11. Farther Than The Sun
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rkFI4wil1QA Sometimes the most effective and memorable riffs are the most simplistic - AC/DC's Brian Johnson said as much when his band returned to try and write after eight years for 2008's Black Ice. Here Tremonti shows his awareness of bands like Meshuggah and Periphery, proving even their rougher sound can have a place alongside Myles' angelic tenor
vocal range. Spawning from the short-lived 'djent' movement in metal; a 'genre' that was so-named after the hearty chug guitars make that's later imitated when talking to people - y'know, the whole "Djun djun djun" thing? Farther Than The Sun is a fuzz-soaked slammer of a riff that's still the downright heaviest thing the band have ever put out.
