do you listen to music while doing homework, reading, or just work in general?

I wish I could put some ambient music on or something while studying or doing this huge ass paper. But I find it distracts me and kind of makes me lose my train of thought... I'm one of those people who needs relatively no noise to concentrate the only exception for that is when I'm on the train, I put my headphones on and usually read

dark ambient jazz sounds nice... name some artists!
if im trying to concentrate on something, music usually don't help with it.

For me, when I study or read, which is alot, I have to listen to something that either doesn't have lyrics or I don't know the lyrics to.
Here's my usual study music: Agalloch - The Mantle (rainy day metal) Shpongle Celtic Fire (an upbeat group that plays traditional jigs and reels) Mozart Wagner Tchaikofsky

Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't. Depends on my mood. Usually it'll be jazz if I do.

There is very little I can listen to while writing papers and stuff. I've found that Sound Tribe Sector 9 and Explosions in the Sky are the best...

all the time, while doing work, reading, even while taking exams. i find it's easier to concentrate at least for me but i doubt everyone can ace an exam while blasting slipknot's iowa.

I have music playing all the time. On the way to school, inbetween classes, at work, on the way home, at home, in bed.

I listen to music nearly incessantly; so, I'll say yes to all. There would be no life without it.

it depends, if im working on things that involve complicated calculations and a lot of attention i like to study as quietly as possible, with as many cigarettes as possible 
Bullshit work deserves some music to ease the monotony but goddamn id kill to have more definition classes again.

I study/workout/do physical labor to the same kind of music: heavy rock/metal.
Some bands I listen to:
Pantera Slayer Sepultura White/Rob Zombie ... etc.
If it's not that, it's some fast paced techno. Usually drum and bass.

Music takes my mind away too easily. If I read book or need to get some thinking work done I just cant listen anything. Other than that and few silent moments in morning and right before going to sleep there has to be some music playing in my home.
When at public places, where bad music is sometimes played, I rather ignore it and let the latest tune that catched my mind play in my head.
My choice of music is something around dnb or ambient.
