good driving music
 

Just wondering what the rest of you listen to while behind the wheel.

I'm currently rolling with some mudvayne, some manson, and a few custom burnt cd's. Usually varied by what kind of mood I'm in.

I really like the lastest White Strips cd. Used to listen to Sabbath, but that cd sorta wore out, now it skips too much.

Well I like to listen to some Rage Against the Machine while I drive, or Ministry. I really only listen to Rage when I have a good stereo system with lots of bass. I reserve Soundgarden or Pearl Jam for my headphones.

punk in drublic

Wumpscut, Hocico, and many other various aggressive EBM artists.

also, Trent Reznors "Driver Down" (just because of the great scene from Lost Highway)

Mainly custom stuff. Varies a lot. From country to rock, some rap, gospel, all kinds of stuff.

I've gotten speeding tickets to the following songs.

Back in Black
Turbo Lover
Radar Love

Monster magnet is surprisingly good driving music. :)

In the car presently:

Weezer
The John Spencer Blues Explosion
Herbie Hancock

(subject to change without notice)

Jamiroqui (I think I spelled that right...)
Almost all their songs have a good driving beat, notably:
Traveling With Out Moving

There's a bunch of other good ones too

attempting for a brutal accident while listening to killswitch engage, pantera, deftones, sevendust, system

Ozzy's Diary of a Madman or anything by Judas Priest. Nine Inch Nails is pretty good too.

Early Beatles. Either 1962-1966 (red album), or any of the pre-Sgt. Pepper original releases.

Sepultura

Metallica
Down
Pantera
Foo Fighters
Stone Temple Pilots
Prodigy
Ludacris
Various Tributes to Metallica
Pearl Jam
etc.

I usually start my day off with Elvis and The Doors, then on the way home I listen to a few songs from each CD.

I drive 12 hours a day. I gave up. Now I only listen to NPR.

Sublime - "Wrong Way"

best with windows down, sunroof open, wind in your hair, and a hot chick ridin shotgun!!

Usually i listen to Talk Radio, but at the moment I have Dave Matthews Band's Before These Crowded Seats in. No good shows on weekends.

for me
 

tool is good for driving

red hot chilli peppers are good for long road trips

sometimes pantara is good for when i feel like hawling ass

Queens of the Stone Age - Songs for the Deaf

Great, GREAT driving feel.

Lostprophets - The Fake Sound of Progress is great too... some songs are laid back and relaxing, but you won't fall asleep at the wheel, because the next one will give you a nice surge.

I can always listen to Tool.

While just cruising around town, and working on not getting tickets so my insurance rates will hopefully drop I tend to listen to...

Run DMC
Pharcyde
LTJ Bukem
Mushroom Jazz
Acid Jazz

While going snowboarding I'll generally listen to...

Sublime
Beastie Boys
and Tool

On roadtrips when I've been going for 10+ hours straight, and need a bit of energy I'll pop in my two old energy techno...

DJ Ruffneck
Blank & Jones (either of these CDs never come out for any other reason well, I listen to DJ Ruffneck while Quakin', but been a long time since I've even done that).

ewww.

that stuff doesn't remind me of the road, it reminds me of radio stations blaring commercials and songs converted to advertisements.

If it's been used to hawk applebee's processed food, it does not belong in my stereo.

ahem. that said, I record dance and world music, along with some good hip hop, off of shoutcast.com. XM radio also has a great selection of tunes, and is easy to use.

I drive 150 miles a day delivering stuff, I know what I like in my truck.

All depends on the mood since I listen to just about every kind of music.

After work it's usually System of a Down (I'm a programmer, i gotta get that rage out somehow).

Before work, usually some Dave Matthews, classic rock, or rarely classical.

When I got a girl with me, it's Barry White all the way (just a joke y'all) :)
