Running and workout music thread. What are your best tunes?

Hey everyone. I do a lot of running, and I'm getting sick of my current music selection.

My current playlist consists of The White Stripes, Electric Six, Daft Punk, Eve, and Dethklok. I love fast paced stuff, like metal, hard rock, and aggressive girl-power R&B -- stuff that makes me want to take on the world.

What about you all? What are your workout musical preferences, and do you have any recommendations.

    Chillstep.. It's like dubstep but more calm but still really good tempo!!!! Make a pandora station called chillstep

    Good suggestions. I've always been on the fence about Eminem, but those are two great songs.

    I'll look into chillstep. I prefer louder, faster-paced stuff for running, but chilstep might be good for yoga and weights.

    Just about anything by KIX. Red Light, Green Light or Live Wire are a couple that get the adrenaline going for me.

    The mobile Spotify app has a bunch of running stations, and it detects your pace to adjust the tempo of the music.

    Can't Hold Us - Macklemore & Ryan Lews <-- My absolute favorite running song. Thrift shop and white walls are good too though.
    Eminem has a lot of good ones. I love Cinderella Man
    Radioactive by Imagine Dragons (there's a remix version that's really good)

    Girls Not Grey - AFI
    A Favor House Atlantic - Coheed & Cambria
    Hit or Miss - New Found Glory

    Ever since college these have been my favorite/go-to sprint songs if I'm doing a HIIT workout on the treadmill.

    Infant Annihilator has probably the fastest drumming I've ever heard.
    Periphery is great!
    Miss May I's stuff before their recent album
    Within the Ruins before their recent album
    Animals as Leaders is also great :)

    Chill electronica infused with smooth singing is also great when lifting. I don't think it falls under chillstep, idk if there's a genre for it yet but I love it.

    I never used to but when I started I realized I should have started earlier. I always go a lot faster when I do.
