when I am exercising etc and need that boost I stick on some foo fighters, queens of the stone age, biffy clyro, nirvana...kick ass music to kick my booty when i am needing that boost!

I also have a list of cheesy tracks like best of you by foos, keep on running, journey dont stop, yes its sad and yes it is bad but it helps when on the teradmill lol...

Wow. When hiking, nothing. Ever. The quiet is nice and I like to know what's going on around me.

At the gym, training? Pantera, Meshuggah, Helmet, etc.....

Belgium for 2011:

SP-history reasons? Did I miss anything?

Their lyrics are quite stupid. Historically extremely incorrect... They still make fairly nice music though...

If you like Meshuggah, you should check out these guys. They are a heavy version of them.
