Estradasphere is the most intense music to listen to while tripping, or just plain sober. It changes so much, from hard metal, to salsa, in 8 measures. But they do everything, like evil carnival music, super mario tunes, surf rock, EVERYTHING!.
Also, if you like listening to Tool while tripping, try King Crimson. And if you like eastern type music try anything from Bollywood, or go find this kick ass cd called "Tabla Beat Science".
Also, while extremely sideways on mushrooms, i got to see Praxis live at Bonnaroo, and i was about 5 feet away from Buckethead when he started to do his little shiver thing. Praxis is kind of hard to listen to while tripping, but if you can get used to it, it is great..
Also, Mr. bungle or aphex twin is great to blow someones mind with if they havent heard them before while tripping.
And for those seemingly apocalyptic and epic trips (i hope some know what i am talking about) Secret Chiefs 3 "Book of horizons" or "Book M" will make you feel like you are in a movie or about to save the world.

I think a lot of Opeth could be appreciated by a lot of people. A lot of songs like For Absent Friends or Patterns in the Ivy, Credence, Harvest, Drapery Falls etc. are good examples of their classical/non-death metal stuff.
Anymore, I find that Opeth is the only music to be intense enough or worthwhile to listen to these days- they're really good musicians and the songwriting has an emotional quality i've never experienced with most kinds of music. Plus all of their songs are "epic," ranging usually from 10-20 minutes in length - they take you on an awesome, huge journey.
But when tripping... I too usually cant pay enough attention to appreciate any music. :P
But a lot of people should find those songs to be very moving, well-structured and well-played songs. I definately recomend trying them out... then getting into their death metal stuff too (which is also, very awesome)

I posted this in another thread, but I can't seem to get enough of music when shroomin. To me it seems to make all of the difference in the world, and definitely influences the nature of the trip. Personally I like positive and spiritual trips so that's the kind of music I prefer. I tried some heavier stuff and I could just feel negative energy seething around me, wasn't pleasant for me.
The music I really love is Indian such as Tabla Beat Science, DJ Cheb I Sabbah and even the Thievery Corporation. But Acid Jazz does well too. If you are into the ethereal sounds, try Zero 7. They are pretty mellow but very layered and it just seems to really enhance the CEV for me. Some Modest Mouse songs are good because of the varied musical structure and very eclectic sounds. Not telling anyone to stay away from the death-metal scene, but for me and my two cents, the mushroom is like a sacred instrument meant for spiritual advancement, and music has a huge profound effect on us at a sub-conscious level. Studies have shown that classical music and even techno (because of it's repetitive structure) has been very beneficial for memory in rats, whereas Heavy Metal produced the worst environment for learning. Since I take the trip as a learning experience, I want to facilitate the learning as much as possible. Cheers everyone

Shpongle and Ozric Tentacles. That's all you need. No other artists come close to these two while tripping. If you can make it through an entire Ozric Tentacles album while on a good dose, then you're good in my book.
To all those who don't know Ozrics, check them out, now!.

Something that I don't think was listed before which I really enjoy listening to while tripping is Just Breathe by Telepopmusik, the song gives great vibes and makes you feel pretty chill tripping or not.
Other then that some of my other favorites are of course Shpongle, Infected Mushroom (Mushi Mushi rocks), Velvet Acid Christ (Fade Away is one of my favorites), Jimi Hendrix, Voyager by Daft punk, and the Flaming Lips (I love the "woooongs" in Yoshimi verses the Robots). It all really depends on what I'm in the mood for.

Music is absolutly essential, and a good way to direct some of your energy.
-Beatles -Floyd -Beatles -Dead -jazz/funk -funky jazz -Rush -Anything that is real "upbeat" and happy -Nature sounds if you want to go in that direction

I feel like the only one, but I am a little dissapointed with psychedelics and music. When I first started listening to music on weed I was like "This is awesome! I bet tripping is even better!" But on shrooms and mescaline music sort of stopped being music and becomming just sound, one dimmensional sound. With the time dilation it is like I didn't even listen to it anyway, it becomes so fleeting that I just don't really feel it that deeply, like listening to music while drunk in strange way. I mean it is cool to help set my mood, but I just haven't enjoyed it as much as with weed or even sober. It was pretty cool on MDA though, but then again everything seems cool rolling.

I have found some music sucks, and some is cool. Ever since tripping one night, I have heard music completely different now. It's like I can feel bass and it somehow resonates through walls much clearer for me now. Then again I am a musician so maybe it's all relative. A few songs in particular that I really liked were:
Sublime- "Live at E's" Modest Mouse- "Ocean Breathes Salty" and "The View" Zero 7- "Destiny" F.C. Kahuna- "Fear of Guitars" Thievery Corporation- "State of The Union" The Dining Rooms- "Numero Deux" Brookville- "Justine"
Just a few starters

i'm not too huge on the newest modest mouse album, but "this is a long drive for someone with nothing to think about" is bad ass.
and i agree about radiohead's kid a. "idioteque" is the trippiest IMO. i also enjoy OK Computer, it always inspires very sparkly imagery in me. amnesiac is fun tripping too.. same with hail to the thief. dunno about the first two, the bends is probably chill.
i'm a huge radiohead freak tho
check out some boards of canada, praxis, sigur ros, depeche mode's "violator" has some bad ass tracks..

Isn't Radiohead's music the best on just about ANY drug though? Both The Bends and OK Computer are great on psychedelics, because both albums are so texturized, ethereal sounding. Some of the stuff on Kid A or Hail To The Thief would be a little too intense for my shroom trips.
