Raining Blood - Slayer

I love the intro to that song! Unfortunately it gets a little muddled after that. Kerry King just doesn't know when to slow down.

Some of my favorites:
Guardians of Fate- Ensiferum
Heaven Ablaze- The Absence
Phobia- Kreator
Are you gonna go my way?- Lenny Kravitz (ever tried to play that thing? its nuts)

Theres tons more but most of them will be mentioned by other people at some point or another I'm sure.
