The Most Used Intros In Metal 

Intro-ception

Owning a recording studio for almost 10 years. Can confirm.

Hands down the best intro was " U want sum intro hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm?"

Could you please make a full version of the "Maka Me Cri :("?

1. Memphis May Fire 2. Parkway Drive 3. Down & Dirty 4. Wage War 5. Crown the Empire 6. blessthefall 7. Architects 8. Oceano

I love how we all heard actual "hey, hey" in our heads I know you did

starting Need for Speed Most Wanted 0:48

We need a full version of "Maka Me Cri" and "Dude, what was in that brownie?", please

Ah.. The old 00000005555555558888887777777. Always makes for good music. Does something to my soul.

I hate watching these videos. Always makes me wish they were real songs >.>

Can we just stop to appreciate how tasty this dude's riffs are, every single time.

"Just Make The Computer Do It" is straight up Disturbed😂😂

all of these can literally be hit songs, great job man

The lofi addict is my favourite

“Maka Me Cri” makes me wanna think of Tears Don’t Fall

“Maka me cri” is definitely my preferred sound. Love songs which are melancholy and have a this eery vibe to it.

*i liked the intro*

hey, if it aint broke dont fix it

Dude what was in that brownie was actually kinda tight 😂

Drum solo: Miss may I Hey Hey: as i lay dying Lo Fi addict: after the burial An intro to remember: ADTR Maka Me Crie: Currents Just make the computrr do it: AA What was in that brownie: Architects Fck and intro: Every deathcore band

I need more bands like "Maka me cri :'(" for sure.

*U WAN SUM INTROS? HMMMMM???* Edit: next video would be outro... Maybe....

"Dude, What Was In That Brownie?" sounds like an Architects' intro, and I'm loving it

"Maka Me Cri" full song please..

I must be basic af cos I loved them all lol

"Dude what was in that brownie" reminded me of quantum flux by northlane. i'm probably wrong.

The Lo-Fi addict might be my favorite type of intro. If the drop is just right, you just know the song is gonna be dope.

Something about the Lo-Fi effect always makes the song 10x better imo. Always instantly add it to my playlist with the Lo-Fi effect

That was a full album pretty much. Just name the songs after Tom Cruise movies and you're done

Loved that lil jab at ADTR lmao 1:06

As a drummer I can honestly say I LOVE drum solo intros

Lo-Fi is so daamnnn reall 💯 Btw Let the computer do it is soo Motionless In White haha

most used guitarist pose

Dude, these "most used" videos are too good haha I'm guessing you wrote all those intros? I could see all these intros being parts of some seriously sick songs haha!

The most used intros in NU Metal

Atreyu, Killswitch Engage, Unearth, As I Lay Dying, August Burns Red, It Dies Today, etc. were my jams and this video is the truest thing I've ever heard.

"Hey, Hey!" Gave me August Burns Red vibes :o *nice intro btw*

The Lo-Fi Addict haha yes😂

Creative af. Every riff is just pure awesomness and deserves to be put in a song(or it's just me wanting to hear more of this). Keep up the good work!

0:30 *Parkway Drive jam into this riff*

Yoooo, the riff on “Just, Make The Computer Do It” was sick.

0:43 nice miss may I reference

THAT BROWNIE MELTED MY FACE OFF!.. lol always amazing man. These were so awesome & spot on

These are some good licks. Will use. Thank You, Nik.

I need full version of "maka a me cri" , "lo-fi addict" and "let the computer do it" And what about different types of guitar tricks? And I'm not gonna lie, the "maka me cri" reminds me of the new Bullet For My Valentine album

All these riffs were fire! When do we get another Nik Nocturnal album?

Love the tone man

So accurate in every video. Great content!

0:49 could be "The Black" from Asking Alexandria

Man your tone is so spot on. Much better than many professional RU-vidrs

You rocked all of them man freaking crazyyy

I am so happy I found your channel bro, I love every single one of your videos!

Maka me cri is my thing and I just realised it.

the lo-fi addict is the best one by far. ESPECIALLY when they slowly fade the drums in like that. views from the sun by thornhill is a prime example of that intro

This was so sick good job 😊🤘

Unreal job on the guitar tones!

I’m gettin linkin park vibes form “just make the computer do it”

Hey-Hey sounds like Bullet For My Valentine

Those are some killer riffs my friend..as a guitarist myself I gotta say you are awesome!

Dude, these are some killer tunes!

I wish Maka me cri was a full song

"An intro to remember" is literally every underøath song

man, these examples could easily be awesome songs, all awesome!

Recently found your channel and I’m addicted. All the riffs are so catchy. Makes me wish I played! 🤘

You forgot: 1. The vocal intro: This is an intro wherein the singer screams a few words before the rest of the band kicks in. 2. The bass groove intro: This obviously is when the bass player jams a little groove before the rest of the band kicks in. 3. The tribal intro: This is wherein the band composes a percussionary intro using mostly tribal instruments. 4. The doom intro: This is wherein the band plays a very simple chord progression that is sluggish before much of anything really eventful happens in the song. These intros can take a long time. 5. The fade in: This is an intro wherein the volume is gradually raised mid groove till the lyrics kick in. 6. The panning djent intro. This is where a serious of Djents are played from left to right before the stereo mix kicks in. 7. The pick slide: This is wherein the drummer plays a big fill as the guitars slide into the first riff of the song. 8. The metal guitar solo intro: See songs like "South Of Heaven" 9. The mathy intro: This is when the band plays a choppy and odd intro that is intended to be confusing or complex. 10. The audio clip intro: This is when a band takes something from a movie or TV show to intro the song. 11. The industrial intro. This is when a band composes an intro that is largely comprised of industrial noises. 12. The classical intro: This obviously is when a band uses classical instruments to intro a song. 13. The drum groove intro: This is when the drummer plays a relatively simple groove for a few measures before the band kicks in. See songs like "Digital Bath" 14. The singer and guitar player duo. This is an intro wherein the singer and the guitar player start the song together but without the rest of the band. 15. The rhythm section intro with vocals. This obviously is wherein the rhythm section and the singer start off the song without guitars. Sometimes this will include bass guitar sometimes not. See The Dillinger Escape Plan's "Room full of eyes" 16. Creepy clean guitar and Djent intro. This is when one guitar player starts the song with a creepy clean part and soon after the rest of the band kicks in with a Djent groove as the creepy clean part continues to play underneath everything. 17. The backwards mix intro: This is when the band plays something they recorded but in reverse to intro a song. 18. Just scream your balls off intro: This intro is when the singer just screaming his ass off all by himself for a couple bars before the band comes in. Not to be confused with "the vocal intro" which only contains a few words. 19. The 4 count on the snare intro: The drummer simply hits four hits on the snare before the song kicks in. 20. The bell of death: This is obviously wherein the drummer hits one bell before the whole band jumps in.

1:05 An intro to remenber just sound like messhugah's future breed machine

Awesome video !!! You are so creative.

With this video, you have earned my subscription!

These are fantastic

Nice video Nik, would be awesome if u cover some ''classic'' songs of metalcore, post-hardcore and stuff like that, anyways, cheers from Argentina

1:20 - 1:41 love it. Best part of this video!

Thoroughly enjoyed this

I really liked the lofi one! Good shit man! I'm guilty of this from time to time

Make Me Cri: After The Burial - Laurentian Ghosts Especially after you read the story behind the song

I need a full maka me cri ;( song And would absolutely love a dude what was in that brownie song. Why are you so fricking good.

Whoa dude, sick riffage!!!, This video made my subscription :)

These are all actually pretty cool haha

You definitely must do the long and complete version of "Maka me cri :'("

“Hey hey” reminded me of Miss May I

This list is too accurate 😂 Also, killer riffs dude.

all of these, all of them...are wonderful

An intro to remember had me dead af

0:32 For AC/DC it's more like _"Oi, oi."_ Then again, they're not a metal band.

Very useful video too, nice!!

Nik that riff starting at 1:41 was so dope man

0:49 Breaking Benjamin in a nutshell

intro to remember could be Future Breed Machine

Great video Nik !!! :D

Ooh! So many goo ideas! Thanks! haha!

Chef Riff McNasty serving up some tasty bois. Can you chug a water bottle as fast as you can for an intro sometime?

I was balls deep in anime and stopped watching just for this

So badass man

I think all of those riffs are so good.

You're being ironic in all those videos but they always make me wanna take my guitar and play cuz it sounds amazing!

Can't tell if he's wearing eyeliner or if he's just never sleeps.

Every single one of these examples is fire.

Make that make me cry into a full song please....:) ☺️ Love it
