Yeah, Depends on what kind of "shit" im feeling...Depressed consists of Bluesy music like Blind Melon or some Led Zepplin songs...

But Pissed off consists of Pantera or Rage Against the Machine....

and then my personal favorite, Five Horse Johnson can deliver both, lol...

Cheesy, or just bad enough to be awesome?

Crystal Castles
Thrash / Thrash / Thrash

no, this is thrash http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CUDWLp1yIWw
[and this is still just epic http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XhY2zacn134 - Vinnie is just a machine]

but yeah, in a bad mood, blasting some loud music is great. i happen to have a PA system here, which comes in handy :P
best thing to do is to set up the speakers either side of my head, like giant headphones, and turn it up till things start to shake. probably doesn't do my hearing much good, but i only do it now and again >.>

If it's a song I really like, or a song I haven't heard in awhile, I'll pump it up.

I can't help but blast the end of Mr. Jack and yell along with it(well, most of the time).

I tell you one thing, never EVER play "Fuck the Police" by NWA when being pulled over by the police...I couldn't talk myself out of a ticket when that happened.

Duh.

As far as the OP, why do people feel the need to damage their ears all the time? Can't you listen to music at a normal volume that is not all-encompassing? I tell ya, kids these days.

I'm old, when I feel like shit I take large quantities of pain-killer and a nap. I don't blast music.

"Blasting music" sounds like you're turning the volume dial all the way up. Beware of hearing damage, and wear earplugs to rock concerts.

Crystal Castles are pure pish, but aye, from time to time I crack the volume up to 'Max' and feel the world shake.

To me, blasting music suggests a shotgun vs speakers battle at a rolling stones concert.

Or just work their way in until you can't get 'em out anymore...

...which sucks, BTW.

I'm not ordinarily a big fan of synthetic music, but damned if electronic stuff doesn't sound good played at high volumes. A recent couple of favorites:

Makes me feel high even when I'm not. Play 'em loud. :)

it may be theraputic for the VOLUNTARY individual, but its the ultimate civil rights violation for the rest of us, for whome, like second hand smoke, it isn't voluntary at all.

now if someone wants to deafen themselves in a room no sound can escape from and they are the sole occupant thereof, this i would have absolutely no problem with.

having to live in damd cities, through no choice of my own, i do frequently envy the deaf.
