duhhh - 'sin city' has a much better riff than back in black
anyone who thinks 'paranoid' contains sabbaths best riff hasn't listened to very much sabbath. 'black sabbath' dudes.
anyway this was clearly voted for by retardos and put into a magazine for retardos.
the guitar break in 'angel of death' and guitar duel in 'emerald' shoudl be in any poll by default. even general elections.
'enter sandman' ? jesus. i mean satan.

the opening 3 chords on "black sabbath" DEFINE heavy metal, everything else is interpretation.

[ITalkShite]

why hasn't hag posted about the fucking champs yet?

 

[SONYMEGADRIVE]

although not quite as killer as the main riff, the guitar break towards the end is some of the sickest shit known to humankind
i heard that they reverse engineered sick alien riffs after a space band crashed in roswell or something

Does anybody remember on MTV years ago (when it was MTV Europe and it was half good) they used to have this little "ident" or whatever you call them, it was a collection of samples of various guitar players from loads of videos playing guitar solos all joined together into a one minute piece or something.

AC/DC, Van Halen, but I'll be damned if I can remember anymore, they distorted the video too so it was all psychedelic. Does anybody remember what I'm on about?
