The creepiest metal riffs

[mutantllama]

Allthough my official nominée would be Black Sabbaths self titled title track of their first album. Very, very, very good and has creepy feeling to it. The riff that follows may also be one of the best riffs I have ever heard period!

.

 

[Lateralus14]

Ok it's doomy and an amazing song but I'm not feelin' the creepy..w/e

 

[Tonka Time]

In addition to what has already been posted from BAN and DsO:

Arkhon Infaustus - Annunciation's "God Will Not Forgive"
Diapsiquir - Virus STN's "Diapsiquir"
Funeral Mist - Maranatha's "Blessed Curse"
Amok - Necrospiritual Deathcore's "Goatflesh Removal (Gloria in Excelsis Deo)"

 

[General Zaroff]

Deathspell Omega - First Prayer is creepy.

 

[Eligos]

judging by his post i dont think the OP is at the "shit your pants BM creepiness" level yet

I just read this again and lol'd hard. Dude, the OP is like a level 1 Rogue and me and ASD r fukin level 70 paladins!

 

[AchrisK]

Led Zeppelin - No Quarter

suck it!

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Tool version is much creepier sounding imo.

first time i heard my apocalypse by Arch Enemy, it gave me goosebumps

 

[HamburgerBoy]

It took me years to realize the evil contained in the pre-solo riff/melody thing in Iron Maiden's Still Life.

 

[Eligos]

I am so fucking creeped out by Godsmack.

And Slipknot's fucking fuck on the fuckface diaries.

 

[Nightmare_Heaven]

Bethlehem, diSEMBOWELMENT etc have plenty of nice eerie riffs, not to mention Brave Murder Day

 

[A1a23]

I gotta agree with the Blut Aus Nord post.

Allow me to also mention anything by Esoteric, with emphasis on the 20 minute evilfest "Circle," in which the incredibly simple funeral doom riffs are highly accentuated by the impossibly ear-piercing shrieks.

 

[With Strength I Burn]

Close to a World Below by Immolation.

The first riff:


The whole song, but I especially like the riff at 2:45:
