Favourite JP riff from ADTOE?

Breaking All Illusions - 3:42

Holy schmoly! First time I gave the album a spin, I was expecting BAI to have the same lightness of Learning to Live. And then, THAT riff started playing.  :o It was so powah i just had to hump my desk viciously.

Gonna be in the minority but the opening riff to BMU;BMD.  It's so heavy and just can't help but nod my head with it (love how the acoustic drums come in as well right there).   :metal

The whole album is full of them, beautiful, singable riffs everywhere!
If I have  to pick one it's probably the BAI intro.

Lost Not Forgotten 1:42. The chugging and piano compliment each other nicely.

There is a bit during the instrumental break of BAI that last for a few seconds sandwiched between a whole bunch of other "mini-riffs" that is just amazing - sounds like synth and slap bass or something. I don't have speakers on this laptop otherwise I'd post the time. Will edit later.

In no particular order my favorites are:

Bridges In the Sky
2:05 - 2:19 

That's my favorite variation to the main theme in that song, but they are all pretty bad ass riffs.

This Is the Life
Opening riff that is repeated throughout the song, so peaceful.. I love when Jordan echos it on the keys before the first verse too.

Outcry
0:59 - 1:42

The main riff that is repeated throughout the song a bunch of times. It's those "octave power chord" (I'm unsure they have a name, they're just two of the same notes played an octave lower/higher in a power chord shape) slides he does that are so awesome in this riff.

Gonna be in the minority but the opening riff to BMU;BMD.  It's so heavy and just can't help but nod my head with it (love how the acoustic drums come in as well right there).   :metal

Yeah man, I'm with you on this one! It's weird, when I first gave the album a listen, one of my critiques was how all the riffs felt forgettable and none were passionately heavy like a bunch of riffs in Honor Thy Father or The Mirror or...etc. but suddenly, and once I'd actually processed the music, all the riffs sounded flippin' amazing :O
