Another obscure one:

CRYPTIC LORD (US) - Kiss of Judas from the '90 Demo (at 02:00 approx.) they're ripping off ANGEL WITCH's Angel of Death.

Maybe already said, but first riff of Nevermore - I Am the Dog is exactly like Paradox - Death, Screaming and Pain

Haha, good call.

I've never liked Nevermore.

I was listening to the Corroseum Compilation Companion before.

While not a riff rip-off Missio - Eljon A Szabadulas has a very similar synth intro as Pretty Maids - Future World.

Syren - Fight or Fall has a bit of the famous eye of the tiger riff going on.

NECRONOMICON - Death toll at approx 4 min ripping off the first riff of TOKYO BLADE's Warrior of the rising sun. Exact same riff. Shame!

SODOM "Agent Orange" & SACRED REICH "Death squad" share (nearly) the same verse-riff.

That's a classic one and can't be a coincidence since SR wrote that track 2 years before SODOM and they weren't any random unknown local band.
