Pidesco Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 I bought an Mp3 player, today just to use at the gym, and I've been selecting good songs for working out from my library. However, I want more, more and more so I decided to do an internet search for songs to add to my list. Unfortunately, the internets is filled with ghastly, unhelpful advice which compelled me to appeal to your good and proper taste. Help a guy out. Here's a list of what I already, have, by the way. It's mostly fast and rocking with a few exceptions, which is what I'm looking for. 1. Amorphis - Against Widows (4:08) 2. Amorphis - On Rich And Poor (5:21) 3. Apocalyptica - Hall of the Mountain King (3:29) 4. Black Sabbath - War Pigs,Luke's Wall (7:58) 5. Brezhnev - She ain't horny, she's my sister (2:08) 6. Cradle Of Filth - Cruelty Brought Thee Orchids (7:18) 7. Cradle Of Filth - Lustmord And Wargasm (The Lick Of Carnivorous Winds) (7:30) 8. Eagles of Death Metal - I Want You So Hard (Boy's Bad News) (2:21) 9. Eagles of Death Metal - Don't Speak (I Came To Make A BANG!) (2:47) 10. Eagles Of Death Metal - Secret Plans (2:22) 11. Entombed - Chaos Breed (4:52) 12. Entombed - Carnal Leftovers (2:58) 13. Entombed - Out Of Hand (3:15) 14. Fant "My hovercraft is full of eels!" - Hungarian tourist I am Dan Quayle of the Romans. I want to tattoo a map of the Netherlands on my nether lands. Heja Sverige!! Everyone should cuffawkle more. The wrench is your friend.
Hildegard Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 This is my favorite when I go to my aerobics class
213374U Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 (edited) I mostly listen to the radio when at the gym... but it doesn't matter. I saw a video of some dude squatting 250kg with Rihanna playing on the background. Anyway, do you know of Millencolin? Edited August 6, 2009 by 213374U - When he is best, he is a little worse than a man, and when he is worst, he is little better than a beast.
theslug Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 This is my favorite when I go to my aerobics class Have you recently been the victim of blunt force trauma or undergone electroshock therapy? Or perhaps your taste in music always been this horrible? I don't normally listen to music when I work out but on occasion I will be inspired by such musical talents (and some not-talents) as sage francis, rise against, atmosphere, the killers, john mayer, blue october, circa survive, eminem, and many more. There was a time when I questioned the ability for the schizoid to ever experience genuine happiness, at the very least for a prolonged segment of time. I am no closer to finding the answer, however, it has become apparent that contentment is certainly a realizable goal. I find these results to be adequate, if not pleasing. Unfortunately, connection is another subject entirely. When one has sufficiently examined the mind and their emotional constructs, connection can be easily imitated. More data must be gleaned and further collated before a sufficient judgment can be reached.
Walsingham Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 What, no Fatboy Slim? Right here right now. "It wasn't lies. It was just... bull****"." -Elwood Blues tarna's dead; processing... complete. Disappointed by Universe. RIP Hades/Sand/etc. Here's hoping your next alt has a harp.
LadyCrimson Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 For a few months the only tune I listened to during aerobics was a slightly slowed down version of the Loituma song. “Things are as they are. Looking out into the universe at night, we make no comparisons between right and wrong stars, nor between well and badly arranged constellations.” – Alan Watts

Darth InSidious Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 This particularly rapid, unintelligible patter isn't generally heard, and if it is, it doesn't matter.
Slowtrain Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 I work out to a lot of Rancid, Flogging Molly, Social Distortion, Dropkick Murphy, The Bouncing Souls. Notice how I can belittle your beliefs without calling you names. It's a useful skill to have particularly where you aren't allowed to call people names. It's a mistake to get too drawn in/worked up. I mean it's not life or death, it's just two guys posting their thoughts on a message board. If it were personal or face to face all the usual restraints would be in place, and we would never have reached this place in the first place. Try to remember that.
Pidesco Posted August 6, 2009 Author Posted August 6, 2009 You lot are of very little help. The only ones with any proper suggestions have been numbers and CrashGirl.

Walsingham Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 You lot are of very little help. The only ones with any proper suggestions have been numbers and CrashGirl. WTF? Fatboy Slim is great for working out. *pout* "It wasn't lies. It was just... bull****"." -Elwood Blues tarna's dead; processing... complete. Disappointed by Universe.

Pidesco Posted August 6, 2009 Author Posted August 6, 2009 Well, perhaps if you had suggested Weapon of Choice. But even that is only good when Walken dances to it.

Slowtrain Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 It's hard to imagine Smoke on the Water as a workout song. Maybe Highway Star or Speed King. Or Woman from Tokyo. Metal Church did a pretty awesome cover of Highway Star many years ago. Notice how I can belittle your beliefs without calling you names.

GreasyDogMeat Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 (edited) I like to listen to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dqlQOt_eiQw while running in small circles. What, no Fatboy Slim? Right here right now. What a long strange journey its been. Can you blame the guy for wanting to rest at the end? LOL, I think they meant MILLION years ago instead of BILLION. We were kinda cute 250 Million (Er Billion according to video) years ago. Yeah, I just tried to correct a Fatboy Slim video... so sue me. Edited August 6, 2009 by GreasyDogMeat
Stephen Amber Posted August 7, 2009 Posted August 7, 2009 For weights I recommend Ronnie James Dio. Something off Holy Diver or Last in Line. Dio holds nothing back... neither should you.
I want teh kotor 3 Posted August 8, 2009 Posted August 8, 2009 I have a great aversion to all physical activity, so I'm not much help here, but I imagine Koji Kondo would be good as most of his stuff is upbeat, as would Tanaka. Or maybe I'm just a fanboy. In 7th grade, I teach the students how Chuck Norris took down the Roman Empire, so it is good that you are starting early on this curriculum. R.I.P.

LadyCrimson Posted August 11, 2009 Posted August 11, 2009 You lot are of very little help. The only ones with any proper suggestions have been numbers and CrashGirl. I always find it hard to suggest music since tastes are so varied. Plus, I don't exercise in a gym where such distraction might be needed. I combine the exercycle with TV or go outside and am inspired by scenery instead. “Things are as they are.

Darth Drabek Posted August 11, 2009 Posted August 11, 2009 You can't go wrong with all that NOFX on a workout mix. Nothing like punk rock drums to get the blood flowing. I had "The Decline" on my exercise bike mix back in the day, and I'd try to match the intensity of the song. That was 18 minutes of hard work. And here's a metal gem you might want to try: Racer X - Technical Difficulties Good luck! baby, take off your beret everyone's a critic and most people are DJs
Pidesco Posted August 11, 2009 Author Posted August 11, 2009 Drabek delivers! "My hovercraft is full of eels!" - Hungarian tourist I am Dan Quayle of the Romans. I want to tattoo a map of the Netherlands on my nether lands. Heja Sverige!! Everyone should cuffawkle more. The wrench is your friend.
Guest The Architect Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 Try these, Pixies ~ Alec Eiffel AC/DC ~ Back in Black The Verve ~ Bittersweet Symphony Pixies ~ Caribou Pink Floyd ~ Comfortably Numb Pixies ~ Debaser Kasabian ~ Empire Oasis ~ Falling Down Stone Roses ~ Fools Gold AC/DC ~ For Those About To Rock Bob Dylan ~ Hurricane Muse ~ Hysteria Muse ~ Knights of Cydonia Bob Dylan ~ Like a Rolling Stone Kasabian ~ LSF Muse ~ Supermassive Black Hole Pink Floyd ~ High Hopes Queen ~ We Are The Champions ZZ Top ~ Rough Boy Muse ~ Starlight Survivor ~ Eye of the Tiger Rolling Stones ~ Sympathy For The Devil The Beatles ~ Hey Jude Oasis ~ The Masterplan AC/DC ~ Thunderstruck Pink Floyd ~ Time Muse ~ Time Is Running Out Foo Fighters ~ Times Like These Pixies ~ Velouria Queen ~ We Will Rock You Haddaway ~ What Is Love Pixies ~ Where Is My Mind? Pixies ~ Winterlong Alabama 3 ~ Woke Up This Morning Oasis ~ Wonderwall Or die. You decide. I'd also recommend a version of the Foo Fighters Monkey Wrench song that's better than the "normal" version of it that's great for exercising, but I can't remember where the fark I got it from.
Baley Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 Mclusky, definitely. My Dad is bigger than your Dad, He's got eight cars and a house in Ireland - Sing it; My love is bigger than your love - Sing it; My love is bigger than your love - SING IT!! I actually sometimes sing that to myself when I go for a run without my cell phone. Future of the Left; Wrong-era Nomeansno; Against Me!; Bombs over Baghdad, Outkast; The Decline, NoFX. I kind of like running to Neutral Milk Hotel, but... yeah.
Pidesco Posted August 13, 2009 Author Posted August 13, 2009 Post more often, you horrible person. The movie thread in particular has been left to the philistine wolves. "My hovercraft is full of eels!" - Hungarian tourist I am Dan Quayle of the Romans. I want to tattoo a map of the Netherlands on my nether lands. Heja Sverige!! Everyone should cuffawkle more.

Baley Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 The Pogues are noticeably absent from your list. I'm not sure if I want to listen to you.
Rostere Posted August 16, 2009 Posted August 16, 2009 Neat, there's a lot of stoner in your list I like to listen to bands like Razor, Exodus and Exhorder when I go to the gym. "Well, overkill is my middle name. And my last name. And all of my other names as well!"
