Post Name That Riff!
Hey, I thought it would be fun if the guitar players of HC (Reanimator, NoisyRequiem, Aconcit, etc...) made videos where we played a handful of riffs from songs without saying what they are. Then, we could all guess what the songs were. I started it off with a few well-known songs. I apologize in advance for the speaker distortion. This computer has a built-in mic, and apparently it can't handle a loud-ass guitar haha. I'll try and avoid that next time. Let's go! :music :cool

I feel like I should know the second one, it's really bugging me. -.-
I'm going to wait to make a video until I can drop into the music shop and get my amp working. Which I should be able to do in a few days.

Sleep and Metallica. I know people already got it, but this was way too fun. Didn't recognize the first riff. I would participate but I'm terrible at guitar. This is a really good idea though. Hoping for more.

I'm glad everyone thinks this is a good idea! I'm enthused to keep the thread alive now. I apologize once again for the terrible sound quality in that video. I will make sure to use my camera for future installments. I'll wait til someone posts, though. I want to have a go at guessing. I'm hoping Ivory joins in, too.

Please overlook the childish effects, inept playing and abrupt ending. I just discovered windows movie maker. -.- I wanted to see more from FONE, so I made a video so he could, even though I'd said that I would wait. Sounds so bad without the amp though, ugh!

I'm stumped but it sounds familiar. Nice playing though.

You're correct SV22. No one has any idea on the second?

Wowww, well done Reanimator. You made us look like fools!

I might record something later depending on whether I'm happy with it (I'll probably never be.) I only have an acoustic though.

EDIT: It also won't be in video. Sorry ladies.

Post Re: Name That Riff!
Christ its bugging me so much. I know I've heard the first two but I just can't think of the name. The 2nd has to be a KoRn song of some sort... Ah! Here to Stay?! I knew it would come to me eventually.

I know I've seen the video for the first one but I just can't think of the name but sick playing as usual, maybe someone else will do better than I.

I would have gotten the third one if I visited more often but I can't really recognize the first one. I'll see if I can put together a video to participate even if the quality sucks.

Here's my first contribution. I'm still a beginner so this is an easy riff to play but I should have memorized the strum pattern. Plus I desperately need a metronome, haha. Should be easily recognizable though. Have fun, kids.




Are you eventually going to tell us what the mystery riff is, FONE?
