Slash knows a thing or two about guitar riffs – so when he declares one to be the heaviest riff of all time, it’s worth paying attention.
His pick? Black Sabbath’s “Sabbath Bloody Sabbath”, declaring “There’s just nothing that’s ever come out that’s heavier than that.”
He told radio host Matt Pinfield that the first two Sabbath records “had the biggest impact on me”.
