[Hell Awaits Us All]

Tom sounds great on every album.

his vocals on reign in blood = best thrash vocals ever

incredible energy, range, power, passion, aggression, etc... etc... etc...

Yup, perfect.

 

[Seditious]

Einherjer - Dead Knight's Rite
Ensiferum - Tale of Revenge
Glittertind - Olav Digre
Mithotyn - Hearts of Stone

 

[Hell Awaits Us All]

beginning riff to metallica "master of puppets" best thrash intro riff (possibly) ever

such a classic riff, induces some torrid headbanging + air guitaring.

man what fuck is with you and thrash vocalists? hetfield's voice suits metallica perfectly

 

[Thoth-Amon]

Yup... oh and I don't need to play air guitar to that song... I can play the whole damn song! Though it isn't that difficult actually...

 

[WarLord Aden]

Wait, Necrophagist write riffs?

Nope.

They write musical masterpieces.

Their 'riffs' are so fucking awesome and technical theyre just as hard as guitar solo's in other metal bands!!


I think, at the moment, there are millions i could list, but i'll just put a few, some of the coolest riffs can be found in:

Wintersun - Battle Against Time (The intro riff, so simple, but so awesome)

Imperanon - Corroded (The intro riff again, with all the rest of the instruments playing along.. sounds great)

Necrophagist - Only Ash Remains (throughout the song, but the final riff, from 'Romeo and Juliet' is SO great.)




..there are millions more, but just those for now.

 

[Mythos Inibri]

as far as great metal riffs go I'd have to say

the album Clandestine by Entombed great fucking riffage there

alot of the early Black Sabbath stuff of course

and why??? because I say so

 

[Son of Evil]

'Rebellion in Dreamland' by Gamma Ray. And the entire self-titled album of Grave Digger is loaded with memorable riffs.
