Name me one Nine riff. Oh wait - ya can't

You're asking people who have heard the album 1-3 times to identify a riff they heard like 3 years ago

I thought Adams song riff was on California 

Close, but No Cigar.

Coincidentally, No Cigar is a great Modest Mouse song

It's not a good lyric if you're 25 either.

Never said it was good lyrics.

If Matt was shouting at people saying they have metalers with their awful pussy hair bands and then 'blame it on their youth'

I might be on board with that. 

Mark & Tom just made the youth stuff better in 01, I'm sorry.

I mean if you're talking about a simple catchy Tom type riffs, then no, there aren't any. He wasn't the guitarist on that album. And there weren't really any on Neighborhoods either, for that matter.

I like the Heaven riff though holmes

I mean yeah those are good, but they were all written way before Neighborhoods come to think of it. But yeah, Skiba and Mark aren't writing those. Not sure why or how anyone would expect them to.

Don't forget This is Home. Still the best tune on Neighborhoods by far

Matts not a huge riff guy like Tom so stands to reason when he’s writing more in his style we won’t be hearing lots of catchy riffs. When he tries to emulate Tom too much we get 5 variations of Adams song like on Cali.

Highly doubtful he wrote any of those riffs tbh

I love the guitar in On Some Emo Shit, right after the line,  "Like nights I still dream about."

Nine is so good. Put it on this morning after all this chatter. Fucking love it.

Can't believe you forgot Ghost on the Dance Floor! That's the most catchy one of them all from that album I think

I don’t wanna start the “what counts as a riff” argument again but I don’t think of it as one.

But you count snake charmer? That’s just a couple power chords! Cmon Kay!

Plus Snake Charmer is just a recycled riff from The Machine (the bonus alt mix of Start The Machine).

Just gave it a listen - I remember that tune because the word BODEGA always stuck out haha. Wasn't too bad at all
