I just wondering what kind of music you listen to when you ride around.

I listen to Rock, Altenative, and Techno. Depending on how i feel.
 
Well If it's not techno and rap from the radio it's usually the two Flowmaster mufflers on my 289CID V-8 playing their wonderful music.
 
Yes I love the sound of my engine. But I do Like to listen to my stereo. It's so hard to choose between the two. But it's the engine sound that turns peoples heads not the radio.
 
i dont know both of mine do. When i got my system up it turns heads. When i got my engine sounding good it turns heads. So its a win-win situation
 
I prefer to listen to a song called 9,100rpm Redline...😈


I think Honda sings it, but I'm not positive...:P
 
Depends on when, where and how I'm driving.

As mentioned previously I spend a fair chunk of time driving interstate and through the country, so for a 9 hour drive where 8 hours involves sitting on cruise control, yeah, you're going to go through the CDs.

My personal preference is alternative, but a list of bands in the CD wallet would include:
- Radiohead
- Doves
- Midnight Oil
- Ghostwriters
- Sigur Ros
- Massive Attack
- Pulp
- Neil and Tim Finn (inc. Crowded House)
- Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds
- Ben Folds (both Five and solo)
- The Strokes
- Sigur Ros
- Smog
- REM
- Gomez
- Placebo
- Pearl Jam (later stuff)
- Ian Brown
- Smashing Pumpkins
- Coldplay
That covers most of my moods. I'm a bit lucky in Australia as one of the major players of alternative type music is a Government youth radio station, Triple J, and it's national, so if none of the CDs appeals I've always got that to fall back on.

If I'm driving through a windy country road and I'm pressing on a bit or having some fun, aural entertainment is provided by a Subaru 2.5 litre flat four working between 4500 and 6200 rpm.
 
i listen to the sound of the 31x10.5 R15 tyres humming and i like hitting the audible lines when my girlfriend falls asleep...that usually results a smack in the head :lol:

mostly the radio, standard tape players ****ed and i dont really care about a car stereo.
 
In my bros car, we usually listen to 2.2L I4, and every so often we turn the wistle up...you know, around 2350RPM it really starts up, then it goes away a little but by then we're going to fast to hear the music...
 
im not a fan of rap but i listen to some techno with the same amout of bass. Rock also sound good with my system turned up
