As much as I would love to and could I'm not going to judge your choices because we have different tastes. These are the riffs you like best so great job on the list man.
In the description you put that adrian is not present.. He's in the band, i know he left but he's back. You also forgot Janick! He is known for his Great Melodic riffs!
The #1 riff of iron maiden and of any band ever, no contest (and I am not even a big iron maiden fan. The riff just kicks fucking ass) is, without a doubt the one in the trooper and that fact that this is not on here is heresy! You shall burn forever for this sin.
The violin string quartet version of the trooper is so kick ass. God, how is that not on here as #1, or even on the list at all?
i was going to bitch about hallowed be thy name not being on here but thank god you found some sense. i would also put the riff of the first verse in paschendale in there. the trooper's opening riff is great too.
I love the riff in Rainmaker it is one of my all time favorite riffs ever by Iron Maiden. I was hoping it would be in this list. This is a sweet list i agree with almost every one of them
thats a pretty nice list you got there, except neither moonchild nor SSOASS should be so high on the list. Also, the riff from Fear of the Dark is awesome (the heavy one, not the intro riff), and Be Quick or Be Dead has a badass riff as well. I also think Futureal and/or Sign of the Cross could've made that list. Hell, both Flash of the Blade and Poweslave have better riffs that Ghost of the Navigator. Just constructive criticism though, the list is still pretty accurate.
