Re: Your Favourite Riffs
Ooo, I like riffs.
The entirety of Vulgar Display of Power.. but if I had to pick just one, Mouth for War:
The Sword - Freya:
Fu Manchu - Make Them Believe. That opening riff is killer:
QOTSA - You Think I Ain't Worth a Dollar, But I Feel Like a Millionaire. Starts at 0:45:
Kyuss - Demon Cleaner. So many good Kyuss riffs, this is just one:
Nick Drake - Road. Does this count? The timing fucks me every time:
The Voidz - Pyramid of Bones:
Truckfighters - Desert Cruiser:
RHCP - Nobody Weird Like Me:

Re: Your Favourite Riffs
Excellent choices! Mouth for War has two huge riffs, both verse and chorus. The Sword and Fu Manchu are both brilliant. I really love the 'We Must Obey' album - this is one of many great riffs on there:
If we're talking Josh Homme, this is probably my pick: https://youtu.be/gf6qnX4rmDU?t=30s. Well, today at least.

Riffers I like:
Cornell Dupree - BB King and Donny Hathaway
Prince - Joy in Repetition, It, I Rock Therefore I am
Tom Morello - Original Fire, Revelations, Bombtrack
Eric Clapton - Pilgrim, love that riff with his high vocal
Bully Duffy - quite a few Cult tunes
Somebody De Leo - Stone Temple Pilots guy.. Tiny Music album

Re: Your Favourite Riffs
apart from what's been mentioned already:
Procreation of the wicked-Celtic Frost.
I am the Black Wizards-Emperor.
Atlantis-Angel Witch.

There are still some that think the neck PU is moved to accommodate the extra frets which only proves they cannot detect the difference in length of each.

Re: Your Favourite Riffs
Dont forget intro riff of april sun is high up there too. Instantly recognisable!
When faced with quality, I recognise it every time.

Not the thread for it, but their drummer is fucking excellent. Totally drives all of their best tracks.

Love so many Deftones riffs... I think this is my favourite (like all of them in this song):
