Any high energy music, I am not picky when it comes to genre, as long as the tempo moves fast and every third word is not of the variety that children cannot consume (ambient instrumental, Pop, JPop, Metal, Rap)

Discordant, high speed music. (See also: Half Life 2 Episode 1's "Disrupted Original [http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=rfn2Sn81bnM]") Nothing gets me more uppity than a Transhuman zombie calling me a 'biotic'.

Anything fast, heavy drums, loud guitar. Rage Against the Machine, Chili Peppers, White Stripes, Metallica, Velvet Revolver, some Hendrix and Zeppelin songs work.

There are only three types of music I listen to when getting focused and playing games. Classic Rock:I especially prefer Guns 'n' Roses, AC/DC, and other bands that use high energy guitar sequences. Classical:A lot of the classical type music either has quite a bit of energy behind it getting the adrenaline flowing, and calmer tracks such as Canon in D Major help me calm myself when trying to get past a really difficult part of a game. Weird Al:Gives me a psychological edge. Play it during the pre-game lobby and the enemy will think you're a retard who sucks at the game. Most players, givin this opprotunity, would play in a way that would give them the most gloating room, while not necsicarilly playing strategically. Multi-kills should rack up.

Gangsta rap. Because it's so manly it gets my testosterone pumping.

Nothing says "I'm a man" more than firing guns, disrespecting women and smokin' crack.

Thats. . . .Actually my same response. I mostly choose my music through any anime or video games though. So I usually keep it a secret from my family. Its more like a guilty pleasure for me really. I just know that my sister would make fun of me for it. XP

I'm a big fan of epic metal. Nightwish really gets me up, same with Blind Guardian. I'm also into heavier metal and am currently listening to some Jrock bands

Metal, with a gigantic hard-on for Iron Maiden, especially their later stuff now they have three lead guitarists and aren't afraid to use them. Oh, and Steve Harris is a bass player not ashamed to be heard. My friends are actually sick of my obsession with For the Greater Good of God (with film clips) [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RSyL0-hj0Jg].

Always disliked metal, it makes me nervous.
I love listening to music with a warm glow to it like Sigur Ros and Coldplay to calm my mind.
When I need something stronger I listen to Muse.
And for some weird reason, I'm a big fan of Björk. She's addictive and can't be pushed into any genre, except crazy alternative.

I prefer alternative rock overall but if it has a melody that I can't get out of my head and a great rythem, I'm sold.

Crazy Japanese Techno and Pop.
M.O.V.E
TRF
Mega NRG Man
Revolution
Fastway
Dark Angel
Dave Rodgers
And yes if you are wondering, the majority of games I play involve Cars, Japanese Cars, Drifting, AE86's, Wangan, S30Z's or any combination of those.
Fuel by Metallica is great for getting pumped too thou.

Meh. Music doesn't 'pump me up.'

Actually PLAYING it is a different story. Seriosuly, Grade 6+ Piano is hectic.

BWAAAAR, METAAAAAL~

There's nothing more thrilling than cranking up The Hydra's Teeth while speeding through rush-hour traffic.

I've never actually done that, since I'm a pretty safe driver, but still, it sounds like fun.
