3 choices & a reason why (if you want):

1st track off the Downward Spiral, sets the tone for the album, raw n aggressive with a brooding breakdown in the middle!


Speaks for itself:



First track off Kid A, insane, youd wonder how the album could get better after a song like this!

Boris - Pink
Raa into shoegaze, probably my fave Boris track. Such a long intro too.



Burial - South London Boroughs
I know it's an EP rather than an album, but nothing I've heard in music can even come close to those distant horns at the start.



Four Tet - Angel Echoes
Good build up, sets the tone for the album perfectly. Also, this album has one of the best closing tracks "She Just Likes To Fight".

It doesn't, imo. This is my fav on the album, love it

My Bloody Valentine - Loveless
Everytime I listen to this album the opening blows me away.



GZA - Liquid Swords
When I was little my father was famous...



Fugazi - Repeater
The first Fugazi tune I heard and still my favourite.



The Velvet Underground & Nico - The Velvet Underground & Nico
Bliss.



Neil Young - Harvest
I don't need to say anything.



Elliott Smith - Roman Candle
Such a raw piece of music.

I was going to post that.

Ministry, Psalm 69: The Way to Succeed and the Way to Suck Eggs, 1992.

RATM? These guys shit them for breakfast.

'Crown Of Horns' by Cryptopsy on 'None So Vile'. The sample is crazy.

I considered putting this in!

First thing that came to mind. It sets the scene for the album straight off.

Also lol'd at the first comment on the youtube page:

The worst dubstep album ever.

stand by me my apprentice

dieselboy mix cds have always had the best intros imo
he uses that trailer guy and makes em cinematic
even his new free mix on soundcloud has it
built the mixes up for as epic as the tend to be

The first track on the 2001 dre album. You know it's gunna be epic after that.

heh ewun aka kill the noise is a homie from here too

Track makes up most of the album, but the beginning of it always is awesome

Dj Shadow - Endtroducing

hands down one of the best songs to kick off an album.... just pure energy



This tune, thought not hype, sets the mood for the entire album.



absolute best... remember being a kid going to blockbuster music and screening this cd. heard about 20 seconds of the first tune and was instantly hooked. First tune screamed everything as a youth I wanted to hear. Electronic music, angst, rawr

mmm atr and alec always kicked off lps right
the essential intro tune to most influential dnb lp for me

if this doesn't strike heart chords you know dick about edm
