Change Auburn's Intro Music, Please

if you've been to an Auburn football game over the last several years you've probably noticed that the Tigers have one of the lamest/gheyest/nu-metalist intro songs of any team in the nation.

uggghhh. Here Comes the Boom? more like Here Comes the Suck. what does this tell us about Auburn? that we have really dated taste in really bad music. what we need is a song that tells people, "We are gonna beat you like Chris Brown and ain't nobody gonna save your ass." (sorry Rihanna...i love you, come live with me and i'll take care of you girl.)

compare that with Virginia Tech.

FUCKING AWESOME! BLOOD!! KILL!!! METALLICA!!!!!!!!!!!!!

so Auburn needs to step it up in 2009 and with this new coaching change i recommend gettin' some new tunes as well.

here are 3 suggestions for whoever the hell is in charge of picking the music to get the fans and players pumped.

Lil' Scrappy "No Problems"

the crunkest song evah! "You wanna be dead in the streets?
Mouth full of blood and your soul full heat." how fucking menacing does that sound? plus that creepy synth line reminds of something from the Dawn Of the Dead soundtrack. i'd like to think of our football team as a bunch of unhinged Zombie Ganstas (who miraculously go to class and don't get in any kind of trouble). if anything this would give Auburn some much needed swagger, something that they've been in short supply of the last few years.

Explosions In the Sky "Catastrophe and the Cure"

if Auburn wants to appeal to their aging hipster/Friday Night Lights loving football fans they could always take an Explosions In the Sky song and edit it down to the most epic 2 minute part...of course this might make everyone too emotional.

Cannibal Corpse "Hammer Smashed Face"

or we could just go with something ridiculously heavy and brutal. believe me the white trash methheads will go out of their mind for some Cannibal Corpse.

or we could always just go with this.

they played master of puppets during the lsu game last year. i think it was lsu anyway. unfortunately it was during a tv break so it did little to pump anyone up. but that is a start. and they gotta start playing a rap song besides the lil jon/ozzy osborne thing from like 5 years ago.

They should make a video using Nine Inch Nails' "Just Like You Imagined." It worked for Zack Snyder, don't see why it wouldn't work for Auburn...

Metallica's so played... Find something new. I have a feeling a bunch of the players would get into the Scrappy tune. I've always thought Muse had some pretty decent 'game-opening' riffs. Check out Citizen Erased:
