Combustion is a damn fine song off a damn fine album.

Ocean Planet off Gojira's 2005 From Mars to Sirius blew my dick off first time I heard it. I can still remember it. Same thing happened with Oroborus from their 2008 The Way of All Flesh, but i was better prepared for that one.

Thrasher's Abattoir from Carcass' 2013 return Surgical Steel is also quite punishing. Phenomenal album. But it's a short ass song.

I'd have to give it some more thought. Nothing quite compares to Meshuggah.

Don't know if this counts as "modern", but here are some more awesome opening tracks:

Taake - Hordalands Doedskvad pt. 1

Darkthrone - Tundra Leech

Ruins of Beverast - Between Bronze Walls

Windhand - Orchard
