/riff/ general: resurrection edition
Since /metal/ is fucking dildos right now...
Posts must include a link including a piece that exhibits good riffs. What "good" is is pretty much left up to you. If a faggot challenges your taste, promptly put them in their place with an articulate rebuttal as to why your riff is a shit wrecker.
Since this is an image board, posting a pic with your post is also encouraged, but please, only the dankest of memes are allowed and must be related to metal.

Catchy, fast and melodic while at the same time being abrasive.

I love how similar these guys are to Melechesh.
Blending traditional Mongolian shit with Melodeath ain't easy.

I mean that breakdown at 3:48 is literally the greatest of all time

Not much riffage on this album as they're mostly established and repeated as to carry its black metal atmosphere, but tracks like this and Night's Blood are so good.

That intro ought to be everyone's first NWOBHM riff they try to learn.
>>60872657
Dominator shits all over A Sultan's Ransom.
You've got to pay close attention to the riffs drowned out by the solos. Such a waste really, poorly misplaced.
3:46
My point exactly: a neat riff underneath repeating lyrics, solos and drums being beaten the shit out of.

Goddamn that one at 8:45 is sweet

Groovy riffage throughout despite its fast tempo
>>60872473
>must be related to metal.
Because only metal has good riffs? Fuck off, imma post all the shitty memes I want.
>Black Hand Inn
Why does tremolo-picking work so well with melodic power metal? Running Wild are absolute legends in terms of chaotoc, slightly punky heavy metal.
