Underworld is great, esp. as I see you are into Chemical Brothers. Very good and you can pretend you are in a Wipeout hovercraft (only applicable if you are in the Jack Lynch tunnel in Cork though).

For city driving at night time, I recommend SNoop Dogg and Xzibit. It captures the city feel superbly. SNoops' new R&G The Masterpiece is excellent for driving around town as it keeps you awake and you don't take **** from pedestrians.

unklerosco

Air - Makes u drive at the limit, music to make love to
Daft Punk - Kings of Electronic music(the live album is unreal)
Jay Z, Neptunes - for the beats
The Cure - Greatest hits has nearly everything
Lemon Jelly - Sunshine n lazydays
The Avalanches - Same as above, sweet music

seamus

Anything Iron Maiden, the early Metallica Stuff, any Incubus, anything by Prodigy.

vector

Anything with a continuous, and racy drum beat like
Huey Lewis & the News

Stephen

Creedence Clearwater Revival - Fortunate Son
Red Hot Chilli Peppers - Dosed
Sum 41 - Pain For Pleasure
Chakachas - Jungle Fever
David Bowie - Rebel Rebel
Stevie Wonder - Superstition
Elton John - Saturday Night's Alright for Fighting

House of Pain - Jump Around
The Von Bondies - C'mon C'mon
< a whole heap of stuff from Thin Lizzy >
U2 - The Unforgettable Fire
Blue Oyster Cult - Don't Fear the Reaper

Actually, there is only one song that sticks out above all, for hot summer days, with the window rolled down.

Incubus - Summer Romance (Anti-Gravity Love Song).

It cannot be beaten.

I recommend listening to something soothing, like Lyric FM. The roads are bad enough as it is without getting yourself in a lather listening to the 'Ace of Spades'.

Dades

Kings of Leon

wtf? - have you guys not seen the ads on TV?
Chris Rea, Dire Straits, Eric Clapton - that's real driving music!

pull on your leather driving gloves, put on your aviators and cruise those mountain highways to the sounds of Brothers in Arms - now that's driving!

Juan Pablo

Chemical Brothers Block Rocking Beats. Cant think of a better tune to dirve to!

Only if it's on the same CD as the Cold Storage stuff!

Winning Hand

Ever drive to the company of frank, dean and sammy? In the right mood it absolutely cannot be beaten

Apart from that I am in the middle of a rap/hip-hop phase which is pretty cool

mike65

*me folds arms and sternly asks "whats this got to do with Motors?"!*

I like to tap my right foot to Slayers Reign in Blood er thats a complete lie. I have loads of tapes full of olde worlde rock from Radio Caroline and European Classic Rock (rip) plus I feed a number of internet streams to tape. Mainly chill-out stuff from N-Joy and Chilled Beats (both live365) they're exellent and
really help keep the driving and driver on an even keel.

Mike.

SouperComputer

ive an mp3 cd in the car with everything from Slayer to John Coltraine!

im trying to listen to more jazz while in traffic, leave the slayer til i get home!

Blink 182 - Violence (stunning drum work as usual)
Feeder - Just a Day (plain good old fashion fun part 2)
Frank Black - Thalassocracy (just a plain scream of a song)
Green Day - Desensitized (smashup start, great stuff)
Green Day - Nice Guys Finish Last (plain good old fashion fun part 3)
Girl Wants (to say goodbye to) Rock And Roll (http://www.gohomeproductions.co.uk/mp3.html) (great mix this)
Pixies - Head on (for obvious reaons)
Placebo - Brick Sh!thouse (bounces around the speakers, class)
Placebo - Bruise Pristine (great corus, driving bass line)
Prodigy - Smack My Bitch up (rarrr etc)
System of a Down - Chop Suey (daft fun)
The Cult - She Sells Sactuary (all time classic guitar riff)
U2 - Bad (Live) (awesome, extreme loudness needed, the start always makes hairs on the back of my neck stand up)

Massive Attack - All of the Mezzanine album is sublime when you're cruising home from somewhere at 3 or 4 in the morning.

Damn straight. Nice and mellow while navigating rindabites.

Theme from the Magnificent Seven.

I must confess to having a liking for listening to crap 80s pop while driving. There, I've said it.

Creamy Goodness

Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody


i'm shocked and appauled that this wasn't on anyone's list! :O

Wayne's World spoiled that one.

Anything by queen is class. I do get strange looks at traffic lights when i have the windows down in summer and have flash gordon booming lol

Gordon's Alive!

They played Bohemian Rhapsody on Lyric FM the other night as I was driving home late. Why? Because its on the Leaving Cert Music syllabus. Class.

"And that was Roger Deacon on electric bass guitar...."
