In Trance and Passion Rules the Game are indeed one of the best riffs. Scorpions have some insane riffs in their Uli era records. Sails of Charon is amazing as well, the riff.

Judas Priest has some nice riffs in Screaming For Vengeance album, like Riding on the Wind, Devil's Child and Screaming For Vengeance.

There are many riffs that are good. So we surely can't mention all the riffs we love here.

But there are definitly many other riffs that are objectively not so good ...I won't list any of those poor material to do not ruin this thread and for our ears' sake
