Hi GMC:er !
I just discovered the wonderful world of Drop D riffing !  I'm looking for some riffs or song in Drop D, hard rock or metal style. At the moment I know All Nightmare Long - Metallica, it's perfect, thats the kind of difficulty I'm looking for. Laid To Rest - Lamb Of God, A little bit too hard, but I'll learn it one day. Do you have any idea of song and riff like these ? What are your favorite Drop D song ? |

Also check out Asking Alexandria, I think a fair amount of their stuff is in Drop D as well.
If you don't really like their stuff try Alter Bridge, I think they're in Drop D also
