It occurs to me that Cigarettes and Alcohol by Oasis sounds very much like Get it On by T-Rex. What do you think are some more "metal" examples of riff recycling?

Hahaha funnily enough, one which comes to mind is Dungeon - I Am Death. That main riff sounds SOOO much like one of the riffs in Master Of Puppets 
That isn't an insult by the way because I love that riff and I love I Am Death! You guys better play it in Melbourne or you'll have a scrauny little glam dude trying to kick your buttocks haha!

Actually, it reminds me more of Painkiller, actually!
Aw man, how many bands did we rip off? HAHA!

I have heard alot of people make that MOP comparison, but I haven't really noticed it. I think I can see the Painkiller likeness more myself...
All 3 are kick arse songs!

Metal as fuck
To me, 'I Am Death' sounds like Metallica. But the first song on Primal Fear's 'Nuclear Fire' sounds exactly like 'I Am Death'
You know that riff in Master Of Puppets that's only played a few times near the start??? Then they play this high riff once, and kick into the main verse riff.
That's the one I mean. The one played only a few times near the start hehe.
I can see the Painkiller likeness as well now, but not as much!

Note to self: Hurry up and buy Master of Puppets so I can compare

Sydo's right about Tony Iommi as well. Does anyone else think the riff from Bowie's Ziggy Stardust is very similar to Iron Man?

[color=#AOEOOA]While you're on Metallica's MOP, the identical riff is used throughout the computer game Doom if anyone cares.[/color]
Here's another one. Have a listen to "Cardinal Sin" by Black Sabbath (it's on the Cross Purposes album) and tell me it doesn't sound like Led Zep's "Kashmir."

There's a Stratovarius song on "Episode" (sorry, can't remember which one) that sounds like "Kashmir" as well.
