Riff wars!

Love that Bucket riff but the Rizzo one has that little something extra at the end.

Rizzo - 2
Bucket - 0

Rizzo 2
Buckethead 1

Rizzo adds flamenco with a generic Metallica MOP riff not exactly jetsetting in my opinion, but dude can play. I like the effects that Buckethead came up with better, not exactly sold on the riff. Almost a Beastie Boys fuzz and wah thing going on and I enjoyed the song better. Pretty close riff war if you ask me.

Love that Buckethead riff where he changes it up and makes his guitar sound strange, but the way that Rizzo song is set up with the interludes is great. I'll be checking out their other stuff for sure.

Rizzo - 3
Bucketlead - 1

Love Buckethead but I don't like that electronic sound in that track, kind of takes away from the riff. Don't know Rizzo but the hard crushing riff followed by Spanish guitar is a winner.

Rizzo - 4
Bucket - 1

That's a win for Rizzo then (isn't he the rat in "Muppet Christmas Carol"?)

Chula, you're up!
