Best drop D riffs of all time

[idssdi]

I watched this video of Rick Beato naming his favourite drop D riffs of all time and there's some cool stuff in there.

He also mentions he would like to get Syn on again which is pretty cool!

Hell yea! I've set notifications for every new upload Rick puts out lol

It hurt me a little that Nightmare was so low on his count however there was a lot of great riffs he mentioned!! And I would say he picked a damn good one from Avenged's plethora of groov'n drop D riffs!!

What's your fav drop D riff from a7x?

What's your fav drop D riff from a7x?

I wanted to say paradigm but that's in drop C# so doesn't count

It's probably roman Sky if that even counts as a riff but love the chords in that one.

What's yours?

drop D is so fun to play in! Like ids, i wanted to say my favorite drop d riff is No more tears by ozzy but thats also in C#

For A7X id say my favorite riff from them is the verse riff in Afterlife. Its an instant head bobber, no matter how many times i hear it, never gets old.

Honestly that was the first riff that came to mind for me too, so good!!

Fuck this is a tough one, but between unholy confessions, girl i know and afterlife and dancing dead and strength of the world and turn the other way and god damn, im going to have to go with Afterlife too.

Solid list ! Now I’ve got a few more I wanna try

So glad Everlong was on there though, one of my absolute favorites and so fun to play !

I like Betrayed, I think there was a lot of cool techniques in one song. I haven't played every a7x song, I feel like I have to play them perfect, so I just keep putting it off cause I get tired

Honestly, the verse riff in Strength of the World is tons of fun to play.
