A good example of a "chill riff" would be 1:28 of the song Deprived on our Myspace profile.

[1/2]Ha cool man, ya well I love between the buried and me, but I dont know about going clean, and slowing it down in between a song. I have a certain structure that I have when I'm making the songs, and I try to balance it out. If you notice, in the songs on my profile and the ones on our myspace www.myspace.com/wcdf
I always make sure to put a few measures of "chill riffs" that aren't crazy and have a nice groove to them. I don't beleive in always having fast techinical riffs, it's just like someone giving a speech that talks 20000 words a minuet, you listen and you're like "Wow, this person talks really fast" but you'll lose the listener if its nothing but intense guitar/vox/and drums, just like the speaker will eventually lose his listeners

.[2/2] So like I said, I'll try and add "chill" parts to the song where you can give your ears a break and get in touch with the feel of the riff, it makes the listener connect to the music and be able to relax a bit. Idk, that's what i've learned after making songs after songs. But Idk about going clean for a few verses, we'd lose a lot of fans haha, and I wouldn't want to do clean parts with this band. I might actually start a prog band kinda like BTBAM and Dream Theater Esque type stuff. Idk, still in the works though. Ha, sorry the comments so long.

I remember saying something like "I feel a bit lightheaded; maybe you should drive..." And suddenly there was a terrible roar all around us and the sky was full of what looked like huge bats, all swooping and screeching and diving around the car, which was going about a hundred miles an hour with the top down to Las Vegas. And a voice was screaming: "Holy Jesus! What are these goddamn animals?"
