Pendulum, especially their latest album 'In Silico' with "The Other Side" being a track that is more of an experience than just a drum and base song.
For example it is the fist album that I liked so much after downloading it that I bought the CD!

the video is ace too:

there is no one else out there which even come close to Pendulum.

The latest cd by Clutch called From Beale Street To Oblivion has a few songs that get me pumped up. Bluesy gritty stoner rock, a winrar is Clutch.
I love Clutch, dude! But I think they're better suited for just "hangin' around", ambient-type music (well, the stuff on the new CD anyway - Mob Goes Wild or Big News are pretty bangin'). Stuff that gets me pumped is Rob Zombie, Black Label Society, System of A Down. And some dance/club type stuff, like Sean Paul.

I love my Death and Thrash Metal, in many variations. Right now, my favourites are Debauchery and Blotted Science.

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].
Ah, a fellow Maiden-freak.

I find myself often isolated in my love of Maiden's new stuff, despite the fact that I pretty much love everything they seem to churn out, except for The X-Factor and Virtual XI (It's really not Maiden without Bruce). Maiden is associated with lots of emotion in my case, since I listened and still listen to them extensively. I can go along with every melody, harmony and nuance in most of their songs, and that's overwhelming even to myself, who has been a dedicated fan of theirs for about seven years, now. I picked up a guitar because of Iron Maiden. I became a great lover of music because of Iron Maiden. I read lots of books with Maiden in the background (I don't even think of the Dune universe without hearing Maiden in my head). I listened to Iron Maiden when I worked out every day, and while I walked to and from the gym.

For this reason, I will lump Pink Floyd and Tool into this group. Though the latter two bands were not as ingrained into my life as Iron Maiden is, these are musical acts to which I dedicated long periods of my life through tireless appreciation. The Beatles and RHCP are approaching this, but for now the former aforementioned triumverate will do for my answer, because they pump me up with emotion every time I hear them.

I tend to find dance/rock crossovers do the trick very nicely for me. Mad Capsule Markets, Mindless Self Indulgence, Prodigy etc etc.
MSI are awesome to get pumped up to.

To pump me up there are three main genres (sorta two)

Punk - Old stuff like Sex Pistols, Clash, Ramones, ect

Indie Punk - New punk stuf that IMO is more faithful to old school punk than modern punk is. Bands like the Hives.

Industrial - A good pumping NIN song or some manson gets me going and energetic.

I love you and want to have your babies. We're very alike: I love my Maiden for all activities; I went into the Bayley albums ready for the awesome but found little forthcoming (Dickinson or death. Di'anno will do as well); their new stuff is my favourite; and Maiden really pushed me into music appreciation.
