Lets say I need 45 minutes of music. Post the list that would keep you going.

Well, it would have Constant Motion in it, that's for sure

Surprisingly I'd have a lot of SC and ToT on there, even though they're two of my least favourite albums. I'd go with As I Am, Constant Motion, maybe Glass Prison, and some Pull Me Under for good measure. Tool are my favourite band for running music though.

Panic Attack
Honor Thy Father

Constant Motion
Panic Attack
In The Name of God OR Lines in the Sand EDIT: OR The Glass Prison
Take the Time
Under A Glass Moon
Caught in a Web

That should be around 45 minutes.

My running play list has VERY little DT.

I think Constant Motion, Panick Attack and the likes are on there, but the rest are pretty boring to run to.

The Letter M · « **Reply #8 on:** February 26, 2010, 01:21:27 PM »

As I Am (with or without the SDOIT-chord intro)
This Dying Soul
Constant Motion
Panic Attack
Honor Thy Father

That's about 44-45 minutes right there.

You would also do the whole Twelve-Step suite, which would run about 55 minutes.

If you like epics, I'd suggest:
In The Presence Of Enemies (Part 1)
In The Name Of God
Lines In The Sand
Metropolis Pt. 1

Panic Attack is obvious.

Whatever you enjoy the most, really. Doesn´t necesserally has to be a heavy song.
Its not a bad idea to hear the whole AA saga though...

Durg · « **Reply #13 on:** February 26, 2010, 02:12:26 PM »

Pull Me Under
Metropolis - Part I ["The Miracle And The Sleeper"]
The County Of Tuscany
Take The Time
Wither

Opps That's over 45

Constant Motion
Home
The Dark Eternal Night
Root of All Evil
Prophets of War
Solitary Shell
Honor Thy Father
Finally Free

No clue how long that would be, but I enjoy all those songs while running.

I also air drum while I'm running, which gets interesting with certain Portnoy parts. People must think I'm crazy.

Air-drumming while running? At least the arm-movement adds more to the workout!

Also, your list is about 70 minutes long! Great list, though! Was it coincidence that most of those are MP-penned lyrics?

Count of Tuscany is a staple in my cardio playlist. When you're running and the middle section comes in, it's EPIC, like you're in a movie scene and you're running to save the world.

Plus the song goes so quickly, you hardly notice that you're 20 min into your workout.

Wouldn't it be hard to run to DT? I mean, wouldn't the constantly shifting time changes fuck up the running rhythm?

Exactly. You need something simple, like AC/DC.

That being the case, you could just run to "I Walk Beside You" x 9... except, it'd be "I Run Beside You" in that case...

Are there any other DT songs with one constant time signature one that would be good for running? (Meaning a slow ballad wouldn't be appropriate, like "The Silent Man" or "Vacant" or "Hollow Years" or "Anna Lee"...something with ENERGY).

Gorille85 · « **Reply #24 on:** February 27, 2010, 07:40:50 PM »

I always run with The Glass Prison.

AwakeFromOctavarium · « **Reply #25 on:** February 27, 2010, 10:24:02 PM »

Surrounded, Lifting Shadows, and One Last Time are must. Others aren't that important as of now.

The Dance of Eternity

There is nothing funnier than trying to walk (or jog) to that!

AC/DC is a good band to run to. DT does get kind of tricky, but I'm horrible at keeping a steady pace anyway.

Overture 1928 and Strange Deja Vu were really helpful to me yesterday going up a hill.
