I love how the entire metal community just agrees that this is the heaviest fucking riff ever.

[@brettfrimmer6567]

Not opinion. Fact

[@LeoM-zt3pl]

There's nothing to argue

[@kjn5991]

Pretty sure it's tied with Walk by Pantera. both are simple, crushing and heavy.

[@alanbbrady8196]

Nah.... Discharge Riffs are waaaaaaaay heavier.

[@MrRoman-lo6ih]

ITs so heavy, I circle pit in my living room, punch my 7 year old kid with special needs, couch surf in tall grass and stage dive my couch. LONG LIVE THRASH!!! :D

[@panelbolcsessegekalacsonyk4176]

This is not a riff....This is THE RIFF!!!!!!

[@mattkurtz6870]

Yes sir, you are right.

[@maxichamberlain1021]

Absofuckinglutly! I would watch Headbangers Ball just for the SOD riffs especially this one. Stole my friends cuz in’s cassette as soon as I get a physical copy back in 88?

[@C-Ro]

This is epic.

[@couchwarrior2449]

Fuckin A right!!!

@Ferenc Kiss-H. Nagyon helyesen cselekedtetek, nekem nem lenne ellenemre, ha minden zenekar ezzel indítana... :D Ez a dolog itt nekem súlyosabb mint az atomháború....:D

[@TheNoodlenose]

One night, Scott Ian wrote the heaviest riff in the past 4.5 billion years of the Earth's history. This was the turning point for the entire universe. Since that day noone has been able to write anything heavier. Chemists have recently found out that Scott Ian is the worlds heaviest element, so you will never see anything that exceeds this riff.

[@floundergearjam]

Scott Ian is the world's heaviest element. The other 118 elements are inconsequential.

[@mykelengieza7057]

Huge Anthrax fan for going on 40 years now...but I think the most metal, most sickest, most heaviest riff is LA FORTUNA from Carl Orlff's CARMINA BURANA(you should instantly recognize it)....but I digress....not trying to be a hater, MARCH OF SOD, but LF makes me ready to charge head first into war

[@SurvivorMetalMan]

The Heaviest Riff known to mankind, simple, elegant, destructive, face melting. Saw them play it live!

[@davepederson778]

My high school years were awesome! Thank you to SOD, Anthrax, Slayer, Metallica, and Exodus

[@llongone2]

...and Overkill, and Death Angel and Testament...it was a great time to be growing up. I now realize how lucky I was to be young when this came out.

I had a metal show on my college radio station MANY years ago, and this is the song I opened my show with every week.

[@tomconner5067]

Was it WTSR 91.3 FM, WSOU 89.5 FM WPRB 103.3 FM? I know it's probably none of those but they had some great shows, Randy "NOW!" Ellis was my employer, and had a dry and morbidly hillarious show on TSR...miss having that element, I'd love to witness a comeback

[@joeschmidl2874]

[@Dr.EdwardKevorkian]

I stop in on this GEM from time to time. S.O.D is the greatest Jam Band of ALL TIME ! 🤘🤘

[@hushson9411]

Funny story about this song: I work with my family at a mom & pops jewelry store. It was the Christmas rush and the showroom was packed. We had the radio on and my dad came down to help in the showroom and decided to turn the CD changer on which was usually filled with Christmas CDs (this is back in the 90’s). Little did he know that we had this album in the first slot because we were jamming it while setting up the cases that morning. THIS RIFF came on cranked up to 11. My dad said “that’s not Christmas music” while customers looked around confused. One of my favorite memories at work.

[@mahalmousito8079]

I remember back then I was maybe about 16 years old probably 17 not sure but I was in juvenile doing community service outside of juvie cleaning up and there was this one guy there it was just me and him he was a little bit older than me he told me all so you like metal because I was wearing a heavy metal shirt and he said have you heard of s.o.d. and I was like no so he had me over his headset but which was a Walkman back then and I just heard this and was amazed at the sound of heaviness how that started I went and bought the cassette and that just turned everything for me awesome memories till today now I just recently bought two s.o.d. shirts that I'm wearing happily because those were my years

[@daerth4423]

Hard to put into words how happy this riff makes me. It's effing magical.

Just an EPIC, EPIC bit of bass, guitar, and drum work. They way the drums move the riff to offbeats and then back again. Wow! I was instantly taken in.
