'Stay Together for the Kids' by Blink 182 (One of their 2 actually good songs)
'I Feel So' by Boxcar Racer has an intro that's like a minute and a half long... It sounds weird, too...but I guess it's pretty good.
'Devil in Jersey City' by Coheed & Cambria (It starts like 'EEEEshaboodee!!)
'Gone Away' by The Offspring has really cool drumming in the beginning
'The Kids Aren't Alright' by The Offspring
'Session' by The Offspring (Starts with 'FUCK! FUCK! FUCK FUCK FUUUUUCK!!)
Et cetera....

dam i wanna hear iron man, smoke on the water, and crazy train. i only learned how to play the songs on guitar but never heard the songs. those are like the best intros.

[Sneaky]

well basically the only thing i listen to is rap..but i did hear that one linkin park song from a few years ago..dammit i forgot the name..it has a pretty good bass guitar solo in the beginning..and then they talk about the moon and sun or something :shuffle:

[Mace]

Call it a cliche, fine...but I still say that 'Enter Sandman' has one of the best song intros. I'm sure I could think of more but that's on right now so it's all I can think of at the moment!

Yea...you havent heard much good rock in your day obviously... :p
You want a good bass solo? Check out the intro to All Around the World by the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Flea = amazing

That would be Place for My Head.

[Wurby Tictoc]

"Where Boys Fear to Tread" by the Pumpkins has an awesome intro, not just for the song itself but the second disc of the album as well. Very ominous.

[MGselwonK]

wurby seriuosly, try 1 post without a pumpkins reference, not that its a bad thing, but moderation is your friend :)


off the top of my head



army of darkness-amon amarth
montsegur-iron maiden
san sebastian-sonata arctica
space dye vest-dream theater

and most amusing intro, although not exactly musical, is mr money by pain of salvation

[Sezril]

Silencer - Death... Pierce Me
Burzum - Jesus' Tod
Lykathea Aflame - Land Where Sympathy Is Air (Well, not so much the intro, but the middle eastern opening riff.)

And yes, Mr. Money is gold. Get it? Hyukhyukhyuk.

[joekickass]

St. Anger-metallica
Bullet with butterfly wings-Smashing pumpkins
Smells like teen spirit-Nirvana


and Hells Bells, of course :cool: .

...... That's all besides what you guys have already said that I could add.

[Pat The Baker]

Van Halen - Jump

That is just about it, that is probably in order of how much i like the song in general, not just the intro. Good thread btw, i went through my playlist once and listened to the first 15 seconds and made a top 3 list :shuffle:

[MegaSuperdude]

Emenem has some sweet ass intros!

[Sketcher]

I was just going to make a thread about this :D

Anyway, one of best into to a song has to be in "Meaning of Life" by Disturbed. If you never heard it, you should really listen to it.

[Hurley8957]

I'm a Fake by The Used :bang:

[callmejulio]

The best intro not made with musical instruments would have to be money by pinkn floyd, just thought I'd mention it.

[MusicIsDead]

crazy train and hells bells. Nuff said. :bang:

[disturbed2]

Enter Sandman -mariano riveras entry theme, kick ass!

[Ajax]

Metallica is not a bad band but St, Anger sucks

Voodoo child has a great intro on of the best

[Codeman211]

"Where Boys Fear to Tread" by the Pumpkins has an awesome intro, not just for the song itself but the second disc of the album as well. Very ominous.
