Secondly and to hopefully put the thread back on track, I'm actually only interested in the music people listen to while coding - I just said "coding/pentesting" as I'm sure there are many here who don't code on a very regular basis. I'm mainly interested in what music you listen to while you work that doesn't break concentration, or - even better - helps you concentrate.

You are right that not all tasks are done on site, and if you're in the privacy of your own office, then by all means listen to whatever you want. As far as being on site, if you want to be taken seriously as a professional, you act professional whether on not a client is in the room with you. However, even if you're alone and you start acting like one of the 20-something kids in the mail room, the client will note it, and word will get around.
As far as what I listen to, it can be classical (Bach & Beethoven mainly) to rock, to the occasional techno.
Anything but country.
