Oh my god use the SEARCH FUNCTION before opening a thread.

Rap, it has a beat in the backround, so it almost like metronome cubing with good music

You know, I'm just starting to try out something where I try to solve it before a song end. I start both at about the same time(the song always starts first). I'm a big Pearl Jam fan, so I have a lot of songs of various lengths that could work. Right now, at my current (slow) clip, PJ's cover of "Leaving Here" is about right to give me a challenge(~2:45), but I really want to eventually be able to beat "Lukin"(1:02) consistently.

Edit:"Green Disease"(~2:40) is probably better than "Leaving Here".

Same goes for the "Something wicked this way comes"-album from Iced Earth.
They have a really steady beat in most of their songs.
I've also found out for myself that it helps when I know the music really well i'm listening to while cubing since i tend to focus more on the music if it's new to me.

WHEEEERE IS DEATH METAL!?!?! you just have to try to listen to death metal while cubing

I listen to punk NOFX, Rancid, Rise Against...but when I'm doing slow solving I listen to the Gonna Fly Now (Rocky theme song)!!! Also I like the Lemonheads and bands like them because they're so mellow

P.S. - I think you kinda insulted punk you put punk/emo even though they are two TOTALLY different kinds of music

Thanks to this, I now listen to music while cubing!
Now I can remember how to solve the cube.

Rock.
Usually on the Hard Rock/ Heavy Metal side.
It's funny, I find I can consistently do 4 or 5 seconds better when listening to certain music, and worse than my non-music average when listening to others.

haha i usually end up listing to a7x it has variation in its songs and i usually average better with the music on. so ya idk maby its just beacous i idolize the band that i get all excited over the music playing and thus get better times.
