7 string riffs that make you lose it

[soldierkahn]

Korn's "Coming Undone" and near the end of Divine Heresy's "Impossible Is Nothing" right before he starts the solo, the suuuupppeeerrr fast triplet gallops.....

ohhhh yeah and how could ANYONE forget


KORN's breakdown in "Somebody Someone"........ Ultimate heaviness there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[7StringofAblicK]

Bridge to to Unearth's "Bled Dry"

bridge to mercenary's "Redefine Me"

 

[Jysan]

Unearth - The Great Dividers (the solo'ish lead)

 

[Zepp88]

Circular Logic by DEATHMASK

Dude, this is Mike from Tetryl.

I didn't know you guys played sevens.

 

[Naren]

The first riff in "Hybrid Cult" by Scar Symmetry is one of the best I've heard.

But this song is also up there:

Really, anything by Scar Symmetry would be on the top of my list.

 

[Zepp88]

Oh, and, for good measure.


"What The Fuck Happened?" by Tetryl

 

[Korbain]

Intro to here to stay by korn, and also the ending of somebody someone by korn aswell. Definatly my favourite. Also alot of fear factory riffage gets me going

 

[musicboyy]

I love the verse riff to Nevermore's TGE...

 

[Randy]

Bland Street Bloom... that opening riff is just fucking explosive.

EDIT: Although it's not TECHNICALLY 7 string, it IS in Drop C or something like that... so it's pretty fuggin' close.

 

[Nick]

indeed it is

 

[lucasreis]

Hmmmm...

Dream Theater´s Lie comes to mind because that would be the first seven-string song I´ve ever payed attention to (or heard) in my life. Awesome!

A Change of Seasons has some sweet riffs too.

Korn´s Blind is also a classic to me... and screw those who hate them. You don´t have to be a shredder to make good riffs.

Fear Factory´s Obsolete is also a fuckin masterpiece!

And whoever said "Enemies of Reality" from Nevermore is also right, too bad when the vocalist starts singin he ruins the song. I like Nevermore´s guitar work but I don´t really like their singin´ style.

I forgot to mention.

Naren mentioned Scar Symmetry, I second that.

They´re like my favorite metal band now...

I really love that meshuggah-esque parte in the middle of The Illusionist, it fuckin owns.

drop Ab actually. it is heavy as all hell.

 

[Metal Ken]

Has anyone in this thread mentioned GOD OF EMPTINESS?

\m/

I think some noob named Ken mentioned that song. But, you do know that no one listens to him anyway (as evidenced in this thread).

Maybe you should give him the low-down.

 

[progmetaldan]

Yeah, I really love the intro to 'A Change Of Seasons' by Dream Theater

 

[Redman 2007]

Sepultura - Dead Embryonic Cells

 

[lordofthesewers]

Sepultura - Dead Embryonic Cells

that is on a six string my friend, but good pick nontheless

 

[angryman]

The breakdowns in Vicer Exciser by Whitechapel are immense, and the second riff in The Somatic Defilement (same band)...if you ever see that live, watch out!

Awesome band!

 

[Summers45]

The really simple part in the 2nd section of the The Glass Prison.. The C/B part. That riff is so badass.

 

[Apex1rg7x]

Im glad Korn's getting some love on here finally A whole shit ton of Korn riffs as well as Fear Factory and Meshuggah get me pumped.
