gunsNbones Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 I know it's hard to describe the agressive bluesy, rock, metal, punk music of guns with some riffs but we could try.By riff, I mean a repetitive pattern.I picked one of each main periodnightrain introcoma introbetter verse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Towelie Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 The Jungle riff pretty much IS Guns N Roses imo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoulMonster Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 All good choices, I would also add Sweet Child O' Mine (intro) and Rocket Queen (rhythm riff). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patience 4 Axl Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 SCOMBrownstoneWTJThe ultimate Guns riffs for me. I hear the opening for any of those songs and I'm in a happy place for the next few minutes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rovim Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Paradise City. And not just one riff from it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amish Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 You realize that pretty much ALL Guns songs are entirely unique and their riffs are recognizable immediately? However, you can probably play Sweet Child, Paradise City, and Welcome to the Jungle in any crowd and nearly 100 percent of the crowd will recognize them.

RandallFlagg Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 The question has to be one riff or name your favourite riffs, can't really represent so many variables in 3 songs, 3 fave riffs =Paradise City aka lynyrd skynyrd meets Sabbath's Zero The HeroLocomotiveMy Michelle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandallFlagg Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Five best riffs on Chinese Democracy apart from the title track?The immigrant song/hey bulldog like Riad is pretty cool.IRS never really develops riffwiseShacklers is like snakes and ladders with little ditties here and there but nothing proper.Better breakdown is whack.ITW is more plucking away than proper riffage.TWAT has a cool BOM-BA-DA-DOM section.CITR isn't really riffage.Prostitute is more chord backing but there's some nice stuff buried.Scraped DAH-DAH-DAH-DAH-DAH-DUU is nice.
