I love the custom soundtrack feature for racing games. Most music that comes with racing games sucks; and there are so many songs that are perfect for high-adrenalin racing. I'd love to hear what other racers out there are jamming to when they race. I use much spacier music for Mercedez-Benz Racing (like Aphex Twins "Selected Ambient Works"), but for other more action oriented racers, here's what I'm racing to:

More Human Than Human--White Zombie
Public Enemy #1--Motley Crue
Short Skirt/Long Jacket--Cake
Be Aggressive--Faith No More
Intelligent Guy--Butthole Surfers
Blue Monday--Orgy
Fight Song--Marilyn Manson
Living Dead Girl--Rob Zombie
Close Range--New Order
Stripped--Rammstein
Euro Trash Girl--Chicks on Speed
Flashback--Tomahawk
99 Red Balloons--Goldfinger
Been Caught Stealing--Janes Addiction
A Daisy Chain For Satan--The Thrill Kill Kult
Kooler Than Jesus--Thrill Kill Kult
I'm Afraid of Americans--David Bowie

Yeah, custom soundtrack's rock--one of the best thing to happen to racing games ever.

I've yet to get me an XBOX(here's keeping my fingers crossed for christmas), but if I were to make costom soundtracks for racing games, it would include these songs:
Motorcycle Driver-Joe Satriani(better yet, pretty much any songs off of his albums The Extremest and Surfing with the Alien.)
Flashback, 101 North, Point and Click, Laredo-Tomahawk
Any Brujeria song from their album, Brujerismo if you want the adrenaline to flow
Seven Words-Deftones
and fast electronica
A Small Victory seems more fitting than Be Aggressive for racing, IMO. Or any of the up-tempo songs off of King for a Day...

I was going to use Small Victory; its my favorite song on Angel Dust, but then my stupid sense of humor got the better of me and "Be Aggressive" seemed like the perfect joke racing song to put on there. That's amazing to see someone who knows Tomahawk, too; I thought I was the only fan!

I'm a huge Mike Patton Fan. . . I think I own just about everything, including his incomprehensible "Adult Themes for Voice" and the collaboration he did called "Music to Make Love to your old Lady by" or something like that. I also really like his band Fantomas. I also got to see his band Mr. Bungle live once in a very small club. Hands down the best show I've ever seen. Over the course of the show, I think he sang in five or six different languages, including latin, and my girlfriend, who is a freak for languages fell in love. Took her to that Bungle show and she's thought Mike Patton was the hottest guy on earth ever since.

I didn't know anybody else actually had listened to any Mike Patton solo material. Impressive....

Yup. Patton is pure vocal genius.I've been a fan ever since FNM's first CD with Patton came out. Not Introduce Yourself. That was ass, but it's because they had some other loser on vocals. I also saw Patton live, but it was with Tomahawk. Oh my god, I almost creamed my pants when I heard him sing Mayday off of the Tomahawk album, Mit Gas. Man, I would've loved to hear Bungle, especially in a small club!, but unfortunately, there are rumors that it's over for them. At least he still has his other bands like Tomahawk, Uncle Tom's Cabin, Fantomas, and about four others.

Sorry to throw this thread off topic, so I'll put it back on with some more picks.
Apex Theory-Hope Diggy
Pantera-F*cking Hostile
One Minute Silence-Brainspiller
Mudvayne-Dig
Dream Theater-Scenes From A Memory(the whole album, since it's a concept album, and a beautiful one at that.)

Cruising around in True Crime or GTA with the Grateful Dead, some Zeppelin, some Floyd, and some Neil YOung is great!

Queen-We Will Rock You,Flash,Princes Of The Universe

Limp Biskit-Rolling,The Mission Impossible theme

Creed-My Sacrifice

Motorhead-The Game

Those are cool ass songs to listen to while playing games like Splashdown or DOA Volleyball on the Xbox.

Plus I listen to alot of R & B and Hip hop too.Cant wait to play those tunes when I buy either True Crime or GTA.

Creed, Limp Biskit and Hip Hop. . . why am I not surprised? :rolleyes:

If the mods are going to afflict us with your banned carcass again, could you at least be kind enough to remove that hideous gigantic eyesore of a banner at the bottom of your posts? Please? Seriously.

Besides getting back to the original thread whats wrong with Creed,Limp Biskit,and Hip hop music? Perfect racing music if you ask me.Leave the personal stuff alone and concentrate on talking about the threads thats posted Gadfly.Show some maturity for once in your life.

Don't talk to me about maturity, oh thou who hast been joyously banned the last month. If you'll read the dozens of threads that occurred in your absence, you'll notice that none of them got derailed or degenerated in to flagrant stupidity. That only happens when you're around. Coincidence?

Nothing wrong with hip hop per se, not all of it is formualaic "me too" industry crap. It just seemed so perfectly obvious that your mix of great music would be creed, biskit, and hip hop. I don't think there's much point in explaining why that is hilarious, you wouldn't get it anyway. Race away to whatever does it for you, and thanks for taking down that eyesore banner.

Now that you have an Xbox you're starting to feel important these days huh? Good for you.Yes I do like mixing it up with a little rock,a little hip-hop,a little Queen,and alot of other stuff.It really keeps you focussed when playing a great racing game on the Xbox.Since this is what this thread is all about keep the personal stuff out of it will ya? Show some class and not your ass.

I do believe it was this kind of nonsense that got you banned.

This is really boring. I guess if you're determined to turn system wars back into garbage again there's nothing anyone can do about it except try to ignore the stench or go somewhere else.
