Some song beginnings have been immortalized through beats created by brilliant drummers who instilled in the music something like a "fingerprint ," a unique mark that, upon hearing it, allows us to immediately recognize the song that is coming.
This week we've listed some of these songs in our Top 11. Whether it's a simple beat like the unmistakable opening of AJ Pero's " We're Not Gonna Take It Painkiller ," or even a truly tasteful "drum riff" created by the immortal Clive Burr in " Run To The Hills ," here's the list of songs chosen by Wikimetal.
