That's why I like the Jana EP version of Wardance so much. He throws in some extra saucy dissonance in there and it just makes the song so much better.
I think recent riffery such as Dark Forces and Total Invasion are about as far away from the classic Geordie style as you can get and to me it's not a progression.

I think I noticed it in Wardance particularly, a sweet smattering of
mini-flourishes, but have you to listen hard to catch them. Maybe that's
how he gets his kicks - and stops himself from going mad, playing a 24-year old
song exactly the same every single time.
