Worst & Best: Intro.

What do you think is the worst intro you have ever heard??
At the moment For me (even though I like them heaps) The intro to 'The Game' by Disturbed is awful...

And the Best for me at the moment would have to be The intro to 'The Warmth' by Incubus. Absolutely Brilliant Intro/Song.

Forums: The Bar,

time and time again by paparoach, that album was so dissapointing compared to infest.

Best: Everything on Placebo's "Without You I'm Nothing"

Worst: Most Nu-metal and Power Pop songs. And Avril Lavigne

Especially the Intro to that Goddam 'Sk8ter Boi' Song of hers....
Her and her Fucking boys...

dude I play that on guitar, hehe, its so easy to play

please lets not bring up avril lavigne
well i hate that intro on complicated on the video for it
where shes skating and there are her 'boys' sitting down she goes up to them and says
something like wass up boys and one of them says im so bored then she says dude do you want to go crash the mall? and they are like ok then the song starts! that is so annoying! her and her 'boys'!

they do that to create the ilusion she has friends....

Casual Affair by Tonic (Cd-Lemon Parade)-just because it's cool and i'm obsessed with them.

Uhh that's the best one by the way.

Thought so:P

So whats your worst Soph_ie?

you'd think that anyone who picks a fight over improper use of capital letters would be capable of putting the capital letters in the right places himself.

obviously not.

What did i do? You're angry??

i'm not angry. i just find what you wrote in the have forum highly amusing.

Well, I said I wasn't that great at grammar!!

Anyway, the guy deserved it. I don't The Have are that great, but sheesh...

I meant to say, "I don't THINK The Have are that great"

DJ William (who isn't a dj) is clearly still mastering English.

I like making up new words, or pronouncing words differently

Saul, were you saying that in a light-hearted way, or a 'Man I hate that Will bastard' way, because I assumed we had buried the hatchet...??

why would you bury a perfectly good tool? :P

the best are...

just a phase - incubus
home again - shihad
nil by mouth - blindspott
everlong - foo fighters
dammit - blink 182 (haha yes i love blink!!!!)
fade to black - metallica

i dont really have any worst ones in mind... if its a bad intro i probly just turn off and ignore the song! :P

yeah, Just a Phase has an awesome 'Intro'...finally someone, apart from me, reconises it..

And the Intro to Nil By Mouth is good too....But what about the stunning Intro to Mind Dependancy???

those are my fave too! moosus!
and my worst is anything by avril lavigne

yes and how can i forget that stunning intro to mind dependency - blindspott!
i cant get enough of it! thats for mentioning it lostprophet!
and i also like ilah (silent war) intro!

//dammit - blink 182 (haha yes i love blink!!!!)
//everlong - foo fighters
//home again - shihad

good choices. but i think adams songs intro is better than dammits.

//i think adams songs intro is better than dammit.

no way! dammit is there best song and by far the best intro! it was the first thing i ever learnt to play on the ge'tar so i guess i like it more because of that. :P

//But what about the stunning Intro to Mind Dependancy???

yeah i guess ur right... it does have a pretty wiked inrto... but i still prefer nil by mouth, i dunno its just me. the songs so wiked and wen ever i hear the intro i just sorta lax out no matter where i am... it may sound weird but wen i went to pukekohe for the V8s last year it was sortve my relaxing song cause even tho i had my discman with me it decided to break and not play cds and the reception for th radio was really crap so the guys over the back from me (we were in tents) were rich barstards and they played blindspott non-stop in there brand new SS ute and cause i was sortve a bit down bout my current status with my girlfriend it was the only song i really had to keep me sane... but i wont go on... that song means alot to me!

Jungle. That is a badass intro.

And crazy train , Diary of a madman and sweet child.

what about Stairway to Heaven? Or Another Brick In The Wall.

yeah those too.

the 2 most over-played songs ever

So? they're great songs, you're in denial if you don't acknowledge that.

of course they are, they're just over-played
A lot of people only know Led Zep & Pink Floyd for those songs, which is bad because they've got other great songs

Anything with a drum or bass intro is cool

yeah like Skunk Anansie - Charlie Big Potato. Damn fine song.

collision faith no more
hit the lights metallica
nothing pacifier
loud love searching with my good eye closed soundgarden

I think 'Nothing' by Pacifier is one of the best songs on their new album....

I like QOTSA's Intros on 'Songs For The Deaf'....all the little radio Skits.
but i really like the guitar intro to Hangin' Tree and The Sky is Fallin'...
Also (as i already mentioned before) I love the intro to Mind Dependancy by Blindspott.
And Just a phase by Incubus...also Shinobi vs dragon ninja by the Lost Prophets and the intro to Much against everyones advice by Soulwax...theres lots more but my memory aint too good..

oh and the Comfort Me intro is good...
Same with the bass intro to Korn's Here to Stay, and Radioheads intro to Talk show host.
Those are all good.

here to stay, is a guitar intro.

Good intro = The damned smash it up part 1. beautiful!

The warmth by incubis has such a cool intro. Its real killer whales it sounds so spooky. Also the intro to Blindspotts mind dependancy, one of those maori shell blowing thingies. Also weezers 'say it aint so' has a cool intro

I find the whales at the beginning of The Warmth annoying. They're sorta cheesey & don't fit in with the song.

but i like it!

I like it aswell!

Gomez - Blue moon rising off Liquid Skin. If you listen at the begginning of the track you can clearly hear a joint/spliff being lit and smoked/toked on.... I thought that was very Gomezish and nice.

I'm quite fond of lots of Tool intros, heres a list:

H (Possibly one of the best intros ever to one of the greatest songs ever)
Forty Six & 2
Stinkfist
Jimmy
Pushit
Third Eye
Sober
Ticks and Leeches (great drum work from danny carey)
The Patient (Love the very subtle light palm muted guitar with delay)
Schism

and other good intros:

A Perfect Circle: All their intros are pure excellence that are far too advanced for Blink 182

silverchair: "Untitled", "Do You Feel The Same", "Emotion Sickness", "Miss You Love", "Shade", "Suicidal Dream", "Israels son", "Paint Pastel Princess", "Freak", "Learn to hate", "Abuse me", "Nobody Came" Öne way mule, my favourite thing ,i could go on so i think i'll stop before i get carried away.

K's Choice: Not an Addict

Pacifier: Especially Walls, run, stranger, semi-normal, home, bullitproof.

Shihad: The Metal Song, Intro/Brightest Star, Wait and See, Home Again, Debs Night Out, You Again, Silvercup, Bitter, Stations, I only said (love those keyboards), Just like everybody else, sport and religion, pretty much almost everything.

that is an excellent choice of tool songs achilles :). and i agree to your comment on H, it is one of the greatest songs ever!

for the moment

my fav intro: hallowed be thy name - iron maiden
worst intro: sum 41 - that rock is what we're all about song

Best--> Everlong by the Foos

Worst--> Wonderful by Everclear *shudder*

yess yess yess go the foos!!!
everlong is my fave!

Everlong at the BDO was by far the best moment of my life! ;)
