You got great taste in music, my friend. Post H, noise, alternative, grunge, Shoegaze, etc. I'm 35 so all this shit is dear to my heart. Even pulled some Shellac out your ass just to make my day even better. Glad we still got some of us around, we're becoming the Old Heads
@@Griseus_ASMR_2 spiderland is my favourite album of all time!! i wouldn’t say they’re my favourite band (they just don’t have enough music) but they’re definitely up there
Great Pumpkins pick, great Soundgarden pick, great AIC pick, great NIN pick. Fckn Jesus Lizard, fckn Fugazi, fckn Slint all mentioned. Perfect for me, would add a Unwound riff tho lmao
Dragonaut by Sleep, so many riffs from Modest Mouse - criminally underrated band in general(the opening riff of Teeth Like God's Shoeshine, all of Doin the Cockroach, the seagull guitars of Make Everyone Happy/Mechanical Birds), Virginia Reel Around the Mountain by the Halo Benders has wonderful licks in it. Appreciate the Shellac inclusion, another criminally underrated band.
@eastvillageguitarmethoddd apparently Albini had two custom made and gave the other one to Lee Ronaldo. There’s a cool Show Us Your Junk video on here where Ronaldo talks about it
You got yourself a new Patreon subscriber! I’d love to see a video on post-punk riffs (The Comsat Angels, Joy Division, The Chameleons, The Raincoats, etc.)
Soooo good ❤ i think i was the only one in knowing and like "The Jesus Lizard", it was a surprise to find them in this list together with some fantastic bands/albums: Pavement, Smashing, Pixies and my admired Sonic Youth. Me encanta! 🫶
@@eastvillageguitarmethoddd Let Down is a great example Only reason I say this is because my 3 piece band wanted to cover it but once I looked up the tab we decided it would be impossible
Some failure, old school flaming lips and deftones would’ve been nice too! Also maybe some I Mother Earth. They had some many killer riffs like “like a girl”. If you’re looking for some fun and challenging 90’s rock you should give them a go. Loved your picks.
@@eastvillageguitarmethoddd never broke out of Canada. After their second record their lead singer went solo and that ended their rise. First two albums are great. My favourite is scenery and fish. They made a couple albums after with a new singer and they’re good too. A little more accessible. But jag tanna is an incredible guitarist. Worth your time.
Great! And with J Mascis guitar! Could you please tell me your thoughts about it? I looking for a guitar on a budget and this is one of the possibilities.. Thank you!
The bridge pickup can be a little shrill/thin sounding at high gain. But if you dial in the distortion correctly you can compensate. I even have a couple Iron Maiden videos with this guitar, the palm muting can sound great in certain contexts
@@eastvillageguitarmethoddd Thanks for answering ^^ When it comes to buy on a budget it's like too decisive which guitar you choose. Thanks a lot again!
It’s easily one of the best $600 guitars I’ve ever played. Especially considering the current state of the guitar market (ie: 600 isn’t gonna get you much of anything nowadays)
@@eastvillageguitarmethoddd Yea ik like alot of lists just have the biggest names and their biggest hits but theres so much variety with list which is why its so good.
I'm enjoying them a lot! Just curious on how well the JMJM would do a full step down, do you think it can get a BMTH tone or the CuNiFe wide range would be the best take? Anyways, thanks for sharing your content, keep on rocking, cheers from Brazil!
Cheers! The Mascis jazzmaster handles heavy tones really well, but the palm mutes can be a little thin when you’re using a lot of overdrive. But it’s overall one of the most diverse guitars I’ve ever used
I know, I know, this is your list, and an excellent one, too. But it needs some Built to Spill, c'mon. Or maybe some Treepeople? Now that would be a treat! Cheers my dude.
The underlying drum rhythm is in 4/4, so I decided to notate the guitar that way. I ended on a measure of 5/4 so that the riff would cut off at a natural place
@@eastvillageguitarmethoddd How the drums highlight the guitar. Ive learned from watching guitar riff vids of a lot of bands i like that the riff is a lot simpler than one would have imagined (like sometimes its just a one note or two note chord, yet sonically super rich); and when the drums kick in, they really amplify how cool a simple guitar riff can be. So that’s why I commented jokingly i need to find a good drummer to elevate my own guitar riffs. I really enjoyed the cure “high” riff. Cool selection of songs.

At last someone pays tribute to 90s post hardcore. Amazing
It’s all rock and roll to me haha. Thanks for the kind words!
What is "hardcore" about this garbage?
@@DonaldTrumps-zc5mu what a retarded scum
@@DonaldTrumps-zc5muI don’t think you know what post hardcore is
lol!!!!
This is basically my music library on shuffle. Great choices
Cheers!!! Ngl a lot of these songs/albums are all-timers for me too
that entire sonic youth record is just riff gold!! i especially love the bass-driven songs like mildred pierce
It was hard to pick just 1 song tbh
You got great taste in music, my friend. Post H, noise, alternative, grunge, Shoegaze, etc. I'm 35 so all this shit is dear to my heart. Even pulled some Shellac out your ass just to make my day even better. Glad we still got some of us around, we're becoming the Old Heads
Gotta show the youngs our rock and roll history lol
The 4 Dinosaur Jr. albums from 87 to 93 are loaded with incredible riffs, J Mascis really was a genius on the guitar!!!
Yup, still is a genius!
Let Down underrated
🤷🏻♂️
dude just came out of the radiohead circlejerk
Slint and Polvo don't get the respect they deserve. Thank you for doing these videos 🙌
Truth! Two of my all time faves. Thanks for watching!
Slint creeps into the soul
@@Griseus_ASMR_2 spiderland is my favourite album of all time!! i wouldn’t say they’re my favourite band (they just don’t have enough music) but they’re definitely up there
Great selection dude you have a fancy taste for alternative riffs
Cheers! Thanks!
When a video opens with Thru The Eyes of Ruby you know it's going to be good... And it was. Loved all of these
Cheers!!!
literally!
Guy actually pulled off the "Let Down underrated" lmao
In terms of their catalogue, I think so
I love all these songs, but I especially love that you did Conduit For Sale. One of Pavement's best.
Always stood out to me on that album!
Wow! My youth summed up in a playlist. Thanks, you made my day.
Awesome to hear you enjoyed it, thanks for watching!!!
ATDI is the shit!! Love that someone is shining light on their Vaya album
Always loved vaya as much as relationship tbh
Love song for karen, sonic youth doesnt get enuf love these days
One of my favorite bands ever
Sonic youth it’s probably my favorite band but unfortunately it’s too complicated music to be popular
Really love the JMJM, such a great guitar for its price. Great choice of riffs too.
Thanks! Yeah this is probably the best $600 guitar I’ve ever played
That tuning on "Sometimes" is crazy lol great video, thanks!
Kevin shields is a mad man 🤘🤘🤘
I love that Slint song
Whole album is a masterpiece, but washer has always held a special place for me 🥲
Love love love Slave Ship. Awesome to see it getting some recognition. :)
Hell yes, Jesus lizard is the truth
Great Pumpkins pick, great Soundgarden pick, great AIC pick, great NIN pick. Fckn Jesus Lizard, fckn Fugazi, fckn Slint all mentioned.
Perfect for me, would add a Unwound riff tho lmao
Cheers thanks!!! Unwound was on the initial list! but wanted to keep it at 20 unfortunately
Dragonaut by Sleep, so many riffs from Modest Mouse - criminally underrated band in general(the opening riff of Teeth Like God's Shoeshine, all of Doin the Cockroach, the seagull guitars of Make Everyone Happy/Mechanical Birds), Virginia Reel Around the Mountain by the Halo Benders has wonderful licks in it. Appreciate the Shellac inclusion, another criminally underrated band.
Cheers! Need to do a 90s metal version of this so I can include bands like Sleep. Never heard of the halo benders, gonna add that one to the list!
Great list. An interesting thing about Shellac's Pull the Cup is that it's played on a 16 string guitar with every string tuned to a high E
Oh damn, I never knew that! Just learned it by ear. But I knew there was something a littttle off still
@eastvillageguitarmethoddd apparently Albini had two custom made and gave the other one to Lee Ronaldo. There’s a cool Show Us Your Junk video on here where Ronaldo talks about it
Your love of music is contagious. Cant wait to check out your other vids
Really appreciate this comment, thanks for watching!
This is so cool! Fantastic picks!!
Cheers thank you for watching!!!
Excellent choice of songs
Thanks!
damn man! i didn't expect that polvo at the end! such an underrated band!
Cheers! Agreed, one of my fav indie rock bands
Great choice of songs. This is an awesome video.
Cheers thanks for watching!
let down UNDERRATED
I reckon so
r/radioheadcirclejerk
Radiohead as a whole is underrated. There are people around, who do NOT THINK, they are one of the best bands of all time.
Really eclectic, interesting choices. Great job on notating them too!
Thanks so much!
You got yourself a new Patreon subscriber!
I’d love to see a video on post-punk riffs (The Comsat Angels, Joy Division, The Chameleons, The Raincoats, etc.)
Thanks so much for joining me on this journey!
Great suggestion! Definitely want to do an 80s indie video
this is just band after band. nice one dude
Cheers!
Very very nice, with a couple of bands I never heard about, this video wake up my excitment about this genre !
Cheers thanks for stopping by, come back soon!
this entire video is basically just my playlists
Hahaaaaa same!
Soooo good ❤ i think i was the only one in knowing and like "The Jesus Lizard", it was a surprise to find them in this list together with some fantastic bands/albums: Pavement, Smashing, Pixies and my admired Sonic Youth. Me encanta! 🫶
Cheers thanks for watching!
Great selection and nice playing!
Thank you!
Love that Fugazi riffs. Thanks for the video, lots of bands i need to check out
Cheers! Hope there’s some good stuff for you to discover
the bands i love to see
Cheers!
What makes Let Down sound so amazing is it's 3 guitars
Layering is often the magic of Radiohead!
@@eastvillageguitarmethoddd Let Down is a great example
Only reason I say this is because my 3 piece band wanted to cover it but once I looked up the tab we decided it would be impossible
Awesome, Touch and go for the win!
Hell yeah. Probably due to do a T&G themed video too
great playing and a beautiful guitar.
Cheers thank you!
Nice! so many riffs I like here! very cool choices
Cheers thanks!
I LOVE PIXIES AND SONIC YOUTH!!!!!
2 of the all time greatest!
Great selection
Cheers thank you!
Very nice video. Some stuff, I really love. Some stuff, I rediscovered, some stuff, I did not know. And: Surf Wax America is a beast
Truly that Weezer riff was pretty hard to play
Aw now that was some serious love right there 🎸🎸🎶🎶❤️❤️ superb mate,some good memories here 💯💯
Cheers thanks for watching!
hell yeah at the drive in on here, good choice
Love their guitar work!
This was amazing! Thanks
Thank you for watching!
Shellac, Polvo and Slint?!! Sick video
My faves
Great tunes! Great playing! Thank you 😎😎
@Tomatitten cheers thank you!
That Soundgarden song ugh 🥰🥰🥰❤️
Such a majestic tune. Always loved that chord progression that I featured here
SLINT!!!
The bestttt
Ruby ! I played this riff a lot ! ❤
Suuuuuch a sick song
great taste with shellac
RIP Steve albini
Oh man, so many different tunings. Not easy to play along! Great video, though. Such great songs.
True! Maybe I should group tunings. But also I put a lot of thought into the flow of the music!
@@eastvillageguitarmethoddd yep, I love the flow of the music. I night have to buy more guitars so I can keep them all in different tunings. 😁
Re tuning your guitar is good practice! As you can see I used the same guitar for the whole video
A lit of deep cuts. Awesome.
🙌🙌🙌
CARELESS 061 - ALKA SELTZER ❤
this is an awesome list!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cheers!!!
Wow, putting Eraser in there was dope.
Cheers! Always thought that melody was haunting AF
Great video! Great tone. I really wish there was a Sunny Day song in here though. But thats just my opinion. Thank you! :D
Cheers thanks! Might have to do another one of these, and will def include them next time
In my best Beavis and Butthead impersonation: Yes, Yes, Yes, Rock 🤘
Heh heheh heh heh heh heh heh shut up beavis heh hehehe heh 🤘🤘🤘
sweet!
😤😤😤
Some failure, old school flaming lips and deftones would’ve been nice too! Also maybe some I Mother Earth. They had some many killer riffs like “like a girl”. If you’re looking for some fun and challenging 90’s rock you should give them a go. Loved your picks.
Cheers thank you! Never heard of I Mother Earth, will definitely investigate!

Thanks for the thoughtful recommendation!
Great playing! Is that a J. Mascis jazzmaster?
Thanks! Yup it’s the Squier mascis jazzmaster, loooove this guitar
1:06 underrated
🔥😈🎸
Love this song! But, come on, it's from RADIOHEAD's OK COMPUTER how Is It underrated??
Just think in terms of that album it’s a little slept on compared to some of the other tracks, maybe it’s just me!
@@guilhermevideira1r/radioheadcirclejerk
So underrated it wasn’t even played
always thought that polvo had custom tuning and pavement used standard - turns out it's vice versa!
Kinda always assumed the same too tbh hahaha
THIS GUY IS IN THE KNOW
Haha cheers 🤘🤘🤘
I love the Jazzmaster!
I have one just with a maple fretboard myself
Seriously considering buying another lol
Hello what is your amp please?
The sond is amazing❤
Using digital amps in GarageBand tbh! jamming econo
Great! And with J Mascis guitar! Could you please tell me your thoughts about it? I looking for a guitar on a budget and this is one of the possibilities.. Thank you!
One of my favorite guitars tbh, especially at that price point!
@@eastvillageguitarmethoddd Thank you! What about the bridge? Is it difficult to play some grunge or similar?
The bridge pickup can be a little shrill/thin sounding at high gain. But if you dial in the distortion correctly you can compensate. I even have a couple Iron Maiden videos with this guitar, the palm muting can sound great in certain contexts
@@eastvillageguitarmethoddd Thanks for answering ^^ When it comes to buy on a budget it's like too decisive which guitar you choose. Thanks a lot again!
It’s easily one of the best $600 guitars I’ve ever played. Especially considering the current state of the guitar market (ie: 600 isn’t gonna get you much of anything nowadays)
You what I love about this? Not one band is on here twice.
What would be the fun in that? Too many good bands to choose from!
@@eastvillageguitarmethoddd Yea ik like alot of lists just have the biggest names and their biggest hits but theres so much variety with list which is why its so good.
I don’t think any of us need to see smells like teen spirit played ever again lol
Thru the eyes of Ruby is amazing song !!!! Riff psycodelic 100%
So many good songs on that album, but Ruby always held a special place in my heart
I'm enjoying them a lot! Just curious on how well the JMJM would do a full step down, do you think it can get a BMTH tone or the CuNiFe wide range would be the best take? Anyways, thanks for sharing your content, keep on rocking, cheers from Brazil!
Cheers! The Mascis jazzmaster handles heavy tones really well, but the palm mutes can be a little thin when you’re using a lot of overdrive. But it’s overall one of the most diverse guitars I’ve ever used
Some fantastic choices here. Great riffs. How many of them were recorded by the late Steve Albini?
Cheers thanks! Good point, albini was involved with so many incredible recordings from this era. I miss him every day
Respect for The Cure and Radiohead!
🔥🔥😈😈🎸🎸
Fugaaaazzziiiiii
Not enough love from the guitar community for them tbh. This riff is hot 🔥
@@eastvillageguitarmethoddd fugazi has some amazing riffs! Bulldog front, repeater, waiting room
The riff in this video required some real technique
@@eastvillageguitarmethoddd I bet
Can you please do an instructional on breadcrumb trail. Also possibly the shadow of Seattle.
You got it 🫡
Very underrated elliott song!
Whole album is absolutely incredible
9:57 FUCK YEAH POLVO!!!!
Love em!
What is your gear in this video? Pedals etc.. Is it an all original Squire Jazzmaster J Mascis?
anyway congratulations on your skill
Yeah it’s the Mascis jazzmaster, no modifications. I’m using digital amps and effects in GarageBand. Trying to be as resourceful as possible for now
Hey men love the vid
Got a question how do you record the vid, did you record the guitar at the same time ?
Thanks! Yeah I record the audio into a DAW while I record the video separately
@@eastvillageguitarmethoddd alright thanks men
I know, I know, this is your list, and an excellent one, too. But it needs some Built to Spill, c'mon. Or maybe some Treepeople? Now that would be a treat!
Cheers my dude.
There were many other artists and songs that kept occurring to me after making my list haha. Gotta do more than 20 next time! Cheers!!!
Washer is my favorite Slint song ❤️
Hard to choose, but yeah it’s incredible
Hey dude, excellent song choices, we share common tastes. What amp/equipment do you use for the recording? It sounds really good.
Cheers thanks! I actually just used GarageBand for the audio. Trying to keep things simple!
Is that one of those new squire paranormal guitars?
It’s a Squier J Mascis Jazzmaster
nice
🙌🙌🙌
slint’s riff seems simple yet so eclectic in a way that it would fit in a shoegaze or even black metal song
Yeah, watershed band in many ways!
How is the let down one not in 5/4 all the way through?
The underlying drum rhythm is in 4/4, so I decided to notate the guitar that way. I ended on a measure of 5/4 so that the riff would cut off at a natural place
1:06
Yeah, had to edit out Radiohead because their label made a copyright claim on this video 😭
Instead of Junkhead I'd put Godsmack by AIC instead
Hard to go wrong tbh
Like for Elliott Smith :) Sick taste and playing dude!!
Cheers! Need to do more Elliott in the future for sure
i missed Jawbox here!
Tbh I seen the name but don’t know that band. Time to investigate!
@@eastvillageguitarmethoddd please, you won't regret! For Your Own Special Sweetheart is a masterpiece!
Bro's got the Mascis Jazzmaster, nice
Thing is built to rock
PAVEMENT MENTIONED
How could they not be lol
Pavementioned
Alice In Chains - "Junkhead" sounds like "In Bloom"😅
Definitely some stylistic similarities
FUH-KN KNARLY!
🎸😈🔥🤘
What pedal ??
Buncha different effects and settings used in this video. What song are you talking about?
Los Riff del Post Hardcore son mejores que los del Rock Alternativo
😈😈😈🤘🔥🎸
That bridge pickup sound is amazing that you get
Thanks! Yeah truly love the bridge pickup on this thing
drown by smashing pumpkins should be on here
Maybe next time!
21 with Futurism vs. Passeism Part 2 by Blonde Redhead.
Tbh I need to listen to this band closer
What i learned from this video… i need a good drummer 😂
A good drummer makes all the difference! Not sure if you are complimenting the drums here? lol, either way thanks for watching!
@@eastvillageguitarmethoddd How the drums highlight the guitar.

So that’s why I commented jokingly i need to find a good drummer to elevate my own guitar riffs.
I really enjoyed the cure “high” riff. Cool selection of songs.
Oh for sure, a good drum pattern can do so much to elevate a simple riff!
