Spite - All I know is hate

SO HEAVY!!

Clean guitar intro :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

This song has like 2 min of build before The drop. Most of this album is great for building and climaxes.

I really like that soundtrack. You know of a lossless version anywhere? Last I knew even Tidal and Qobuz only had the mp3 version.

Amazon has that track in ultra HD…

It’s a very simple intro but I think it works really well.

I guess you could call this an intro? It’s an intro song for an album so…

This is maybe a strange pick, but I have a huge soft spot for the build up of Lionel Hampton’s “Lavender Coffin,” which doesn’t really get going until 45 seconds into the song:

(Jonathan Stout’s band played an awesome live version of this at the last Camp Hollywood in 2019, but I don’t think it’s available as a recording anywhere. :frowning:)

I primarly listen to VGM and there’s LOTS AND LOTS of insanely good candidate, but I HAVE to give it to Summit from Celeste

It just works everytime no matter how many times I listen to it.

Yeah…

Ok, i have an obscure one unless you are French.
This is from the soundtrack to the movie Taxi.
The song start with a phone call and once he starts talking he gets into the chorus of the song.
