Good topic.

Skindred - Babylon (weird hybrid of hardcore and ragga/Jamaican dancehall)
Stuck Mojo - any, but esp. Pigwalk and Rising (early hardcore, political in a good way)
Thrice - Vheissu (hardcore - start with tracks 1 and 6)
Dream Theater - Train of Thought, Octavarium
Boy Hits Car (are they even still around?  Hope so...)

- Chris

Classical.Not the elevator music kind.You can feel it in your bones & there are no meaningless vocals to distract you from the pure emotions.

Now comes the cop out.:)Everyone likes something a little different.Look for a disc called something like "Heavy Metal does Mozart" or something along that vein.I'd skip Best Buy & try Barnes & Noble for recomendations.

For rock?Van Halen from their first five albums,Def Leppard,Queensryche,& Ted Nugent.

I'd have to second 41mag's suggestion, too.
 
E.S. Posthumus has some cool stuff, particularly the album Unearthed, and the song Nara.

But, I also enjoy working out to Rage Against the Machine, I love that stuff sometimes.

Lawdog,

Rammstein?
Judas Priest?

Funny. Not that I disagree with your choices, but I sort of had you pegged as a Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson type.......

I like all of the above...

Halfway there. Don't forget some good jazz, and I don't mean the smooth/cool nightclub-type stuff. Locomotion from Cotrane's album Blue Trane makes pretty good workout music, as does Morgan's The Sidewinder.

I dunno, I always took the more Techno/Industrial/Trance approach for this sort of thing.

It is now "more" official.  I "are" old at just shy of 51.

I have no idea of the who, what or where - of the Artists and Works shared above.

Work-out.  Errr...

Older returning student, and you try not missing steps, or running into closed doors with a heavy backpack...

Pink Floyd "Dark Side of The Moon" - as I did mounting shotgun and dry firing thru all 8 "stations" and other "stages"  continous thru the whole album.

I do this with Bob Seger "Live Bullet", Allman Bros...ZZTop...Rolling Stones...etc.

Cleaned house from top to botton listening to "Outlaws" album[ Willie, Waylon] and  Hank Williams Jr.

And thank goodness I had Jimi Hendrix to get me thru the "workout" of my last homework assignment.

Tossing twenty 25# bags of #8 shot to the tunes of Creedence Clearwater Revival...and then later carrying 3 at a time to the tune of Willie Nelson...The who...Frampton anyone?

Times have changed - huh?

I do not consider shooting 200 rds straight non stop with a shotgun a "workout" - Seger and Live Bullet do their bit, I do mine.

...Twenty years, where'd they go...sometimes I sit and wonder...

My current selections are a band called pendulum (dance music), Soil - Scars, Stone temple pilots first two albums, audioslave, little feat - dixie chicken and Sinatra at the sands with the Count basie band.

Funny thing, I turned thirty and the Who became good. Who's next is a cracking album.

Thank goodness for you SM!

I thought I'd been beamed to some alternate universe!

My workout tape has:

Dire Straits...Money For Nothing & Sultans of Swing

Golden Earring...Twilight Zone

Del Shannon...Runaway

Dion...Run Around Sue

Beachboys...Surfin' USA & Surfin' Safari

Beatles...I Saw Her Standing There

ZZ Top...several (Man, you shoulda seen them in concert!)

The Wonders...That Thing You Do (One of my top 3 movies!  Yeah, I know they're not real.)

My 50 yr old wife, however, LOVES heavy metal (or whatever you call) Rob Zombie/Marylin Manson/System of a Down/Buckcherry/Seether/Type O Negative.  Where, Oh where did I go wrong?

Zao- Liberate te ex infernis. It's what I listen to when I want to beat someone w/ a Hooligan tool.
Deftones- Adrenaline. By far their best
Linkin Park- Any
Metallica- Older albums, esp Master of Puppets
Coal Chamber- Chamber Music or the self-titled
System of a Down- Self-titled or Toxicity. Haven't heard Hypnotize or Mezmerize yet
Cradle of Filth- dunno albums, just heard 'em on the radio
Slayer- Any
P.O.D.- Snuff the Punk and Brown. Before they got popular and started sucking like a dehydrated whore
Disturbed- The Sickness
DMX- dunno albums, but some of his stuff is pretty aggressive if'n you like rap
Grammatrain- Flying
Juno Reactor- Bible of Dreams, Shango, Beyond the Infinite
Klank- Still Suffering. Includes my favorite angry line of all time "The world would be a better place without you."
Millencollin- Life on a Plate and others. Not hard or angry, but fast
Pennywise- Any
Offspring- Any

Damn, I'd better stop. I used to be pissed off all the time, so I have a lot of memories of working off anger and frustrations to music. Hope this helps.

+1 for Mindcrime.

Suprised no one mentioned KMFDM. Most of their stuff from Nihil and later makes great workout music.

Other:
Slick Idiot
Drill
Bio Hazzard
2unlimited or most mixes of 90's techno.
