This seems like the most appropriate place for this...but I was wondering if anyone had any good "grinding" music to recommend. You know, MMORPG level grinding. You're sitting there for hours and hours doing stuff, any good "grinding" music? Thanks. Preferably just instrumental stuff.
Metal makes you move faster. You can't go wrong with any band that comes from Finland. Sonata Arctica, CHildren of Bodom, Wintersun, Finntroll, Kalmah.
I'd say that too. Some Steve Vai, Joe Satrani & Marty Friedman would be good instrumental too. It depends on what kind of music you like. If your into new age stuff, there is River Of Stars & Medwyn Goodall Moon Goddess which is good instrumental.
If you go for Marty Friedman, go for the last two albums, Music For Speeding & Loudspeaker, the older ones arent quite instrumental only and this isnt the same style at all.
Another artist comes to my mind. It isnt instrumental stuff but if you like Metal music, NightWish would fit perfectly with a fantasy theme, which most MMO are about. The best I could describe it is like an New-Age/Metal hybrid kind of music.
I'm not really a MMORPG kinda guy, but as a relentless FPS player, I've always rocked out to Smashing Pumpkins, even back when I was in college playing over LAN back in the mid 90's. I just can't count how many rounds of Quake Team Fortress I played rocking out, since VOIP wasn't popular back then, music + text was it. For Grinding though, I would most likely want something that kept me on my feet, like in FPS, and that means some hard rock, and that would be up to you as far as preferences go.
[QUOTE="smokeydabear076"]I would recommend Power Metal in general, it normally involves long stories and sounds epic. DrugSkill69
What kind of music is it?
It is a genre, not a band. Bands like Iced Earth, Blind Guardian, Kamelot, Demons & Wizards, and Primal Fear. There are a lot more but those are the ones that come to my mind right now.

LOL that's exactly what I'm doing. I'm in World of Warcraft grinding for Motes of Fire in Shadowmoon Valley.
As for everyone else, thanks for all your suggestions and I will definitely look into them all.
