There's some awesome riffs missing from that list, some of my faves:
I'm Broken by Pantera (imo the best guitar riff ever)
Combustion by Meshuggah
Peace Sells by Megadeth
Bullet in the Head by RATM
Blood and Thunder by Mastodon
Just a few that come to mind...

Some great songs there, but really? No house of the rising sun? No Dream Theatre? No Pantera? Why is Voodoo Chile languishing at #21? Crazy.
It's all personal taste etc etc but to me the most glaring and obvious omission is BOCs Don't Fear The Reaper. A moment's thought would bring forth loads more. Is Boston's More Than A Feeling in there before I go back and check? Y'know, the one that sounds exactly like Nirvana's Teen Spirit but about 17 years earler lol.

I was thinking peace slls today as one that should have been in there somewhere.
But tbh planet rock scarcely places anything heavier than Metallica so I wasn't surprised with pantera and the like not being on the list.
Is there a specific DJ that plays heavier stuff on there?

Yeah it does sound like that, never thought of that don't have any Boston albumns, but recall it in my vast drunken memory. Good on you for noticing that.

Ah, I thought it was the greatest guitar riffs but just realised it's actually the greatest rock riffs. That's what I get for skim reading

Clearly a list voted for by people who have never touched a guitar in their lives, or know what a riff is. Some of them aren't even the best riffs by the bands featured imho. Great track, but Comfortably Numb doesn't even have a riff in it.
No Reaper or Fear of the Dark?
And the best Rush riff is Spirit and not Limelight, Bastille Day or 2112?
And no Montrose (Rock Candy, Space Station No 5) or Boston?
And no Muse?
And, most criminal of all, no Thin Lizzy???
Seems like they had a limited list to choose from.

Shall we do our own list and compare?
I doubt anyone voting has even heard of Dream Theater never mind heard anything by them.
