Metalcore-melodic Death Riffs
A top ten of my top 10 fav metalcore/melodic death riffs, that's my fav genre too |
| 1 | Blinded By Fear - At The Gates
The main riff is the best riff ever, simply 'cause every metal riff we hear from 1995 to our days has surely influenced by this song. This song is the mother of Metalcore (and of Melodic Death Metal, the one more aggressive, too)! |
| 2 | The Silent Divide - Anterior
A genious riffmaker as Leon Kemp, probably grown listening to 'Slaughter Of The Soul', has take the lesson of swedish melodeath and take it to another level. Awesome. |
| 3 | When All Light Dies - Trivium
One of my favourite soings ever. The typical melodic death/metalcore riff you can hear here it's one of the coolest that a metalcore band has ever made. Matt Heafy is one of the best songwriter I've have ever know |
| 4 | Unhallowed - Dissection
A metalcore riff in a black metal band? Yeah, it seems strange, and it's a wrong affermation, but the style is similar, so I put this one in my list! |
| 5 | Dead Divine - Anterior
Just listen... |
| 6 | Waking The Demon - Bullet For My Valentine
A raging riff from a top-ten hit band..they can be melodic or aggressive, and this is the cause of their greatness! |
| 7 | Tunguska - Darkest Hour
One of the most underrated melodeath bands, this is one of their best riffs! |
| 8 | Sanctity Of Brothers - Unearth
Here is a bit different riff, more inluenced by '80 thrash metal. |
| 9 | Nothing Left - As I Lay Dying
A raging riff, maybe inspired from 'Battery' by Metallica. |
| 10 | A Gunshot To The Head Of Trepidation - Trivium
This one is just a simple, fast and cool riff. |
