To this day, this is still imo the best intro to a song. Ever.

The intro has a pretty interesting time signature too:

"The Art Of Dying" by Gojira (2008) cycles from 4/4 to 2/4 to 21/16 (grouped 5+5+5+3+3) and repeats this pattern during the intro and beginning of the song.

It’s a difficult one to count for sure. I found this video helpful to better understand it: https://youtu.be/JLYeGJzJMdU

It only seemed fitting to have Lemmy himself as the icon.
