Best riffs of 2006

[Pitiless Wanderer]

I gotta say the main riff in "The Groan of Wind" by Kalmah is my favorite riff of the year.


What say you?

 

[Zephyrus]

A myriad of riffs off of Vader's "Impressions in Blood" would make good candidates.

 

[metal_wrath]

Darkthrone - "The Cult ov Goliath"

 

[The Ozzman]

Kalmah - To The Gallows

 

[Oguz286]

This Godless Endeavor - Nevermore

 

[Pitiless Wanderer]

that nevermore album came out last year

 

[MetalHeadMarc]

That sweet as harmonized part at the end of Hammers of misfortune's trot out the dead.

 

[Enemy242]

the intro/chorus to the song Midvinterblot by Unleashed. fucking brutal.

 

[hibernal_dream]

Isis, Dulcinea, last riff. Or one of the riffs from the Suffocation

 

[Oguz286]

that nevermore album came out last year

Oh crap, you're right Well then Stream of contiousness - Textures

 

[Stormwatch]

"Whole Lotta Rosie" by AC/DC is the best riff I've heard this year.

 

[The Ozzman]

that nevermore album came out last year

That's also a terrible album in general.

I'm just not a big fan of Nevermore

 

[UndyingDarkness]

the intro/chorus to the song Midvinterblot by Unleashed. fucking brutal.

That album has some great riffs

 

[Astrum]

A myriad of riffs off of Vader's "Impressions in Blood" would make good candidates.

 

[Xorv]

one of the riffs in agalloch's newest. I just can't choose which one. maybe falling snow

 

[Pitiless Wanderer]

That's also a terrible album in general.

I'm just not a big fan of Nevermore

huh. i love them!

 

[Mort Divine]

one of the riffs in agalloch's newest. I just can't choose which one. maybe falling snow

The slow plodding riff in Limbs is great.
I like Falling Snow more for the lead work than the riffs.
Fire Above Ice Below is the best song on the album, but ...
Not Unlike The Waves has the best riff.

 

[Phoenix5]

I love Nevermore as well. This Godless Endeavor is an amazing album.

I actually just like the sound of

Finisterra - Moonspell

 

[Alongside Death]

Zyklon - Vile Ritual
Zyklon - In Hindsight
Anata - Complete Demise

 

[Blue_Jay]

Agree with Dev. Finistera has one of the best riffs that came out this year from Moonspell. Excellent stuff that band released with their album Memorial.
