Workout Music

I don't use an MP3 player at the gym, but when I worked out at home the following always stirred my blood:

Now, at home I am more likely to listen to this type music:

Varies, but I've had Them Crooked Vultures in heavy rotation lately. Sometimes I just prefer silence.

 

I like silence. Unfortunately, I have to have something to drown out the crap the gym blares over the sound system, so my iPod comes with me.

Usually it's some kind of metal or rap. Stuff like Acid Bath, Crowbar, 4-Ize, Ice Cube. It depends on how I feel.

 

I prefer silence. Here lately at the gym there has been a lot of 90s fad hiphop being played. It's enough to make one consider suicide. But now that my power rack is here, once I get my workout area ready to roll and quit having to go to the gym, I will workout with nothing but the sound of my awesomeness.

 

Been listening to Dope lately.

Also use:

Fear Factory
Fu Manchu
Static X
As I Lay Dying
Eye Hate God
Age of Ruin
Monster Magnet
Corrosion of Conformity
Metallica (1st 3 albums)

 

I like the Fu Manchu

 

Nice.

 

If you like Eyehategod, check out Acid Bath, Crowbar and Soilent Green; they're also from that same NOLA sludge metal scene.

 

My partial workout playlist:

Welcome to the Jungle
Tom Sawyer
Smoke on the Water
Smells like teen spirit
Runnin' with the Devil
Rock and Roll All Night
Come on feel the noise
Photograph
One
More Human Than Human
Higher Ground
Eye of the Tiger
Everlong
Epic
Enter Sandman
Dragula
Bring me to life
Black Hole Sun

My psych-up for 20-rep squats is always Eye of the Tiger.

I need a few more workout playlists.

 

Turbo, your somewhat retro playlist reminds me of when we went to the football playoffs in 86. The coaches made the players get to the school 3-4 hours early for the Saturday game and played Rocky 4. I think the defense had blood in their eyes after that, LOL. 17 year olds...

 

One of the few bands that I have every album.

 

Forgot about White Zombie/Rob Zombie

Outstanding workout music. Some of the best.

Last of his I got was Educated Horses and its great.

 

Sometimes the sludge fires up a lil rage in me.

 

A lot of Linkin Park-'specially on cardio sessions.
Megadeth.
SlipKnot.
Black Sabbath/Dio
Tool
......and a rather healthy portion of Iron Maiden's "Live After Death"
'tallica.
Beastie Boys -all of LtI.
Pantera (Walk, Cowboys from hell).

Dan, your last one makes me want a frozen mocha from Pantera Bread that's about 2 min. from my place...

 

I'm more old school than new school.

Did you hear about the 13 year old kid (in 7th or 8th grade) who just signed a verbal commitment - non-binding, of course - to play football at USC? Hasn't played one high school game yet. SHEESH.

 

I love sludge metal. I like some black metal, too; stuff like Gorgoroth and Emperor and Nordicwinter.

Yeah. Lane Kiffin's either a dumbass or a genius. I'm leaning towards the former.

 

If it was binding, I'd say that was incredibly stupid. Still pretty silly IMO, but I don't really keep up with sports enough to know. I have only watched a couple of sporting events in this century.

 

I've been listening to In Flames quite a bit lately.

I think they are considered melodic metal.

Thats one thing I love about Fear Factory, Burton can cover every base with growls and can really belt out some melodic vocals.
