Texas King Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Lifeson has many good ones, but my pick would be either 2112: Overture or Necromancer: Under the Shadow. Your choice? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IbanezJem Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 I wouldn't argue with your choices, especially Necromancer. I like simple, punchy riffs so would nominate Circumstances and Freewill. Witch Hunt ("they say there are strangers, who threaten us") too. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treeduck Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 I agree with those but also Circumstances is a great riff. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

treeduck Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Cinderella Man is a great riff, A Farewell To Kings, also Beneath, Between and Behind, A Passage To Bangkok, Limelight and Bastille Day. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueschica Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Cinderella Man is a great riff, A Farewell To Kings, also Beneath, Between and Behind, A Passage To Bangkok, Limelight and Bastille Day. :goodone: I agree! I thought of Bastille Day, AFTK, and Limelight right away. Headlong Flight as well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maverick Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 The main riff from Bangkok is also great. And the riff during the solo is equally good. I love playing this song with a sweet Flanger sound like on ESL. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
