these are close to my fav riffs of all time, and are the ones i can mention of the top of my head.

listed as

band - album - song

Strapping Young Lad - City - All Hail The New Flesh

Zyklon - Aeon - Psyklon Aeon

Soilwork - The Chainheart Machine - The Chainheart Machine

funnily enough i think my fav riffs are the bands fav riffs too. simply because they are the first songs of their albums. well first song after the intro.

Some personal favorites. Not necessarily only riffing but overall songwriting for each song.

Possessed - Seven Churches(specifically the song but the whole album is killer)

Bathory - A Fine Day To Die (no better Blackmetal epic riffing. Blood Fire Death has such a HUGE guitar sound. even though recorded off a 25 watt Yamaha practice amp.)

Slayer - Hardening of the Arteries

Judas Priest - Hellion/Electric Eye

Ozzy Osbourne - Diary of a Madman (esp. the breakin from the aucoustic to electric. This change is so powerful and chilling)

Motley Crue - Knock 'Em Dead Kid (Probably one of the heaviests riffs written from the Hollywood Hair metal bands)

Rolling Stones - Paint It Black

Marduk - Wolves

Necrovore - Treacherous Abominations

Necrovore - King For Fools
