This riff is from System of a Down's Innvervision. I'm having trouble playing this because the G, B, and the E string keep ringing. What would be the best way to finger these chords? Thanks for your help!

You could barr them with your index finger, raising the base of the finger enough to mute the strings called for. You could fret the three strings with your thumb and mute the others with your index finger.
