And You Will Know Them By The Trail Of Dead have a habit of starting all their albums with instrumental songs:
And You Will Know Them...(Madonna)
Invocalion (Source Tags & Codes)
Ode To Isis (Worlds Apart)
Intro (A Song Of Fire & Wine) (So Divided)
Giant Causeway (The Century Of Self)
Introduction: "Let's experiment" (Tao Of The Dead)
- i think its a great thing to do - really sets up the feel of the album and also has the feel of a concert with a build-up to the first 'proper' song! _________________ "Bunch of opinionated, hipster twats!"
Speaking of Pink Floyd, nobody has mentioned One Of These Days from Meddle.
Life In Technicolor by Coldplay is also a great instrumental opener from Viva La Vida.. and Queen's Procession from Queen II.
Personally I love opening instrumentals. They make me feel that I listen to a coherent album, not just a greatest hit collection or another collection of songs
