What do you listen to during build season? Check all that apply, and feel free to put down any favorite bands as well. If you check "other", please tell us what you listen to.

Re: Build Season Music
 

while i do my work i just listen to whatever comes up on my ipod. but some of the bands at disturbed, hollywood undead, godsmack, theory of a deadman, and metallica.

Re: Build Season Music
 

Your list is lacking. No R&B, no rap,no pop and no alternative.

Re: Build Season Music
 

i do have some of that but i had to comletely reset it so nowi have like 50 or so songs

Re: Build Season Music
 

Foo Fighters

Re: Build Season Music
 

It definitely depends on the night- I have "I'm pumped up because everything is going awesome" playlists, but also playlists for "why are people being so frustrating tonight, grrr I'm mad", and "whoa, I need to relax" and "who needs to sleep" etc. ;)

Re: Build Season Music
 

I listen to the same thing I always listen to.

Metal.

Re: Build Season Music
 

We take turns with who plays the music, but I usually get to monopolize it :)

CLASSIC ROCK
The Guess Who FTW :ahh:

Re: Build Season Music
 

When things get tough at robotics me and my friend sing musicals back and forth to each other >_< there's also a lot of techno!

Re: Build Season Music
 

There is a nice site that streams a bunch of electronica for free that I love listening to. www.di.fm
Good site for just random stuff to listen to when you are bored with your playlist.

Re: Build Season Music
 

half my team listens to a lot of music from musicals. then the other half, idk punk/metal i think

Re: Build Season Music
 

We heard sweet child of mine SO MANY TIMES in the radio every Saturday morning last year...

Re: Build Season Music
 

I keep telling my team we need to listen to Mission of Burma but only one member knows what in the world I'm talking about. >_>

Last year we eventually had to ban the song Cliffs of Dover by Eric Johnson because one of our members was playing it too much.

Re: Build Season Music
 

I've almost always got my ipod in when in the shop although it's hard not to get pumped up over nothing when your listening to Slipknot, Five Finger Death Punch, White Chapel and others like that. Although on slower days i prefer stuff like KISS, poison, and Motley Crue :D

Re: Build Season Music
 

Well, right now Santana is playing. Depending on who has their MP3 player connected to the sound system, it varies from neoclassical shred metal to pop, blues and rap. (AC/DC is the only thing everybody plays)

Re: Build Season Music
 

Reel Big Fish.

Re: Build Season Music
 

Nine inch nails, Ministry, Alien sex fiend, Marilyn Manson and a whole lot of techno.:)

Re: Build Season Music
 

Luckily my boy steve has a hoodie with speakers from CCS so we can listen to whatever we want to really. And pretty much it is always some heavy metal. With some old southern rock thrown in the mix.

Re: Build Season Music
 

I've been pretty much forbidden to play the music I have from musicals...I envy you. Same with the classical stuff I have...sadly.

For the design team, it's mostly a combination of rock from different time periods, with some more modern stuff thrown in. And the essential Dragonforce and Metallica...

And then there's a few ipods that have quite a bit of dance music...and one where you could go from listening to The Who to some random J-pop, and then some random indie band. :rolleyes:

I'm not too sure what they listen to over in the shop. I haven't been in there in a while...There was one really special point where we were both listening to the same song at the same time, and we were just a few seconds ahead of them

Re: Build Season Music
 

I'm not allowed to play my music out loud, as I'm the only one who enjoys it.

If I was, things would be a lot more awesome.

Re: Build Season Music
 

I know this may seem silly, but as a web designer, what really gets me focused is the pokemon theme song from the first pokemon movie. It just gets me all pumped and all excited for the day.

ROFLMAO

But most of the time, I listen to some Taylor Swift or Linkin Park or The Eagles. Paramore is pretty good too.

Re: Build Season Music
 

Symphonic metal sets me in the mood for programming; either Nightwish or Trans-Siberian Orchestra. They also help out when I'm doing electrical work.

Most of the time we don't have music on, though; we're chanting various things (such as "badger badger badger badger ... " -- we have a team-member named "Badger" and so we adopted the badger song).

Re: Build Season Music
 

I'm listening to 'Rosetta Stoned' by Tool right now...not for the kiddies. Not much music past year 2000 on my iTouch...newer rock...esspecially the &*%(that people call metal (e.g. Incessent bass drum beat with rediculous fluctuations between growl and scream) doesn't really cut it for me. After you get heavier than slayer or pantera you cross the fine line between angry and rediculous. Oh well...besides boiling my blood with minor key guitar riffs I also listen to some classical (Mozart's requiem) blues (SRV) and more classic rock even some eletronic. I habitually avoid rap and country and emo...I really hate guyliner...

Re: Build Season Music
 

Awesome for the Nightwish part i sadly can't find others that like them too.

Re: Build Season Music
 

Led Zeppelin. It's all I need, but I also like:

Metallica S&M
(the album where they play with the San Francisco symphony orchestra)

Random Techno (I've heard sandstorm at robotics appox. 57483906 times xD )

:D

Re: Build Season Music
 

I'm a Classic Rock guy. So that means Boston, Electric Light Orchestra, Led Zeppelin, The Animals, The Doors, Rush, Chicago, Dokken, Van Halen, Cream, Queen, Foreigner, Frank Zappa, Emerson Lake & Palmer, Guns N Roses, Jimi Hendrix, etc. The list goes on and on.

The only techno I really listen to tends to be Aphex Twin.

Re: Build Season Music
 

I've got quite the variety on my Walkman. Within about half an hour I'll go from Rush to Skynyrd to Andrew Lloyd Weber to They Might Be Giants to Canadian Brass to Chuck Mangione. There's also some REALLY random stuff I've picked up off of Youtube

Whoop, almost forgot Devo

Re: Build Season Music
 

My other is music from plays like "Little Women" (this years play, come and watch) "Phantom of the Opera" (best in the world), and maybe "Les Misrebales." (not sure if I spelled that right) Anyway, some really great classical could work too (but it has to be powerful and amazing, which very few is).

Re: Build Season Music
 

Rock and Techno

Anything from
Sweet Child of Mine to
Now Your Gone to
Bleed it out
