    Default Jack White and Garage Rock

    If I love Jack White, The White Stripes, Dead Weather, Raconteurs. . . what else should I be listening to while lifting? Black Keys? Pack a.d.?

    (you guys crushed that 90s rap thread, can you do the same here?)

    Not really my strongsuit here in terms of genre. Maybe The Hives? The Strokes?

    Older Black Keys (Thickfreakness) are excellent if you like that garagey, raw feel. The Two Gallants are full of Lo Fi, two-manned loud brilliance as well.

    Good God! You should be listening to Black Sabbath.

    Then listen to Slipknot.

    Jack White is great and all but his music is when you need to mellow out a bit. You know, when you're in the car with your girlfriend or something. A compromise. Weightlifting is not a good time for compromise.

    Listening to Fu Manchu gets me charged up. So does Clutch. But they're not really that garage rock you're looking for. HOWEVER, if you like that raw, "organic" (not over-produced) sound, and don't mind punk, go with Black Flag's "Damaged" that's a good one to work out with.

    Bad Brains' Rock For Light is a good one too, if you can crossover into punk.

    Oh! And of course, there's Samhain's "November Coming Fire"

    Jealous cowards, try to control
    RISE ABOVE, WE'RE GONNA RISE ABOVE!
    They distort what we say
    RISE ABOVE, WE'RE GONNA RISE ABOVE!
    Try and stop what we do
    RISE ABOVE, WE'RE GONNA RISE ABOVE!
    When they can't do it themselves
    RISE ABOVE, WE'RE GONNA RISE ABOVE!

    WE! ARE TIRED!
    OF YOUR! ABUSE!
    TRY TO STOP US,
    IT'S, NO USE!

    Can't go wrong with Metallica's first four albums + Death Magnetic. I have a nice playlist of selected tracks from those (I don't have Kill 'Em All...yet) that I put on shuffle. I do well with a mix of AC/DC's more rocking tunes (e.g. Thunderstruck, TNT, Dirty Deeds, Flick of the Switch, etc.). A little Minor Threat is good. Motorhead.
