[Manic Ferocity]

Nothing even comes close to this imo. My favorite is the riff directly following the intro, but the verse riff is also pretty amazing as well.

It would be hard to pick a favorite riff in that song. Some of the best ever.

 

[King Richard]

agreed brother

It's the only black metal, and probably one of the very few metal riffs, that ever floored me when I first listened to it. Truly amazing riffage indeed.

 

[ASD]

I would consider this to be black metal, though borderline.

 

[King Richard]

I was actually going to post that one too but got lazy. I love Dawn.

 

[Omni]

I'm pretty fond of the riffs in "Findling" by Lunar Aurora. I'm not going to post it because the amount of videos on this thread already almost killed my crappy computer.

 

[Master_Yoda77]

Oh, and this shit.

Can't forget this one

 

[JumplnTheFire]

Weakling - No One May Be Called As A Man While He'll Die

The main riff on this song is pretty sick.

I was just about to make a link to that song before I saw your comment. That riff is definitely one of the best in the genre.

In The Shadow of the Horns also holds one of the best riffs in the genre.

I also enjoy the riffs in this song, specifically the intro riff which reoccurs near the end of the song:

 

[Jimmy... Dead.]

The whole song really, especially 1:14, 2:41 and 3:45 is Hypnotizing!

 

[Hail The Wizard!]

Lyrinx - Reflection of Opposites

 

[Prismatic Sphere]

Can't believe no one's posted this classic gem:

Jimmy... Dead: Can't believe I forgot that, great stuff.

 

[CF87]

I can't get into early Enslaved, but I bought Ruun when it came out and played it a lot. Awesome record.

The intro riff is simply awesome.

 

[Belligerent]

There are too many to mention, first one comes to mind is intro riff to "One By One" by Immortal.

 

[Zephyrus]

Any riff from the first Inquisition album.

 

[ASD]

There are too many to mention, first one comes to mind is intro riff to "One By One" by Immortal.

As well as the triplet-y riff right after that.

 

[alvesang]

Fuck Gorgoroth and all that second rate shit.

Call from the Grave - Bathory
