Hard to disagree with those. I always liked this as something outside of the usual rock acts https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sbscx0S3jcY

AC/DC's best riff is 'Whole Lotta Rosie,' so there.

I preferred the riffs in This Charming Man over How Soon is Now

How Soon Is Now is by far the best Smiths songs but it's not even remotely a great riff.

At least that terrible White Stripes song didn't make it.
