March 12, 201115 yr Amon Amarth! Best F#cking melodic death/viking metal ever! Any album, any song, but my favorite album is "With Oden On Our Side"... QUOTE] +10 Mine vary on mood. Leaves Eyes Enter the Haggis Man-O-War The Jolly Rogers Recent addition, Daft Punk BLS Hammerfall
March 12, 201115 yr Fleetwood Mac and Bruce Hornsby. Anything with a lot of screaming pisses me off when I'm working on stuff.
March 12, 201115 yr Classic rock like including Boston, Foghat, Bob Seger, Eric Clapton Southern Rock Molly Hatchet, Lynyrd Skynyrd Easy listening? Harry Chapin, Jim Croce, Cat Stevens, Elton John, Ray Charles, James Taylor, Jimmy Buffett Old country George Jones, Merle Haggard, Waylon/Willie, David Allen Coe. A lot of the mixes from the 70's for "Classic Rock", "Singers & Songwriters", whatever Sams club had that looked interesting. Mostly CNBC the TV Business channel actually - I have a crappy TV but the sound is good. Another hobby is investing - especially stocks and it's nice to know what folks on TV may say that may cause folks to make certain decisions when they are too stupid to think for themselves. I can often make money off of that to fuel my car hobby and overall it's done me well. Now that I got Sirius (radio is tough in a pole building) It's usually on the classic rock stations. Haven't purchased a new CD (unless a new realease) in probably 4 years.
March 12, 201115 yr Haven't purchased a new CD (unless a new realease) in probably 4 years. What is this "purchase music cd" you speak of? I only know of internet downloads... Nah, I've never paid full blow for a CD, mine have always come out of the discount bin. Got a great one, "Audio Day Dream" by Blake Lewis on clearance when Circuit City was closing. Beat Boxing is awesome BTW. Twitch
March 13, 201115 yr No mention of Dave Mathews ? great tunes to wrench to . I saw a lot of Subaru's at the last DMB show , you mean to tell me I'm the only one that fixes my own Subaru of all those fans ?

Harry Chapin, Jim Croce, Cat Stevens, Elton John, Ray Charles, James Taylor, Jimmy Buffett Old country George Jones, Merle Haggard, Waylon/Willie, David Allen Coe. I agree, I listen to this plus a lot of indie rock, Coldplay, Black Keys, Franz Ferdinand, Dispatch, Jack Johnson, Jon Mayer, White Stripes, Modest Mouse, Weezer, Phoenix. Two of my favorites lately have been the Local Natives and Jack Johnson. Plus Led Zeppelin, The Doors, Guess Who, Arlo Guthrie and Grateful Dead!
March 13, 201115 yr But when Kate Perry's or Darren Criss's "Teenage Dream" comes on the radio, I soooo have to turn it up!
March 13, 201115 yr I like Metallica a whole lot, not much post-Cliff Burton however. Boston, Kansas, Journey, Judas Priest (breakin' the law ) Lots of Nine Inch Nails, Tool, A Perfect Circle, maybe a little Marilyn Manson here and there.... And since I'm from Los Angeles, always gotta throw some classic gangsta rap in there
March 13, 201115 yr I can't hear it over the air compressor, drill, hammer'n, whoop'n'holler'n anyway so I just put it on NPR. + 1 I like stuff that is not as well known. Give me some David Baerwald, Kevin Gilbert, Toy Matinee, Crowded House, Split Enz, Niel and Tim Finn..... And I can wrench for hours at a time!
March 18, 201115 yr Well when my best friend and I are workin' we listen to a mix of good ol' country and techno. When it's my dad, Led Zep, Tom Petty, Don Henley, you know... the classics. For me? A mix of EVERYTHING. From Norah Jones to Tom Petty to DJ Satomi to George Strait. I like it all.
March 18, 201115 yr No mention of Dave Mathews ? great tunes to wrench to . I saw a lot of Subaru's at the last DMB show , you mean to tell me I'm the only one that fixes my own Subaru of all those fans ? Ohh oh oh! Me! I do! I love DMB. and Incubus. and Everclear. and lots of others. Lol.
March 18, 201115 yr grateful dead, steve miller, sublime, motley crue, jimi hendrix,mystic roots, bob marley all seem like suby working music to me.

October 12, 201114 yr This are my "Number Ones" [♪] Iron Maiden: http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=95208 [♪] Within Temptation [♪] After Forever [♪] Rhapsody (of Fire) Rhapsody (of Fire) has a Philarmonic Metal Style, they even sang with the Great Actor of the Deep Voice: Christopher Lee: ... ... Accept is Great Too... I Remember "Prisioner" and "Generation Clash" from my Days at HighSchool, also "SeaWinds" is Nice, but "Mistreated" is Beautiful... I Have the Rare Extended Version. I like Metallica a whole lot, not much post-Cliff Burton however... I Agree... but I Like the Black Album and the Cover they did of an Iron Maiden Song, "Remember Tomorrow" Could you Believe that my Little Baby Girl does Like my Philarmonic Metal Songs?
October 14, 201114 yr when my old jeep would brake down, and I had to open the tool box, the song "another one bites the dust" kept popping into my head. but now that I have a subaru, that needs fixing, and having someone else to do the fixing for me ....this song keeps popping into my head:
October 14, 201114 yr I've been on a dubstep kick lately. Mostly when I'm wrenching on the mistress though, the Subi has been pretty much straight rock and metal.
October 15, 201114 yr No music while working, I'm out on the street doing my repairs and have no boom-box. Just the sweet sweet sounds of my own voice cursing and screaming while underneath the Sube
October 22, 201114 yr No music while working, I'm out on the street doing my repairs and have no boom-box. Just the sweet sweet sounds of my own voice cursing and screaming while underneath the Sube Hey! That sounds like me! Street parking repairs except for the head gaskets (at a friend's apartment with a parking lot) and the clutch/dr 5-speed (a friend with a rental house and driveway). I get music stuck in my head a lot, though. I think the last song was certain one about being well endowed (link below). I jammed a roll pin trying to get it out and spent an entire day cursing at the d*amn thing, and that song cheered me up. (NSFW):
October 22, 201114 yr barbara steisand and bette midler. if im feeling really hardcore, celine dion, for her heavy guitar riffs!!!! maybe some justin bieber, just for variety. gotta have my bieb. lol...... naw, like a few have said, classic rock is good, something with a good beat. lyrics are pretty meaningless when banging and grinding and running compressor. all you hear is the beat anyhow. i prefer the albums that all run together, like pink floyd. its really just an 75 minute song. i get kinda retro when im doing quieter car work, like wiring, etc.... new wave. heck i even listen to the old pre WW2 stuff, like al jolson and off the wall stuff like that. johnny cash. bluegrass, maybe. i have a heard time keeping my eyes and hands in the slow electrical-work gear, if my ears are in that fast punkrock and techno and death metal gear. Tool works cuz its loud and heavy but slower tempo. same as some system of a down. im a diehard fan of rage against the machine. i just dont feel like it flows well with my mindset when wrenching. and the main buddy who helps me in the garage a lot is into gangster rap. he is polite and pretends he is okay with the metal and hard rock, but i know deep down he wishes it was Dre or easy-e or something like that.
October 22, 201114 yr i like to listen to Godsmack or Rob Zombie really the only 2 i think worth listening to while wrenching.
October 22, 201114 yr Mindless self indulgence. or grime and bass, or dubstep I love heavy wha wha bass while wrenching on an ej. i also love the odd sounds of MSI while working on the GL,
