Best IntroMusic

[Blackbird.]

I've searched and didn't find any threads similar to the keywords best intros.

Whats your favorite. Mine:

Tool - Eulogy

 

[911_Carrera]

I'm also tap tapping that intro. :tup:

Hmm...what else. "Mein Herz Brennt" by Rammstein is pretty good and "Jacqueline" by Franz Ferdinand.

 

[Event]

System of a Down - Aerials!!!!

 

[dbartucci]

Immortal Technique - Peruvian Cocaine

 

[Ev0]

Nothing compares to this for intros:

Thunderstruck - AC/DC

 

[Jimmy Enslashay]

AC/DC - Thunderstruck
Metallica - Battery
Pantera - Cemetary Gates
Rammstein - Links 2-3-4

This is pretty much another one like the Best Riff EVUH!!! thread. It's impossible to work this out. Most Pantera, Rammstein and Metallica intros are great, along with so many Rock and Metal bands that I listen to. Those are four that popped straight into my head.

 

[Iceman]

Amon Amarth - Death In Fire (best drums ever!)
Guns N' Roses - Welcome To The Jungle (can't beat this one )
In Flames - The Quiet Place

 

[Jimmy Enslashay]

Amon Amarth - Death In Fire (best drums ever!)
In Flames - The Quiet Place

Any Amon Amarth song, really. And any In Flames song from Whoracle and The Jester Race.

 

[Iceman]

Any Amon Amarth song, really.

You gotta love the intensity of their music. It impresses me every time I hear it 👍.

Edit: Just found another- Jethro Tull - Inside
Flute at its best 👍

 

[Solid Lifters]

Van Halen - "Mean Streets"

 

[Hyperglide]

Killswitch Engage - Rise Inside (Easily the best check out how the tempo get's faster and faster and faster it's awesome)

 

[Shannon]

Guns N' Roses - "Welcome To The Jungle"

Period.

 

[Blackbird.]

This is pretty much another one like the Best Riff EVUH!!! thread.

Uh not exactly. Some riffs are at the introduction and some in the middle of it and some near the end. So not really.

 

[Shannon]

Riffs are everywhere in a song. Otherwise songs would just be big groups of solos and interludes. Most intros are just riffs anyway.

 

[Blackbird.]

Yeah so riff is very vague since it's everywhere. This thread is specifically for intros in songs, riffs or not. I don't know much about guitars. I'm a drummer myself.

 

[MagpieRacer]

Bitter sweet symphony by the verve, that is fantastic.

 

[stumpydino]

dream theater - as i am 👍

 

[Flame-returns]

Eminem- My Name Is
Dizzee Rascal- Fix Up Look Sharp

Those are the only two I can think of right now. I like songs which start at once.

 

[Beelzebub]

Raining Blood - Slayer

 

[stumpydino]

QOTSA - you think i aint worth a dollar etc.etc.
Buckethead - Destroyer

gets everyone the first time

 

[Jimmy Enslashay]

Obviously you didn't read what I wrote properly. I didn't say an Intro is the same as a Riff. I said this thread is similar to the Riff thread in the way that it is impossible to create a list of the best Riff/Intro ever. Understand?

 

[Blackbird.]

Sort of. My intellectual level isn't exactly high.

 

[Carl.]

Pink Floyd - Time, and The Wall, part I ... among others.

 

[Saleen Man]

Dream Theater - The Glass Prison
Metallica - Fade To Black

Both are great.

 

[ROAD_DOGG33J]

Metallica - Welcome Home (Sanitarium)
The Offspring - Dirty Magic
The Offspring - Crossroads
In Flames - Dead Eternity
In Flames - December Flower

There are a lot of great intros on The Jester Race.

 

[donbenni]

Shallow Be Thy Game - RHCP

It's only lasts 4 seconds, but the suspense of the intro to Subterranean Homesick Blues by RHCP always gets me.

Higher Ground - Stevie Wonder

There's a wicked intro + drop in Cantaloop - US3

Banquet by Bloc Party builds nicely in a club

Let There Be Love - Nat King Cole. One of the nicest intros to a song ev4r.

Ocean Colour Scene's 100 Mile High City

Blow Your Mind, Virtual Insanity, Cosmic Girl, - Jamiroquai

The Chicken - Jaco Pastorious

The Next Episode - Dr. Dre.

Rip It Up - Razorlight

Argh, sorry i'm losing the plot, i'll leave it there.

 

[chinko]

Rip It Up is a great intro. i really like the intro to Fight Fire With Fire. if you dont know the band name then you need a kicking

 

[Powripper]

Nothing compares to this for intros:

Thunderstruck - AC/DC

[Robin]

Franz Ferdinand - Take me out...........

 

[Touring Mars]

The Police - Spirits In The Material World

Michael Nyman - Stroking/Synchronising
