Best riffs ever

[spawn]

Yeah, you're right.

Diary and Creator Failure have awesome riffs, and Dante's Inferno. My god.

Fuck Burnt Offerings is such an awesome album.

Stormrider is another song with awesome riffs, and Stygain, and The Funeral, and Slave To The Dark. Fuck Iced Earth are awesome.

Angels Holocaust too How awesome is the AIA version?

 

[Blitzkrieg]

 

[Spiff]

Get a room, you two.

 

[spawn]

So you can watch? Sicko.

 

[Bucko]

AC/DC : Highway to Hell.
Sabbaths : In the Void.
Led Zepplins: Black Dog .
Thin Lizzy: Waiting for an Alibi

 

[Sydo]

Gotta remember that all of Schaffer's seem to be written for (and probably recorded by) one guitarist. I hate that.

 

[spawn]

Yeah, Jon does every guitar part except the solos on the IE albums, basically the same as Hetfield/Hammet used to record their stuff.

His riffs are nowhere near as inventive these days and there are a lot less of them, plus he crams them into the same song structure now. TGB had way too much repetition for my tastes...

 

[Spruce Goose]

That one badass motherfucka of a riff that is in the trilogy on SWTWC

I think its the first song of the trilogy that starts quiet and then the guitar riff busts a move on yo ass..... then the drums and bass kick in

 

[spawn]

I think you mean the third song Sprucey, the one that starts with the piano, and yep, that riff is awesome

 

[Spruce Goose]

No, I mean the massive riff in PROPHECY. I love that riff. The part that comes after the words:

Oppressed for centuries, await the prophecy
The child will set us free, reclaim it rightfully

I think they are the lyrics?

 

[spawn]

Oh I know the one you mean

 

[Spruce Goose]

yeah... the one that goes

Duh na na na na
Duh Duh Duh
Duh NA NA NA

 

[Blitzkrieg]

Yeah that riff is damn cool, but the huge one after the piano in The Coming Curse just knocks you to the floor.

 

[dreamwatch]

Apart from all the AC DC riffs mentioned my faves include Supernaut by Black Sabbath, All Right Now by Free and Tie Your Mother Down by Queen. Actually Queen have loads, but I'm late for work so I can't share right now.

 

[Southy]

I don't have Dante's Inferno yet I know I gotta get it,I will try and get it next week, someone remind me...

 

[spawn]

Its on Burnt Offerings, so you have probably had trouble finding it if you are looking for Dantes Inferno Southy

 

[Southy]

I know what I ment..I have had a (fair) few beers

But I have seen the remastered version getting round, there is always other stuff I wanna get first. I really really wanna get it, I just always have something else to et, I shall move it to the top of next weeks list

 

[Blitzkrieg]

Good move. The Burnt Offerings remaster is in my all time top few albums. Brilliant.

 

[Icarus]

The riff under the chorus of the sentinel!

allllll fear the sennnnnntineeelllllllllllll!
