Maybe it's not heavy enough.Other great taco riffage:Black Sabbath - Children of the Grave (though almost anything really)Fu Manchu - SupershooterMelvins - Night Goat, Sweet Willy RollbarTo me 'Angel of Death' (and its ilk) doesn't count because it doesn't really fit the gleefully decadent part of the Taco criteria. Oh, unless you're talking about the bridge riff. That's a Taco Riff for sure. If you mean the intro or chorus riffs; they certainly shred, but shredding is not tacoing.Also the mention of 'Sweet Wily Rollbar' reminded me that I think 'Revolve' is like a Taco showcase. One taco after another, BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!EDIT: Jesus what on earth led me to sleep on Entombed for so long. It's not like I don't listen to dozens of bands who rip them off wholesale.

Damn, I am loving this thread.

It's National Taco Day, y'all. I see no reason why celebrations shouldn't also include taco riffs.

it's obviously complex, multifaceted phenomena. but if i understand correctly, this song is comprised nearly entirely of taco riffs:edited for grammar. ALSO edited because: although not metal, yet aren't a bunch of brainiac riffs tacos?

I was trying to convey to mrs. two hands the concept of the taco riff. but it didn't make sense because I couldn't state it properly. But then the Trophy Wives were playing, and I said "that there is a taco riff, my dear." And she totally got it.
