Default An electric riff called Dragon. How can it sound more like a Dragon?

Hey guys, so glad to be a part of this forum! I wanted to kick things off by sharing an electric guitar riff I've had cooking for a while now. I'm going for a heavy, wavy feel. Do you guys think this could stand alone as a drone-riff throughout an entire song?

Curious to hear your feedback, thanks!

Welcome.

I might be the wrong guy to ask but I appreciate your being at it and curiosity. I had fun looking at the stuff you've posted!

It sounds good for the style but my tastes have changed with age so for all my love of guitar, I'm after it being a less prominent part of a tune.

I look forward to knowing where you'll go with it or a whole song.

Again, welcome!

It might be a nice intro and serve as a turn-around at the end of verses.

Thanks for the headline, and thanks for the feedback! I agree it would be a great intro. I love what you said about it fitting as a turnaround into the verse. I'm going to try that out!
