Gateway songs to get into bands...

Belligerent · Sep 23, 2007

Say you are interested in a band and never heard them before but want THE song for you to hear to help you along.
For example:
Dimmu Borgir- "Blessings upon the Throne of Tyranny"
Enslaved- "Return to Yggsdrasil"
Thurisaz- "Point of no Return"
Opeth- "Deliverance"
Hypocrisy- "Fractured Millennium"
Agalloch - "In The Shadow Of Our Pale Companion"
Gojira - "Where Dragons Dwell"

Songs that show every aspect of the band and what they are capable of.

This thread sorta belongs in Recs...so I'll put it there. There may be a discussion that brews though...in that case, I will move it back.

A great Hypocrisy song indeed. I'll add Roswell 47.

I always found that one so generic and boring. I'd pick sumn like "Limbs" over it.
