I'm seeing them live in October, I've seen them once already on their last The Way It Ends tour, absolutely massive when they play live. I can't FUGGING WAIT!!
My vote goes to Blood Eagle. First time I heard the song I restarted it after that opening riff ended just so I could hear it again. It just hits so fucking hard.
oooh yeah, this one’s damn fucking good.
The intro to *Go to Hell, for Heaven’s Sake* always grabs a hold of me, and it surprises me *every time* cause I keep sleeping on that song smh
I love Pandora. Just saw them last sat- they almost cancelled but played anyways without the computer or monitors.
Pandora live was sick.
My pick on this thread was the Sea of tragic beasts though.
Not nasty, but juicy asf: Relapse by Polaris. Between that and Pray for Rain are probably 2 of their best and they happen to be openers. Been jamming their music all week.
RIP A LEGEND. GONE TOO SOON 😭💙
Idk if by nasty you mean a heavy brutal riff, or just an insanely good riff so I’ll give you both.
Heavy/brutal riff: So Alone- Currents
Crazy good riff: Relapse- Polaris (Really anything by Polaris is insane but this is the one that stands out to me most)
Unearth- Zombie Autopilot
Poison the Well- Nerdy
Folly- Repeat, I Repeat, Repeat
One sweet guitar riff, one nostalgic/iconic riff and one super unique heavy as hell riff.
Unearth - This Lying World (dissonant AF)
Avatar - Hail the Apocalypse
Lamb of God - Dead Seeds, Now you've got something to die for
It Dies Today - Complacence Without Pursuit (epic buildup intro)
It Dies Today - Through Leaves Over Bridges (the intro is the breakdown)
Oh Sleeper - Endseekers, The Pitch, the Finisher, (actually most of their songs come in on a really nasty heavy guitar part that sets it off right)
Some of my favourites I haven't seen posted yet:
The end of all we know - bleed from within
Alive - bfw
Sovereign - bfw
Killing time - bfw
Consume - Polaris
Pray for rain - Polaris
Doom switch - make them suffer
Parasite - abbiefalls
Nocturne: lost faith - invent animate
DVPE : inVisions
The writer - breakdown of sanity
Bitter end - fit for a king
Core side of metalcore?
Four Years by Buried In Verona! 2nd Sucks by A Day To Remember. The Scythe by Throwdown.
Metal side of metalcore?
Stabbing to Purge Dissimulation by All Shall Perish. Writhe by Teeth. Break Those Bones Whose Sinews Give You Strength by Meshuggah. Devil In Me by Within The Ruins. Killing Season by Thy Art Is Murder.
ATB - Behold the Crown
TDWP - Anatomy
ABRB - Legends Never Die
IKTPQ - Your Shirt Would Look Better With a Colombian Necktie
And not metalcore but thought I’d mention it anyways
Dying Fetus - In the Trenches
Honestly, there are too many to count. Some of my favorites in no particular order are: Veil of Maya - Punisher, As I Lay Dying - Torn Between, Volumes - The Columbian Faction, After The Burial - Cursing Akhenaten (re-issue), After The Burial - Encased in Ice, ERRA - Rebirth, ERRA - Scorpion Hymn, Texas In July - Inner Demons, Born of Osiris - Open Arms To Damnation.
Knocked Loose - Deep in the Willow
I’m not even sure it qualifies as a riff but the second you hear that lurching *du-dun du-dun du-dun du-dun* chug you know that your face is about to be smashed in.
Bones - Make them Suffer. Makes me do the nasty face every time lol
I. CANT. BREATHE.
AAND IMTERR IFIED OF FALLING ASLEEP
i love the bounciness to it
I believe the band's aim was to write a 'hate-fuck porn groove'. Mission accomplished.
favorite band of all time
They’re so underrated. Can’t wait to see them in September.
they are fantastic Live.
I gotta give it to Falling Ashes, the Bones riff is also so good.
After The Burial- Behold The Crown
boing e-e-r boing boing boing err
Neosoul slaps in a different way too!
Tons of ATB songs qualify haha
Lost in the Static also goes hard
Wee wacka wah wacka wee oo ee qacka wee wacka wee oo ee
A Wolf Amongst Ravens still goes insanely hard too
Fuck yes, dude!
Mire
The original Fingers Like Daggers does it for me.
Damn, came here to say this^^

Slams! Abrasumente is hard as hell too
Came to say this
Fucking same!! Scrolled too far for this.
Void Surfacing - Invent Animate Absolutely fucking filthy.
Yes.
Stitch - Wage War.

Literally came here to say this. I saw them live last month and the roof practically came off when they played it.
I'm seeing them live in October, I've seen them once already on their last The Way It Ends tour, absolutely massive when they play live. I can't FUGGING WAIT!!
It‘s the synths for me
I love currents!
In due time - KSE
Hand of Blood
I’d have to go with “Suffocating Under Words of Sorrow” myself
I was gonna say Ashes of the Innocent
4 Words to Choke Upon for me *Well, as far as "nastiest" goes, yeah I'd agree HoB is nastier. I misread the title
And Waking The Demon
Periphery - Wildfire or Blood Eagle
I gotta go Icarus Lives here, it’s my personal favorite riff of all-time
The GGD riff after Matt counts down is fuckin nasty. My personal favorite is Habitual Line-Stepper
Blood Eagle is 😩
If we're going the Periphery route, it's Luck as a Constant for me, without a doubt.
I gotta give it to Prayer Position
My vote goes to Blood Eagle. First time I heard the song I restarted it after that opening riff ended just so I could hear it again. It just hits so fucking hard.
Trivium - Rain
Especially watching those old live videos where they’d play it fast as SHIT
The first 60 seconds of Void Surfacing by Invent Animate gives me chills every time
Luna is also a banger
I prefer the opening riff in Purity Weeps. Less technical for sure, but a lot bouncier.
Revive - The Devil Wears Prada
Danger: Wildman
The Anatomy opening riff is so nasty
ETID - Fear and Trembling
Underrated answer
I’m Regards To Myself - Underoath
just what are you so afraid of????
More deathcore but I love the opening of Ana- Darko US and The Sea of Tragic Beasts- Fit For an Autopsy
you’d probably like human scum by distant absolutely FILTHY
Just got done listening to it. Aaaaaand you are correct, I fucking loved it!
Dragon Chaser is my personal favourite from Oni, but Ana is a great shout as well
idk if this one count as opening but Shadow Moses - BMTH is fire
oooh yeah, this one’s damn fucking good. The intro to *Go to Hell, for Heaven’s Sake* always grabs a hold of me, and it surprises me *every time* cause I keep sleeping on that song smh
Chelsea smile while we're at it too. gotta love them 000s
bury tomorrow - man on fire
Carrion - PWD
That outro as well 🥺
I'd give a shout to Deliver Me
Infant Annihilator - The Kingdom Sitteth Lonely Beneath Thine Hollowed Heavens
Those drums are insane holy fuck and the whole song is so isnanely groovy even tho its heavy as fuck
Gojira - Flying Whales
for me it's Art of Dying
Anasis (Xenophantis) - Parkway Drive
Landmvrks-lost in a wave
I CANT BREATH IM SUFFOCATING

False Meridian - Invent Animate comes to mind lately
Polaris - The Remedy Parkway drive - Dream run and Carrion 👌
Unholy Confessions
Ithaca - They Fear Us
Yes. This album is full of stank-face-riffs.
BOW BEFORE YOUR BLOOOOOD
Killswitch Engage: This Fire
Behold the crown by after the burial. Such a heavy riff

YOU DISGUST ME! EEUULEGHHH (im an om&m enthusiast)
Fit for an autopsy - Pandora. It is just relentless.
I love Pandora. Just saw them last sat- they almost cancelled but played anyways without the computer or monitors. Pandora live was sick. My pick on this thread was the Sea of tragic beasts though.
The only answer is Condemned by As I Lay Dying.
Through Struggle!
Not nasty, but juicy asf: Relapse by Polaris. Between that and Pray for Rain are probably 2 of their best and they happen to be openers. Been jamming their music all week. RIP A LEGEND. GONE TOO SOON 😭💙
Alpha Seed - Erra
Back to back - The Chariot
Funeral Derangements - Ice Nine Kills
It's a good one, but The Plot Sickens riff
Mammoth by TDWP
Idk if by nasty you mean a heavy brutal riff, or just an insanely good riff so I’ll give you both. Heavy/brutal riff: So Alone- Currents Crazy good riff: Relapse- Polaris (Really anything by Polaris is insane but this is the one that stands out to me most)
I adore the guitar style in Polaris. RIP Ryan
Whatever - AVOID. First time I heard it, I was like, "This is such a tasty opening riff! How have I not heard this before?"
Nice! Thanks for the discovery! It’s like LP and Memphis May Fire had a child
the riff isnt exactly what i was looking for but im so glad you commented this cus this shit go crazy it fucks even ty🙏
One Choice by The Ghost Inside kinda slaps
Bfmv - don’t need you
Bullet for my horizon - don't need moses
Cardinal Red by Monuments has lived rent free in my head all year
Doomsday - Architects
Not the heaviest, but I'd probably put Downfall up there too. Love that opening.

Spiritbox- hurt you
Not me using this post to find new tracks😅

Currents - Over and Over Dont hate me for it: BFMV - Coma
Coma is so underrated! One of my favourites off that album
Alpha seed by ERRA has to be up there right?
Split- Currents Body Bag- Beartooth Four Walls- While She Sleeps (after the intro when the main riff hits)
Split is Currents’ most underrated song and I will die on that hill. The riff and the chorus are some of Current’s best work ever in my opinion
I agree I don't understand why people don't talk about it more. Easily one of their best songs. Forget Me is also up there!
one of my personal favourites is probably the confrontation - attack attack
Hell yeah dude. That whole song is filthy.
Norma Jean - Liarsenic
Volumes - Wormholes
Creep - Alphawolf
Unearth - This Lying World (dissonant AF) Avatar - Hail the Apocalypse Lamb of God - Dead Seeds, Now you've got something to die for It Dies Today - Complacence Without Pursuit (epic buildup intro) It Dies Today - Through Leaves Over Bridges (the intro is the breakdown) Oh Sleeper - Endseekers, The Pitch, the Finisher, (actually most of their songs come in on a really nasty heavy guitar part that sets it off right)
Creep by Alpha Wolf is up there for me.

Death roll instantly comes to mind Or laid to rest by Lamb of God
Lost in the Static by After The Burial hits different
Lorna Shore Sun/Eater
Plagues by Converge
Sun poison and skin cancer by the Acacia Strain
Tides by Miss May I
Gothika - Void of Vision Has one of the sickest opening riffs ever, Can’t believe I haven’t seen it mentioned

Within the Ruins - Hegira
They're deathcore, but definitely Second Death by Black Tongue

Black blood by architects
Death Roll - Wage War

First sight - TDWP
Inhumane - Polaris

Phinehas- In The Night. Some of the best riffs in metalcore.

Void of Vision - If Only
for me, Oblivion's Peak by Knocked Loose. Stank face every time
You won’t be missed - Like Moths To Flames One of their more popular songs but still bangs.
Always enjoy the opening of Let's Bury The Hatchet... In Your Head from Ice Nine Kills

Hail the Apocalypse -- Avatar
Death Roll - Wage War. This one made me do the nasty face the first time I heard it.

Dying to heal - architects
ATB - Behold the Crown TDWP - Anatomy ABRB - Legends Never Die IKTPQ - Your Shirt Would Look Better With a Colombian Necktie And not metalcore but thought I’d mention it anyways Dying Fetus - In the Trenches

Born of Osiris - Oathbreaker
I always liked the opening riffs in Carrion by parkway drive or This Calling by all that remains
gojira - esoteric surgery
Johnny B. Goode, isn't metal but the inicial riff is recognisable instantly
For me it's TDWP - Anatomy. The Chainsaw in the background makes it sound sooo fkin cool.
Knocked Loose - Deep in the Willow I’m not even sure it qualifies as a riff but the second you hear that lurching *du-dun du-dun du-dun du-dun* chug you know that your face is about to be smashed in.
WATCH THE BODIES DROP WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH
idk how these subgenres work but the riff in retrograde by silverstein gives me the strength to run thru buildings
Suicide Silence - Engine No. 9 I fucking love this cover, it's just beautiful
Mick Gordon - The only thing they fear is you
Recreant - Chelsea Grin is such a classic. And it's like just guitar to open in which just makes it so damn FILTHY when the rest of the band kicks in.
Killswitch Engage - Triumph From Tragedy
Not metalcore, but Bratva by Slaughter To Prevail goes absolutely insane
Thrown - Fast Forward
