I've always thought a band can be defined by the first song on their first album, and it always holds up. I'll post some tomorrow.

I'm super into this idea. I have a playlist that's all last tracks on records called Lasties. Record sequencing is fascinating to me. Sorry I went a little off.

Obligatory:

EDIT: posted the wrong jaylib track, you can just not count this if you want to count intros too
