I might regret saying this......... but what the hell.

The intro to Tip Your Bartender by Glassjaw, which is also the very beginning to their album Worship and Tribute always gets me mega-pumped.

Yes I like glassjaw... I truely believe they are a diamond in the extremely gay rough.

Aerosmith - Walk This Way

There's a drum intro...

Actually, I'm confused in general. It seems like only a few of the songs you guys have mentioned have solo intros, i.e. just the guitarist playing.

"Achilles Last Stand" - Led Zeppelin (Jimmy Page)

"Lateralus" - Tool (Adama Jones)

"Stream Of Consciousness" - Dream Theater (John Petrucci)

"Welcome Home (Sanitarium) - Metallica (Kirk Hammett & James Hetfield)

This is hard... it seems like there aren't that many...

I wasn't 100% sure about it, but the drum intro is not bad

Yeah, the whole song has an awesome groove.

How about...

Still, the guitar riff is awesome and, I think, more representative of the song than the drum beat.

It said guitar intro, not guitar solo's. A guitar intro doesn't require the guitarist to be the only one playing, just the guitar being on the forefront, imho.
