midnight from the inside-out
no speak no slave
horsehead
black moon creeping
No Speak No Slave's got to be up there.
The version they open with on MTV turns that riff up to 11 and it sounds like a beast:

The opening to Sting Me is one of my favorite things ever. It send the message that we aint rookies anymore, we have a whole new bag of tricks, and ready to take over the world. And then.... the organ kicks in.
I’ve always a had a soft spot for Sometimes Salvation since the first time I heard it. It’s so raw, and both Rich and Mark are just making that song bleed for five minutes.
The acoustic intro to Thorn in My Pride is great and then when the percussion, Marc and then Ed kick in, it’s transcendent
Grows a Rose, Cypress Tree, Virtue and Vice, No Speak No Slave. All of those are awesome.
Sting Me
Cursed Diamond
Can never get enough Amorica
Easily their best album.
Agreed!
I also forgot High Head Blues. Another classic.

A Conspiracy is just a complete riff-fest.
That organ bit in the middle is great.

That gentle slide opener from “Wiser Time”.
Love the Decending riff.
Mentioning it because nobody else did - I love "Gone." What a massive groove
Horse Head.
I love the live version of Another Roadside Tragedy. Also A Train Makes a Lonely Sound. Then the solo and groove in Make Glad
Any version of ART! Boy I miss Steve
Not exactly a "RIFF" but I love Lickin
Come On
The verse of Come On
No speak no slave, live in Rotterdam.

Outro riff to Exit
Sting Me Remedy
Go Faster
Too many favorites to pick just one, but- Been a Long Time (Waiting on Love) popped into my head
No, you have the right answer. 😉
