dude, without drums or vocals, do you want me to just sit around for 30 seconds while the guitarist isnt doing anything inbetween riffs? Or when the guitar is only playing one dumb riff for a minute and a half straight because the vocals are what was meant to sound good at that part of the song? I can play you an entire song but its going to be boring without an actual band. "Hey man all you did was just play some riffs, those are just the easy parts! (lol) you forgot to repeat that riff 8 times followed by another riff repeated 8 times followed by the first riff repeated over another 8 times, poser"

A lot of tool songs especially, there's long sections where the guitarist is doing nothing but adding little nuances here and there every 10 seconds or so; I'm not going to sit and play you a 7 minute long song, that's boring as fuck..
