Best opening album track?

Started by Victor Von Doom2 pages

At the moment I'm thinking:

Stinkfist (Ænima)
Seven Nation Army (Elephant)
Rusty Cage (Badmotorfinger)
Sweet Charity (California)
Mojo Pin (Grace)
2+2=5 (Hail to the Thief)
Everything in its Right Place (Kid A)
Black Dog (Led Zep IV)
Whole Lotta Love (Led Zep II)
Blood and Thunder (Leviathan)
Overcome (Maxinquaye)
Reise Reise (Reise Reise)
Rust Colored Sun (The End of Imagining)
My Name is Jonas (The Blue Album)
What's Going On (What's Going On)
Plainsong (Disintegration)

Delirivm Cordia but that's cheating a bit.

IAW
Mojo Pin, Black Dog, My Name is Jonas and What's Going On

Would like to add Them Bones by Alice in Chains.

Completely forgot about Rust Colored Sun.

Mine, not including those on Vic's list that I agree with:

Battery (Master of Puppets)
Them Bones (Dirt)
The Hives-Declare Guerre Nucleaire (Veni Vedi Vicious)
The Kiss (Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me)
Enter Sandman (The Black Album)
The Grudge (Lateralus)
Bombtrack (Rage Against the Machine)
He's simple, He's dumb, He's the Pilot (The Sophtware Slump)
All My Life (One By One)
Agenda Suicide (Danse Macabre)

-AC

In no particular order:

The Magic Number - De La Soul
Nineteen - Karma to Burn
Hinda65 - Brant Bjork and the Operators
13th Floor

I pressed the wrong key

I give up trying to press caps lock. I keep getting tab instead and posting half a message. I'll get some sleep and finish tomorrow!

backmask-mindless self indulgence (frankenstein girls will seem strangely sexy)

such a great opening track...you haven't been listening to the album for 30 seconds before he's already telling you to go f.uck yourself...perfect expression of the whole album's attitude.

Machine Screw - Type O Negative

Tool - Grudge
Nine inch Nails - Mr. Self Destrtuct

Green Day's american idiot on their american idiot album. i dunno why, i just think that coz its the same name as the album it starts it off and carries on the rest of the album. i cant explain it lol.

pride(in the name of love) u2 best of 1980-1990...cheating though seeing as it was the second track on the unforgetable fire

cant stand me now:the libertines
round here:counting crows
the times they are a'changin:bob dylan
paint it black:aftermath:the rolling stones
american pie :american pie:don mclean
