MASTODON riffs is here BOYS! Check out my Patreon my friends. A bunch of good stuff there. Thanks everyone for the support! www.patreon.com/vermilion_god

Came here for that The Last Baron riff, was not disappointed.

I think we can all agree that riff from Last Baron is one of the greatest guitar riffs ever, right? It suddenly shows up like 8 mins into the song, while it would have been other bands' greatest hit, and probably it did deserve its own song. I wish the riff to March of the Fire Ants, especially with the snare pattern, was more than just the intro (and outro) :/

The last baron riff just convinced me to go listen to more songs of this band

Seabeast is the mother of all mastodon riffs. Such a killer song closer.

Those rifts are straight fire, I'm impressed your strings didn't just ignite

I was waiting for blood and thunder. That is one of the meatiest riffs I've heard

Met Mastodon last year, they're definitely some of the most chill guys I've ever met. Definitely in my top 3 favorite bands

2:21 the one riff we all came for!

The breakdown riff from Megalodon is one of the dirtiest, sickest, heaviest things i've ever heard

I've got some unpopular picks for my favorite Mastodon riffs (I love slow, dark, heavy and atmospheric riffs): - Hearts Alive outro riff - Hearts Alive pre chorus and chorus riffs - The Czar heavy and slow riff in the middle - Aqua Dementia the riffs of the ending part - Trilobite, the heavy dissonant riff - Crack the Skye, the heavy riff with Scott Kelly and the riff under the robotic voice - the outro riffs of Diamond in the Witch House -Tread Lightly intro - Intro and outro riff of Where Strides the Behemoth -All riffs of Ol'e Nessie

I love that every single one of their albums sounds so different from the last! You have Remission which is super sludgey and even thrashy at times followed by Leviathan which takes all the elements of Remission and adds more progressive elements to it. Then Blood Mountain you get a total blend of their sludginess and progginess combined into this almost desert rock type sound. Then Crack The Skye is just a flat out Prog Rock record followed by the much more psychedelic style they've been going with on their recent albums! Can't wait for Hushed and Grim

Crusher Destroyer! My first taste of Mastodon on Tony Hawk's Underground for the good old PlayStation 2

The only thing I would add is that one riff from The Czar. You know which one I mean.

Better than any other band on the scene and that's a fact! I have a vastly different top 10 though. I'd have to include sleeping giant, aqua dementia, Quintessence, Trilobite, ol'e Nessie, divinations, Bedazzled Fingernails, probably some other riffs from the hunter and blood mountain as well.

I've never been a massive fan of Mastodon, but I'd always happily jam to whatever song came on. But I'd never heard The Last Baron until today and that riff is absolutely killer.

No memeing, I literally just closed porn for this.

Colony of Birchmen is my alltime favourite song, that or The Sparrow

Remission is so underrated, every riff on that album is straight fire

I’m absolutely in love with Mastodon and this video just... amazing my dude.

Yes, yes, yes, YES, YES, A THOUSAND YESSES. This is amazing. Nice work on the programmed drums

Yes!!! The video I've been waiting for. Love these guys so much. Great job on this and keep up the good work

Would love to see a top 10 Baroness riffs with they’re most recent album coming out a couple weeks ago.

Brann is such a genius that 2 of the riffs in here were written by him and he’s a drummer. Brann wrote the riffs for iron Tusk and blood and thunder. Anyway sad to not hear the last minute of either circle of cysquatch or hunters of the sky, those are unquestionably 2 of mastodon’s best and sickest riffs and they never get mentioned. Anyway still good work man, mastodon is legendary.

That was epic man. Nice mix of new and old

Been waiting for this, Man! Flawlessly executed!

Hell yeah The Last Baron "booty shake" riff is awesome ! And honestly Mother Puncher's last riff could have been there (actually the whole song is just like 4 kickass riffs). Great vid

Love it. Gave me a mastodong. Favorite band. May I suggest another video, cuz it would be super easy to get hooked by 10 more sweet, sweet Bill Kelliher riffs

much better sound than previously, awesome job sir!

Great selection of riffs, especially from the older material. 🤘

Amazing! Mastodon has so many amazing riffs that you can start planning pt2 and pt3

How can somebody hear those riffs and not fall in love with Mastodon? Ember City's main riff is another gem from them, in contrast to these very nasty and heavy ones, it has to be one of the most gorgeous riffs of them... Great video!

Just saw your Gojira riffs and was about to comment on that vid for you to do Mastadon, but here we are!!!!

That Last Baron riff is one of the best riffs ever. You have a new subscriber here.

Great Vid, man. The tone on this one was nice. It actually made think about a band I've not listened to in years; Neurosis. Time to go listen to Through Silver and Blood.

The best part of Mastodon, besides Troy's gutpunch of a bass tone or Brann's metronomic drumming, is Brent's ability to throw the grooviest riffs you'll ever hear directly between two riffs from Bill that will kick your fucking teeth in.

Awesome video

Thanks for including the last baron, you understand music my man

This is great, keep it up

The Last Baron was the first Mastodon song I heard. I liked from the start but THAT riff made me want to listen their whole discography

Incredible as always! \m/

I've been waiting this for so long...

Great shirt, great riffs!

More Trivium Riffs! 🔥🔥

Lost society riffs, and Crisix riffs would be cool Greatings from France

Awesome, thanks! It's so good! Still waiting Soilwork!

Dude, you are a legend! I was actually listening to Emperor Of Sand, hands down my favorite album of 2017. Keep on making awesome videos man! \m/

Your tone is SO CLEAN dude

I need to learn that last baron riff, such an amazing song.

Godlike tone, congrats.

I wasn't expecting to see the last riff of Seabeat. Great choice!

Very good job guy. I'm waiting for Opeth riffs! Thx...Riff is life!!!

That's why I love Mastodon! Sounds super cool, plays super fun!!!

You forgot every riff from Capillarian Crest.

Rad guitar tone, dude!

Awesome video as always man! Idk if you’ve already made it, but Top 10 Meshuggah riffs?

Too ofter matching the tone is overlooked in these types of videos but in this case you sir nailed it! Great picks! Like a freight train crashing full speed.

Awesome video as always bro! They are kind of a lesser known band, but Top 10 Nothing More riffs?

Nice rancid shirt my dude. Also I’m really happy to see that the le last baron got some love

YES!!! Finally Mastodon. I've been waiting for this video, for so long and that was a deep shit bro hahaha I can't thank you enough man! Ps: almost 100k subscribers \m/

Never really listened to mastodon before other that blood and thunder, but when I heard the last baron riff my brain creamed and now I must hear everything

Love the last minute of Seabeast, its so fun

Almsot 100k subs keep up the good work my dude

And this is why I love this band!

Good choices

sick bro

Two of my favorite bands. You’re playing Mastodon and wearing Rancid.

Nailed it!!

Sick 🤘🏾

Sad that "Sultan's Curse" wasn't here :( Awesome video as usual my dude! \m/

Please make a part 2 because there are son many good riffs

well done in the last baron riff

Awesome!

Love Mastodon, I got the chance to meet the boys after they blew the roof off of Cobo Hall when they were on the Unholy Alliance tour with Slayer, CoB and Lamb of God (also 17 y/o edgelord me was all hype because that show happened to be on July 6, 2006 aka 6/6/6). They were cool dudes and Hinds... ...who was at the very least a 26oz of whiskey deep at this point... ...was nice enough to give me an answer when I fanboyed by asking him how he came up with the slick solo at the end of “Elephant Man” and if he knew how to play/where I could find the sheet music or tabs to learn the solo. “No idea kid really, pretty sure it was improv’d and recorded first take” Of course he was flanked by two buddies who were helping him over to the tour bus so grain of salt and all that. Anyways awesome video, great playing and thanks for spreading the good word about Mastodon; not enough people and players know just how great this band and their catalogue of fuckin atomic, sonic enlightenment.

If you ever feel like making a video showcasing riffs that utilize both guitars as a solid, tight, unrelenting unit; use Emperor riffs.

very unique riffs

My two favorite Mastodon riffs next to each other in the same video, Iron Tusk and The Last Baron

Awesome list. A personal favourite of mine is Octopus has no friends.

yes, I would have done the same list !

Aaaahhhhhh 2 of my all time favourites - Blood & Thunder and Colony Of Birchmen 👍👍

Great video 😜😜💓

I was about to complain about the lack of Emperor Of Sand riffs (Scorpions Breath, Andromeda, Sultans Curse, Ancient Kingdom...) but The Last Baron riff just touched my heart...

I love this seabeast breakdown

Your tone is sick AF

the use of sliding natural harmonics in the The Last Baron riff is fucking INSPIRED

w8 you got that awesome tone from the joyo amp?? great job man! big fan of mastodon myself.

Man do the hook riff of the Czar! It is one my favorite all time mastodon riffs, so is the solo.

No love for Emperor Of Sand :( Great choices nevertheless.

Came here for Mother puncher was not disappointed

Great video!! I'm really having a hard time with the pinky pull off on the Last Baron riff. The string wants to hit my ring finger. I'll keep trying.

Last baron! Nailed it!

Not sure if that megalodon riff really is a "Mastodon" riff lmao but still a sick riff, my favorite band. Sick video as always!

Good video.

Bold move to just play Iron Tusk 10 times in a row, but I couldn't agree more. One of the most satisfying, simple, badass, and unbelievably heavy grooves of all time.

Iced Earth riffs please man! Btw love your tones and playing.

Iron Tusk!! Such an addicting riff.

I hope you take a The Leper Affinity riff for Opeth's.

very creativ riffs

I love the fact that "the" Last Baron riff is included in all "Top Mastodon..." videos.

High road! Yes baby!
