1. Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hTWKbfoikeg&feature=youtu.be An obvious choice? Of course, but as the anthem that kick-started a movement and propelled Kurt Cobain to anti-hero status, there isn't much left to say that hasn't been said before. So let's just concentrate on the anatomy of the song. Recommended pounding pattern: Take your pick. The real question might be more like not when to hit the roof. There are so many devastating impact points. After a muted version of the main guitar riff, the adrenaline truly kicks in with Dave Grohl's opening snare blasts. Whilst performing this at the wheel alone is acceptable, our research found that nine out of ten bash test dummies got significantly more mashed up when engaging this in a group. Further analysis confirmed that human test groups enclosed in a small space surrounded by glass and steel, experienced psychotropic sensations mentally comparable to participating in a pagan blood ritual, with the most knuckle-crunching moment coming with the "YEAH" at the end of the chorus. Smells Like Teen Spirit was, and remains, a lightning strike of unchained antagonism that translates its frustrated aggression into a riot inciting, pop chart-bothering anthem. Amen. As ever, don't let your in car entertainment system - whatever form it takes - get the better of you.
