It's got more than one killer riff in there. There's a whole bunch.
And about your riffs, I'm not really fond of all of them. But most of them are stupendusly marvelous to the ear.
Like which?
Well of course there's the purely awsome, Eternal Nightmare. The Obituary one was kick ass as well (it was Obituary, right?). The fifth riff was cool, then Spiritual Healing. I liked the next one, but I can't really recognize who it is, it's death right? The Kreator one was totally awsome. And finally I love the Whiplash one!

I actually don't think I have an Obituary one up there. Of course I think there are some absolutely crushing Obituary riffs, but as I said previously, I got a little tired of recording samples. Which riff did you think was Obituary?

all the cliche riffs like crazy train I love.
the light that blinds-shadows fall
96 quite bitter beings-CKY
your sweet 666-HIM
puppets
not really a riff but the whole fade to black intro
suffocating under words of sorrow
bodom-hate me
bodom-needled 24/7
dragonforce-valley of the damned
only for the weak-inflames
ride the lightning
this list kinda made me realize trivium isnt a very riffy band

The killer "ASPHYX" link. It sounded a bit like Obituary.

Oh, that's the band "Asphyx". That's the only one I named after the band, . That specific riff is from the slowdown part in "Serenade in Lead" off their second album, Last One on Earth. Their first album is total Slowly We Rot worship, but Last One On Earth has some awesome slow riffs thrown in the mix, too.

Cool, I'll check them out.
Iced Earth have also some pretty riffs too.
The Chorus riff of "Stormrider" so cool!!
The whole riff of "Mystical End" is beautifull.
The riff of "Desert Rain" goes awsomly with the vocals.
The "Dante's Inferno" riff (2:23) is orgasmic.
The riff of "Life And Death" (1:50) is a totale classic Iced Earth riff.
I'm too lazy to put all those on putfile. But they all kick ass.
Off Topic: Actually, I like Gene Adams's vocals, in blends well with Iced Earth.
