“Them Bones”
War Pigs
“You are now about to witness the strength of street knowledge” – NWA – Straight Outta Compton
Smells Like Teen Spirit
Everyone here seems to be responding with whole songs. But personally I think the best album opener of all time is a singular line:
“It’s Britney bitch”
Even if you don’t like Britney or listen to her music with any frequency, if you were around in the late 2000s you can probably hear that shit in your head the moment you read it. You don’t even need to like pop music in order to appreciate how genius that shit is.
QOTSA – Millionaire
Good Times Bad Times Led Zeppelin
Eminem opening with “White America” on the Eminem show.
Rush 2112, steve miller band Fly like an Eagle, pink floyd wish you were here or Piper at the gates of dawn.
All those intros let you know you’re in for something very special.
Thunderstruck

Moonchild, Before the Dawn Heals Us,M83
Across the night- Silverchair (Diorama)
Close second… Tip your bartender -Glassjaw (worship and tribute)
Acheron/ Unearthing the Orb off of The Sword’s Warp Riders sets the tone for the whole album so well. Can’t help but drum along every time I hear it.
Dark Fantasy – My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy
Highway Star – Deep Purple
Purple Haze – Jimi Hendrix & The Experience

Good Times Bad Times Led Zeppelin
