Let's do some HEAVIEST RIFFS

Put some of your own contenders down below too. Image
First up: the intro / verse riff from Mastodon's Crusher Destroyer.

Their first album is often overlooked but its excellent.

Next up: basically all of "Toxic Garbage Island" by Gojira.

Third, an absolute classic by Slipknot: Psychosocial. You know it, you love it.

Jinjer - I speak Astronomy
Verse riff is killer here, so is Jinjer in general

Periphery - Make Total Destroy

A lot of great riffs from this band, they were of course going to be on the list.

Korn - Here to Stay.

Untouchables by Korn is a good album & you should listen to it. No apologies for this one.

I already posted "When Girl's Telephone Boys" by Deftones, so I'm going to go with "Rocket Skates" for this list. Intro riff.

Heavy band, great band.

I'll cap off this batch with a GOAT riff

HEAVIEST RIFFS No.2

Thanks for all your suggestions in the first thread, feel free to add more below. Image
Goliath, Karnivool.

Whilst this is technically made as heavy as it is by a bass riff, it's a great example of using the component parts of your band correctly for a great sound.

Good stuff

Conspicuous by its absence from the first list, it's a testament to Mick Gordon that when people think of "Heavy Riff" this immediately pops to mind.

A modern classic with great electronic elements.

These Low Traffic Neighbourhoods have been harming & killing people since they were stealthily introduced in 2020 during the lockdowns.

Their use, and the use of other traffic slowing "green measures" has been strongly protested by UK emergency services from the start. ImageImage
Below are excerpts from a meeting with Southwark Council

"Emergency Services – Southwark Experimental Transport Measures
16/07/2020"

The full minutes are a download only PDF but I will give you some extraordinary quotes below: Image
London Ambulance Service:

Planters are not showing up on Satnavs.
The measures are creating delays responding to calls. Width restrictions are also a problem. Ambulances more likely to have to use neighbouring road. Image

I'm curious as to how my followers & wider circle view certain issues.

Below this post I'm going to post eight simple questions via polls.

Please RT this opening Tweet if you do vote to increase sample size.

First question: does average intelligence very by racial group?
Question 2:

Do you believe politicians who support transgender / LGBT issues do so sincerely or cynically?
Question 3: do you agree with this statement?

"Democracy is the best system of government we have yet devised."

Making people say this is tactically important as its obviously counter to reality.

Pressing established figures on this matter & recording their contortions, denial or mockery will be important.

Plays very well on a "man in the pub" level.
The play is very simple:

Ask them if ethnic minority groups exist.

Ask them if native peoples in America exist.

Then ask them if they believe in the rights of native peoples.

Ask them if there are ethnicities native to Britain

If they deny it, hammer them for obvious lies.
If they don't deny it, ask them why the native peoples of Britain do not have a right to their own land.

Extremely simple through line using all establishment talking points to get you there.

"The Science" on native UK genetics is also very strong.

The police are doing this to justify new policing power, they already have the authority to stop these in an instant.

This is a manipulation tactic to make you beg for new protest laws that will only be used against non regime approved targets.
Both the "Policing Bill" and the "Public Order Bill" are predicted on being needed to tackle these "Just Stop Oil" protests.

Anyone who saw the response to lockdown protests knows the police already shut down protests instantly they do not approve of. ImageImageImageImage
Just Stop Oil gets millions of pounds of funding from billionaire backed U.S. NGO "Climate Action Fund"

This funding is EXPRESSLY for "disruptive action" & could be frozen by UK authorities.

This is not a "far right conspiracy," here is The Guardian reporting on it: ImageImage

The "New Labour, New Britain" document is a tangled web of constitutional proposals and deliberately obfuscated transitions of power this is difficult to unpick.

You can see the full video on our YouTube but I'll explain a little in this thread:

As far as we can fathom (The actual document does not make the structure clear) THIS absolute mess is what the elected bodies will look like under the "New Britain" proposals.

An absolute mess that obscures where power is held & how it operates. Image
Labour is proposing a "Constitutionally protected set of rights" such as a "right to healthcare," but all of these devolved assembles is proposes to create will not have control over ANY area relating to these new "rights" as they are seen as reflecting "widely held opinion." Image
