@Nevin Rettew thanks for telling me I'll edit it now 👍
Thanks for this mate
any playlist with these songs?
Thanks🤘👍
0:22 Doomsday-Archi...Oh no ups
Can we all agree that Choke by Bury tomorrow is a total fckn banger ?
I love the "Read between the lines, more than meets the eye" riff
Can we agree that Cannibal (the entire album) by Bury Tomorrow is a total fckn banger?*
@@jasonlovesmusicreacting882 Yes 100% and they're amazing live too!
@@jasonlovesmusicreacting882 totally mate its been on repeat since it came out ! Every track on this album is fckn amazing
not sure if we can all agree but i agree
BRUUUUH HE PUT BURY TOMORROW WHAT A LEGEND
Such an underrated band with such good songs
@@Ulty_Official I know man
@@Ulty_Official bury tomorrow is underrated? I feel like they get some recognition
@@ZIMBO37333 Not as much as they deserve
2020 was all about breakdowns. Both mental and metal.
So happy Doom music made it onto this list
Overall the year was pretty crap but at least there was some good new music.
This is probably the best year for score music since like 2012
many heavy
Yeah probably because everyone is staying inside in there guitar “lair” and making music because what else can you do
@@Deek1290 Just means hopefully late summer early fall of 2021 is going to be a banger time for concerts.
Great year for metal
I'm so happy to see underrated cuts like Monarch, The Defiant, and Better Days in here alongside SOTY bangers like Holy Roller, Snowblood, and Trilogy. :D
Wouldn't call stuff like currents underrated in comparison to rogue
@@drkstrnd well, Rogue is absolutely boring and unoriginal
@@drkstrnd Better Days wasn't a single and doesn't get mentioned as often as at least half the album, which is why I put it there.
Monarch is my fave from Greyview
The Defiant is underrated? Wow, that's my favorite song for 2020 for sure. But I love Trivium more than the average metalhead so...
I feel like this number should be bumped up to 100. There HAS to be more good riffs like these out there somewhere
he slept on While She Sleeps :')
I'm super surprised Sleeps Society wasn't in this tbh
Good to see some Diamond Construct love here. They're filling a Dealer shaped hole
Got a little excited that it was included hey, what a fuckin band
Filling a Dealer shaped hole and then some for me haha
I don't know about filling a dealer shaped hole but they have been a standout band for me this year
I just discovered them and im in love.
They're dope!
I didn’t think you’d go for the fast bit of 40 roll!!! Good work :)
So happy you put Bury Tomorrow in this they really deserve more recognition
They're awesome!
Sylosis, they got in right before the gates closed.
Lpl
Aha yup, love that riff!
Funking love sylosis their music just hits me right in the core
If you don't put Lorna shore and signs of the swarm to best breakdown compilation I will find you and put cottage cheese in to one pair of your socks.
WOAH CHILL
DO IT
I like cottage cheese
@@NikNocturnal but I don't think it would be pleasant, if you find it in a sock you are going to put on. Btw I like cottage cheese too
2020 may have sucked but the riffs didn't 🤘
your profile pic is my profile pic on Instagram lmfao
I was expecting “memento mori” but glad LoG made it, their album was really dope and enjoyable 🤘🏻
Dude Currents needs more love, they constantly put out some serious bangers.
The only song by them that I don’t love is life//lost but otherwise they only put out bangers
Nik, you killed it as always and the fact you put Erra's new song up here made it even better. I know that was fun to learn. 😂
My favorite type of Christmas music.
SOOO glad you put 40 roll on this. Chris is an absolute beast. My favorite song at the moment
I love the inclusion of a song from the Doom Eternal OST!! So many good riffs from that score 🤘
THANK YOU for including Generic by Diamond Construct. been preaching how hard that fucking riff goes ever since i heard it
So glad you put rogue in here... That band is way underappreciated
2020 sucked but thank you for all the content you’ve put out this year Nic your guitar covers, song reactions and your own material has really helped me and I’m sure in making this year slightly more tolerable! Thanks man! 💜
Missing Bleed from Within here. So many bangers on their new album...
Yes!!! I remember commenting Currents - Better Days on nik’s Facebook post as I didn’t see anyone else mention it. Glad to see it’s up there
So sick 🤘 These riffs made my day
Hell Yea I’m friends with the guitar player in Rogue, Jeffery is an awesome dude and player!!
Fuck, I just wanna say I really appreciate how you put underrated bands like Rogue and Bury Tomorrow in rather than just mainstream Lamb of God or Architects.I also found out that I need to listen to Diamond Construct and Currents now so thank you, lmao.
Currents only puts out bangers you will not be disappointed
Awesome channel man.
Those were some absolute bangers! Thanks for shedding light!
Nice to see purge there, I don't know if you know them but a great band with some really heavy riffs should've been on here, you ever heard of termina?
5:56 I Speak Astronomy-Jinj... Oh ups.. Sorry
Very good list mang
That Carcosa riff (5:56) just sounds like "I Speak Astronomy" by Jinjer. It's those two quick pulls that set me off
1 second in, already love it
I know and work with the vocalist from ROGUE. It's pretty killer to see his music make the list
This is how I started watching you last year. I watched the top riffs of the year. It’s crazy how it’s been a whole year since I’ve started watching this channel!!
This Is Sick Nocturnal ;)
I want the full cover of Snowblood rn!
Hell yeah, loving lmtf on the list as always.
You just introduced me to so much badass stuff.
That was a killer vidya dude. Added some of these to my playlist!
God I can’t get over how good that guitar tone is
Meh
@St. Jimmy best thing on the market for suuureeeee
@St. Jimmy oh I know, I’m just saying it’s so sexy
Ola with the cheapest stuff makes better tones than me with the best
6:00 Carcosa - Absent: Post totally remembers me of Jinjer - I Speak Astronomy on the first part of that riff.
Definitely.
super hype you featured Bones by Make Them Suffer, easily my favorite riffs this year
that was actually pretty good Nik. Thanks!
any riff from cycle of suffering... fight me
Cane hill 🖤🖤
Great work. Also, I just saw the "Up next" is a video called "500 Heaviest Riffs" from four months ago. I completely missed that epic collection of riffs and I'll listen to all of it soon.
I know how much effort you must have put into this, and these videos in general. I'm trying my hand at content myself (different niche but I do play guitar and love metal) and man is it hard to not get in front of the camera and not look like a shmuck. Good on you for plowing ahead and learning all of these songs and playing them so well.
No Ariana Grande?
No shawn mendez
NO TRAPT!!
@@Trent2002W Oh no guys. Cocamelon!!!!!!!!
agreed, they shouldve put tim henson's ariana flip
No taylor swift? She was in billboard's top rock list, after all..
Outsider by Veil Of Maya is just a banger bro
Some of these made me realize that some of these band had new albums in 2020! Good looks nic
Sick riffs!
I haven’t heard the whole song. But that Architects riff just makes me think of Rammstein.
It’s a very rammstein riff for sure
Have you checked out four year strong brain pain or silverstein’s newest album?
Some of those four year strong riffs could probably hold their own on this list
Awesome video. Keep it up ✊🏻😎🤍
I would have loved to see something from The Black Dahlia Murder here but it’s all good man! Thanks for doing these kinds of videos. They give me tons of bands to check out that I otherwise may have missed! 🤘🏻
Memento Mori by Lamb of God is definitely a top riff this year
Poison Dream tho
Like what is your doing Nick, the one you picked is...NOT GREAT
I prefer Checkmate
Agreed, and the drums on that song are killer. Still love that song as much now as I did when first heard it. Memento Mori & The Defiant are the Metal Songs of the Year for me.
I don't know when I first heard Resurrection Man on XM radio, I started windmilling in my car at a stop light only to see the driver next to me staring.
Choke is such a sick riff
^^^^^
Nik summarizing the whole 2020 bangers 🔥🔥🔥
More than Half of these songs were definitely my most listened to this year and the other half I hadn’t heard yet.
He said the only thing that made any sense this year
"2020 sucked"
2020 is the year of the low F#
also 2020 sucked so hard i forgot Invent Animate released the new album this year
Imo it shouldn't go lower than that, this is where still many bands can pull off a good sound, but any lower and its just disgusting, some already struggle with F#
A lot of these songs I know through Nik's reactions and covers, not gonna lie, thanks Nik!
So many new bands to checkout! Hot damn, what a year for the almighty riff at least. Here's to 2021! Cheers \m/
4:20 - Song is named "Power of the High" i see i see
some suggestions from outside the core genres: caligulas horse - valkyrie, mors principium est - rebirth, alustrium - dark waters, protest the hero - all hands, haken - messiah complex
Bruh, the verse riff in Messiah Complex V is so heavy
@@hyalinamusic18 yeah, many good riffs there
How no riff from Protest The Heros fabulous album made it on Niks list is beyond me. But well, tastes are different after all. 🤷♂️
bro, there were some BANGER riffs on Seether's new album, Si Vis Pacem, Para Bellum. Beg and the breakdown of Pride Before the Fall are some of my favorites
Lol Holy Roller was the first song I thought of when I saw the title. Great vid, just wish you included the tunings for each ;)
man, I love Architects, but Animals doesn't even have a single riff in it
Currents-Better Days ❤
Ikr !
Yeah that song slaps
Hype to see power of the high on this list. Cane Hill is such an amazing band.
So good to see your old Schecter gettin some love :D
Shout out to the homies in ROGUE! Banger of an EP
What a surprise to see Holy Roller first
I just wanted to say to you NIC NOCTURNAL...you have shown me such awe inspiring tips and riffs and a whole bunch of new bands for my Spotify playlist thank you so much...you make me want to get my electric guitar and amp out of pawn and play till my fingers fall off. You are a fucking beast thanks for everything.
Darko riffs are lit af, was waiting for them here 😁
Never thought I'd see Chris Turner in a "best riffs" compilation lol. Not that I'm complaining
Not gonna lie, I would've put Protect the Land from System of a Down on here as well. The riff kicks ass and I'll honestly say that it's one of Daron Malakian's best
Love the video! I think my personal favorite riff this year was Born To Fail by Dance Gavin Dance.
Sylosis a new addition & such a sick riff! Wow Nick, great video.
My favourite you didn't play is from Soilwork, 'the nothingness and the devil'
"Mom, can we have Doomsday - Architects?"
"We have Doomsday - Architects at home"
Doomsday - Architects at home: 0:23
Anything in that tuning sounds like an Architects song, they pretty much own it.
Also 3:35
If I was the kid I wouldn't be complaining about the version at home in this scenario 🤷♂️
Yoooo! Rogue, let's go!! Don't sleep on that album gang
I really hope within the ruins is in the breakdown vid. The breakdown at the end of deliverance goes hard af
So stoked you chucked Generic by DC in there, riff is huge
Rogue is the most underrated band right now
They're awesome!
“Tuning: A lot of metal stuff”
It true
@@NikNocturnal my comment has been blessed I can never wash my eyeballs ever again
I know im probably late but thank you so much for putting holy roller first! spiritbox is one of my favorite bands! and then putting animals just made my day. thank you! \m/
I can't believe everyone slept on "Immersed in Ire" by Viscera. "Obsidian" was my favorite new album of the year, period. NIK, MY GUY. PLEASE CHECK THIS OUT BEFORE THE YEAR IS OVER.
Do a metal cover of Everywhere at the End of Time
2020 sucked but 2020 riffs were fire.
Much love for including Doom OST
You missed Deicide - I am Abomination \m/ siiick album from this year. However, those riffs were siick too, GJ ;) I always end up discovering new bands with your vid xD
2020 sucked but the songs tho 100/10 this year
I have to say i feel like the djenty riffs are way too many at this point...it has become pretty stale, metalcore needs more variety
Archetypes collide - your misery. Sick riff, sick breakdown! Smaller group but they recorded with beartooth bassist which is dope!
Nice video! I’m just disappointed I haven’t seen anything on verminous By BDM but still. Good job man
