I tend to go with loud, hyped-up music. Some grindcore will do, usually Nile or Cryptopsy. Some rap will do, usually Lil' Jon or Dead Prez or Jedi Mind Tricks. Some electronic music, usually Kid 606 or Aphex Twin, maybe Chemical Brothers or Daft Punk. Sometimes a little hard rock, say AC/DC's High Voltage or Queens of the Stone Age. If it's punk, I go with the Vandals, DK's or Dayglo Abortions. If all else fails to motivate me, a little Michael Jackson Off the Wall or Junior Senior will always come through!
"If it were beneficial, their father would produce children already circumcised from their mother. Rather, the true circumcision in spirit has become profitable in every respect." -Jesus, from the Gospel Of Thomas
thats an extremly eclectic taste in music mr even i dont think i could get behind grindcore i have dead prez on cd too theyre very good i love underground rap
If I want uptempo I go with early Metallica, Disturbed, Tool, System of a Down, Cradle of Filth, or Black Sabbath. IF I am uptempo but want rap I always go to Lil' Jon. But for those more relaxing times Queen, Pink Floyd, the newly discovered Wilco, and Led Zepplin are good.

Burnie, I might have to hook you up with my bro since you've invoked Lovecraft's "God" or, whatever the (literal) hell, it is, again. (I sure hope this has nothing to do with the answer to your riddle, O Screwed One! (only if it does!)

Daniel sounds more like Elvis Costello or Colin Newmann (of Wire), while Rossdale is an insufferable caricature of Kurt Cobain, complete with faux vocal tics. You have angered Megatron with your impudence and you are hereby commanded to listen to “Sixteen Stone” four times in a row as penance.

i did not mean to anger you mr megatron i just noticed a similar voice i am in no way saying that they even half as good as spoon i wouldnt even call it an influence since no indie rocker would ever listen to bush i think its just a mere coincidence since he sounds british and has a hoarse singing style , but even if he doesnt sound like gavin rossdale i still think its pretty weird that a rock band from austin texas they're singer sounds like hes british..........

Yeah, but you've got to at least give him style points for landing the Mr. Gwen Stefani gig.
.
well hes in the doghouse now cause he fathered a little girl out of wedlock back in the 80s so theres a chance he may not be mr gwen stefani for too long
i usually like to go for something with not a whole lot of tempo variations but i did listen to " beautifull garbage" today its so weird how long it takes for there records to really sink in..........
