full of screaming like other heavy metal screamer bands.

[Keith]

I cant stress on how much they make me wanna push ANY amount of weight at ANY time im listening to these songs. I HIGHLY suggest you get all these songs to listen to while working out. Although some of these songs may not be your type, im sure at least one will be. Enjoy!

[Haaji Dont Surf]

Some country...anyone else listen to this or am I just weird?
I love me my country music.

[getfit]

Dolly Parton :D

[CrazyK]

Old school Metallica, POD, Tupac, and some 1 hit wonders get me going.

[Haaji Dont Surf]

Dolly Parton :D
Hell yeah, Dolly Parton gets me in the mood to rip the whole gym up out of the ground and squat that sucker!! :evillaugh

[Jimmything08]

Haste the Day
Atreyu
Story of The Year
Silverstein
As Cities Burn
Rage Against The Machine
Emery

[seK]

I usually like to listen to Van Halen - Eruption on the way to the gym.

At the gym anything with a good riff is alright.

[Canadian Crippler]

St. Anger, although not a good album, is quite good for lifting.

[Sidior]

rage
death from above
slipknot

[Haaji Dont Surf]

You clearly have never heard more then three Eminem songs
Have to agree on this.. Eminem is awesome stuff.

[getfit]

Hell yeah, Dolly Parton gets me in the mood to rip the whole gym up out of the ground and squat that sucker!! :evillaugh
really, Kenny Rodgers does it for me :p

[PoutineEh]

pump up music genres: punk, ska, and a tiny tiny bit of hardcore influence (i cant stand hardcore music all the time, it just sounds like screaming).

ie the suicide machines, NoFX, some Big D & the Kids Table, recently a few Saves The Day songs.

if interested in seeing/listening to the one song that i listen to when i need to do a huge lift, i give you the suicide machines - war profiteering is killing us all:
http://www.suicide-machines.com/war_profiteering.wmv
they are a ska (http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=ska)(horns etc.) punk band with some hardcore in there sometimes (which is what the song i posted has). enjoy it!

if you dont feel like having that song d/l, just go straight to their website and listen to another song by them that plays in the background of the site:
http://www.suicide-machines.com/

[sharkall2003]

Lately when I have started to weightlift I have been listening to just some 80's rock. I don't know why but I just love the music. I also like listening to just high-beat music.

[fixationdarknes]

TECHNO!!!

or death metal :)

http://www.nuclearblast.de/news/newsjune04/inflames.jpg

[Clifford Gillmore]

Metalcore has been doing it for me lately, It Dies Today, Shadows Fall etc. etc.

http://www.merchnow.com/_featured/shads.jpg

[seK]

If all else fails you can just listen to the music played at the gym... such great hits as "pump up the volume" and "Celine Deon's greatest hits"

[sharkall2003]

Damn, sucks to be you. The gym at our school plays Metallica, Limp Bizkit and other "rock."

[EmericaBadBoy]

Its raining men!!!!!

[DM1]

Hatebreed, rammstein, deathstars, pantera, slayer, metallica, ac/dc

[Fenbay]

I'm trying to put together some WORKOUT music that is nothing but hardcore to keep the intensity going at the gym. Here's a couple examples of stuff I like and I think fits into that category.

Lose Yourself - Eminem
Let The Bodies Hit the Floor - Drowning Pool
Killing In the Name - Rage Against the Machine

Other suggestions in-line with the above type stuff?

Thanks!

[Unholy]

The RZA - Fatal (My favorite lifting song)

[BG5150]

Eminem is "hard core"?

[Lones Green]

my friends band, check em out:

www.myspace.com/whitechapelmetal

[Fenbay]

Lose Yourself is. From a beat/workout perspective.

[Unholy]

Lose Yourself is. From a beat/workout perspective.

I agree.

[Keith]

Slipknot
System of a down
Alexisonfire
Deftones
Disturbed
Metallica
Godsmack

[jAy_Dub]

I havent heard deftones in awhile. What are their better songs?

[Titanium_Jim]

I havent heard deftones in awhile. What are their better songs?

Passenger, My Own Summer (shove it), Be Quiet and Drive, Digital Bath

[Titanium_Jim]

For me, probably the most perfect song for lifting is Atreyu - Lip Gloss and Black. The chorus starts out, "Aren't you tired of being weak?"

I also really like Bat Country by Avenged Sevenfold, Jesus Built My Hot Rod by Ministry, More Human than Human by White Zombie, Walk by Pantera, I Shot Lucifer by Bionic Jive, the Deftones songs I listed, a number of System of a Down songs, Tall Cans in the Air by Transplants, and other rowdy songs.

All (okay most) of Tupac's All Eyez on Me makes me feel immortal for some reason. Probably because of all the references to surviving the five gunshots.

[Unholy]

Pshh RZA's Fatal Starts off with "I walk around with the strength of a hundred men"

[Chubrock]

For me, probably the most perfect song for lifting is Atreyu - Lip Gloss and Black. The chorus starts out, "Aren't you tired of being weak?"

.

Their cover of "Shot Through the Heart" is absolutely amazing.


Listen to some Norma Jean, UnderOath, Between the Buried and Me and Emery. That's all you need.

[Wendy21]

You might laugh when I tell you this but The Black Eyed Peas have some great songs that really get you amped up. It works for me!!!

I'll post a further explanation since some of you were kind enough to follow the guidelines and question the thread closure via PM.

A search on this topic pulls up over 100 threads. There is no reason to make a new thread on this subject every week. You can easily bump and old thread and add on to it. Some of you said, but new music comes out all the time. That is true, but 99% percent of the response are the same bands and songs. Feel free to continue your discussion here.

[Herandi]

rage against the machine definitely get you pumped

[Unholy]

Thanks CP.

Fort Minor - Not sure what the song is called but it goes like.

5% pleasure, 50% Pain, and a 100% reason to remember the name. Its good before the gym imo.

[DeHartD]

the temptations really rev my engine

[tomv]

Megadeth - Skin O My Teeth

Freakin love that song, just for the growling vocals and the awesome music. There's one line in it:
"No escaping pain, you belong to me!"
That's my mantra when I deadlift haha.

[Keith]

Thanks CP.

[SW]

[Altephor]

It depends on what kind of pumped you mean.

If I'm angry, a little Disturbed or Static-X can really light up my rage nicely.

If I'm in a good mood some upbeat rap music can get me really psyched and what not.

[WBBIRL]

Damn... what about the classics?

Clapton, Bad Company, Foreigner, .38 Special, Twisted Sister, Van Halen, Def Leopard, GnR, AC/DC, Bon Jovi, Cheap Trick, Kiss, Led Zepplin, Metallica, Pink Floyd, Poison, Queen, RHCP, REO Speedwagon, Supertramp, Steve Miller Band, Styx, Steppenwolf, The Rolling Stones, Thin Lizzy, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers,

If u workout with headphones on listening to music, what is ur favorite song to workout to?

[berfles]

I don't have favorite songs, but anything metal is always good.

[Keith]

Dear god there's been a ton of threads on this. Do a search, you'll find tones. I swear I've contributed to everyone of them too.

[tomv]

Should've made this thread in General Chat mate, there are quite a few more like it in there. I work out for about an hour - hour and a half at a time so one song doesn't cover it. I generally enjoy any aggressive music such as gangster rap or metal.

[BigDanny817]

k my fault

[Chickenlegs]

Drowning Pool--Bodies:nod:

[KoolDrew]

I don't have favorite songs, but anything metal is always good.

I'm not even a fan of metal, but I admit it gets me pumped for a workout.

[leveque]

pantera

[Led Head]

:withstupi:

Pantera - Cowboys From Hell

or

Rage Against The Machine - Guerilla Radio

i agree metal songs seem to pump you up the best while workin out

[suprfast]

Heavy metal is the best

Fear Factory or Lamb of God

Im actually listening to "Walk with me in hell" and "Again we rise" right now(both by lamb of god)
LOG is not for everyone, its really dark. It keeps me in the heavy weight mood.
kris

[piff]

Children of Bodom - Everytime I Die (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tjZpqgeiGFQ)

It's hard to pick a "favorite song" but this track definitely gets me pumped to squat and deadlift

[Bako Lifter]

Oh go - the pack

Gotta hit that bitch, OH GO!

- or -

Realist killaz

by tupac and 50

[Lones Green]

Hatebreed - Live for this

[Keith]

Hatebreed - Live for this

Only quality song in this thread.

I could write a huge list in here, but I'm lazy and I know it's sitting in the other threads on this topic.. I am tempted, though.

[drew]

Anything that you could irish stepdance to, or at least that has bagpipes in it. Also anything by Enya, Yani, or any other folk artist with a "Y" in their name.

[Scooter]

yes! bagpipes have increased my squat by 10 lbs

[rico0101]

Every workout I listen to the same album -

Dagoba - Dagoba(Self titled).

french metal band.
This was their first album and it just blew me away.

Best thing was, when the released their second album, my band got to support them on a mini tour.

Hell Yeah!!!!!!!!!!

[growthrep]

I will always love you

Desperado

Kiss me
















But seriously now, lol, I like this new song "Paralyzer" a lot. Don't know who sings it. Alaso love Nirvana's Smells Like Teen Spirit and Metallica's Sandman.

[Invain]

Children of Bodom - Everytime I Die (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tjZpqgeiGFQ)

Man I'm so sick of bands like this.

I really like the music, and then the singer has to come in and absolutely ruin it. I'd actually really like this song if it was just a music track without crap ass growling.

[Invain]

Paralyzer is by Finger Eleven.

Serisuly thogh this thread has been wayyyyy too many times and isn't even in the right section.

[BG5150]

Electric Youth--Debbie Gibson

[berfles]

Man I'm so sick of bands like this.

I feel the exact same way. It takes me so long to find a new band I like because the vocals ruin it.

[Keith]

Fergie- Big girls don't cry

[Magilla]

Abba-Dancing Queen....


and AC/DC, Foghat, or anything along that genre....

[Whoshot]

any Rammstein song...

[Shouji]

A little bit of Chopin..

[Big-E]

Stronger by Kanye West

[BG5150]

A little bit of Chopin..

What about a "little bit of Monica..."?

Seriously, why is this thread still in the lifting section or even locked?

[Cirino83]

Couldn't have said it better myself. I'm not much a fan of metal to begin with, but the 'music' part of the song sounded pretty good, then he starts to sing and I wanted to punch myself in the dick.

[brihead301]

I don't have favorite songs, but anything metal is always good.

:withstupi:

Especially COB, Pantera, and Arch Enemy

[Invain]

There hasn't been any good new metal in quite a while now. Nobody freaking sings anymore, it's so pathetic. There's quite a few bands with decent music around but they all either scream or growl like they got shot in the throat. There's a few faster metalish' bands that are still decent like DragonForce or Symphony X, but it's still very rare to find somebody with actual vocal talent.

[berfles]

Mmm, Symphony X.

[piff]

It may take some getting used to but I think CoB's vocals are great. A band like Hatebreed, on the other hand... well, let's just say I understand how you feel about 'crap ass growling'

[Rusty Jones]

Motorhead

[yankeekd25]

But seriously now, lol, I like this new song "Paralyzer" a lot. Don't know who sings it. Alaso love Nirvana's Smells Like Teen Spirit and Metallica's Sandman.

Those 3 are songs I always listen to when I'm lifting. Dragonforce's Through the Fire and Flames is the perfect song to bench or do cardio to, especially when the solos kick in. One by Metallica kicks ass too.

[Guitar90]

Motograter, or Shinedown.

[krboyd7]

Hearts on fire (Rocky)

[BigDanny817]

Fire Garden Suite by Steve vai

[cphafner]

If u workout with headphones on listening to music, what is ur favorite song to workout to?

Merged and moved to the right forum. This topic has been done many times. Please use the search next time.

[Shox21]

Any music that gets me in that 'pissed off' mood seems to get me pumped.

[growthrep]

Hit a DL PR this morning with Bon Jovi's "Livin' on a Praire" blasting. Good stuff.

[piff]

:withstupi:

Especially COB, Pantera, and Arch Enemy

Arch Enemy is sick and their female vocalist is out of this world

[Vicioustorms]

any trance music and yeah Arch Enemy are awesome....also People=Sh1t by Slipknot is good to workout to.

[jdeity]

I think it's just called 'hardcore', maybe hardcore rock, but stuff like give up the ghost is my current favorite for lifting.

[whiteman90909]

Tubthumping---Chumbawamba

Listen to it. Its like my mantra.

[BG5150]

Hit a DL PR this morning with Bon Jovi's "Livin' on a Praire" blasting. Good stuff.

"Prayer"

[-Superman-]

Europe - Final Countdown

[Max Thunder]

Lordi - Hardrock Hallelujah

[bigred1974]

eye of the tiger by frank stallone. I drink raw egg shakes to it.

[Jess21]

Meshuggah pumps me up while lifting more than any other band so far. I recommend it to anyone.

[VikingWarlord]

New Millenium Cyanide Christ is in my workout playlist.

Some of the responses to this thread are funny as hell. It makes me wonder who's serious and who's not.

[yankeekd25]

Killswitch Engage- Eye of the Storm and My Curse. All That Remains is pretty good. Anything from Slipknot. Dimmu Borgir. A lot of good hardcore rock gets me pumped.

Heaviest metal song to ever grace this planet, from the solo on its BRUTALITY!

[Jess21]

I agree, this song will pump you up in the gym big time!

[VikingWarlord]

I dunno about NMCC being the heaviest song. That may, in fact, go to DNR or Legions Of The Dead by Testament. Both of those are absolutely brutal.

Here's a screen shot of my gym playlist. This should answer some questions...muhuhahahaha

[yankeekd25]

Flesh Storm by Slayer is a song you must add to your playlist right now.

[VikingWarlord]

It might make it into the rotation. I change that list every couple weeks.

[Vicioustorms]

At The Gates are awesome..Slaughter Of The Soul is a great album.

Mors Principium Est and Lamb Of God get me pumped for workouts.
