runner up: Bloodbath - So You Die
Progressive metal:
runner up: Opeth - Serenity Painted Death
Metalcore:
runner up: 🤔
I could probably come up with a top 5-10 for each genre. I could probably dig for 5 more genres. This is already a sick playlist.
Honorable mentions to Rage Against The Machine and Soilwork. Some absolute riff kings. Those two bands honestly trump the whole list/thread/whatever.

What about thrash metal?
-
Not a fan of most OG thrash bands, personally, so my top picks would be bands influenced by those bands.
I'd say top thrash riff pick would probably be
Children of Bodom - Lake Bodom
I'd have to revisit Kiuas's first 3 albums to pick out the thrash bangers. They're mostly power metal with some thrash, black, and melodeath.
If well allow Kiuas - Heart Of The Serpent as thrash, then yeah. But idk kinda more black/power metal than thrash.
I guess of OG thrash I do love sepultura... And Kiko Laurieo in general. Does Angra count by association? Or are they way too power? 😔
