What music puts you "in the zone" for TF2?

No matter what I listen to it messes me up. How can you even play TF2 and listen to music at the same time? Especially when you have to pay attention to people talking on mic as well. >_<

i have most of the media players controls binded to extra keys so i can pause or change the volume on the go for when people are talking a lot.

and i find music actully makes me better things just kinda flow togeather and everything become one smooth motion. as im playing
 
Anything with a good beat. But, I dont listen to music while playing. I only did that when I was grinding levels in WoW.
 
I agree with you there SuperSneakyMonkey, ska is great when I'm gaming. It's upbeat and catchy and helps me to focus. I also listen to dubrock sometimes which includes Sublime, Pepper, Iration, and Long Beach Dub All Stars (if you like Sublime then you might like these bands too).

I will check them out, thanks for the suggestions!
 
I play the trombone (and some other brass instruments), so ska is definitely the way to go for me. Also some jazz every once in a while to relax and camp as an engy.

You wouldn't happen to live in the Austin, Texas, area would you? My ska band needs a trombonist!
 
Sneakysneakymonkey, you know there is such a thing as a edit button?

But I never listen to music, I listen to the game, how else will you hear spies uncloacking, heavies shouting, ubers charging, but I do love the domination sound :D

For all you ska lovers, try some Reel Big Fish. It gets me fired up in tf2.
 
I only listen to music while pubbing. Then I listen to any good dance/techno. Gets me in the beat and since I never stop moving ingame its like I really am dancing.
 
If you want adrenaline, try this:

Big D And The Kids Table

Less Than Jake
The Mighty Mighty Bosstones
Mad Caddies
ska and reggae are close enough so Peter Tosh and Marley

I love reggae too. Try Matisyahu, but listen to his music before you see what he looks like. ;D

@bulletsinthefire: You're welcome! I love spreading good music around. :D

@CharlieMac: LOL.
