The riff in Rebirth of the Flesh gives the song a monstrous start before slowly shifting to the background. It gives way to a solo with the riff getting picked up by the bass. How the studio track was never released, I'll never know.

This one was impressive as hell as well. Sticks in your head forever.

What, no-one's picked When You Were Mine yet? That's completely crazy to me, easily my favourite riff he's ever done. I guess it's not exactly something you would naturally think of if you're looking for driving rock riffs, but there's something so raw and simple about it that it really tugs at my heartstrings.
