What is the song that just always seems to get you pumped up, or one that you listen to in order to get pumped up? Mine would be Hostage to Heaven by Grip Inc, with Future Breed Machine by Meshuggah a close second.
A whole bunch of Meshuggah songs... Future Breed Machine New Millenium Cyanide Christ (the part at 3:20 kills me) The Mouth Licking What You've Bled Suffer in Truth Sickening
Fear Factory - Concreto It's on the Dog Day Sunrise single, an amazing upbeat fast drumming song that freaks me out.
Old Sepultura has always been the band that gets my blood pumping. Especially the song "Propaganda". Damn did they rule.
hmmm The Dividing Line by Dark Tranquillity Serenity Painted Death by our good ol' Opeth Zero Tolerance by Death Dead Heart In A Dead World by Nevermore This Mortal Coil by Carcass those were the first ones which came to mind...
Although I'd like to go with a classic response and give it to Slayer's "Angel of Death", "Stain of Mind" from the Diabolus in Musica album probably wins the grand prize on this one. That last chorus was Tom Araya's most aggressive vocal ever. It makes me want to smash things into bits and then those things that had already been smashed, into smaller bits. "Refuse/Resist" by Sepultura is up there for sure, as is Testament's "D.N.R.", most of SYL's City album, System of a Down's "Know", Hypocrisy's "Apocalyptic Hybrid", and good 'ol Serenity Painted Death deserves a mention as well. You all know what part of that song I'm talking about...
As far as Opeth goes: Serenity Painted Death, Demon of the Fall, Advent, and The Leper Affinity. Other bands: Iced Earth's Burnt Offerings and Dante's Inferno, Megadeth's Wake Up Dead, Holy Wars, and Black Friday, and Slayer's Raining Blood and Necrophiliac. Yeah, I know, mostly old 80's has-beens but in terms of pumping me up that's what does it. www.mp3.com/soulforlorn
darkane - rusted angel ... that makes me INSANE sonata arctica - wolf and raven... gives me the power to shoot fireballs i cant think of shit.. im dumb
Necrophobic by Slayer, or pretty much the entire Razor album "Shotgun Justice". That's just a relentless barrage of total thrash! Lee
Pretty much every song on At the Gates' Slaughter of the Soul makes me want to go on a destructive rampage. To me, nothing is more rousing and aggressive than ATG! Honorable mention: Nile -- Barra Edinazzu Sepultura -- Refuse Resist ("Chaos AD, tanks on the street!") In Flames -- Ordinary Story Fear Factory -- Martyr Opeth -- Blackwater Park
Some upbeat Rush song...too many to list. While I like thrash/death metal, which no doubt contain more sheer energy by sound level standards, Rush has always had that something for me. I agree, Martyr by FF is great. Their best song, no contest.
"Spybreak! (short one)" by propellorheads, godhead, nine inch nails. Mostly industrial, speedcore, digital hardcore or sumthing like that, not really metal as much
Not many Opeth songs seem to be cited, but Bleak is certainly one for me. Others include Same Eyes by Angel Dust, Everytime I Die by Children of Bodom (even though I generally do not like the band), Lines in the Sand by Dream Theater, To Mega Therion by Therion, Holy Thunderforce by Rhapsody, Kinescope by Jacobs Dream, Devastation by Savatage, The Eyes of Medusa by Symphony X, and others...
Death's cover of Painkiller -People have actually complained about me going 70 down my street while headbanging to this at full blast! Opeth-Serenity... Sinister- Fake Redemption Slayer-Jesus Saves Dan Swano- The Big Sleep Emperor- Night of the Graveless Souls Mayhem- Necrolust and Thorns on Which you lie Krieg- A walk among the Stars Clandestine Blaze-There's Nothing... Death- Pull the Plug Anything by Testament, save "The Ritual" Morbid Angel- God of Emptiness
Slayer - Reign In Blood (the whole album) Dissection - Night´s Blood Vader - Wings The Crown - The Devil And The Darkness Deicide - When Satan Rules His World Morbid Angel - Dawn Of The Angry Machine Head - A Nation On Fire Strapping Young Lad - All Hail The New Flesh Slayer - Sex Murder Art Pantera - Mouth For War At The Gates - Suicide Nation The Crown - Total Satan The Haunted - Revelation Testament - COTLOD
should also mention Dissection - Retribution - Storm Of The Light's Bane and Soulreaper and Slayer - Raining Blood and Necrophiliac which were already mentioned earlier...
Theres the whole Reign In Blood like someone said. Especially Raining Blood. Theres Sadus, the whole Vision of Misery album, one of the greatest thrash record ever. The voice of the guy is so agressive. Deicide - Lunatic of God's Creation There are others but I cant really think too well right now
