Ultimate AMP music

Haha i run a very similar setup.

At the moment the drive starts with invaders must die - prodigy album and finish with some older rise against to get me fired up.

Me and a mate were on a sft (sparrows fart tour) a while ago and he wanted something loud so i dug up an old turbo negro cd and blasted it, that did the trick, loud with a touch of humour

Kyuss!

The Mars Volta usually does a good job for me. Or The Bronx.

Jeez I must be getting old:- Deep Purple 'Highway Star' or ZZ Top 'La Grange'.

Used to listen to a bit of Rage Against the Machine, Alice in Chains, Stone Temple Pilots, Celibate Rifles et al.

Always have time for Metallica's To live is to die, diers eve and almost everything on justice and a few other albums, orion, not really psych up but love it.

DEATH FROM ABOVE 1979 little girl, good pump up for sure.

Sepultura arise, if in the right mood, and schizo good albums, before metal got too into shit voices and cookie monster shit music.

Slayer a few tracks

S.O.D. Has a few tracks that are alright.

NOFX a few tracks too many similar bands to mention.

Like driving down the coast late at night through the bush with goa or psy trance going. It seems so spiritual and earthly or something.

Good classical or remixes of classical like adagio for strings.

solar stone -seven cities, Gouryella Gouryella all uplifting tunes not really psych but good for a drive or chilling out.

Tool, Soundgarden, Replacements, Saints, At the drivein............

The Pixies, Frank Black solo albums, anything with Jello or Iggy, Grinderman, The White Stripes and those crazy Irish teenagers The Strypes.

Lou Reed Transformer.

Best of Kylie Minogue.

Good call with Turbonegro, Neil. They do the trick. I could list a shitload of bands but when it comes to amp music all roads lead to just three stations: Black Flag, Bad Brains, and Minor Threat.

That said, my youngest jammed a Wiggles CD in the car stereo and it won't come out. 'Hot Potato' gets me all fired up.

ramones..cosmis pyschos...bitta johnny cash on way home

Cheers stu, another one that really puts steam in my strides is white zombie astrocreep 2000, a timeless classic of an album
Ps thanks for the volcom shizzit and prompt delivery stu ;) cheers

Although after this morns skunking Elliott smith summed up my mood pretty well on the drive home

and prompt delivery stu ;) cheers

Smart arse!

Rage against the machine

Drive Like Jehu's 'Yank Crime' album is hard to go past for me. The nastiest, most wonked-out guitar duellings I've ever come across.

Ive been looking for bands in a similar vein to metallica, mainly tracks like "to live is to die and that middle awesome section, or any thrash bands similar. still havent found any, they all seem more steve vai or joe satriani style, you know tweaked out riffs and all, awesome music, just not what im looking for. another suggestion was slip knot. I hate slipknot, exactly what i dont like about newish metal genres.

@ groundswell Cant remember how that Metallica song goes, but some Melvin songs IMO sound a bit metallicaish but in more of a stoner groove, songs like "sweet willly roll bar" and "Revolve" from the "Stoner witch album" but a lot of there stuff is all over the place have some real gems but heaps of crap too.

Mark of Cain- Point Man loud as the speakers can bear

Oh man, now you're talking TR. Only wish they'd recorded that track with John Stanier. Definitely the highlight of Ill At Ease though (and their live shows).

Shit I must be bloody ancient. I like silence to accompany a coffee and a banana in the car on a long drive for an early mission. Then later, maybe something chilled. I just can't hit my head with anything loud at that time of day.

Having said that, I'm sitting here workin at 10:30pm with some trance mix off youtube banging away on my headphones. Metallica (lightning and puppets) sets me up for a long night of work too. But for an early be it the 5 mins to my local or a long drive for a mission, i need peace and quiet before I paddle out.

municipal waste, thee oh sees, earthless, sabbath.

Nice choice of Municipal Waste, they were great live a couple of months ago.

I'll add the following.

Paint it Black
Propagandhi

yeah thermalben seen it done live at fowlers on the hottest night in adelaide ever.henry rollins said he should have written that song.not a bad endorsement.

Yes, amp muzak...depends what surf conditions you're confronting? The main break in my area, like myself, has many moods. Sometimes some EXTREME NOISE TERROR is warranted, sometimes SPIKE JONES & HIS CITY SLICKERS...sometimes Mahler's KINDERTOTENLIEDER (when the groms are swarming), sometimes ¡THREE LOCO! (when the city-types are out in force).

As Sir John Denver once sang: "Some days are diamonds, some days are stones/Sometimes the hard times won't leave me alone/Sometimes a cold wind blows a chill in my bones/Some days are diamonds, some days are stones" (incidently a great amp song for those rare onshore days round these parts).

Cool to see quite a lot of more obscure stuff posted, always keen to check out new bands even if its only by google.

Good calls on, At the drive in, Celibate riffles, white stripes, Cosmic psychos, and The Ramones, Minor threat, The pixies, some of my fav bands there.

Also dig, Tumbleweed, The meanies, Exploding white mice, Queens of the stone age (first3 albums), early Superchunk

G'day guys, 1st post on the forum. Amping music, where to begin? A good chunk of what's been already listed, and then a whole lot more.

Here's some of my other faves in no particular order.
Radio Birdman
Sublime
Nirvana
LCD Soundsystem
Fat Freddys Drop
Bad Religion
Bargain Music
Body Count
Suicidal Tendencies
Screaming Trees
Soundgarden
Stick Figure
The Black Keys
Fillibuster
Fear Nuttin Band
The Roots
Now On

That'll do, my list could keep on keeping on for far too long.

like it indo might throw the buzzcocks.the dammed.mc5.moterhead..hardons and early saints in mix

Some good picks there Fitzroy

Which Magic dirt album?

I really dug there first two EP,s and first two LPs especially "friends in danger" there third Album was passable but then there albums after that IMO are absolutely terrible.

@ ID, "Life was better"

Don't mind some songs off other CD's and will be interested to see how Adalita goes with her solo ventures.
