That there's a hell of a drum fill at 2:13, go off my guy. Another nice mini one at 3:00. Hard to imagine there are better Polyphia tracks than this. 18) Merrow - Pillars of Re-Creation Submitted by: Steiner https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tSiOo3Yk7lQ Man that chiptune/electronic opening is great, that's by far my favorite part. The rest of the track and the guitar and everything are fine, but it can never quite match that opening 10 seconds. 1:09 - 15/8 alert! 17) Animals As Leaders - Gestaltzerfall Submitted by: TheKnightOfNee https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N0RbJRY_pU8 Ooo that opening guitar lick is very nice. 0:45 WHOA WHERE ARE WE GOING? What a rhythm shift - I can't even really tell what time signature it is. Makes the track much more interesting. 3:53 - AH here we go again. 2:53 - well placed, big half-time beat coming out of the chill, mysterious-sounding middle section. Kind of insane drumming after that at 3:17 also. Just really impressive musicianship and timing, with all those rhythm changes. --- azuarc wasn't even home. he was playing Magic the Gathering at his buddy's store, which is extremely easy to verify |

| jcgamer107 04/03/23 9:45:29 PM #107 | 24) Planet X - Noble Savage Submitted by: NFUN https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GzZPQITw6wI I like these Planet X tracks just fine, but not enough to put them toward the very top. This one takes a while to get rolling - I'm not the biggest fan of the jazzy opening. The highlight is probably the electric guitar in the middle section (and again at 4:42), followed by BREAKING NEWS at 3:19. Cool mixed-meter stuff elsewhere, but the guitar part feels kinda meandering at times. 23) Jesus Christ Superstar - Overture Submitted by: Raka_Putra https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QvuKX0KvKUY Probably the least likely track to wind up on this list, the Jesus Christ Superstar overture is so good that even after deducting some points for vocals near the end (and a few more for being more 'showtune' than rock instrumental), it still wound up this high. Make no mistake - this song is firmly into 'rock instrumental' territory from the beginning until the main fanfare at 3:22 - an incredible moment btw. I'm not even that big a fan of this musical overall, but boy the main theme is great. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gUvUFZK5sLk ...and if you haven't seen the Mr. Show parody of JC Superstar, check this shit ooouuuuuutttttt 22) Planet X - Desert Girl Submitted by: Mr_Lasastryke https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eJxF-s96Igc The synth loop is so weird it's almost surreal....I'm still not sure if I like it or not. What I definitely do like is the phat beat drop at 0:43, then we go to an insane, frantic rhythm at 1:15, and back to the phat beat + a Rage Against the Machine bass riff this time at 1:31 - it's groove whiplash but in a great way. The section from 4:24-4:59 is wild - you have the guitarist, and especially the drummer, playing these crazy frantic fills - it almost feels like the whole thing's going to come apart, before they lock back in for the final ~minute. 21) The Edgar Winter Group - Frankenstein Submitted by: TheKnightOfNee https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=65XSHM3jlAY One of the most well-known rock instrumentals ever recorded, and for good reason. Terrific musicianship all around, and the main riff goes hard right out of the gate. It pains me to say it as a drummer, but although the drumming elsewhere is excellent, I think the drum feature is the weakest of the solos and doesn't serve the song a whole lot. The build-up leading into it and the arpeggiation coming out of it are both great though. Nice addition of woodwinds at 1:32, that's a fun section. 0:16 is such a great little B riff, sounds like Beatles or something, it's really a shame it doesn't repeat near the end. --- azuarc wasn't even home. he was playing Magic the Gathering at his buddy's store, which is extremely easy to verify |

I say 'riff' in reference to the entire track, because, save for the middle section, it essentially is one riff the entire time. Still, good luck not bobbing your head or tapping your foot to it. Halfway! 25) Faith No More - Woodpecker From Mars Submitted by: neonreaper https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FMGA21QxzsM Remember in Shifting Sand Land in Mario 64 when Mario did a line of coke and started running around and this track started playing and some mummies showed up and started moshing? Serious drums entrance at 0:52, gottdam. The bass starts going hard as well around 1:30. In this case I actually don't like the down-tempo breakdown in the middle as much, compared to other tracks on the list. Start and finish are really strong, though. --- azuarc wasn't even home. he was playing Magic the Gathering at his buddy's store, which is extremely easy to verify |

| jcgamer107 03/30/23 3:37:53 AM #104 | Legitimately having a hard time because I like everything that's left 30) Desert Sessions - Monkey in the Middle Submitted by: MarkS2 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YHvafY7KxU4 I like the laid back beat and garage rock sound of this. It does feel kinda long even at 2:47 - it gets a little repetitive - and the guitar makes some odd sounds, but it's still a pleasant riff. 29) Polyphia - G.O.A.T. Submitted by: Steiner https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9_gkpYORQLU This is pretty cool musically, but I can't help but get an emo-high-school vibe from it when combined with the video. Each musician getting a chance to show off makes for a fun jam, even if I can't fully get into it. 28) Brian Kahanek - Gemini Submitted by: ZeroSignal https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QOldJqSWQjk Brian Kahanek. Gemini. Great song I wish I could play like this guy go pick up his album Real Life from Cdbaby.com. This song was also on guitar hero. 27) Ozric Tentacles - O-I Submitted by: NFUN https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gT1Q2__0_Ig This song takes a trip from East to West Asia - starts with like an ancient Japanese sound to it, then transitions to music suitable for galloping through the desert, with cool drumming in between. 0:53 reminds me of Born to Be Bone from Gitaroo Man, and a neat synth breakdown shortly after that. Freakin great little organ & latin percussion jam at 2:06. The wah-wah guitar effect at 3:06 is so crazy that I thought it was someone running vocals through a guitar a la Peter Frampton upon first listen. --- azuarc wasn't even home. he was playing Magic the Gathering at his buddy's store, which is extremely easy to verify |
