I guess I'm the first so like EDM (electronic dance music) but more specifically hard trance, dnb and dub house. But since 5th grade i've been a metal junkie
Despised Icon
Heaven Shall Burn
In Flames
At The Gates
Cannibal Corpse
Winds of Plauge
ect.
Some ska, classic rock. And for all you Sabbath fans, listen to Candlemass - Lucifer Riscing, its a f*cking killer anyone who like metal (any form) will appreciate it.
And to 84blacktransam, listen to some Hub City Stompers and Toasters for some good ska, streelight manifesto is good **** BTW.
Funny how these threads pop up from time to time, but here's my list.
Usually I will be playing a lot of country and rock of all kinds. Sometimes if the right mood hits me right I will put in some Rap or hip-hop from the early to mid '90s, techno, older funk, or even some bass music (yeah, remember those?).
Some country favorites: Hank Williams Jr., George Straitt, George Jones, Jerry Reed, Waylan Jennings, Alan Jackson, etc.
i'm into all the old skool stuff, fleetwood mac, the moody blues (so trippy), jefferson airplane, tommy james and the shondells, reo speedwagon, the doors, the beatles, zeppelin, etc etc.. like some 80's stuff too, def lep, whitesnake, skid row, night ranger. with a few exceptions, nothin much after the 80's
Big fan of the Motown and 70's Phillly sound as well................

went to the storage unit to go see the '92 rs... been sitting two months in freezing cold -20 temps... poor thing even had a little snow on it (it's in a barn lol). i thought for sure it wouldn't start, the battery was left in it... started right up, first turn... "run to you" bryan adams was playing on the radio... turned it up and jammed out!!! its a good song and totally time fitting for our thirdgens!!!
I havnt posted on here in awhile becasue my cars in the shop and I blew my amp so my system sounds like crap without my subs. But my newest "racing" song is Sound Of Madness by Shinedown. I really want to hear it in my car, kinda depressing everytime i hear it casue i want to go fast

I usually listen to country, but i like ALL kinds of music. Depends on the mood.
Yep. Today Kills, Sadies, Golden Palominos (their version of For a Few Dollars More--think Clint Eastwood--is killer), and Lone Justice--oh, and Stephen Stills. Tomorrow King Crimson and who knows what.

Hey this is a really entertaining thread to read through. Thanks for posting this! I gotta stay true to the era of the car with my tunes. My top rotations would have to be:
Guns n roses- appetite for destruction
Metallica- and justice for all
Van Halen- 1984
Led Zeppelin- all of em
and various Danzig/Misfits albums
the last thing I had in my car till the stereo went into total meltdown was White Zombie Oh man electric head at 180+ kms is awsome LOL also had some ministry goin as well
I can't get enough of Megadeth! I also love to crank up Iron Maiden, Scorpions, Ozzy, Yngwie Malmsteen some Metallica (their older stuff- Kill Em All, Ride the Lightning, Master of Puppets, Justice for All, the black album) and 80's hair metal like Dokken, Van Halen the list goes on & on...
I also turn up 80's music like Loverboy, Miami Sound Machine, Pat Benetar, Laura Brannigan for my wife (I also like that too..) this stuff sounds great with the JBL sub box in the rear hatch. I also love ZZ Top, Lynerd Skynerd, & all that southern rock. Sorry guys, no hip hop here... maybe the odd time Tone Loc, C & C Music Factory, Snap, Technotronic, or KLF... as you can tell I love my rock and metal... OK for all you younger guys out there, OLD SCHOOL ... yeesh, I said it... LOL but I think nothing suits these tunes better for my 86 TA a.k.a. my time machine.
Cheers to all you guys out there!

I have a pretty WIDE taste in music. I'm mostly a metalhead (been a thrash drummer for YEARS) but lately I've been listening to alot of old 90's country (Mark Wills, Garth Brooks, Faith Hill...etc I hate new country these days too poppy) but I've been straying back to the world of the METAL!!! lol
Metallica (All Metallica, new and old. I'm a TRUE fan)
Megadeth (number 2, no matter how hard Dave Mustaine tries to be Metallica)
Pantera (May Dime rest in peace)
Anthrax (madhouse is the ****)
And many more

Ah, today. Donna Summer's Live and More (Don't guffaw until you've heard her version of MacArthur Park live--smokin'!), Merle Haggard's Best of (try Hungry Eyes which will tear your heart out!), The Flying Burrito Brothers (Wild Horses and I Shall Be Released are way cool!), Kills (There's a bonus cut called "Gum" which is odd and somehow strangely sexual that's worth a listen). The Divinyls were also sweet (I Touch Myself is great but I prefer Pleasure and Pain). Head East rocked me.
Later some Roger Daltrey (Ride a Rock Horse) and Grover Washington, Jr (Live at the Bijou).
And I recently bought the Beatles stereo box--Yes, I watched them on Ed Sullivan in '64! And listened to them on the AM radio in my '54 Chevy two-door sedan: 57 Plymouth canary yellow, Renault bucket seats, Hurst on the floor, lowered in the front, dual Rochester carbs on the straight six and a dual exhaust with glass packs. Yeah, baby!
Note: The Daltrey album (yes, I still call them albums) was pedestrian, but his version of Rufus Thomas's Walking the Dog brought a smile to my face.

Hey robert frank, I agree that today's country sounds too much like pop. Nashville has lost touch with it's roots too much, I love "old"country like Merle Haggard, Hank Williams Jr, Red Sovine, Willis Brothers, Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson and the rest of the artists from such a great time period (50's -90's). I guess you could say I like Megadeth better because Dave Mustaine and Marty Friedman made such a great pair of thrashers and speed pickers. I mean, James Hetfield and Kirk Hammett put some great tracks down over the years, but Dave and Marty just seemed to have so much energy and great technical abilities that you can't ignore! Rust In Peace (1990) has some amazing songs on it, and the other album releases were great... but I am not here to preach guitar tech to you, man... I guess every man has his own tastes and I'm not putting yours down in any way. I too, over the years, have played drums, guitar & bass.
Pantera's "Walk" is a heavy tune to crank up in the car, yes, may Dime rest in peace... and Anthrax is just freakkin' awesome! I just love "Madhouse", "Anti-Social", "I'm The Man" and the other one with Public Enemy was kinda fun (I can't remember the name of that tune off the top of my head)... And I'll add 2 more to this list, Testament and Canada's very own (and sexy) Lee Aaron. Take care...

"Bring the Noise" is the song you're refering to from Anthrax and Public Enemy. Testament is another band I dig the hell out of. I remember when I first heard them on their "Apocalyptic City" live album. I was hooked ever since. "Practice what you preach, Disciples of the watch and Souls of Black" are probably my favorite songs from them. Some of the first songs I learned how to play on drums were from Pantera's "Cowboys from Hell" album ("Domination" was a bitch to play when I first started,lol). Ah, the good ol' days,lol
Lots from Mid 50's till now....Country to Rock....Lately I've been listening to Amon Amarth---Persuit of the Vikings, Fate of Norns, Cry of the Blackbirds. Some Marilyn Manson---Sweet Dreams, Tainted Love, Beautiful people, I'll put a spell on you. Mudvayne---Dig, Do what you do to me, Happy, Not Falling.
Korn---Evolution, Hold on, Freak on a Leash.
Pantera---F**king Hostile, 5 minutes alone, walk.
SLAYER!! OLD METALLICA!! Anything after And justice for all IS CRAP!! Pantera,Slipknot, Hank williams 3. Man waaaayy too many to list!
