The Breakdown Thread

I pretty much enjoy listening The Fall Of Troy, Dance Gavin Dance, Glasgow Drive, Periphery, Textures, etc. "proggy" breakdowns, but it's a shame how 90% of today's generic-core bands don't know how to compose and use breaks properly. When I hear some Asking Alexandria or Attack Attack songs I just think that these guys have no composing talent at all! Because it is much easier to play a single 0-0-0 powerchord with constant headbanging, pretending that it sounds br00tal, than to create a heavy and tasty riff. Moreover, they put these shitty breaks all over the song! I don't get how is it possible to call "music" something you can play with your right hand alone =)

That's so funny! It's almost like NO ONE has ever posted a picture like that before, or ever has tried to do anything like that in the history of the internet, you're so clever!

why the fuck are you even in here? This thread is about posting your favorite breakdowns and discussing them, not to bag on the genre of music we listen to. Are you trying to proove something or what? your not going to change our minds on what music we listen too so get the fuck out. You dont see me going into the RAP thread and talking shit about how it sucks.

I don't know how much more clear I can get about this.

I. Stated. My. Opinion.

I don't give a shit about what you did/didn't do in another thread, I'm not trying to change anyone's mind, and I'm not trying to prove anything. All of this could have been avoided, but all of you morons keep bringing back the argument. If you don't wanna hear what I have to say, stop provoking responses.

Stop being little girls, I don't like breakdowns or the music you listen to, but you do. End.

There is a difference between an opinion and just being an asshole... you were being an asshole

Fuck breakdowns.

Both of those bands suck, breakdowns still suck, metalcore/hardcore/grindcore still sucks. You can't base your entire opinion on a song about the whole 20 seconds it slows down so the sped kids in the ninja pit with fist sized gauges and fitted hats can swing their arms around. How about other 3-4 minutes of the song, that doesn't matter right? As long as there's that siqqqq breakdown, right d00d?

Dude I was gonna write a big long fucking post to respond to this, but I just realized I can completely shorten it. You really fucking annoy me, and I hate your attitude. that first song sounded like someone trying to fucking arc weld my eardrums open, the second one didn't impress me. I don't give a shit about breakdowns and musical complexity, they're fucking annoying and it's a completely overblown topic for something that's unimpressive and offensive to my ears. I guess I'm an "idiot on the bandwagon" for saying that? Frankly, I do not give a shit about your subjective opinion on my taste in music, just because I don't agree with the tunes you like doesn't mean I'm wrong, and it doesn't mean I'm right. I stated my opinion, I still hate breakdowns, and kids that won't shut the fuck up about them still piss me off.

Did I deny that anywhere? This once again goes to back to provoking a response out of me, I said straight up, fuck breakdowns, and that was it, then once again, that I agreed with a that kid Jake, anything after that was a provoked response about my opinion.

i agree with evan. i respect some breakdowns, but in most songs theyre the part of the song with the least amount of talent. breakdowns are alright in some cases, but not the best part of the song.
whatever happened to the days a good fucking solo? real talent

I don't care what you think of me, I proved you wrong and my points been made, this hasn't been a personal issue. I know you were just stating your opinion, but what for? To bash on some scene scooter kid you don't know online? Just chill out and back off with the "fuck what you think" mentality.

And Jacob I think you misunderstood what I was saying; the music that accompanies rap is not always complex but with lyrics it can be great music.
