[scerbz]

any kind of music gets me moving/psyched... anything with a good beat... rock stuff... no hip hop or rap... unless its got a good beat...

[teamflash2005]

[Davynation]

too bad mirra's a sellout

[teamflash2005]

[joey_twd]

Mirra is a hype.. just like tony hawk was back in the day.. seriously.. if he would shit in a box and writes his name on it, people would buy it..

[nutsgeezer]

So I suppose if someone offered you a shit load of money to stick your name on a computer game and make videos of yourself for kids - you would say no right? And if you were good enough to win 11 X-Games golds with thousands of people watching you would say 'pfffff Id rather be poor and ride my local half pipe' I bet.

[Worcester Joe]

Its cool to hate Dave Mirra :roll:

I'm not listening to music when riding, because I broke my headphones, ma playher's screen, it's control.
But when at home, I like listening to OLD FUNK sometimes disco(70's 80's) and in the evenings, before sleep I listen to the reggae music...

not listening to music is better...






...for your life..
especially if you're riding street or cruising..
and if your bike makes funny noises you'll hear
and how can you NOT listen to the sound of grinds?? 8O

[teamflash2005]

this is the first time i am agree with a moderator, but ther is no way you can trun all that down.

[custom_bmx]

i love riding to billy tallent, yellowcard, lostprophets stuff like that gets me pumped

[militiaman]

METALLICA! seriously any good Metallica is the greatest for pumping you up. that or the dropkick murphys...or anarchy in the uk by the sex pistols

[I)esiI)eraI)a]

i cant listen to music, because i broke my mp3 player... :(

but if, i like it the soft way:
Jimmy Eat World and stuff like that....

otherwise i would do stupid things and hurt myself.

[reyesjr02]

METALLICA! seriously any good Metallica is the greatest for pumping you up.

you say any "good" metallica is good riding music....i guess that leaves out the new metallica

[Diluted_Acid]

Punk: Spoken, the only punk band i'll ride to or even like for that matter
Metal: Fear Factory, Deftones, Cryptopsy, Nine Inch Nails, KMFDM, Bile, Jerk, Type O Negative mostly Industrial/Metal music seems to be best for me when riding

[Mattarchy]

Anything fast and aggresive, I could name shitloads of punk bands noone has ever heard of, but I'm not going to.

Slayer is awesome for riding.

Hey

I used to like industrial a lot and any electronic stuff when I was younger (I'm now almost 24) like NIN, Stabbing Westward, Ministry, Pitchshifter, Godflesh and anything with electronic and guitars and all that stuff and oh yeah RATM...

But in the moment I'm more into other slower stuff like guano apes, sum demeana, muse (one of my favorites), ash, mars volta, kitty monkey, racermason, sneaker pimps, snake river conspiracy, tapping the vein, poe, full blown kirk, kelli ali....

Anything with electronic stuff WITH vocals...

I don't think ANYONE in here listen to my kind of music anyway....

:lol:

[Smickus]

i used to be into industrial/darkwave/ebm/electronica...

[WeThePeople]

i always listen to trance when i ride, it just relaxes me, which is how i like to ride

[Jezie R.]

I thought ALL bmxers listen to punk and emo and all that crap in the radio...

Well my friends anyway...

:lol:

[Bristol]

Well i like to listen to the sound of my cassette clicking away.........click...click...click

[Mattarchy]

I thought ALL bmxers listen to punk and emo and all that crap in the radio...

Well my friends anyway...

:lol:

The radio has nothing for me, except older rock'n'roll 8)

[ish@hellstone]

man, u need to listen to some bane,catharsis, circle takes the square :twisted:

[paddyboy]

all i can say is EBM is the best when your riding street

Yeah i like some Industrial, but in only really listen to that stuff when riding. Its nice to see that Bmxers eem to have a varied taste in music, not just all into punk and skate music like many skaters.

[rocket]

I dont get how so many of you say what music you listen to "when you ride"?

Its pretty rare that i see somebody riding with a CD, cassette, or even a mp3 player unless their just cruisin across town. I can go to a huge skate park and maybe see 1 or 2 riders out of 50 that have ear phones on. Even at dirt trails most riders are talking to each other rather than listening to music. Its the same way when i go snowboarding too.
Its just hard to believe so many are riding and listing to music at the same time. (thats a lot of batteries too)
I prefer to ride w/out music only because i can stay more focused and hear whats going on around me.

[rartuin]

classic rock like queen,pink floyd, led zeppelin, rolling stones, and i like new stuff too like nfg, good charolette, mxpx, green day, modest mouse

[Smickus]

portishead and massive attack 8)

[Trimix]

Mirra is a hype.. just like tony hawk was back in the day.. seriously.. if he would shit in a box and writes his name on it, people would buy it..

Just like any other famous person :roll:

Ride like Mirra and I'll listen to ya', but people that keep calling Mirra, Nyquist, Hawk, sellouts.....just seem pathetic to me.

Your BMX world would not be the size and have the activity it has if Mirra and people like him didn't create and think up mad stuff.

[Julle^]

Fast hard music like Raised Fist.
Hardcore/Grindcore.
