Fun Stuff > BAND
Help me, Music Forumers, you're my only hope!
LiterSize:
I couldn't decide where to put this; either in I like fish or here. But it's music-related so here we go.
I need suggestions on songs that have banging guitar riffs. Chugga-chugga is good, but I'd like to hear some diverse thoughts on this. I need to be able to wail, as I will be air guitaring to it.
Some thoughts I've had are:
Hair bands
Led Zeppelin
AC/DC - Long way to the top
Offspring - Kids aren't alright (the opening riff)
Local H - ... a few songs in mind.
But I need some other input on this, if anyone has other suggestions please let me know. Thanks!

amok:
riffs eh...
Opeth - Moonlapse Vertigo
Kyuss - Supa Scoopa and Mighty Scoop
Fu Manchu - Squash That Fly
QOTSA - Regular John
Dream Theater - The Glass Prison
Motörhead - Overkill
Turbonegro - Turbonegro Must Be Destroyed (is that the name of the song? been awhile)
Monster Magnet - Powertrip
Black Sabbath - Children of the Grave
onewheelwizzard:
Black Sabbath and Blue Cheer were co-owners of the idea of "riff" in the first place, until Kyuss picked it up after they dropped it. Kyuss owns it to this day, and Queens of the Stone Age rents it out constantly.
Really, though, the songs that stand out the most for me in terms of their riff are:
Mondo Generator - Like You Want
Parchman Farm - Say Yeah
The Bevis Frond - Maybe
Masters of Reality - Kill The King
Kyuss - any song at all
Dozer - Man Made Mountain, The Hills Have Eyes
500 Ft. of Pipe - Marshmallow
Buffalo - The Prophet
Desert Sessions 1+2 - Screamin' Eagle
Dead meadow - Drifting Down Streams, Good Moanin', The White Worm
Blue Cheer - Parchman Farm, Babylon
ZZ Top - Precious and Grace
Black Sabbath - Into The Void, N.I.B.
The Black Keys - Thickfreakness, If You See Me, Till I Get My Way
Baby Woodrose - Pouring Water
Queens of the Stone Age - If Only, Walkin' On The Sidewalks, Mexicola, God is On the Radio, 18 AD
Hope this helps.
Thrillho:
Bloodhound Gang - Most of their songs have massive metal riffs in. Boneheaded, but great.
Radiohead - Paranoid Android, Lucky
Graham Coxon - Standing On My Own Again
Marcy Playground - Hotter Than The Sun
Mad Capsule Markets - Tribe (the guitar riff during the bass solo is fucking brilliant)
