Lansing-Dreiden do this on the first track of their first album, but it's a total fake-out and works perfectly

The Ohio Express "Chewy Chewy" has a nearly perfect "Be My Baby" break including the bass riff just the final chorus (1:23 in the above video)

opening track of the new Suede album does this, admittedly after a minute and a half of orchestral largesse

track 3 of the new mitski album does this, presumably through gritted teeth

"Greyhound Bus Station" by Plush has this, but not as an intro. More of a mid-song fill, I guess.
