High on Fire, having mentioned them, do some great riffing.
Electric Wizard still dominates the riff department with Dopethrone though.

Yeah, I've listened to the Sword. They aren't my favorite, but I certainly respect what they do. High on Fire is fantastic when it comes to sludgey riffs. My favorite Band is Queens of the Stone Age, and while not metal, they certainly do have some good guitar parts. I haven't listened to Electric Wizard, although I have heard the name.
In general I'm a big fan of classic metal riffs. Listen to the Bass intro of Space Truckin' by Deep Purple, or Sweet Leaf by Black Sabbath.
As I said, I love pretty much all types of metal, from that which can barely be called more than hard rock to this (
