Nice, man.
Theese are my favorite training metal groups. Except Opeth, (I’m suprised you heard for them) whic demands a greather level of concentration.
I was on their concert, it was in Treviso, Italy.
I also saw Children of Bodom in Wiena, Austria.

Not one mention of Meshuggah here yet?

Check out these albums by the Swedish metal kings:

Destroy Erase Improve
Chaosphere
Nothing
Catch Thirtythr33

And if you really like those, check out these that are a bit more obscure:

None
Rare trax

Here are some other bands:

Into the Moat
Blood Has Been Shed (featuring members of Killswitch Engage)
Dillinger Escape Plan
Psyopus

All excellent and extremely complex math metal.

Oh boy my favorite topic. Ok let’s see:
Metallica
Motorhead
Megadeath
Anthrax
Living Colour
Tool
A Perfect Circle
Pantera
311
Led Zeppelin (a must)
Linkin Park
STP (Core specifically)
Deftones

There are others, but these are the ones that get me “high” and really pumped. Check them out.

Deftones – Adrenaline
Downset! – Do We Speak a Dead Language
Check Your People
Misfits – Static Age
Rollins Band – Weight
Get Some, Go Again
End of Silence
Bad Religion – (anything off of Epitath records)
Korn – Korn(the first album)
Helmet – Meantime
System of a Down – (any album)

Try this website:

It’s like a customized radio station…it gives you the actual songs of other artists that match say disturbed for instance.

Uber-kewl.

You said Rock music…I wouldn’t put many of these bands in the rock music category. If you don’t like it, then you can tell them and they’ll hone your interests down, not to mention you actually get to hear the songs…so that’s wicked…oh and it’s free!

BTW…regarding the In Flames comment, about nothign after Reroute to Remain…I totally disagree…the new disc will tear your head off!

Just delicious…go by it!

Just made a new playlist yesterday:

Disturbed
Godsmack
KISS - War Machine
Linkin Park
My Chemical Romance - Helena
Puddle of Mudd - Control
Quiet Riot - Bang Your Head (80s fan-sry)
Rage Against the Machine
Pantera
Staind

Godsmack
Nickelback
3 Doors Down
-Good call on the Sevendust!
Black Sabbath
Chevelle
Collective Soul
Nine Inch Nails
Linkin Park
Black Crows
Fabulous Thunderbirds
Sammy Hagar’s “Mas Tequila”
Also:

Steve Earle
Kenny Wayne Shephard

[/quote]

All of those are excellent choices!
Steve Earle - one hell of a songwriter
Kenny Wayne Shephard - saw him in concert with ZZ-Top. Great show!

Also -
Theory of a Deadman
Seether
Silvertide

I can’t believe that with all the hardcore/metal/metalcore bands mentioned nobody has mentioned CHIMAIRA!!

I go to the gym, and just put Hatebreed albums and 2 Chimaira albums on repeat, that’s all you need really.

For ME squat days, check out Crowbar… they are from that same school as Pantera/Down/COC/Eyehategod, etc. Realllly slow, but cool riffing and it sounds like taking an excrutiatingly long dump.

You saw Bodom live too?Man,my friend broke his arm in the mosh at one of their shows.They’re great live.

Get Haymaker by Throwdown. They’ll make you want to bite through your plates. They’re straight edge, but nobodys perfect.

Judas Priest- 30 years of quality metal music…
try these cds:

Painkiller
Screamin for Vengeance
British Steel
Angel of retribution
Defenders of the Faith
Stained Class

Eh. I aquired it some other way and was disappointed. It’s much better than Soundtrack to Your Escape, but it’s still no Lunar Strain.

www.pandora.com is a similar site.

No doubt!! I totally missed that one in my list. Pass Out of Existence is one of my top CD’s.

You can try some RUSH. Grace Under Preassure, 2112, Signals and Counterparts are great.

In the other hand, go further back in time and try some Deep Purple and Cream.

Or come to the late 90?s and 00?s with some Dream Theater…

There are very few people enjoying Rock now-a-days… Hip hop and other forms of music have taken the good old Rock bands away.

Say what?!!! That’s news to me! When did he do that?

I mean Rob Halford was a given and Kirk Hammett was no surprise, but Lemmy?!

Kayrob, you just blew my mind for the day. Wow.

I’ve only seen it mentioned on here a couple of times, but I strongly recommend Mudvayne. Also Slipknot, Nickelback, and the first Audioslave. If you dont need something quite as intense Green Day, Seether, and NIN are nice. SOAD is extremely reliable; I think Toxicity may be the best workout album ever (length, songlist)

Does anyone else listen to A Dozen Furies? They kick some serious ass!
