Sabres are looking for an intro song for the games.  If you tweet you can send it by hashtag #Sabresintrosong.

What say u?  Post 'em up!

I say "Enter Sandman"  We're off to never never land!

It would look something like this:

[RazielSabre]

Hollywood Undead - Everywhere I Go! Ok, what about Born Too Slow - Crystal Method?  

[MattPie]

Would seem apropos, even though I dislike the song. I much prefer the Weird Al version.


Weird Al:



I'm not going to Tweet this though, since I'd hate to listen to it on a regular basis.

I've always wondered what song that was based off, being a techy I love Weird Al's version.

[beerme1]

I think i agree with chz. The guitar riff and the off to never never land! buh buhm ma ma, buh buh ma ma ma ma

Ya that would work for me.

[Andrew Amerk]

How about:

Black Sabbath - Electric Funeral

Or

Wu-tang - Protect Ya Neck

Or

A Day To Remember - 2nd Sucks

[sabre4life]

Metallica S&M - Extasy of Gold (1:15 the song starts)

Ecstasy of Gold

[d4rksabre]

If it's not Sabre Dance, then we're all idiots.

Like the 2nd sucks option, but might be a lil too heavy for the general populace.

How about dis?

Are we talking broadcast intro song or skate onto the ice intro song? Broadcast it has to be Sabre Dance, but otherwise I like mixing it up every year. How great did "Better Days" fit in '05-'06? They seem to set a tone for the season.

Skate on the ice, in F'N Center', intro song.

Of course the TV should be Sabre Dance.  They're gonna have a new studio in the Center for Kevin and Mike this year too.  Somewhere different.

Blyech. I still don't like that song.

I guess years and years of college hockey games have pretty much ruined "pump up" songs for me. It's always nickelback or Metallica or Rise Against. I guess I just don't see the heart in a bunch of bro rock, dated metal, or Robbie Takac.

[LGR4GM]

Back In Black (or in this case Blue)

[Glass Case Of Emotion]

Yup, that's right, I just suggested Queen.

I don't think a tribute to someone dying is a good intro song.  Unless of course it means "happy to be dun with Quinn".

[Andrew Amerk]

I'm still waiting for the Amerks to bring back Freeze Frame.

How about good vibrations by the beach boys or Holiday by green day or ?

Personally I can't get enough of bro-rock and dated metal. I will take a pass on Robbie Takac.  

My suggestions:

Creeping Dealth or For Whom the Bell Tolls - Metallica (Although I am all for Enter Sandman)
Testify or Bombtrack - Rage Against the Machine
The Clincher - Chevelle
Kickstart My Heart - Motley Crue

I don't know, there were some times last year this team could have used some emergency Van Halen.

[sabre snipe]

There's never a wrong time for Emergency Van Halen.

Just stick with the sabre dance in the arena too.  It's perfect.

[Claude_Verret]

Appropriate lyrics too

Celebrate the moment
As it turns into one more
Another chance at victory
Another chance to score



But Sabre Dance is still probably the best choice...

[johnyvegas]

Sabre Dance all the way..  But gotta say, I loved this video with the "Dogs Days" song by Florence and the Machine.  Goosebumps like crazy. Get's me so fired up.

[SyrSabreFan]

Sabre Dance? Really?  So we sound like CLOWNS coming on the ice?  Come on already!

[sabills]

Flogging Molly(and other assorted celtic/punk/irish/rockness) is an option here too. Only thing is its starting to get over used and become just another arena rock style. Too bad.

And this is sort of my point. Every other arena plays rock music for their entrances. Why can't we be different and traditional all at the same time? You can't tell me Sabre Dance wouldn't give you goosebumps.

Not only did it not give me goosebumps, I am not fired up.  Had to go back and watch the 2011-2012 videos that Chz posted to make me feel better

There has to be a band SOMEWHERE in Buffalo that has a good, kick you in the knee and spit in your eye tune. Or can at least record one. There just has to be.

[sabills]

Look up Jackdaw. They opened for the Murphies a couple years ago at TITS, they're irish punk, but i seem to remember much more punk than celtic to them.
