Break by Fugazi


This is one of the best album-openers of all time. It's great driving surf-music quality makes it really exciting and propulsive. And just when you've gotten into the groove, are following the lead guitar, and are sure it's not going to change -- whamo! -- you get the vocals: "Can't ask for more so I hope you're full..." which end with a clarion cry of "Break!" that sends you blasting off into the rest of the album. It's a gutsy start; most albums couldn't live up to an open this good. Thankfully #End-Hits is a classic and totally can.
