I'm at my desk against for @neurothing 's #ThursdayFiveList, where we're talking about #TheOpener - your favourite five first songs from albums?

Trying (and only slightly failing) not to overthink this. These are all great.

Dark Tranquillity - The Wonders at Your Feet (Haven)
Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EFGbwFL3f-w
Links: https://songwhip.com/dark-tranquillity/the-wonders-at-your-feet

KMFDM - WWIII (WWIII)
https://songwhip.com/kmfdm/wwiii

Zeal & Ardor - Vigil (Wake of a Nation)
Links: https://songwhip.com/zeal-and-ardor/vigil2020

You very nearly got some Angus McSix in here, but it didn't quite fit the mood as well as Bad Religion, so there you are.
