BAD riffs

[MetallicSlayerDeth]

Post any riffs you find that are just plain BAD

(Idea from a post by metallicdistort in the least favourite Evile riff thread)

All that comes to mind is really generic nu metal/metalcore riffs. But I can’t name any

Not all nu-metal riffs are bad, but yes most metalcore riffs are

I just find a lot of them to be really samey and generic. Also, I don't really like it when riffs have harmonic squeals at the end of every bar.

 

[Covet Chaos]

Machine Head - Everything they have ever done.

The intro riff to Testamen's Do or Die. Fuck that song, it ruins the album.

 

[Keenan]

Megadeth - 1,320
That WHOLE song to be honest.

 

[D.Ingram]

Nah, the riff is good it's just repetitve as fuck after it'sbeen played 7 times in a row

 

[rusty89]

[Keenan]

Every riff Kurt Cobain ever wrote. I hate Nirvana.

 

[MegaPwn]

What about Dying In Your Arms by Trivium? That has some megafail riffs.

 

[Darkofeden]

What about Trivium? They are megafail.

Fixed

 

[Keenan]

Yeah...... I just paused Diamond Head for that crap. Never heard "Dying In Your Arms" till now..... That song was bad.
