My favorite Trivium riff of all time has to be the part right before the solo of Pull Harder on the Strings of Your Martyr.. it goes like this

I also like that breakdown in Departure right before everything goes crazy.. dont feel like typing the tabs again.

Falling to Grey riff from 0:30 to the first verse
Anyone got the tab for it?

entrance of the conflagration has it all. I also like the one from Detonation and Anthem

Intro riff for Falling to Grey

The ending riff to When All Light Dies, which is the theme for A View Of Burning Empires too, is definitely the best Trivium riff. When I first listened to the song I was fine until that riff kicked in and utterly shattered my mind with its epicness.

I don't know if they're my favorite, but here are some that I find exceptionally sweet:
Kirisute Gomen:
(this is the part that comes before the "I can see it in their eyes..." part).
All but the octave-chords are alternate-picked VERY fast.

Other riffs I particularly enjoy:
- Intro & verse riff of Pull Harder
- Verse riff of Becoming The Dragon
- Verse riff of Like Light To Flies
- many many other riffs =)

i say the riff in down from the sky when the deep singing dudes like "they push us through the machines valves"
