I'm on a mission to find new music...

Some of my favorite bands are

System Of A Down (Which may or may not be obvious by my username)
Alice In Chains
All That Remains
Nirvana
Marilyn Manson
John 5 (His "Beat It" cover is great to work out to)
Bullet For My Valentine
Children Of Bodom
Trivium
Coal Chamber

I have a few others, but I don't want a TL;DR post.

Just curious about what you listen to when you're working out.

    Anything with a fast tempo to keep me pumped! My daughter actually convinced me to try to work out to dubstep and it works!

    I like similar music myself. Rock/metal etc.
    Go listen to Gojira, they're an amazing band and their music is usually pretty fast.

    Nine Inch Nails, especially Downward Spiral or Pretty Hate Machine. Fast (mostly) and heavy. I also like to work out to With Teeth for personal reasons, but you may find that it'll help!

    It depends on what my mood is and what I'm doing :]

    If I'm lifting, then my music tends to be heavier and more metal-y, like Maximum the Hormone.
    If I'm doing cardio, I need something bright and happy to distract myself, like pop music or indiepop like MGMT.
    If I'm circuit training, anything goes!

    Dude, YES.
    Gojira - Vacuity is my strength training song, next to Tyler's Song by Coal Chamber


    Also, when I'm relaxing after a workout, I listen to Gone by Katatonia.. Peaceful.
