Toughest riff in the Metallica catalog?

[wibble]

Yeah I know what you mean - but remember certain songs are recorded using much more than one or two guitar tracks. So you could be trying to play something on one guitar that was recorded using ten different guitars.
And Megadeth? I really need to sit down and learn the "Tornado" riff.

Very good point that about the multi guitar arrangements, tho looking at the tab, it doesn`t appear that way, just me i guess

The intro to Enter Sandman gets me every time.

Start playing bass instead of guitar.

I used to play that riff (years ago) as a down up up. I just wrote a similar riff using that same pattern. It's not a triplet, by the way. It's 16 16 8.

And play punk... I guess that helped me...

The riff is easy. Learn the lead

That lead kicks my butt. Easily the hardest part of any tune mentioned in this thread so far.
