No matter how many years go by i never get tired of the main riff from 'Sirens' by Coroner. It's insanely catchy.

I could never pick a favorite, but I know this one is up there.
Too bad it's only about 22 seconds worth of bad-ass riffage.

The beginning reminds me of SOD.

maybe 'Riding the Storm' (Running Wild) after the mid-paced intro section...... 'The Sentinel' (Judas Priest)... 'Holy Thunderforce' (Rhapsody).....'I'm The Hateful Raven' (The Chasm) when it starts to first slow down and starts in the right speaker...lots more I could think of probably..

Another one of my favorite riffs is actually a drum riff. In Silent Force's "Walk The Earth"; in the middle, right after the slowed down, ethereal vocal and before the wailing guitar solo.

Van Halen's cover of 'You Really Got Me'. And pretty much anything else Edward has come up with over the last 30 years.

There are so many but the first one that comes to mind are "Take Control" by Raven or "Punk and Belligerent" by Warrior Soul. Both of those songs have opening riffs that just make me wanna punch something (I mean that in a good way).

I don't know...I think "Another Thing Coming" by Judas Priest has the edge in this category...
