No contest.

What he said, if your going to go with a classic riff like that at least try to find a worthy competitor (AKA: Purple Haze)

Zep 5
King's X 1

OK, that was a decimation. Next up: Pet_Sounds?

It's actually EPOCH's turn.

EPOCH6 · 01-25-2015, 10:41 PM

Next round:

UFO - Rock Bottom

Nazareth - Hair of the Dog

Oops.

UFO by a mile. That riff is just so tight and mean, and played with such energy, while Nazareth's is kind of lazy, and the start/stop nature of the song is kind of frustrating TBH. UFO indulges that riff for all its worth and it just makes the song like crack. Too bad that overlong solo in the middle just keeps going on and on. Kinda kills the momentum of the song. They could have easily but two minutes off of it and the song would have been much better for it.

UFO - 1
Nazareth - 0

That'd be after Pet_Sounds, then myself. We need a signup sheet in the first post.

I can see the relationship in each riff EPOCH. Another similar one for either of these would have been Sammy Hagar's I Don't Need Love. Nice match up though, but I gotta go with my man Schenker on this one.

UFO - 2
Nazareth - 0
