How this hasn't gotten a shout or two already is beyond me. Just doing my job here:

 

[4737carlin]

The Who - Run Run Run on Quick one and the tital track on Velvet Undergrounds White Light/White Heat LP

 

[Blue 1]

Would've gone for "Debaser" and "Into My Arms" from them two, myself.

Into My Arms probably has the best opening line of any song ever.

 

[coollino]

Manic Street Preachers - Yes

 

[coollino]

Or just one of the best ever songs. Talk about setting a tone for an album lol

 

[evertony]

Echo and the Bunnymen - Show of Strength, off the Heaven Up Here album.

They start a lot of gigs with this track, shivers up the spine stuff.

Now we’re talking

How about - The Cutter, opening on the Porcupine album.

Bit more commercial, but not too shabby either

 

[COYBL25]

Blondie - Hanging on the telephone, Parallel Lines.

 

[chrissyjack]

What a guitar riff

Prefer the title track to be honest....superb track

Was honestly a tough call between Debaser and Bone Machine, I just about prefer Doolittle over Surfer Rosa but Bone Machine blew the back of me head off the first time I heard it.

The Beatles' White Album
Back in the USSR
