125: MEMORABLE METAL RIFFS

125: MEMORABLE METAL RIFFS

Without RIFFS, we’d be without METAL, because “the riff” represents the foundation, the anchor, the “meat” if you will, of the song. Irregardless (and/or regardless) of the artist, whether it’s Sabbath, Maiden or Slayer, the power of the riff (according to Jimmy Bower) is indeedly compelling and critically important to creating catchy, MEMORABLE, timeless metal tunes.

It’s a New Year of nonsense here at our 33rd Floor I.U.B.P. Studios, so you know what that means: It’s time to understand the greater repercussional implications of “getting bleached” and “more boned” whilst battling extreme “Hage”, put on your “Olde Faece”, shave off those “crispy pubes” and JOIN US as we dive into Vol. 1 of some of the most MEMORABLE METAL RIFFS ever!
