    AFI!
    A lot of their albums start out slow and gain momentum. Try the album Burials or Sing the Sorrow!

    I love Rhianna and Nikki Minaj. Sometimes beyonce. Lots of female artists

    And songs that are tied to memories. I know people like to get pumped up. I love to let my mind wander when I run and just go

    I love Beyonce, Katy Perry, and Rihanna but I also have a few guilty pleasures like "Poison" by Bell Biv DeVoe and "Good Vibrations" from Marky Mark and The Funky Bunch. Country music is my cool down music - "Springsteen" by Eric Church is my favorite

    Black Sabbath

    Anything Foo Fighters, Pearl Jam, but 80's and 90's hair metal is always good. Did I date myself?

    Jagged Little Pill - yeh i said it
    Tha Carter - Lil Wayne
    Assorted music from the 90s
    a bit of drake
    throw in some Paramore for good measure
    and some assorted R&B


    Now I should probably explain. I am edgy when I am at the gym and I have that killer mentality you usually find in most professional athletes and extreme lifters. I am also aware of this, so I tend to listen to music that keeps me in a state of being mellow. Never to edgy cause if I get that way, I am liable to hurt myself and still keep going like I am possessed, thats how I tore my rotator cuff. But not too soft where i don't even push for my final set. Just right in between which keeps me focused :)
