    That riff that kicks in at the 0.21 mark if fucking gold! They always play it too fast live though, kind of kills the groove...

    YES!

    It should be noted once again that opening baseline is a classic...

    Cath… by Death Cab is a favorite

  • It has to be "Sweet Jane" by the Velvet Underground. The way the cartoonish intro plays before the guitar riff... amazing

    The opening 30 seconds of Superstition by Stevie Wonder is one of my favorites. I could listen to that on a loop and it wouldn't get old 
  • Cath… by Death Cab is a favorite 
    This is a good one! Especially the album cut. The radio trims a bit off the front. No idea why.

    my favorite is Goin’ Against Your Mind by Built to Spill. An awesome 2 minutes.

    I went to one of Fugazi's concerts back in the day in DC. Yes it was hot and sticky in the 9:30 Club but that's the kind of thing one does when one is young and full energy.  Those were the good old days and tickets 🎟  were $10-$12 bucks.

    In college, I used to run my record player through my Deluxe Reverb amp.  I'd set the amp in the window of my sixth floor dorm room and when someone walk by down on the side walk I put on this song cranked way the hell up and then faded it out after the intro:

    "The Big Takeover" as well! The way it builds and then breaks like a big punk wave crashing!

    I mean, Pearl Jam’s ‘Go’. Not sure about the rest of you, but the first time I heard it I was blown away. Makes me think of those reaction videos on YouTube. Where the listener hears a song for the first time. Would love to see one with ‘Go’.

    Animal for me.  That hits you like a sledge hammer and keeps going.

    The funky baseline on this song leads throughout and makes it so unique.  It's really funky 😎 cool.

    Primus always had great openings, with the bass line, that awesome guitar and the drums?  The OG lineup is just fun to listen.
