I am Legend/Out for blood, by Arch Enemy. I just love that intro!!! Liberate is amazing, but I really like either Prosthetics or Eyeless, I love the way they use Sid (the DJ) to intorduce the song. You don't don't expect that sort of intro from them. Oh! Or, Waiy and Bleed, just the way Corey starts singing. It instantly gets me in the mood for the listening to the whole album.
"One"--Metallica
"We Watch The Children Pray" or "Beyond The Black"--Metal Church
Or since you like double guitar players.
How about the Solo in "Fast As A Shark" ---Accept both guitarists do the solo at the same time it sounds perfect.

Cowboys From Hell - Pantera
either start with slow mysterious piano like in those goth metal.
or
start with awesome one guitared heavy palm mutting and riffing and the other instruments join in
or
singer screaming away and guitars and drums trashing away all almost at once for an intro till song starts.
Almost anything will do as long as it's metal. :D
church organ introduction...
like critical acclaim.
i like metal songs that start off slow and then suddenly heads start bangin and floors start to shake
example - Iron Maiden's "Hallowed be Thy Name"
AAAAAAAAAARRRRHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!
