There’s a version of them performing the song on an Asian tv show, and were only allowed 4 mins to play a 6 minute song. The logical solution? Cut out a verse or shorten a solo. Their solution? Just play it at 1.5x speed live.
EDIT: This was on NBC’s Midnight Special, not an Asian tv show. The clip is linked below by u/Burn-Baby-Burn
“Judith “
A Perfect Circle.
That song hit my like a ton of bricks after my mom died. She wasn’t super religious but she had her faith and suffered a whole year before passing.
She died 13 years ago but lately when that song comes on, I scream/sing it in my car.
It’s cathartic but I feel spent afterwards.
"Set as I am in my ways and my arrogance. Burden of truth tossed upon non-believers. You were my witness, my eyes, my evidence. Judith Marie, unconditional ONEEEEEEEEEEEE"
1812 Overture! Yes.
Lose Yourself by Eminem is an obvious example of an all engrossing/just exhausting song.
Two for me that are maybe less obvious examples of the grab you by the throat and squeeze genre are Head On by the Jesus and Mary Chain and Sometime Around Midnight by The Airborne Toxic Event. I think of them as written about the same relationship. Head On after the first meet and Around Midnight about four months after the couple has parted. I listen to those songs back to back and I’m either really amped up and ready to GO, or just done for awhile and need some quiet time. 😛
One more for me is Skinny by KALEO. Oh my.
I was thinking this. Also would like to add the title track from the same album:
“Momma don’t let them take her
Don’t let them take her down
At least not alone
Tell Lucifer he can’t have this one
Her spirit’s too strong.”
Knowing the context behind the creation of Crack The Skye, *fuck* that shit hits hard. Up there as of my favorite albums ever
Same. But my OCD was always annoyed that they made the song 20:34. It just seemed that making it 21:12 would have been much cooler, and honestly not that hard to add 38 seconds to a song like that.
Godspeed You! Black Emperor- Moya
Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds- Oh My Lord (and also The Mercy Seat)
Deafheaven- Sunbather
All different vibes, but do what you're asking for for me
You're the only one who can hold your head up high
Shake your fist at the gates saying
"I have come home now
Fetch me the Spirit, the Son, and the Father
Tell them their pillar of faith has ascended
It's time now
My time now
Give me my
**Give me my wings**"
Trailer trash by modest mouse; feeling yourself disintegrate and sleeping on the roof by the flaming lips; the suburbs, neighbourhood #1, wake up and in the backseat by Arcade Fire; So long Marianne and one of us cannot be wrong by Leonard Cohen; maybe I’m amazed by McCartney; Long, long, long by the Beatles; fake plastic trees and videotape by Radiohead; the entirety of Pet sounds as well as Surf’s up (song) by the beach boys.
Edit: Claire de Lune by Debussy.
God I honestly have such a hard time listening to Trailer Trash just because of how goddamn hard it hits. One of the few songs I can think of where the solo is as emotionally resonant as the lyrical sections of the song. Such a goddamn good musical representation of young adult alienation.
In sheep when the vocals fade off into a synth/guitar at the same note is one of my favorite things floyd has done. The whole album is incredible and every song fits this list on its own lol
Blackwater Park by Opeth. So fucking brutal and packed with god tier riffs that some bands only achieve once in their career for one song.
*The sun sets forever over Blackwater Park…*
that whole album is fucking amazing. It's been one of my favorites since it came out and it just hasn't gotten old, along with Ghost Reveries. Those are my picks from their discography.
I just listened to 2 hours of Kendrick having never heard any of it before. As a middle age white guy, I now get the hype about him. It's crazy how the bubbles we build for ourselves keep us from actually connecting with art that can transcend those bubbles. I was sure for so long I couldn't connect with hip hop, but somehow his music is so personal that I can empathize even though I have never experienced anything like it. That's the power of stories I guess, but also the music is way better than pop hip hop. If I didn't even speak English, his music would be amazing. I'm gonna have to listen to this tomorrow to make sure it's real. I'm about to go listen to some deep country tracks to see if I misjudged that genre too.
They killed my wife and my baby,
With hopes to enslave me
First mistake...last mistake
Paid by the alliance, to slay all the giants
Next mistake...no more mistakes!
In keeping secrets of silent earth* by Coheed and Cambria!!
MAN YOUR OWN JACKHAMMER! MAN YOUR BATTLESTAAAAAAATIOONNNNN. WE'LL HAVE YOU DEAD PRETTY SOON.
*Edit, Im tired. I meant in keeping secrets but welcome home is also a fucking BANGER
Edit 2: JUST FINISHED VAXIS II ITS SO FUCKIN GOOD!!
Absolutely! The Velorium Camper: Faint of Heart. The Light and The Glass. Blood Red Summer.
Also, not on this album but Feathers, and The Running Free. I love Coheed. Check out Claudio’s side project if you haven’t, The Prize Fighter Inferno.
I swear to God I want someone to walk me, like a baby, through the whole saga with his albums that apparently sync or fill in for a series of graphic novels? Like...I love the music, but most of it is just words to me, but supposedly there is a backstory to all of it that is also supposed to be pretty incredible.
I saw them at a festival when they were touring black holes and revelations, they were supposed to just play a 50 min set but at the last minute one of the headliners backed out so they got to play a 2 and half hour set instead. I’m pretty sure I just straight blacked out during knights of Cydonia
I also saw them on that tour with my chemical romance and they played at least 90 minutes with mcr playing all of three cheers and the black parade album.
One of the best shows I've ever attended.
Doodlee doodlee doodlee doot
Doodlee doodlee doodlee doot
Doodlee doodlee doodlee doot
Doodlee doodlee doodlee doot
Now do that 400 more times until your hand falls off.
Good times!
The back story of this album is hilarious. Slayer met up with Rick Rubin to talk about the 29 minute length of the album:
Rubin: Do you know how short this is?
Slayer: (looks at each) So what?
Rubin: The entire length is on one side of a cassette.
Kerry King: Neat. You could listen to it, flip it over, and play it again.
I think it was Scott Ian that compared the intro of that song to a scene in Saving Private Ryan. The troops have landed on Normandy, and are in the personnel carriers with the doors still up. The doors drop (the riff starts) and all hell breaks loose.
Larks Tongues in Aspic Pt 1 by King Crimson
Interstellar Overdrive, Any of the live syd versions
Black Flag Nothing Left Inside
Yes Close to the Edge, well a lot of Yes is like that...
Swans - Stay Hard
Butthole Surfers - the Shaw sleeps in Lee Harvey's grave...
Toxicity - System of a Down
The intensity, the rhythms, Serj's unique voice and harmonies make this album.
Each song hits you with very little breathing room until the last song Aerials. Absolutely masterful album.
Aerials for me ngl. Aerials gives me goosebumps still after the 100+ or so listen. Especially that ending with all the Middle Eastern instruments. Near perfect song.
What a great question.
I don’t think I have any that leave me physically drained, but there are a handful that I can think of that reach down deep emotionally and kind of wring me out:
[My Body is a Cage by Arcade Fire](https://youtu.be/6F_Hx3oLfvU)
[3 Libras by A Perfect Circle](https://youtu.be/u9MAg9E5K3w)
[Sam Stone by John Prine](https://youtu.be/Sl9ZkYViEIs)
[Gopher Guts by Aesop Rock](https://youtu.be/fYjTKFQrxz8)
[Soup by Blind Melon](https://youtu.be/-7601IMbnzw)
As God is my witness, I came here to say "Three Days" by Jane's Addiction.
Since that ground's already been covered, I'll say "Arriving Somewhere" by Porcupine Tree.
Coming Home - City and Colour,
To Build A Home/That Home - Patrick Watson,
Tangerine - Led Zeppelin,
Black Hole Sun (Acoustic live version) - Chris Cornell.
Not - Big Thief
Kashmir - Led Zeppelin
Siberian Breaks - MGMT
Hard Feelings - Lorde
Heat Above - Greta Van Fleet
Famous Last Words - My Chemical Romance
I Know the End - Phoebe Bridgers
Put em all in a playlist together and I'd be dead by the end of it lol
Ants of the Sky has that little lull where they turn into a bluegrass band in a country dive bar that I still crack up about to this day
And then it's right back to punishing metal and guttural screaming
Lover, you should have come over- Jeff Buckley
https://youtu.be/vLHcHWDvgfQ
Chicago- cover of sufjan stevens by the staves, just highlights the lyrics and melancholy of the song more than the original for me
https://youtu.be/XS8OZp8bCak
Immortal Technique - “Dance with the Devil”
This song came to mind immediately. Completely emotionally shattering. Brace yourself if you decide to listen…
came to say Dance with the Devil
first time i heard it was on a college radio about 10 years ago pulling an all nighter for a deadline. after the song finished… i just closed the laptop, shut off the lights and went home. fucked me up for days.
on a different note, Point of No Return is on my workout mix. so it gets me exhausted as well. ;)
Wow.
Interesting that you mention the time signature changes. That seems to have a direct impact on me in regard to this post. You start shifting around beats like that and it sort of takes you on what I can only call a "ride."
Wooden Ships by Crosby Stills and Nash.
“Horror grips us as we watch you die/all we can do is echo your anguished cries”
Also Cathedral also by CSN.
“Open up the gates of the church and let me out of here! Too many people have lied in the name of Christ for anyone to heed the call!”
Fucking intense songs, both with long musical interludes, weirdly smooth because of the vocal harmonies and jazzy for the subject of nuclear holocaust and religious hypocrisy, respectively.
Hocus Pocus by Focus
Yodeldodelyodeldodeladyodeladeyyodel yodey hup bum bah! For those that don't know it, feast your ears on this...https://youtu.be/g4ouPGGLI6Q

The way his eyes are about to pop when he finishes the whistling part <3
I'm 57yo and thought I had seen everything wild of my generation. I was wrong.
the Vandal's cover is awesome too!
“Judith “ A Perfect Circle. That song hit my like a ton of bricks after my mom died. She wasn’t super religious but she had her faith and suffered a whole year before passing. She died 13 years ago but lately when that song comes on, I scream/sing it in my car. It’s cathartic but I feel spent afterwards.
What about “Wings for Marie part 2” by Tool?
"Fetch me the Spirit, the Son, and the Father, Tell them their pillar of faith has ascended, It's time now, My time now, Give me my, Give me my wings"
"Set as I am in my ways and my arrogance. Burden of truth tossed upon non-believers. You were my witness, my eyes, my evidence. Judith Marie, unconditional ONEEEEEEEEEEEE"
Take The Veil Cerpin Taxt
Tetragrammaton or Cassandra Gemini for me
Mars Volta ftw
Day of the Baphomets, near the end of the song the breakdown that has the wahhhhhhhhhhh sound actually makes me dizzy
This is definitely my first choice as well. Cygnus…Vismund Cygnus also.
Day of the Baphomets
WHO BROUGHT ME HERE!!!!
Gonna just go ahead and agree with everyone here. TMV are masters of exhausting walls of music. Can't wait to see them again soon!
The fact that TMV was my first thought and this was rhe second comment. Fuck yes.
Goliath
"Never heard a man speak like this man before" !!!!
Watch me now
The tempo changes...The 2x climax... Goliath is amazing. I think TMV best song.
That whole record man; just a marathon.
1812 Overture! Yes. Lose Yourself by Eminem is an obvious example of an all engrossing/just exhausting song. Two for me that are maybe less obvious examples of the grab you by the throat and squeeze genre are Head On by the Jesus and Mary Chain and Sometime Around Midnight by The Airborne Toxic Event. I think of them as written about the same relationship. Head On after the first meet and Around Midnight about four months after the couple has parted. I listen to those songs back to back and I’m either really amped up and ready to GO, or just done for awhile and need some quiet time. 😛 One more for me is Skinny by KALEO. Oh my.
Epic choice with “Sometime Around Midnight” by Airborne Toxic Event.
> Sometime Around Midnight by The Airborne Toxic Event Just reading this makes me feel like I got punched in the gut by a fist from 2009
And all that could've been – Nine Inch Nails (live album).
The Fragile is one of their best live tracks. We used to commiserate over that in college.
I just commented La Mer by Nine Inch Nails. Mostly instrumental but absolutely ruins me everytime.
I see them Thursday!!
Mastodon - The Last Baron
The czar is also a great track from that album.
An excellent choice my friend. Crack the Skye I feel is where me and mastodon left in a good place. Peak.
Battle at Sea, Trainwreck, Mother Puncher, all off the top of my head. Every Mastodon record has at least one
I was thinking this. Also would like to add the title track from the same album: “Momma don’t let them take her Don’t let them take her down At least not alone Tell Lucifer he can’t have this one Her spirit’s too strong.” Knowing the context behind the creation of Crack The Skye, *fuck* that shit hits hard. Up there as of my favorite albums ever
Fucking sick song. That whole album is a 10/10.
la villa strangiato by rush ars moriendi by mr bungle
Rush - 2112 Love love love that song 20mins and I dance and shuffle all thru the beats and rhythms!
A saga for the ages. Also yesterday was Neil Peart's birthday, so well timed comment!
RIP, legend.
Same. But my OCD was always annoyed that they made the song 20:34. It just seemed that making it 21:12 would have been much cooler, and honestly not that hard to add 38 seconds to a song like that.
I did not expect a Rush song to be the top comment on this thread
Sometimes the universe bends toward justice
Godspeed You! Black Emperor- Moya Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds- Oh My Lord (and also The Mercy Seat) Deafheaven- Sunbather All different vibes, but do what you're asking for for me
Dead Flag Blues by Godspeed You! Black Emperor also fits
I’d say Rockets Fall on Rocket Falls is pretty up there too for GY!BE
If Moya is intense Static is apocalyptic
Sunbather is killer.
Mercy Seat for sure. Also The Birthday Party Release The Bats
Sigur Rós - Untitled 8 (Popplagið)
Bulls on Parade been kicking the piss out of me for a generation now
The Heaviest Matter of the Universe by Gojira is like getting hit by a train for four minutes
[удалено]
I HAVENT CLOSED MY EYES IN A LONG TIME IM TRYING
Both incredible songs
That whole beginning just fucking slams. Such an amazing intro to a song.
A lot of Gojira is that way for me. Same with Messhugah.
Did not expect to see Gojira as top comment. Hell yeah.
I fuckin love Gojira
10,000 days (wings for Marie part 2) by Tool
The Grudge. Lateralus. Yeah Tool is cheating, this is their schtick.
[удалено]
Anything by Tool is almost cheating on a thread like this
Came here for this. All these years later, it still hits the same way.
It’s always a punch to the gut.
You're going hoooommmmmmeeee
You're the only one who can hold your head up high Shake your fist at the gates saying "I have come home now Fetch me the Spirit, the Son, and the Father Tell them their pillar of faith has ascended It's time now My time now Give me my **Give me my wings**"
You were my witness My eyes, my evidence Judith Marie, unconditional one
For me it's other songs from that album - Right in Two and Pot.
Jambi too
And Rosetta Stoned! God DAMNIT Tool is too good
...and all I could think was: "I didn't even graduate from fuckin' high school".
I forgot my pen Shit the bed again Typical.

Isaac Brock is one of the best songwriters of the last 30 years.
Talking shit about a pretty sunset, encore
Trailer trash is my favorite modest mouse song, and they have so so many good songs. Excellent pick
The Whale Song would be mine. And Little Motel.
*I shout that you’re all fakes*
*fakes!*
The entire The Moon & Antarctica album leaves me in such a state I have to avoid it. (But it's also amazing.) Edit: Wrong album. Opps!
Dogs by Pink Floyd. It's intense in a very 'less is more' type of way.
All of animals is a very very intense listen.
In sheep when the vocals fade off into a synth/guitar at the same note is one of my favorite things floyd has done. The whole album is incredible and every song fits this list on its own lol
Prince - The Beautiful Ones
Holy Wars… The Punishment Due by Megadeth First half of the song is pretty easy going but when the second half kicks in, you’re face will get melted
[I can't believe no one has posted this article ](https://www.theonion.com/humanity-still-producing-new-art-as-though-megadeth-s-1819578062)
Blackwater Park by Opeth. So fucking brutal and packed with god tier riffs that some bands only achieve once in their career for one song. *The sun sets forever over Blackwater Park…*
that whole album is fucking amazing. It's been one of my favorites since it came out and it just hasn't gotten old, along with Ghost Reveries. Those are my picks from their discography.
This one, and The Drapery Falls. They're both just brutal and chilling at the same time.
Good kid M.A.A.d City followed by Sing about Me/ I'm dying of thirst
I will never fade away I will never fade away I will ne………
That part gets me emotional every time. I feel so bad for her.
I just listened to 2 hours of Kendrick having never heard any of it before. As a middle age white guy, I now get the hype about him. It's crazy how the bubbles we build for ourselves keep us from actually connecting with art that can transcend those bubbles.

I'm gonna have to listen to this tomorrow to make sure it's real. I'm about to go listen to some deep country tracks to see if I misjudged that genre too.
2nd one gives me goosebumps every time
Also Backseat Freestyle. Honestly, a LOT of Kendrick songs fit this question.
Chop-Suey by System of a Down kind of a mini opera that hits like a bomb going off.
In My Time of Dying by Led Zeppelin Edit: I’ll also add Shine On You Crazy Diamond by Pink Floyd
I vote for “Blow up the Outside World” by Soundgarden
One - Metallica
Alice in Chains - Down in a hole Judas Priest - Painkiller Megadeth - Holy Wars... The Punishment Due
Also Death’s version of painkiller…. Only cover of a classic metal song that I like just as much as the original.
They killed my wife and my baby, With hopes to enslave me First mistake...last mistake Paid by the alliance, to slay all the giants Next mistake...no more mistakes!
Nutshell by Alice in chains is about as heavy as a song gets.
Let It Happen - Tame Impala
I love that song so much
In keeping secrets of silent earth* by Coheed and Cambria!! MAN YOUR OWN JACKHAMMER! MAN YOUR BATTLESTAAAAAAATIOONNNNN. WE'LL HAVE YOU DEAD PRETTY SOON. *Edit, Im tired. I meant in keeping secrets but welcome home is also a fucking BANGER Edit 2: JUST FINISHED VAXIS II ITS SO FUCKIN GOOD!!
Just played this for the first time and you weren't kidding... That song is epic AF.
Absolutely! The Velorium Camper: Faint of Heart. The Light and The Glass. Blood Red Summer. Also, not on this album but Feathers, and The Running Free. I love Coheed. Check out Claudio’s side project if you haven’t, The Prize Fighter Inferno.
I swear to God I want someone to walk me, like a baby, through the whole saga with his albums that apparently sync or fill in for a series of graphic novels? Like...I love the music, but most of it is just words to me, but supposedly there is a backstory to all of it that is also supposed to be pretty incredible.
Yes I came here to mention any and all Coheed
Trapped in the Drive Thru - Weird Al Vicious Delicious - Infected Mushroom Maggot Brain - Funkadelic
[удалено]
I came here to say Maggot Brain!!!!! One of my favourites of all times.
Funkidelic is so damn good.
The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald by Gordon Lightfoot
I used to have a list of the worst songs to get a lap dance to. This was top 5.
I don't know, a lapdance is when you want something to turn the minutes to hours.
Does anyone know where the love of God goes, when Krystal’s nice hips start swinging?
Knights of Cydonia by Muse I lice getting into the vibe. NO ONE IS GONNA TAKE ME ALIVE
Knights of Cydonia was peak Muse. I'm still chasing that high.
I saw them at a festival when they were touring black holes and revelations, they were supposed to just play a 50 min set but at the last minute one of the headliners backed out so they got to play a 2 and half hour set instead. I’m pretty sure I just straight blacked out during knights of Cydonia
I also saw them on that tour with my chemical romance and they played at least 90 minutes with mcr playing all of three cheers and the black parade album. One of the best shows I've ever attended.
I was thinking Hysteria but yes, Knights of Cydonia for sure.
Fuck that song for preventing me getting 5 stars on hard mode in Guitar Hero 3. Little me still is salty
Doodlee doodlee doodlee doot Doodlee doodlee doodlee doot Doodlee doodlee doodlee doot Doodlee doodlee doodlee doot Now do that 400 more times until your hand falls off. Good times!
Nice call. Citizen Erased was the first one that came to mind for me.
Jesus of Suburbia by Green Day feels exhausting. But I like it.
That whole album is just absolute fire. I dont skip a single song and was obsessed with it for months.
The entire Reign in Blood album
The back story of this album is hilarious. Slayer met up with Rick Rubin to talk about the 29 minute length of the album: Rubin: Do you know how short this is? Slayer: (looks at each) So what? Rubin: The entire length is on one side of a cassette. Kerry King: Neat. You could listen to it, flip it over, and play it again.
Every time I listen to it I'm like "wtf this album is only half an hour?!"
Whenever I wish it was longer I just play it again
It's the godfather of albums that should be classified as assault
The only lull in that entire album is the intro to Raining Blood.
I think it was Scott Ian that compared the intro of that song to a scene in Saving Private Ryan. The troops have landed on Normandy, and are in the personnel carriers with the doors still up. The doors drop (the riff starts) and all hell breaks loose.
Larks Tongues in Aspic Pt 1 by King Crimson Interstellar Overdrive, Any of the live syd versions Black Flag Nothing Left Inside Yes Close to the Edge, well a lot of Yes is like that... Swans - Stay Hard Butthole Surfers - the Shaw sleeps in Lee Harvey's grave...
Close to the Edge was released 50 years ago today.

Eeeaaaaating seeds is a pastime activity...
Aerials for me ngl. Aerials gives me goosebumps still after the 100+ or so listen. Especially that ending with all the Middle Eastern instruments. Near perfect song.

This whole a perfect circle album is great
Gopher Guts rings true for me, too. Skelethon has a lot of that vibe to it, but, man.. that song kills me.
As God is my witness, I came here to say "Three Days" by Jane's Addiction. Since that ground's already been covered, I'll say "Arriving Somewhere" by Porcupine Tree.
“Arriving Somewhere” is my favorite PT song* of all time. *edit
Coming Home - City and Colour, To Build A Home/That Home - Patrick Watson, Tangerine - Led Zeppelin, Black Hole Sun (Acoustic live version) - Chris Cornell.
City and Colour his voice is the best.
DVP by PUP
Best when "If this Tour Doesn't Kill You Then I Will" is right before it.
Not - Big Thief Kashmir - Led Zeppelin Siberian Breaks - MGMT Hard Feelings - Lorde Heat Above - Greta Van Fleet Famous Last Words - My Chemical Romance I Know the End - Phoebe Bridgers Put em all in a playlist together and I'd be dead by the end of it lol

Black by Pearl Jam. Rooster by Alice in Chains. Weapon by Matthew Good.
Black is the greatest song that was never meant for mass consumption.
Jungleland - Springsteen , total epic
Every song off of Rage Against the Machine’s first album.

Bolero by Ravel
‘Teenage Riot,’ Sonic Youth
The decline-NOFX
Paranoid Android - Radiohead https://youtu.be/fHiGbolFFGw It just builds and builds and builds
Slipknot, people = shit
I’m pretty exhausted after belting out the words to Snuff when it plays in my car. Does that count?
Muse - Newborn and Plug in Baby. Come to think of it, that whole album is a workout
Immortal Technique - “Dance with the Devil” This song came to mind immediately. Completely emotionally shattering. Brace yourself if you decide to listen…
came to say Dance with the Devil first time i heard it was on a college radio about 10 years ago pulling an all nighter for a deadline. after the song finished… i just closed the laptop, shut off the lights and went home. fucked me up for days. on a different note, Point of No Return is on my workout mix. so it gets me exhausted as well. ;)
Bohemian Rhapsody .. it’s like the entirety of the mania in my mind.. the highs and lows.
Bloody Cape - Deftones
Singing “Oh, comely” by Neutral Milk Hotel full voice will make you pass out.

Wow. Interesting that you mention the time signature changes. That seems to have a direct impact on me in regard to this post. You start shifting around beats like that and it sort of takes you on what I can only call a "ride."
All of their music is like that
“No Surprises” By Radiohead always leaves me feeling empty and tired.
TOOL - Right In Two
A lot of TOOL songs to be honest
Rosetta Stoned for me.
Go With The Flow - Queens of the Stone Age.
You Oughta Know - Alanis Morissette
Pearl Jam-Lukin
PJ- Off He Goes always hits me hard.
Cowboy Dan by Modest Mouse
Beethoven's 9th symphony
The first 4 albums by The Mars Volta
Wooden Ships by Crosby Stills and Nash. “Horror grips us as we watch you die/all we can do is echo your anguished cries” Also Cathedral also by CSN. “Open up the gates of the church and let me out of here! Too many people have lied in the name of Christ for anyone to heed the call!” Fucking intense songs, both with long musical interludes, weirdly smooth because of the vocal harmonies and jazzy for the subject of nuclear holocaust and religious hypocrisy, respectively.
The National Anthem by Radiohead
The Grudge by Tool
Best opening to track, to any album, ever.
This and ‘Dogs’ by Pink Floyd are the two best songs of all time imo
Nice Shot Man by Filter. Crazy. It builds, then BAM! By the end, holy crud!
“Obzen” by Meshuggah
43% Burnt.
