A current band playing along the lines of Ozzy/Sabbath. Seen them classed as anything from Scifi metal to stoner metal to doom metal. Boss band. The sound they can pull from basic chords in C tuning is incredible.
It's all a matter of what you've been used to, and I've been used to no external sounds at all apart from a weighted bar smashing down onto a wooden platform. Now I listen to the natural sound of water flowing down through my water fountain at home. I know, must be painfully dull and boring to some of you, but it's the way I began.

Lately ive been playing some pop-punk from the 1990's over the gyms sound system. Its funny, the "older" crew (say 28-40yo) love it. The younger crew (say 17-24) have no idea whats going on haha
Something like this tune from Sum41. Its simple mindless stuff, and for some reason i find it perfect for training. Not particularly loud, just something to fill the quiet awkwardness that is 20 people training to get stronger.
The more training i rack up, the less inclined i become to put on any music.
If im first in the gym, ive been known to keep the place in silence for an entire workout.
At home, its very rare. Usually during a deload session if it happens at all.
I used to listen to music every session. The likes of 80's Metallica and Slayer was generally the go to.
Just cant do it any more.
If i like the music that is playing i often find it an unwelcome distraction funnily enough. If i dont like whats playing, i dont hear it so it doesnt affect me haha.
Ace of Spades and Sons of Odin do it for me but too much music distracts me and its hard to time the headbanging during an OHP session without getting hurt.
Mostly pre-workout tunes these days to get the aggro flowing beyond general day to day anger.
