Need Jogging Tunes.Does ANYONE share my tastes!?

kckBxer396

So, I have had the same music on my MP3 player for years. I need new music,but all of the suggestions I get are music that I can't stand. I want upbeat, fun, and spazzy. I need some suggestions based on what I like. I am going to give a few examples of what I like,and what I don't. Please, read them before posting. I like a lot of different genres and bands,but I am very specific about the ones that I do not like.

Typical for me:
Rancid
Social Distortion
Less Than Jake
Bruce Springsteen
Billy Joel
Linkin Park
Slipknot (original albums,and a few from the newer ones)
Mindless Self Indulgence
Retard-O-Bot
MXPX
The Distillers
Chevelle
Beastie Boys
Nick Miller and The Hustle Standard
Parlor Mob
Also, old school hip hop is kinda hit and miss...if you've got something cool, suggest it.

I Do NOT Enjoy:
Dubstep
Pop
Rap
New country (it sounds like pop to me)
Boy Bands
...or anything that combines any of these.

Really? Nobody? ...dang...

Seems like you're pretty sure what kind of music you want as a playlist already.

I know what I want, I just need new suggestions. I'm sick of hearing the same songs over and over and over again. I provided a guideline bc people usually suggest stuff like: eminem, p**sycat dolls, lmfao, brittney spears...and stuff like that. I just don't like it,and didn't want anyone to waste their time typing up a playlist that I wouldn't be able to appreciate receiving. haha

Audioslave. Rage Against the Machine.

My friend swears by working out to Lamb of God, also.

when I jog, I like to keep the music low- - so it doesn't overwhlem the natural noises around me.

Have you heard of Talvin Singh-?. Some of their songs have natural sounds in it, as well. It's a little different, but I enjoy it sometimes.

Go to ClickMix, and check their database. I made a great jogging playlist with the beat/speed I need to push myself.
After my FitBit, I'd say that was my second best fitness purchase ever.

RachelHoffman0709

Check out Pandora fitness stations. I usually set mine to 80's cardio and I'm good to go.

sithmuffin

Determined by Mudvayne and Warrior's Call by Volbeat really seem to help me get pumped. Actually, anything by Volbeat really. I hope that helps a bit. Good luck!

TXGirl821

I use RockMyRun.com to get mixes. There's all kinds of them, you might find one that fits your music tastes.

That's what I did before I found ClickMix. Worked great until I needed something faster!

kathyhull

try going to http://jog.fm/ - you can choose the speed you want to run and it recommends songs with the correct beats per minute - then you can narrow it down by genre or mix and match. I'm personally a classic rock all the way kind of girl but found that my Jimi Hendrix stuff was kind of slow for me. I've found all sorts of music that I like that I might never have heard on my classic rock station by letting this site choose my play list.

MizTerry

Add some Clay People (Awake), Rob Zombie (Dead City Radio), ANYTHING by Nickelback, Puddle of Mudd, AC/DC or Halestorm.

resistance_freak

Here's couple specific suggestions:

Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner - Iron Maiden
Party Hard - Andrew WK
Walk - Foo Fighters
Stronger - Kanye West
Mr. Brightside - The Killers
I Run for Life - Melissa Etheridge
Never Gonna Stop - Rob Zombie

Some of those titles might sound cheesy, but they work for me. Maybe they will for you or someone else too.

And for some more general suggestions, there are SO MANY Offspring, Green Day, and Foo Fighter songs that I find great for running with. Just listen to a few samples and pick one that has a BPM or a hook that you like and give it a try.

Lessthanpenguins

I tend to workout to a lot of the same with the addition of:

Five Finger Death Punch
Bullet for my Valentine
Disturbed.
Rise Against
Breaking Benjamin
Blackviel Brides
Alestorm (Pirate Heavy Metal. It makes me smile)
Flogging Molly
Dropkick Murphys.

geekman

Only a couple of songs but I always found that they had a good beat for walking, jogging to.

Body Rockers - I like the way you move
Nine Inch nails - Deep
Big Pig - Breakaway

theerachele

newcs

Just posting to follow this. Love LTJ & Coheed & Cambria so I'm interested in what other people post. Haven't listened to either of them in SO long though.

placeboaddiction

Typical for me:
Rancid/Social Distortion /Less Than Jake / try some street punk.. Crass, subhumans, exploited, or assorted Jelly beans
Linkin Park - Check out Rasmus. They are one of those awkward bands that fit in no where, but are a gem in themselves.
Slipknot (original albums,and a few from the newer ones)- Go with meshuggah or system of a down or something.
Mindless Self Indulgence - If you know them, maybe check out tight if you haven't already.
Retard-O-Bot - Maybe check out Neurosonic (suggest "so many people")
MXPX - try slickshoes, Screw 32, and Fenix TX.
Also, old school hip hop is kinda hit and miss...if you've got something cool, suggest it. -- Maybe check into xzibit paparazzi, or some ol slick rick. Love me some slick rick.

I understand you have an awesome eclectic taste in music, so you probably have heard of 90% of the bands I listed..

Just_Scott

Depends on pace--but a couple of thoughts

DJ Shocker and Chani--Party Rock Anthem Sexy and I know It

AC/DC just about damn song

Black Eyed Peas Boom Boom Pow

Rush Tom Sawyer

Iron Man

War Low Rider

Dio Hungry for Heaven(from the soundtrack Vision Quest) Also, Henley, Madonna, Red Rider, Journey from same soundtrack

Billy Squier Rock me Tonite

Soundgarden, Soundgarden, etc.

There you go!

SwindonJogger

I like pumping techno for running, steady driving beats help me keep a decent pace. Schranz techno is my favourite type, around 145bpm. Tons of examples on YouTube.

JenMc14

Sorry for repeats:

Metallica
Korn
Marilyn Manson
Five Finger Death Punch
Halestorm
The Killers
Guns n Roses
AWOLNation
My Chemical Romance
Green Day
The Offspring

liliawodna

Flogging Molly ALL THE WAY. I used to listen to them when I was fitter and would run more often. LOVE THEM.

Bantams29

I've got a fairly heavy rotation of Bad Religion, NOFX, Green Day, Pennywise, Dropkick Murphys, the Offspring, and AC/DC ... in addition to many of the typical bands that you've listed there. Of course I'm choosy in that group as well since not all are great for running.

kckBxer396

Wow. I have seen some bands listed that I forgot existed, some that I didn't think of running to, and some that I've never heard of!!! Thanks everyone!
