i'm looking for a good rock sounding riff - something that sounds real thick kinda like AC/DC or Metallica. you know a good rock song is what it is for

Hey, it's one of those classic chord progressions. I used the BGDA when I wrote Avoiding The Girl (http://www.purevolume.com/player_pop.php?profile_id=5999&k=159&first=16311) in high school. :)

I usually just fiddle around on the piano to figure out riffs to write in songs, but that's because I'm a piano player.

TS, we can't write the song for you. Try the Pentatonic scale, for an easy solo.

I think that's the chord progression in Dig Up Her Bones by The Misfits too.

:) It is. If I remember correctly, it starts with A#.
