Imagine being able to play 70 riffs
Hamza Khan couldn’t possibly be me
Hamza Khan dang i feel that...
@@AcousticOlli Interesting
@@AcousticOlli It's not the learning as much as memorising 70 in your head.
MrOlliguitar Huh. Puppets is hard? Now that I’ve been playing for a couple more years I never noticed puppets was a bit difficult. I’m sure I struggled when I was learning it way back, which makes sense. Or you can just learn the whole master of puppets album, solos and all, it helped me get my down picking to the point where it was second nature, and got me into soloing way back. I do believe a more difficult riff would be battery or fight fire with Fire. But that doesn’t matter, I still have a lot more to learn, I would say i still suck.
9:12 A riff so heavy I can no longer hear anything, and I think my ears are bleeding. Send help.
Nah bro the audio just got fucked up, ur good.

The heaviness of E tuning is dissonant.
The heaviness of the lower tunings is "thicker".
There's just different kinds of heaviness
2:57, that's one of the heaviest riffs I've ever heard let alone being in e standard
I was honestly super surprised
How do you even get those noises out of your guitar in e standard
@@bloodblade5860 palm muting and heavy chords mate
@@recruitdifficulty1638 I mean yeah. But for some reason I can hit the same notes and mine just sounds flimsier. Im sure there is a lot of technique I dont quite have down but still mine sounds super thin.
@@bloodblade5860 maybe a weak guitar. Just place the finger on the first three strings on any fret and there. But maybe you got weak strings idk
Slayer - Crionics
Metallica - Harvester of Sorrow
Coroner - Internal Conflicts
Harvester is and always be a banger
I prefer freyed ends of sanity over harvester personally
Kyle Knapp so do I. My second favourite Metallica song, just behind the Outlaw Torn
Megadeth - The Conjuring
Judas Kiss’s chorus riff is heavy af too.
*Showing "dad rock tuning" is heavy 1 juicy riff at a time*
EDIT: Had to sadly cut Opeth - Deliverance, Sylosis - After Lifeless Years & Pantera - Domination short due to my good old friend copyright...

Nik, my man... you're the best. Thank you for your inspirational perseverance and work ethic.🙇♂️🙇♂️🙇♂️
i love you you mad lad
E standard needs to be renamed to dad-tuning
I'm sure there's a joke in there somewhere about DADGAD
Please can you make a cover of song greatest generation of band all that remains.
No Destruction riff!!!
E standard isn’t heavy!
Breakdown in Domination: *Laughs in hidden*
Domination is actually tuned 1/4 step down on the album
jeroen van den noordt Not in moscow 1991
@@lambsauce9404 in Moscow Eb
@@kamilgainutdinov7540 Yeah but still
it was Eb I think
9:12 that riff from the song Copyright is probably the heaviest riff of the entire decade.
Now do it an octave down!
thats what i thought he was going to do at first
And its gonna sounds like a fart...
That will be a bass guitar...
To anyone saying it’ll sound like a fart or a bass lol it would actually be (basically) 8 string tuning and most of the songs would still sound great. As some of them would just need to stay right where they are. Listen to some within the ruins to hear some 9 string tuning and see if it sounds like a fart lmao
@@99shredder Tosin abasi 8 strings but standard E big difference. Riff makes music heavy not the downtuning.
3:10 it's crazy how when you palm-mute those 2 bottom strings, you could almost swear it's drop A. Adding the lowest note of the power chord doesn't mean a huge difference. So deathcore in E standard is totally possible.
Yeah, it's an inverted power chord, the fifth and the root are switched. In standard, the root note would be on the A string, therefore it's equivalent to a standard powerchord with an E string tuned down to A. My favourite example is Sylosis - Servitude, check it out.
Winds of plague everything untill against the world (including) is in e standard
@@robertwoods5168 Servitude is a behemoth of a song, that riff literally feels like a semi truck smashing into your skull
Think you need them ears checking mate
And when you play 002 in e standard in any manner, everyone thinks you're in drop a since it sounds the same with 000 in drop a.
One of my favorites in E standard is 7 Words by Deftones, the riff always gets me going
The breakdown riff, oof
Facts bro
'Malpractice' and 'Jizzlobber' by Faith No More are two of the heaviest songs in standard I've ever heard.
Edit: I think 7 Words might actually be in drop D.
@@olivermahoney3429 im sure a lot of people play 7 words in drop d but I'm pretty sure all of adrenaline was played by Deftones in standard
@@ash_aidenAdrenaline was all standard and Drop D.
"E standard isn't heavy"
Megadeth: *are you sure about that*
Yes
Megadeth makes e standard NOT sound heavy lmao
Imo, Megadeth was never that heavy when they played E standard. They were fast as fuck and thrashy, but never really heavy. Maybe I missed a song or 2, so if you feel that I'm wrong please recommend something.
@@kevah94 youre right. They werent really heavy like Metallica slayer or dream theater. But they are fast and technical.
But youre right!
@Lee McDonald no listen dont get me wrong they are heavy. But megadeth is more about the speed. Becasue .Metallica are not really a thrash group. Master of puppets and and justice for all arnt fast albums. Sure they have fast moments but most of it is slow and head crushing. But megadeth dont reallly have those slow moments its mostly the faster moments. If you know what i mean. Idk if that doesnt make sense thats fine its just my opinion. \m/
Alt. Intro:
Standard tuning is not heavy "E"nough

"E Standard isnt heavy"
Opeth: Hold my beer/Håll min öl
Edit: it's obvious some people dont understand the joke, so let me spell it out for you. It's about how opeth released their last record in both english and swedish.
Hannu Johansson even though he didn’t put them on here, Deicide’s first two albums were E standard. Those two albums have some of their best riffs imo
@@tannermullins3714 I think one of the first songs was an Opeth song that slid by the Copyright Guards.
Sylosis: hold my flask
@@Christian-my4dp yes, sylosis has the best by far tbh
Metallica: Hold my money
10:43 My childhood!! This is why I really got into the Sonic games. From Sonic Adventure through Sonic Heroes, the games always had great rock/metal songs. I'm hoping to cover some songs in the future, just need a guitar with a whammy bar lol

Ok guys. It's pretty easy to get confused with Metallica and their alternate tunings, especially when some albums have like 4 or 5 of them.

Or perhaps the Label
10:46 ok I didn't see that one coming
Here’s a challenge, heaviest riffs in alternate/ odd tunings. Ex. Humanity’s last breath and dream theater
Anthony Sanchez Outshined, Them Bones, and basically any Tool song. Some of the songs would be hard to learn *AHEM* (Dream Theater) but easy to find riffs.
glass cloud
Structures
I could imagine him just whipping out abyssal mouth and only doing the drug out chugs in the beginning
Would definitely call for some Devy, dude writes in open C. Hella weird.
i can honestly say i never knew Winds Of Plague was in E Standard. so crazy, but it sounds so damn good too.
especially seeing them live. just holy shit
i played with them round about a year ago for the decimate the weak 10th anniversary tour
i'm fairly certain that everything after the great war is not in standard, but dtw and tgw are both e standard!
Yeah they got some heavy af riffs!
Honestly same, but for me it was As Icicles Fall by Ne Obliviscaris. I thought they used B standard 7 strings across their entire discography...
well i didn't mean EVERYTHING is in standard E. but that wasn't clear in my original comment lol
still, crazy to think about that heaviness in that turning haha
As the early Winds or Plague albums are in E standard they like to do 4th chords on the low E and A strings so it’s like doing a power chord on a 7 string but the 7th string isn’t there. Give a tight heavy and “lower than E” sound cause technically you can make it go down to an A sound
Imagine knowing 70 riffs but end up playing smoke on the water at a guitar store
That‘s a sad Moment
I hate it man, its a plague for us intermediates lol
Stage fright i guess lol
6:16 Anything off of Arise could be in this list. I remember picking up tabs to learn "Desperate Cry" and thinking... "this is in standard?!"
Sylosis, such an underrated band. SO glad to see them in a video.
I think the thing with E standard is that its heavy riffs always sound really tight.
My favorite riff by the way will always be from Heir Apparent. That riff just annihilates me every time I listen to it.
Tight is the perfect way to describe it- if you watch rob scallon's 12 string capo metal video you'll hear the same thing but to an extreme
@@shanepartridge2744 i describe it as tight and Harsh
Exactly what i thought after tuning my guitar to standard for the first time in years, this sounds tight af.
Tbf he didn't play it right way
Chunky riffs all day
43% burned is the #1 for me on this whole list. It just hits in such a particular way
I've come to the conclusion that every possible riff has already been written. Anything I "write" now will just be plagiarism.
That’s how I felt once! You eventually pass that plateau if you broaden your horizons and learn new songs in new styles you didn’t know before :)
Gotta write in unconvention time sigs and weird scales. Tony Iommi alone has devesitated our chances at original riffs
That is the unfortunate reality. Imagine how many songs are there in this world rn from the beginning? Im pretty sure someone already did it somewhere. BUT, not original does not mean you can't be different.
ehhh to a degree, but music is art just like painting. Just because someone else discovered the colour blue doesn’t mean you cant use the colour blue
Remember what you hear in your head no one else does .you could take the same exact chords and it will sound completely different due to your right hand rhythm and the way you think if that makes sense lol.
This guy finally got into Sylosis 😭😍 and he knows after lifeless years...their best one
Aha yeah they're awesome!
Amazing song, but I wouldn't say best. Definitely their most popular song by far. If Nik covered Altered States of Conciousness, I'd poop my pants.
Heavy E standard riffs? Well, that'll be the entire Sylosis back catalogue.
Pretty much
Power Trip...
I knew this dude in high school that played guitar and he was mostly into Metallica, Floyd, Zeppelin, etc but he always said that Dillinger riff was insane. He must have asked me if I had heard that song at least 4 times in a single semester
The question is. Are the bands making music for guitar players or for people in general? Cause literally the only people who cares about tuning are the guitar players.
The fact Live and Learn is in this just shows how great Nik is 🤘
Yes! I got so hyped when I heard live and learn.
Crush 40 SA1 & 2 both kick some serious ass
ngl open your heart would've been a better pick imo, but crush 40 slaps either way
Aha thank you! I was debating putting it on here since it's not a super "heavy" riff but something about it just gives you a rush of energy
Nik Nocturnal yeah I get what you mean! Glad you put it on, great video!
Sylosis are amazing at making E standard sound just as heavy as any drop tuning, even thought it’s more about the riff then the tubing anyways. Don’t forget Opeth who I also think make amazing E Standard death metal riffs when everyone else in death metal at the time would downtune no matter what
Yeah OPETH and Sylosis absolutely dominated this for me
Sylosis tone fits damn too well with E standard tuning. That's Josh Midleton's clarity sound that I love so much in his heavy riffs
Dropping to drop C and below to get the muddy sound would ruin that - and therefore the riffs
Opeths heir apparent is the heaviest song ever wrote in E standard imo
Sylosis kills standard tuning!!! I was just waiting to see that riff from Empyreal and you didn't disappoint!! Glad to see they got a good amount of love on here. Winds of Plague too! And of course, Dillinger!!! E standard can def be heavy af! I will forever love Eb standard though, one of my favorite tunings. That half step under just hits different, I can thank Dime for that.
Something I never considered with these videos is how much you have to program drums for every fucking riff. Like holy shit that’s dedication.
Winds Of Plague & Sylosis, the most brutal stuff on E standard
The great stone war was so perfect.
and dillinger esc plan
7:45: smells like demonatization
Pretty much
Why
If not for that 1:41 will definitely get it demonotized
Black metal is a dangerous game
So cool to see the band Cynic in recent RUclips vids, I saw them open up for Carcass in the early '90s and they really changed my understanding of how versatile "heavy" music is. Thanks for sharing Nik!
Seriously man your video just opened up a huge array of new songs to learn! Cheers! Also your riffing rocks and so does that sexy guitar!
After watching this video:
I'll turn my guitar back to E standard
Ah yes, Finally tuning, my favorite
@@maximilianodelrio Holy S*it... Thanks pal, I was hurry to write and I wrote that.
I would do that too, but my neck would break coz i have thicc ass strings
@@n00bguitarist88 Me too, I really miss playing in E Standard but my strings will break if I tune up, so I really understand your situation.
Edit: I'll start to use less thick strings
Just get another guitar. I've got one in E, one in drop C and an 8 string for when I'm feeling fruity.
*Domination breakdown intensifies*
I love the weird look when you're playing the easy riffs that still sound badass in pantera and dillinger escape plan. And the stuff that has you stretching along the fretboard rather than just hitting powerchords is great. All the math metal stuff kinda belongs on its own. It's beyond heavy, where few men dare tread.
There was this local band “the Viking” and they played all in E standard and they were fucking brutal. When I found that out I was thoroughly impressed
This isn't standard but Cattle Decapitation is only tuned to Eb which is pretty damn impressive. Definitely a worthy mention.
THE heaviness is in the tone, fingers and the amount of *CHUG!* and technical grooviness that comes into the riffs. And that’s just my statement.
Lower tunings can help in the chug tho tbf
Also drums
@@No1WillMakeItOutAlive i think he meant chugs* plural cause it seems like the only way to truly get heavy with E riffs is to have lots of fast tight chugs in polyrhythmic patterns jumping back and forth between that and dissonance on the highs
Psyfonify ya I agree, like 43% burnt. Panic chords don’t need that low of chugs to hit hard
@@No1WillMakeItOutAlive or like some of the groovier gojira riffs that chug an inverted power chord on the bottom two strings which would sound just as chunky and menacing in E if played with such brutal precision and groove as them
Great vid!! Lots of awesome songs and the playing was tight AF! Cheers bro
Thank you Nik Nocturnal for restoring my faith in E Standard... \m/
Had me at Sonic adventure 2 Battle riff not gonna lie
I was so fucking happy to see it there

Amazing video and a great choice of riffs! I'm extremly happy that you included Celtic Frost and Opeth. What a glorious compilation of awesome tunes. Thank you for that.
Opeth has the ability to make complete silence a work of art, though.

@@beenmicrophone5817 Blackwater park, Still life, Ghost reveries, Deliverance are essential Opeth albums. Blackwater park is proboably my favorite but only by a hair.
@@beenmicrophone5817 Still Life easily. I've enjoyed all of them except for Heritage (their first album after they stopped playing Metal), but Still Life just sticks out. Mature songwriting, tons of prog influence without becoming "many unrelated riffs in random order" that some of their later stuff suffered a bit from.
@@beenmicrophone5817 that's an excellent album. Hard to go wrong with their other albums (up until sorceress where they changed their style completely).

So many bands coming up on this that I haven't listened to in a long time. This is just making me want to stay up all night and revisit some of my favorite songs
liked just for the inclusion of "Vampira" by Devin Townsend. One of the mere four songs he's ever done in E (barring demos)
You covered most tunings.
How about “heaviest riffs that aren’t focused on the lowest string”?
Or something like that
Rafael Orsato Silveira are you new to metal or...?
Asparagus No, I’m not.
I completely understand that metal uses all the guitar strings. But most riffs are made of the Open lowest string and some other notes.
What I mean with this comment is riffs that don’t focus in the lowest string.
For example riffs that are focused in the Open A string, instead of the Open Low E, or even riffs that don’t even use open strings.
he's gonna do experimental and alternate tunings next hopefully

Thanks for the band recommendations! Great work
Wasn’t expecting Live and Learn from Sonic Adventures 2, that gave me a nostalgia attack seeing that
Clicked on this thinking “there better be some Opeth on this list.”
*First song starts*
It isn’t in the pitch of a riff, it’s in it’s in a riff’s intervals. A riff will always sound roughly the same in standard on a six string as it did in standard on a seven string. You don’t need drop B. You just need drop D. The riff to Panic Attack (Dream Theater) is always crazy heavy and fast, whether in A# standard (tuning in the original version) or in E standard.
yep but lower tunings does help make it heavier (but not always)
@@noobguitarist843 they perhaps add nuance (which does factor into heaviness, a riff will basically be heavy until you fully understand it, and have burnt out on it), and bring it closer to the bass range. It's inconsistent, i'd say. I kinda agree with you. I should have clarified: It's _mostly_ in the intervals of a riff, more so than in the pitch.
Glad I found this channel. Great stuff man!

True king among all tunings. A well crafted riff is a well crafted riff
