Might have found the perfect intro song.

I think that would make some of the older generation's heads explode. The first minute or so is kinda cool though.

It's got all the right elements in it though. Plus Slipknot is from Iowa.

yeah, I'm pretty sure any song with the word "maggot" in the title, is probably not going to "fly" with a lot of folks.

Smoke on the Water or Thunderstruck > anything Slipknot has ever put out.

This song was brought up the first year we were supposed to have "sirens", either one or two years ago. The instrumental version is OK, but I like it with the vocals, kinda fitting for a football game, kinda like a pep talk. Here is the version someone posted way back when, I liked it so I saved it in my Youtube acct.

I've always been a fan of this song too just not a lot of other slipknot songs.

On the road...
Like I said in the other thread, no thanks. Honestly, I don't see it at all other than a 30 second siren.

I vote for anything that isn't AC/DC or Metallica. Best case senario would be to have someone like Slipknot (seeing as they are from central Iowa) make a song specifically for an Iowa State Football intro. Who knows if they would do it or what it would cost, but at least we wouldn't sound like everyone else.

I like it because it fits the bill for an intro, sounds upbeat and intimidating, and features an Iowa band.

My reply from the Jeff Johnson thread...

"It's damn near perfect. The siren... the crowd chanting... BOOM! HERE COME THE CYCLONES!! Ba ta da ta ta O we will FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT for Iowa State, and may her colors ever flyyy! Yes we will FIGHT with MIGHT for Iowa State, with a will to DO or DIE RAH! RAH! RAH! Loyal sons forever true, and we will fight the battle through, and when we HIT that line we'll HIT it hard ev'ry yard for I! S! U!"

Since you mentioned Metallica I will submit my nomination for the intro to "For Whom the Bell Tolls"

Or the intro to "Harvester of Sorrow"

Van Halen, the Women and Children First album. Listen to the first 75 seconds of Everybody Wants Some. At the crescendo, the players take the field.

Diamond Dave howling gives it a nice jungle feel.....
