Painkiller is 1000% not a beginning riff, I think all guitar players can speak on that cause I don’t think anyone sits down and says yep that song is going to be one of the first songs I learn right as they pick up a guitar
Intro riff is pretty simple and it was the one i used to monitor progress. I recorded it once in a while and checked it after some time, was a really cool thing )
When I started playing guitar I wanted to jump right into playing and I didn’t learn “harder” stuff like that till 2-3 months in but I practiced everyday. It can be a lot to comprehend at the early stage so I agree.
Some of these riffs are definitely not for beginners. I would have struggled with some of these when I was starting out. That's not to say that they are good riffs to aspire to for a beginner cos the definitely are. Good choice.
The first riff I ever learned was master of puppets lol. It took me forever and had to do it so so slowly. Its all I wanted to be able to play! Also was the song that made me pick up a guitar!
First one i ever learned was seven nation army but i couldn’t resist and i just made it metal version because it was too easy. First one that gave me challenge was maybe enter sandman
M first song was „Enter Sandman“ :-). Learned it in 2 days and after that I knew how cool powerchords are 😅 by the way I didn’t knew what powerchords were but i used them all the time 😂
@@DjadiBilal97 Now try powerchords, same idea 1-5 with open chords. G D etc :) They are so cool, too :) Bit tricky as it requires muting strings but sounds so cool :)
Downfall definitely not for beginners :D Also, Slayer and Painkiller (Judas Priest) may be relatively simple, but would argue it still takes time for some beginners to nail them (i.e. to do alternate picking accurately and at original tempo)
at first when i saw you put downfall on here i thought you meant the exodus song and I felt really bad xD but i feel like i could pick up the CoB Downfall a little easier xD
A few of these riffs are a bit more challenging, but if you already learned the easier ones you'll be able to practice and understand the more difficult ones too. Keep it up!
The first song I learned to play through entirely was shepherd of fire by avenged sevenfold, unless you don’t count not doing the right solo, me and my teacher improvised a different solo that still fit the tone of the song because even now I’d still consider myself a beginner, so obviously I wasn’t gonna pull off a Synyster Gates solo for my recital, but since shepherd of fire, I learned how to play the middle by Jimmy eats world and my hero by the foo fighters in my school’s rock band program
The most important thing for a beginner here is the techniques. Learn to chug triplets for one song and you now know how to chug triplets. Learn to alternate between chugging a palm muted open E string and playing 5ths on the A string and you are now getting very metal... songs come and go but the techniques remain the same. (and yes that's a butchered reference to Zep)
i started with bass and moved on to guitar as soon as i found out that the bass player for van halen/van hagar didn't get chicks because of his stellar bass skills... (it was his stellar back up vocals), the very first song i learned on bass wasn't an easy one.. it was an introduction into my walking bass line phase that ultimately lead me to my ska jag. the song was "pea" off of one hot minute by R.H.C.P. so i wanted the chicks... all i did was add two chords and learned some basic structure (stereotypical power chord, down tune, one note solos...ect you get the picture.) its easier to start with 2 less strings until you get the hang of the basics.
I'd say they're great songs for beginners to work on so as to develop a solid technique. I've always played by ear when it comes to riffs, but never took the time to see the songs through. Bass on the other hand was a different story, I could play the whole ''RATM, Evil Empire'' album all the way through when I was a kid. Tangent: Also, the very first concert I ever went to, New Years Eve 94'95 @ the Detroit Fairgrounds. They shared a ticket with Helmet. (Front and center when Helmet struck the first chord of 'in the meantime', I had an idea of what to expect but no clue of the intensity. I was a little guy 15 ys. old, almost suffocated in the squash pit until I got the gist. After that I was hooked. As my addiction progressed the concerts I attended got heavier and the pits got harder. I hit rocks bottom when a so called friend of mine pushed me into a 'Cannibal Corpse' pit full of Skinheads at a show called 'The Fat Tour' and I died... Thankfully I was beaten back to life and remain pit free to this day.💀👍
Breaking The Law Was My First Riff!!! Holy Diver Was An Early One As Well Along With Rock You Like A Hurricane!!! First Solo Was Rock You Like A HURRICANE Intro Solo!!! Still Don't Know The Main Solo,But I Still Practice The Intro All The Time!!! I Think The Zoo Is Another Good Beginner Riff As Well!!! Keep Rocking It Out!!!
Some DImeBag bro. Please? I am a 57yo metal head who grew up with half the people you just demonstrated LOL. Awesome shit for a beginner to learn from. Many dynamics to practice and perfect. Thank you bro. Oh Yeah. I was a vocalist and beginner sound tech most of my younger days. Now I am learning guitar, bass and keyboard. Because I aint dead yet. :D Peace love and HEAVY METAL! 🤘
Downfall? A bit surprised at that one, I wouldn’t have said it’s for a beginner. Helps getting the alternate picking motions down? Sure, but not a beginner riff. Oh and a slight correction, halfway through the riff, it changes to 8 on the low E and A instead of 0 7 on the A (I know this since I’ve got a good ear and I’ve seen the live footage)
I think it's a good exercise when you just play the basic pattern over and over, even for beginners (so I skipped the 8 in the low E to not make it more complicated). It's not an easy riff at all, but it's somewhat easy to understand and could help beginners to - well - not be beginners anymore.
@@KevinBalke I understand in terms of an exercise, but it’s just changing it means you’re not playing the actual riff and if anything you say it’ll make beginners… well not beginners anymore, I actually think the real version would defo be a good exercise (that is a tricky one to get down)
@@masonhodgkin7889 Was that of constantly playing it or just a bit over a couple of days? If I keep going at it, I think I could get it down fully. Been playing for same amount of time funnily enough
Sorry man, but i think basic sweeping patterns are easier than Downfall, to try to play it correctly. Especially with alternative with proper string muting and getting tempo to work with. Some of those riffs are good but its not for beginners 100%.
This helped me learn to play in time (with metronome too) playing fast is cool and all but to actually “play” i’d say learning timing is essential even more than just soloing all the time… thanks for this
@@wjrhdujvshss7938 Its actually very easy, it just looks scary what you do is: you play the 4th fret with point finger then press and release the 5th freth with your middle finger. You dont hit the strings everytime you press, you only hit the string once
Guy on youtube trying to be helpful ~ Here's some guitar riffs for beginners People on TH-cam ~ Uh, excuse me! A lot of these are not for beginners! People on TH-cam replying to people on TH-cam ~ I was shredding when I first picked up a guitar at 6 years old and Steve Vai asked me for lessons! Guys, we get it. Shut up and play.
Mate it's so funny the way you put everything in perspective.... I've seen guys go nuts trying to write riffs for metal and making things so complicated... all you're doing is using the guitar as a percussion instrument if you get my drift..... thank you very much..... I'll be passing this stuff around to young kids who love metal.
Awesome, I've been self teaching via youtube for a year or so and was able to most of these. The crazy train intro gets me cause I have short ass fingers and can't nail the pinky spots other than that though, I'd say these probably aren't in any particular order cause some required techniques that are a little more advanced to sound right but over all I had a lot of fun with this list and thanks for the tabs.
Nice song selection! Some of them may require a good bit of work for beginners, but is through work and practice that we get better and build some good foundations
Some nice stuff here. I worked out 80% of Slayer’s Seasons in the abyss intro the other day, so this video has a lot to offer me 🥳👍. Thanks for keeping it clear- just watched another ‘5 beginners riffs’ video, where the first one was real easy and then the guy starts rattling off music theory and not showing the finger positions on the others that steadily got more complex🤨🤔😬
@@rockerpat1085 Oh that's actually quite easy, just turn your guitar around or go to a shop and grab a left-hand one, if you're a righty. Sure, it's not exactly the same but it helps realise how much harder it was to start out than we usually remember.
9/10 of these riffs are not for beginners. I’d say advanced intermediate at minimum. I’ve been. Playing guitar for over 16yrs now and as a experienced guitarist I can say most of these songs/riffs are for beginners especially painkiller. But great video!
Some of these aren’t for beginners but some are great for new guitarists. Especially am I evil which is one of the first songs I learned to play and one of the most fun to play to this day.
Thank you sir for teaching me to play my first power chord riffs .....it's more helpful for the people to learn .....God bless ....greetings from India.....
Just keep crankin my man, I've been writing for a decade and I'm almost done with music school now, still accidentally rewrite Hot Blooded every 4 months or so. It's normal and cool to stumble into riffs and styles that already are a thing, just keep writin and riffin!
It was so cool when i learned 2 songs in 5 minutes because i have 1 year of experience with the guitar, but anyway thanks for these songs, i love things that are so famous yet so easy
It is a fact that in recent years, measured by the TOP 50 hit lists of the largest music markets in the world, no human musicians were involved in more than 80% of the songs / hit recordings. And the computer-generated sound is still on the rise. So let's all support young musicians who make handmade music. Only if we buy their records, DVDs and merch do we enable the young bands and musicians to turn their passion into a profession and also to be able to make a living from it. The ROCK N ROLL is crying out for help folks...🤘🎸🎹🎷🎤🎺🥁🤘.
A majority of these Riffs are absolutely not for beginners. Like children of the Grave, painkiller, black Sabbath, crazy train or for whom the bell tolls. The only real beginner riffs were Breaking the Law and Holy diver
For Breaking the Law It’s interesting when you watch Priest live you see KK Downing grab the a on the low E instead of the open a because his fingers are so long
I could be wrong here as it's been a good number of years since I played guitar, but I am pretty sure they are simplified versions of the actual songs. For example, 2 minutes to midnight is missing the root note on the chords on the A string. If you're a beginner, you'll get there in time, but it's worth noting that things considered 'beginner' can range up to anything you'd expect to run in to up to around grade 3 or 4 difficulty stuff. It can get pretty damn complex in some places so it's never to be mistaken with things you should expect to just pick up and nail first try. But the key is keep practicing and you'll get there dude. Just don't forget to take regular breaks so your brain can actually process the things you're learning!
so this is the approach i took with learning in the beginning. just play the single root note... that is the note that is mostly numbered... for example the song "am i evil", you would be playing the root note... that is the notes that are marked "0", "3", "5" and so on for the rest of the rift.. don't worry about the other number until you get more comfortable with finger placement and then you can introduce other note making it a power chord. OR you can conveniently switch to bass... (way more fun but less chicks in my opinion)
What's a good application for those moving notes with a number following the cords, bars, and pulls. Just got a mini spark amp and would like to pick it up. I just kinda dabble got as far as tapping, not so good at cord yet, but pulls and bar are my stuff. Only downside. I'm tight on money atm
Not gonna lie I’ve been playing for almost 10 years now and I never learned painkiller but it’s definitely not a beginner riff at all . Neither would I consider seek and destroy by Metallica, I grew up with like three days grace and three doors down man and I mean they have easy stuff but throwing painkiller in there was just what da heck lol , but I think enter sandman should have been on here , that was the first Metallica song I ever learned

see at DEATH METAL VS PINK FLOYD
I'm in the MetalCommunity but ngl I love Pink Floyd 💖🌌 🎸 🎶
Wild side is also a good one if anyone is fairly new to guitar
*te la rifaste Fernando.jpg*
Great selection
The last five def seem harder
Makes me wish that I learned guitar instead of drums 😆
Painkiller is 1000% not a beginning riff, I think all guitar players can speak on that cause I don’t think anyone sits down and says yep that song is going to be one of the first songs I learn right as they pick up a guitar
well actually it was one of my first ones. but only that one riff. and i downstroked it cuz it was so much easier
Intro riff is pretty simple and it was the one i used to monitor progress. I recorded it once in a while and checked it after some time, was a really cool thing )
Speak for yourself
When I started playing guitar I wanted to jump right into playing and I didn’t learn “harder” stuff like that till 2-3 months in but I practiced everyday. It can be a lot to comprehend at the early stage so I agree.
Intro riff isn’t too bad but I agree you should pick songs that you can play thru.
Some of these riffs are definitely not for beginners. I would have struggled with some of these when I was starting out. That's not to say that they are good riffs to aspire to for a beginner cos the definitely are. Good choice.
For beginners it's not suppose to be easy riff, that he will play without any trainings..
Most are beginner riffs till you get to Painkiller basically that and everything after is an intermediate riff
Beginner and starters is different. I played guitar for a year and still beginner, and this is beginner riffs as i play lot of these kind of riff
Lol these are all beginners. My first day of playing guitar I could play Tornado of Souls, all the way through, and also nail the solo
Eric the Red that's nothing. At the end of my first day I could play Steve Vai's entire discography
The first riff I ever learned was master of puppets lol. It took me forever and had to do it so so slowly. Its all I wanted to be able to play! Also was the song that made me pick up a guitar!
First one i ever learned was seven nation army but i couldn’t resist and i just made it metal version because it was too easy. First one that gave me challenge was maybe enter sandman
Tell me about it.. I too took Master of Puppets as my first song and it was probably the most wrong choice among Metallica songs :)
@@stormdami fr but then again it was a good song to learn how to play fast
M first song was „Enter Sandman“ :-).
Learned it in 2 days and after that I knew how cool powerchords are 😅 by the way I didn’t knew what powerchords were but i used them all the time 😂

As a beginner south of heaven took me ALL DAY to learn. Still relatively simple, Just beginners struggle with memory.
Which slayer songs are you talking about.
I’ve been playing guitar for over 20 years, and my first riff/song I learned was Breaking the Law 🥰
me too 🙂
Been playing for abt a year now, first metal riff was breaking the law
What did the song do
But its easy
mine was seven nation army 💀😂
I like how they builded up into more complex riffs towards the end
A few of these riffs are a bit more challenging, but if you already learned the easier ones you'll be able to practice and understand the more difficult ones too. Keep it up!

Smoke on the water riff is also good for beginners. Very good video! Enjoyed it!
Smoke On The Water is Hard Rock, not Heavy Metal.
@@marciorailander859 so you say “whole lotta of love” is heavy metal as well then?
Smoke on the water is literally the first riff any guitarist learns
@@ansuna974 you’ve got it!!! That’s what I meant…
Exaactly that’s what we could call a beginner riff
I was looking for licks but I cant stop now! anyway Good Practice. Get my chops back.
World In A World by Vio-lence. There's a few ez riffs I can't quite remember.
Good practice! There’s only like 5 I can play but if I sit down and learn them all, I got myself a set list!

Mercyful fate has a lot of cool riffs
Oh yeah
Lol when the title says RIFFS but everyone acting like u gotta learn the whole song
You're CRAAAZZZZYY!!!!! Wanna see you play Painkiller as a beginer. Even the riff is hard.
Kinda Hard To Go Back To Being A Beginner!!! But I Agree Not A Beginner Song!!! Breaking The Law Is And Was My First Riff!!!
Keep Rocking!!!

Oh that's actually quite easy, just turn your guitar around or go to a shop and grab a left-hand one, if you're a righty.

These are so fun
9/10 of these riffs are not for beginners. I’d say advanced intermediate at minimum. I’ve been. Playing guitar for over 16yrs now and as a experienced guitarist I can say most of these songs/riffs are for beginners especially painkiller. But great video!
You said 9/10 of the songs are advanced intermediate ar minimum and then said most of them are for beginners. Which one is it? Lol
I screwed up in the comment lol. What I meant was 9/10 of the songs were at least intermediate not beginner.
This is seriously cool. There are several things I’ve wanted to learn here!
Some of these aren’t for beginners but some are great for new guitarists. Especially am I evil which is one of the first songs I learned to play and one of the most fun to play to this day.
Awesome video man. This gives me some good sounding stuff to learn/practice. Maybe do follow up video or maybe a punk rock one?
Yngwie Malmsteen suite op 5 is another great one for beginners.
That can be bit tricky. I would start with something more simple like through the fire and flames by dragonforce
Straight to the topic. Nice
Thanks for the tabs
From Rammstein i would recommend you guys try playing "Alter Mann", the tuning is Drop D
Thank you sir for teaching me to play my first power chord riffs .....it's more helpful for the people to learn .....God bless ....greetings from India.....
Great selection, had a lot of fun playing along :)
A great learning video so thank you for sharing 👍 something for everyone here.
Great work! Great choices! Much appreciated!

Not a bad collection.
Not that complicated technique-wise, but great to train timing and stopping with triplets etc.
Danzig Twist of Cain was the first thing I learned, super easy if u dont do the pinch harmonics
Can't wait to play all of this riffs in my local music store
Most of Rammstein's riffs are easy, but they still sound badass
Cool, great 6 minute warm up!
Dude! Well done!
Pretty cool list actually,Cheers brother 🤘
Thanks for sharing, this is awesome.

This sounds a lot like Krakatu, by Yngwie? It is very cool though.
Thank you, very cool and informative
Love this Kev thank you
Freezing moon and most mayhem songs are the reason I’m learning drums and guitar.
OK! Nice with Children of Bodom at the end!
For Breaking the Law It’s interesting when you watch Priest live you see KK Downing grab the a on the low E instead of the open a because his fingers are so long
That bullet for my valentine riff was super easy. Barely an inconvenience.
Great riffs, but not really for beginners. However with practice, patience and persistence. Anything can be learned 🤗
I agree with the list but in my opinion that Painkiller riff is quite challenging to play at full speed
5 stars great covers n tabs..xxx from ireland
ah yes my favourite metal song whole lotta love
Kkool theres some i didnt know and a few id forgoten i knew 🤘🤘

Dude your good! If these are beginner riffs I'm screwed 😂
I could be wrong here as it's been a good number of years since I played guitar, but I am pretty sure they are simplified versions of the actual songs. For example, 2 minutes to midnight is missing the root note on the chords on the A string.
If you're a beginner, you'll get there in time, but it's worth noting that things considered 'beginner' can range up to anything you'd expect to run in to up to around grade 3 or 4 difficulty stuff. It can get pretty damn complex in some places so it's never to be mistaken with things you should expect to just pick up and nail first try.
But the key is keep practicing and you'll get there dude. Just don't forget to take regular breaks so your brain can actually process the things you're learning!
so this is the approach i took with learning in the beginning. just play the single root note... that is the note that is mostly numbered... for example the song "am i evil", you would be playing the root note... that is the notes that are marked "0", "3", "5" and so on for the rest of the rift.. don't worry about the other number until you get more comfortable with finger placement and then you can introduce other note making it a power chord. OR you can conveniently switch to bass... (way more fun but less chicks in my opinion)
Lol Raining Blood was one for the first metal songs I learnt, like 14 years ago 🤟
Rammstein is such a simple but boss riff!
That's great mate, thanks for sharing, please keep doing it
What's a good application for those moving notes with a number following the cords, bars, and pulls. Just got a mini spark amp and would like to pick it up. I just kinda dabble got as far as tapping, not so good at cord yet, but pulls and bar are my stuff. Only downside. I'm tight on money atm
Absolutely awesome 👍👍💙💙
Not gonna lie I’ve been playing for almost 10 years now and I never learned painkiller but it’s definitely not a beginner riff at all . Neither would I consider seek and destroy by Metallica, I grew up with like three days grace and three doors down man and I mean they have easy stuff but throwing painkiller in there was just what da heck lol , but I think enter sandman should have been on here , that was the first Metallica song I ever learned
They all sound good, I am just wondering what you use for backing tracks? A drum machine or some variant of one?
