best song intro ever?
i love "Am I Evil" by Diamond Head also "The Riverbed" by Gallows.

alt: I have been invited to 10 weddings this year. Are you goimng to any? Do you want to go? Do you wear a morning coat or a lounge suit like pleb?

Altalt: if you see monty on a bike, will you run him over for the "lols"?
( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Wed 7 Mar 2012, 14:01, 135 replies, latest was 14 years ago)

Is that Diamond Head one not just a rip off of Mars The Bringer of War from Holst's Planets?

( tangledupinblue hairy badge with moving eyes, Wed 7 Mar 2012, 14:04, Reply)

I have no idea, but DH have always been far superior songwriters to Holst
he never had any guitar solos

Your first assertion is incorrect.
I was going to try and disprove your second, but could only find videos of drippy looking hippies playing dreary versions of Jupiter on acoustic guitars.

Eloise by The Damned. Class band.
Also Space is Deep, by the Hawks.
Alt, 1 as far as I know, just trousers and a Hawaiian shirt.
I don't think he does bikes. Apart from the class one that is.

I saw a Gallows video once.
It was fucking pathetic. The premise of it was some kind of urban unrest/riot scene – and the music was terrible. Faux-angry punk lite seeming performed by mincing woofters.

Also, Brian Tatler from Diamond Head is a tosser. A Midlands, Christian tosser at that. Like a kind of heavy metal Jasper Carrott. Diamond Head? Dick head, more like.

Hope this helps.

Tom Sawyer by Rush.
Shit song, terrible band - incredible intro.

Or 'Apache' by Michael Viner's Incredible Bongo Band. A masterpiece.

ALSO the intro to 'Films' by Gary Numan is fucking brilliant. So is Steve Miller's 'Take the Money and Run', also 'Fly Like an Eagle'. He's good at the old intros, is our Stevie.
