Greatist Guitar riff of the last decade

[computerbitz]

Muse have just had Plug in Baby chosen as the greatest riff of the last 10 years, am not sure if i agree or not never liked them when they first turned up but they grew on me over time

Well outside the last decade but its got to be Kirk Hamett on Metallica's One.

White Stripes - Seven Nation Army?

For starters....

This for last ten years. Definately.

I do rather like NOFX's 'Theme from a NOFX album' for the guitar in the break, although technically its not a riff...

 

[cornholio's RC200]

Technically not a guitar riff but a bass riff. Still bloody good though

Staying on topic "of the last 10 years".

7-Nation Army, definitely - though it's far from my favourite White Stripes track. Jack White is our time's greatest musical talent.

Others...

QOTSA "Noone Knows" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s88r_q7oufE&ob=av2e

The Hives "Hate to say I told you so". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MCQ7VLoY7bQ (Power chord sequence as riff)

And if you want to see some old-style guitaring, Jack White again....

7 Nation Army? (Can't see link due to territory copyright limitations)

Technically a guitar riff run through an octaver pedal. Which is why it is so iconic.
