@Ivan4131994 The first three albums are regarded as the classics but the later albums Metal (2007) and Annihilator (2010) are also pretty good. Alice In Hell is regarded as the best and I'll eventually do this vid again with more Riffs from that album.
@Ivan4131994 Alice in Hell, Never Neverland, Set The World on Fire are awesome. But yeah, as ThrashMetalRiffs said: later albums Metal (2007) and Annihilator (2010) are awesome too. You should really check them out.. :)
@Zarnity i just checked them out and they were very good, it just makes me realize how there are so many great bands out there that aren't getting enough attention
@guitarismysword1 I pick a great Riff and I edit the sequence to make it more listenable to thrash punters. If I just included a single Riff the videos would become extremely dull. I think making the vids entertaining and listenable, and also being able introduce the bands are more important for me. The countdowns are just a bit of fun! And who says there have to be rules anyway :-) Enjoy the vids!
what! no riffs from alice in hell?! no word salad? no Alison hell? no wicked mystic?? W>T>Y>D?!?!?!? sorry for my spaz great video i just alice in helll thats why i kinda lost my fucking mind lol
@headbanner666 Actually if you watch the Top 20 Thrash Songs vid, you'll find Alice In Hell there. I think it's a great song, but I think these Riffs on the vid are all better. Not necessarily from better songs though!
@ThrashMetalRiffs He is talking about the songs from alce in hell album not the song alice in hell. After listening this vid i really think that you dont know annihilator very well. I can find 40 riffs from alice in hell and never neverland albums which are better than these. Actually it is hard to sort annihilator riffs since jeff wrote lots of fantastic in annihilator albums. If i made such a list it would be totally different fron this one.
@25gr150lira It is because I know Annihilator well that these Riffs are on the video. Most people think it's all about the album Alice In Hell but I think they had a great career and have much better Riffs on other albums. Alice in Hell has some awesome songs and is a great (indeed classic) album. But there are far thrashier Riffs on other albums. And I think this list a better representation of their career. I do concede the list would be more complete with a few Riffs from Alice though
@runtodemhills It's always quite an honour when the bands recognise a vid done by a fan. Also proves to the bands are very much in favour of their material being promoted. I've had quite a few posts from band members like on the Nasty Savage and Artillery vids. But what was also good to see was that an Annihilator fan who commented on the vid on Facebook got into Annihilator having heard them for the first time on this very vid. Good that!
Without a doubt in my mind, riff wise, and song wise, Human Insecticide is Annihilator's greatest achievement, SHREDS :) Thrash standard. It's a shame you couldn't put any riffs from Alice In Hell in this video due to copyright :/
Surprise surprise :-)Cool upload again, I like your choice very much! I miss riffs from Waking the Fury -but I know, this album is not very popular because of its guitar-sound (?). I guess that Never Neverland is yout favourite? It's mine too:-) There are too many monster-riffs to get them all in a short-video...another one is (although it's not very fast or special, but ULTRA-COOL!) Pastor of Disaster"J.Waters is one of the greatest players to me - and NO, I DON'T know him in person - sadly :-)
@christimpaler1 As with Alice in Hell along with Stonewall, I don't have a strong argument for not having these Riffs in the vid, apart from saying the Riffs that did make the vid are all Top Class Riffs. And I'm notsure which Riffs I would remove to have them in. I just played Stonewall again and it is a VERY good song indeed and the Chorus Riff is very strong.
@STthrash I've thought about this. Obviously Alice in Hell is a classic. But I see it more as a fantastic song rather than being a Rifferama classic. It would definately be in the 'Top 10 songs' vid. But I must admit I'm doubting myself already as the chorus does have a very strong Riff.
Damn that I am in command riff. If I run into Never never land someday, I have no doubt for buying it..

They did a lot of album.
Of course the early era is the best as for many bands, but Jeff still manage to get a pack of awesome songs in every albums he creates.
Even the songs who may be considered as fillers are never actually bad..
As many different singers participated, the whole career is quite varied while keeping true to some Jeff's typical "signature" stuffs.
Anyway, each one of the 3 first Albums contain a "Top 25 riff" by themselves...
They are so dense, varied and rich.

Good List but there is a lot missing from alice in hell like:
Schizos (1&2)
Ligeia
Human Insecticide
W.T.Y.D
and i think Sonic Homicide ( Powerdrain) is missing too.
The song is called Alison Hell.
