Ah to hell and damnation with G&R....you do have a point with Placebo mind you. Z
The opening riff to The Rocker by Thin Lizzy is awesome, as are the riffs throughout.
Definitely something by Tool for me, almost everything they do riff/rhythm-wise just mesmerises me (I could stick anything from the 10,000 Days album on here and be happy with my choice!). Usually I love the complexity of their stuff but for this I'll go simple and pick Stinkfist. Ridiculously simple (just 2 notes with a bend) but man, the power in them two notes! I've been ripping off the chords in the chorus for years too and will continue to do so for a long time yet.Stinkfist - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=07pLGIgyfjwGot to agree with those , but have a listen to the riff in Art of Dying by Gojira it comes in at about 5 minutes 45 seconds (but you need to listen through to then cos its the power of the counterpoint of that riff that creates the impact) Oh and if you ever get the chance to see them live then take it a truly stunning live band .Honorable mentions - Last by NIN needs a mention for sheer beastly face-shredding stomp-factor - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MeoyOIRIeHsHey Man Nice Shot by Filter, which is doubly epic because as well as having one of the coolest bass lines of all time on the verse it also boasts one of the mightiest riffs ever conceived on the chorus - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o9mJ82x_l-E#t=80

And one amazing riff every guitarist should know but hardly any do for some peculiar reason. Cardiacs - Is This The Lifehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rAEO3Dvugcw
