Greatest drum intros?

Suicidal Tendencies - Institutionalized

Sweet Peace and Time by Humble Pie has a short but sweet intro.

There is a Quiet Riot Tune that has a good drum intro , but I can't get the title out of my mental archives. The tune was on a later album and I remember the video being like a psuedo military theme...

It would be this stellar tune, which might be my favorite Quiet Riot song...

KISS - Do You Love Me was the first song that came to mind.

''Trust'' By Megadeth, off ''Cryptic Wrightings'' love this album. I know, alot of people don't like it but it is my favorite.

For the record (pun intended), I think it's great. It definitely receives much too much flack. Welcome Jessrox.

That's the one!

Death - Scavenger Of Human Sorrow \m/

I always thought the drum intro to Iron Maiden's Run To The Hills was awesome.

Iron Maiden-Flight of I

Alice Cooper-Billion Dollar Babies, the whole song is based around Neal Smith's drumming

That's a good one!

The Alice Cooper Band also has one of the best bass intros of all time on Gutter Cats vs. The Jets

Cryptic writings is indeed amazing. Vortex is one of my favourite megadeth songs

Cryptic Writings is definitely an underrated album, some really great tracks on that. To that end, good shout on the 'Trust' intro. On a similar note, love the drum intros to 'Skin O' My Teeth' and 'Addicted To Chaos'.

Good call on the ''Skin of my teeth'' I have a rare ''promotional use only'' cd single of Skin of my teeth. And it is one of my all time favorite Megadeth tunes.

What about Slayers "Devine intevention" intro?

Another song with a very cool drum intro:

Not to mention the badass bassline.

Nice one!!!!

Jeff Olsen is a very unique drummer, great fluid style, always thought he understood "swing" as well as "plod".
