oh yeah and rammstein, great choice you know its great when you can not understand 90% of the lyrics but still love it

yeah, the rap isnt the best for aggressive driving, but it's pretty sweet for driving in general, or "rolling" if we want to get gangsta. One thing about it to me though, rock tends to add to your experience, makes it seem more visceral, but rap makes you feel cooler, like if someone were watching you, you'd seem like more of a badass because of that funky beat and fresh rhymes yo.


oohh, how about the Doom 3 theme song? that was done by the guitarist of NIN's solo project: tweaker. really bad ***. there's a quiet bassy intro that drops out, into slammin guitars, which makes the perfect start to an all out acceleration fest.

So now you got me thinking about rock:
Judith- A perfect circle
Black betty- Ram Jam (Now THATS a driving song, i sped to a play my girlfriend was in that i was late to once to that song in my 5 speed SHO, it was sweet!)
Would- Alice in Chains
Bark at the moon- Ozzy
Be Quiet and Drive- Deftones
Faithless- Injected
Damn near anything by Rage against the machine rules.
Rusty Cage- Soundgarden
Breaking Point- Velvet Revolver

Happy Rotoring.

anything metal, or heavy from the early 80's(AC/DC is my favorite), or pound the bass with some old school rap and make your car feel young again!!!

Perferably the song "You Spin Me Right Round"

for congested city driving, "low rider" from War is it? If I was going the speed limit the other day, I'd have been hit by that dumb broad that rad the stop sign in a black chrylser talon. Fortunately I slammed the brakes just as she car blasted infront of me.

Concrete Blonde is cool too.

Rock You Like a Hurricane - Scorpions

Long road trips and an RX-7 require good loud music.
Nice mix going on there, especially Young Lust, I never would have thought about that but now that I do, I imagine it fits some "spirited" driving pretty well.

for aggressive driving, and somethign that puts me in the mood to go fast :

Iron Maiden
Rage Against the Machine
Deftones
Pantera

For long driving:

Godspeed you black emperor!
David Grisman Quintet
Tool
APC
anyone that has really long songs and that are especially mellow.

Some ICP or Twiztid would be nice. Or some Flashbulb, or Machinae Supremacy.

Breathe
Firestarter
Smack My B*tch Up

Triple threat, not only does it get me going, the dam songs make me high, makes me feel like I'm driving a 4-rotor turbo. Music does funny things

First I was gonna say ZZ Top hands down, considering the model. But then with all this talk of "aggressive driving", my vote goes out to metallica's "Blackened" off 'lightning. Or you could always listen to my band:
myspace.com/lemondropkick
not quite as heavy but it'll get u movin and u can pretend ur in japan or something given the vocals
