      Especially considering Nuno Bettencourt is only one of the most unbelievably talented musicians ever. They are criminally underrated, probably because everyone thinks "hair band," and they only know the song "More Than Words," which is just really not representative of the rest of their catalog.

    Dude! The first time I heard The Leper Affinity, when that riff kicks in, I was absolutely standing there with my mouth open (whilst headbanging of course). I'm so happy that I watched to the end of the video and discovered that your favorite riff is also one of my favorite riffs. Once that riff happens, you know Blackwater Park is going to be a wild and unforgettable ride!

    • @MetalionMusic

      A close second for me on that album is the riff in A Funeral Portrait that happens from 2:00-2:30 in the song... in an album full of amazing riffs, that one in particular always without fail makes me feel something powerful and visceral.

      Well, it is far less praised than things like Crazy Train and even No More Tears, at least with modern radio, so that is likely the logical. There is often a lack of appreciation for the Jack E. Lee days of Ozzy time, so not touching on the two "main" guitarists, Randy and Zakk, makes sense.

      All I know is that Trust don't play the riff that way and I like their version better.
      In my last cover band they had the song and it was so good (I discovered it at that time) I had to play it as they play it, solo included.

      Also, I didn't expect some Muse even though your pick is awesome. I played it in my first cover band with some others including Hysteria and Stockholm Syndrom.
      And I expected some Opeth, then I was thinking "not sure if we can call any Opeth riffs 'underrated'", apparently we can! And again, love your pick.

    Watched the entire video thinking "damn this dude can play" and that all riffs were great picks. Subscribed immediately upon seeing that riff from Leper Affinity is your favourite of all time because it could very be mine as well! Keep putting out solid content dude!!!
    Edit: That Ihsahn riff is straight up nasssssty!

    • @Pleurotus

      Actually, now that I think about it... the title track also has one super-syncopated monster riff in 14/4 (not sure how a schooled musician would count that, I'm sure you can correct me) in its mid-section, right before Loomis starts sweeping that solo out of the galaxy... THAT is my nr.1 favourite Nevermore riff ever, and they only repeat it 4 times and that's it. Do you know what riff I'm talking about? Jeff and Steve play two different versions of it, one palm-muted and one with open strings.

    I know it’s a few years late and not exactly what you might expect but the riff from The Cure’s song End is astounding. It’s so simple, beginner level really, but the way it twists at your heart is amazing.

Your videos are really just amazing, entertaining and educating, especially your tutorial videos (sweeping tutorial helped me a LOT).
