Your Favorite Riffs

[Master_Shredder]

I'm just getting into metal and was curious to what some of your guys' favorite guitar riffs are. Here are a few of my favorites so far.

Raining Blood, Death Speed Metal, and Here comes the Pain -Slayer
Fade to Black -Metallica
Revolution is my name, Heresy, Mouth for war, and Regular people -Pantera
Break You, Laid to Rest -Lamb of God.

There are some others I just can't think of them right now.
I just started listening to Children of Bodom so I'm sure there'll be some from them.

Post some of yours and why you like them.

 

[Koude Haat]

I also agree with Amott/Steer.

Otherwise, too many Gorguts riffs to mention.

'Corporal Jigsore Quandary'!
That's all I have to say...

...and 'No Love Lost'!

...and 'Incarnated Solvent Abuse'!

...and...FUCK! ...yeah, me too.

 

[Belligerent]

^ Hells yes! This Mortal Coil gives me a boner everytime I hear it...jk, no not really.
Hypocrisy - Roswell 47 is another classic.
Gojira "heaviest matter of the universe" is another devestating riff that needs to be mentioned. Not to mention a cool song title.
