We all know this is an impossible list to make because this should be a top 1000 list! There are so many amazing songs and riffs out there!!! I sat around for several days adding and removing songs to the list. Then I just decided that I would make a bunch of these videos instead. So this is PART 1. Not many old-school bands are included (like Cathedral, Pentagram, Candlemass, St Vitus) because I will make a separate video about them.

Black Sabbath is not included because they would take up 10 of the top 15 songs! You cant just choose 1 Sabbath Song. They will have their own top list because they are the greatest. Check out my BLACK SABBATH top 25 riffs video here th-cam.com/video/0QrJL9lMC5U/w-d-xo.html
yup, totally agree
Damn right!
I think if you had to pick the most doom (classic) sabbath song, I think into the void is about as solid a choice as one can make.
This is absolutely correct
For sure. Into the Void if I had to pick one
great choices, Funeralopolis is THE quintessential doom riff for me and if you asked me to play a doom riff it's the one that would come to mind for sure
it's weird that I couldn't see your face, but knew exactly what grimace you were making: 😡😡😡
😂😂😂
Stank face .. like the face your girl makes when you give her the Dirty Sanchez
Gardenia by Kyuss is one of my favourites. Thanks for putting it in the video🤘
Kyuss rule 🏜
I agree 👍
At the start it sounds like Sabbath Bloody Sabbath.
Absolutely
Acid bath 🔥 wouldn’t be my first pick but awesome riff
I think you MIGHT be a lil biased lmao
If i have the time i might make and Acid Bath top 10 riffs video. They deserve it. 🤡
@@DoomTones
it would be great
Acid Bath is always a first pick
The Blue is my absolute favorite by them, I’m off to listen to it again for the thousandth time 🥸🤘🏾
This list turned me onto Bongripper. That riff is trance inducing 🤘
I'm constantly humming the 10,000 years riff when i'm not constantly playing it on guitar.
This shit is not healthy.
Thanks a lot
🤘
I’m a beginner. Is that a tough riff to play?
@@dickvalentinesillegitimate1059 not at all. You just need to practice enough to where your hand gets secure enough to allow you to play it solid from beginning to end, because of the constant movement. It’s all power chords
glad crowbar got on this list
🤘💀 Very unique riff in Planets Collide.
Killer riffs all the way. I’m good with any list that starts with 10,000 Years. I’m interested to see what almost made the cut, or like you said in the description a “classic” list, etc. Great job!
Thanks! I wanted to include Conan, Bongzilla, Om, Elder, Pallbearer, Yob e.t.c. but this video was taking forever to make, so i decided to split the content into several videos.
Definitely! I mean it's all a matter of opinion as to what an actual list like top 15 should/would be but yeah, soon as dude reminded me of and started right off the bat with that High On Fire riff I was like F**K YEAAAH!!! Bc I always thought that was Pike's sickest riff of either band, Sleep OR HOF.
@@ryanhale1654 yeah, another dope doomy HoF that i love is Madness of an architect
@@DoomTones Bro have you ever listened to "Raw Curtains" by Goatsnake? Im not even really a big fan of them in particular but that one song, I think it was originally released on some split e.p. or something, just blew my mind!! It's not really anything like their usual stuff.
This made my day. So good. I prefer black metal but doom and sludge are awesome too🖤
thanks! im a big black metal fan as well.🤘
Killer tone and even more killer selection of songs. Good work man
Thanks a lot!
Love the tone!
Killer clip. 😎🤘🏻🎸 it’s awesome to hear these tunes in a drop B tuning. I’ve always like that tuning.
Really great sound! Good job!
Cheers🔥
Thanks a lot! 🤘
Top quality picks, well played and some killer guitar tones too. 🤘
love em all, but glad Melvins were there. legends.
I saw them live many, many years ago, i think when they were touring the "a senile animal" album. They had 2 drummers live playing 2 different kits!!! It was the most badass thing i had ever seen.🤘I think that gig influenced my future musical tastes greatly.
@@DoomTones oh man! ... That was my favorite Melvins lineup ... I saw them open for tool in 2001. I was aware of them, but they definitely left a strong impression. Now they're Gods...
@@DoomTones That must have been the Melvins + Big Business days those were heavy heavy years for.
@@DoomTones Melvins tour a lot, I've seen them so many times in Chicago

Tuff stuff , awsome bro !
Appreciate that!
@@DoomTones th-cam.com/video/SCyEUhlwv-U/w-d-xo.html
Don’t listen to Doom Metal much, so I’m surprised this was in my recommended buttt… this is good! Nice work :)
Thanks!
You should start
Was slightly surprised to see Through Silver In Blood on here, I love that track. Your tone is awesome man, played really well, would've liked to see some Windhand though 😉
lol, i know. that song is not really doom metal. but i love Neurosis so much that i had to include them anyway.
For me this is more a great top sludge/doom riff. Btw great vid and guitar sound. Greetings.
ayyy always good to see some good ass doom riffs content on this god forsaken website
keep it groovin' lord, keep it groovin'.
thanks! will do!🤘
Great guitar sound 👍🎸
thanks
Awesome list. I got to know some new bands. I miss Trouble or the Skull ;)
I see my favs like Acid Bath, Crowbar and the Melvins. I have to stop sleeping on these other bands. Is it just me or have you ever noticed that History of Bad Men and Night Goat are a variation of the same riff. Filth Pig by Ministry is the same riff also.. I love it.
Bro your guitar tone is on point, nice work!
Appreciate it!
@@DoomTones - May I ask what guitar you are playing? I tried enlarging the video and examining the headstock, but I can’t quite recognize it. I like your oddly square-yet-wavy pickguard in particular, and that’s a lovely shade of blue. It reminds me of Italian art deco, and of mass-produced Italian guitars of the 1960s, which were sold through catalogs at the time but are now highly coveted collectors items. Is it maybe an Eastwood clone of a vintage Eko or something? Many thanks for the upload, whether or not you’re able to reply!
You are absolutely right about the design. Its an Italia Maranello Classic MK1, it was inspired by an early 60’s Hagström model@@danopticon
@@DoomTones - Thank you so much! It’s a work of art for sure. 🤘❤️🎸
i got tired of the blue sparkle, so i stripped the paint and stained the wood underneath. this is what it looks like now. th-cam.com/video/xNoPsxQw4ys/w-d-xo.html @@danopticon
As soon as I hear goatsnake I know this channels legit 🤘
This is one fantastic list, Acid Bath, Goatsnake and Orange FUCKING Goblin Baby!
💀🔊🤘
dude, thats killer
thanks!
Is that a Paso Inferior shirt? Kick ass. Killer riff choices
yep, one of my favourite albums of all time.
Dope! I'd recommend checking out Candlemass if you haven't. Less sludge, but more epic sounding.
Check the video description, i wrote that Candlemass, St Vitus and Pentagram will get their own video.🤘
@@DoomTones oh hell yeah
Genial 🍷
Thanks!
Wow. Didn't even know i love doom metal until i found this video.
Nice list. Doom on.🔥🖤💀🤘🏽
Will do! 🔊
nice shirt!
thanks dude.
Supreme taste
fuckin awesome! Good list!
No My Dying Bride? Waiting for part two then.
This dude is just a genius of video montage for cropping the upper half of the picture without even centering it xD
I was waiting for a Doom song, like BFG Division, The only thing they fear is you etc, lol.
😂
hm ya man! 🤟 Thanks
I'm new to this channel but I love it. Doom metal in every form is the best form of metal ever. If you don't have a video about it, can you do a rig run down.
I almost always use the orange cr120, if not i just run dirt pedals into the audio interface. Every video usually has the signal chain explained, in the descrition.
@@DoomTones sweet bruh, thanks for the info. Badass videos by the way.
Dudes legit. Knows acid bath. Wraps it for me.
Agreed!
Fuck yeah, God Luck and Good Speed is awesome 🤘
Why no Dopethrone tho?
dopethrone band? or riff?
I'd include Dark foil. That riff is 👌
Everyday I give prays to Lord Iommi!
Heavy!
Pallbearer got some killer riffs
yeah, i wanted to include "forgotten days" but its gonna be in another video. 🤘
Crowbar! 🤘🏻
always!
That guitar look better like that sick sound bro❤
Monolord 🤘🤘
I remember how I first listened to Funeralopolis.... doom ftw
We need some top Doom-death/ funeral Doom riffs
Dat paradise lost
Good idea, its on the to do list.🤘
🐐🐍 🤘🏽
💀🤘
What are you using as a virtual rig man thats killer!? Im plating death metal but im also into doom and i dont know any good plugins or virtual stuff for fuzz stuff. What is your recommandations !? Cheer’s from Montreal brother 🤘🏻
Thanks! The fuzz is the Audiority Heavy Pedal (best fuzz plugin i have found so far), Impulse response: Ownhammer Heavy Hitters 2. And LOTS of eq and multiband compression, e.t.c
Greatest stoner riff is “into the void” by Black Sabbath
Agree. Thats why its the first riff in my Black Sabbath top 25 riffs video, there are too many great Sabbath riffs to chose just one: th-cam.com/video/0QrJL9lMC5U/w-d-xo.html
🤘💀🤘
🔊💀🔊
Love You!!! Love You!!! Vodka!!
I realized you were playing the guitar backwards after three minutes lol
No Black Sabbath no Candlemass, no Pagan Altar?
i wrote in the comments that st vitus, candlemass and a bunch of old school bands deserver their own video. Including Black Sabbath is impossible because then 10 of the to 15 riffs would be theirs :) i will make a separate sabbath video because they are the greatest.
@@DoomTones Alright!
I guess anything from Soundgarden was just too clean and cheery ;)
soundgarden are dope, but i think people would get very angry if i posted them in a top 15 doom metal list. haha.
that guitar is so fucking sick
right away #1 im like "fucking definitely".
I needed to start strong so the obvious choice was high on fire!
Dope guitar tone what are you using I’m new to doom guitar tones. What is your go to?
I'm sad you left out Church of Misery... they have some killer riffage!
i love them! their song opened my previous video "top 15 clean doom metal riffs" Also, check out my cover of their song "el padrino" th-cam.com/video/GNufDEJXEFk/w-d-xo.html
Monolord owns
do not forgot adrift in the ocean, by yob 🤟. and empress rising by monolord
i really want to do a yob top 10 riffs video, but there are almost no tabs online. And its very hard to pick out what Mike is playing...
I enjoy doom riffs
Acid Bath!!!!!!! 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
SLEEP
Wow a fellow left handed Italia guitar player! One who turns them upside down and restrings them too.
I have a Rimini and Speedster.
Good choice of riffs sir but no Black Stone Wielder by Candlemass?
haha cool, lefty AND you play italia, thats a rare coincidence! speedsters look really good. This guitar is by far the best sounding guitar i have, the wilkinson humbuckers are amazing! i got this one from a friend like 15 years ago. It spent 10 years in storage, until i restorded it, and it proceeded to blow my mind!!!!🤘 p.s. im making a separate old shool doom bands video. candlemass will be on there for sure!
That’s my favorite from Candlemass!
Thanks, I need a shower, that was filthy.
Great tone man! What pups do you use? Signal chain? Thanks!
stock Wilkinson WVC pickups that come with the italia guitar. guitar straight into audio interface, audiority heavy pedal, ownhammer impulse response (heavy hitters 2) lots of EQ
Thank the Gods for Doom Metal.
Imagine how boring things would be
If Metal was always 100% fast…
I Love bands like “Shape of Despair”
And stuff like that.
heavy lord should have been on this list, i think theyre slept on
1000 year internal war by crowbar, and we hate you by electric wizard
no doom without saint vitus
agree, in the comments, i wrote that st vitus, candlemass, pentagram, cathedral will get their own video.🤘
A really good list of riffs. The only one I would add to this is 4th of July by Soundgarden.
it's an amazing song, but i think most people would classify soundgarden as grunge. although i totally see that that song specifically is doom. 🤘
Why do you almost exclusively down pick? No shade, just wondering if you know something I don't :) Great vid, I subbed!
dunno, i have always played like that.🤘
Hell yeah! Electric Wizard!
💀🔊
Listening to them rn
the wire so close to string ! ahh.
love the tone! , the riffs they all remind me black label society xD
Thanks! yeah, haha this is a right-handed guitar played upside down, so the cable is sometimes in the way of the strings.🤘
Man this tone. What does your pedalboard look like?
What is your signal chain? Sounds awesome!
Thanks! Guitar into audio interface, Audiority Heavy Pedal, Ownhammer Impulse response, a LOT of eq, compression, etc.
Good stuff man,
Doom,Stoner Metal's great of course.
But an hour of it,then a bit of Thrash,Speed,Heavy ect,,lol
Too much of it definitely sound like the exact same song frankensteined in other songs,,
I like to play in in Thrash rhythm styles also.
Blending different genres into one.
Awesome sound. What's your fuzz.
heavy pedal audiority plugin
hi ! what is you setup on this video ? amp and pedals ? rat + pharaoh as usual in your vids ? thanks ! Awesome channel ;)
dude, this was so long ago, dont remember what i used
@@DoomTones ok no problem. thanks ;)
