I listen to Santogold, Les Savy Fav, Pulp, Sleater-Kinney, Le Tigre, Of Montreal, LCD Soundsystem, MIA, The Smiths. (also Horse to Water, I'm Gonna DJ, and Living Well's the Best Revenge off REM's new one is awesome for running)
 
 For cool down, usually Neko Case or the Shins.

Mostly old-school punk - Ramones, X, Fear, Husker Du, The Clash, Buzzcocks, Black Flag, The Damned, etc.   Short, fast songs that keep me going.

Mine is a lot like this for when I'm skating. Sprinkle in there some Go! Team, Yeah Yeah Yeahs remixes, Hot Chip and some Girl Talk and Peaches and that's pretty much what fills my shuffle for workouts.

I'd have never thought Pulp would be workout music.  I guess "Common People" and "Disco 2000" would be good to get the heart pumping but what else?  "The Day After the Revolution?"  "Pink Glove?"  "Happy Endings?"
 
 I'll have to try that.  Pulp for working out.  Thanks for the tip.  Do I have to stare at the middle-aged women in the aerobics class though, all J. Cocker-like?

wait, i thought Brian only liked bands from today?  Certainly Pulp fits nicely into the same category as Radiohead, Wilco and thousands of other bands indie kids claim to be important and influential, yet dont make a blip on the album sales / pop culture scene.
 
   Guess his arguments ARE completely without merit after all.  He just likes to trash bands he doesnt like. just like the rest of us.

Real punks don't "work out".

Yeah, they just become junkies and die in their prime. Guess that makes Amy Winehouse and Pete Doherty real punks.

unless i need to catch up on something (i.e. new album of a band i'm seeing soon), i only listen to electronic dance music in the gym.  my heart rate synchs up with the music.  i won't bore y'all with names of producers you've never heard of before and don't care to hear about anyways    :)

Electronic artists or poppy-punky bands, the names of which I'd get flamed for listing.

Well, they do, they smash their guitars on stage instead of pissing and moaning about the lack of security like the so-called punks of today. FAGS!!!!
