Because one riff just isn't enough

Occasionally a song will come along that you like so much, you just gotta steal the whole thing, and that's what this next post deals with.

First up, we have a couple intros. Count Me Out's "Two" off their album 110, vs. Damage Control's "Intro II" off What It Takes. Due to the similar titles, I can only assume this was a good natured nod to Count Me Out, though I haven't confirmed this with Damage Control. But Just take a listen:
Count Me Out - Two

Damage Control - Intro II



Ringworm making their second appearance on Riffcycle with their song "I Can See" off Birth Is Pain, which is actually an old Pitboss 2000 intro. In all fairness, Ringworm did give JLJ a song writing credit on this one, and Malcom X (of PB2K) had stolen it to begin with. It's actually just a reworked version of the Stone Cold Steve Austin Entrance music. Ringworm does it better, if I do say so myself (but that's true of everything in life).
Pitboss 2000 - Intro/Anthem

Ringworm - I Can See


Ringworm reworks another intro into a song of their own on their debut The Promise, this time it's an old Integrity intro. And once again, Ringworm gives proper writing credit. A classier bunch of guys their never was.
Integrity - Rated X

Ringworm - Numb



Steal big or go home.
