Yeah, I've started another "Best Of..." thread. Bite me. . Except obviously repliers in this thread will be limited to the people who listen to the kind of music with breakdowns. Post your favourite breakdowns, preferably with a video. The links to mine are in the song titles. No particular order, mine are: The Human Abstract - Mea Culpa (1:08 - 1:32) Trivium - Pull Harder on the Strings of Your Martyr (2:22 - 2:45) August Burns Red - Your Little Suburbia Is In Ruins (3:17 - 3:44) As I Lay Dying - Through Struggle (same video as ABR, but 3:50 - 4:07) Bring Me The Horizon - (I Used to Make Out With) Medusa (3:50 - 4:25) There's a heap more (particularly Unearth), but I honestly can't be bothered going through the songs and getting specific times for them at the moment.
My personal favorite breakdown is in Lamb of God's song "Laid to Waist" ( 2:11) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fOWB6rmSd4I
Yeah, that was one of the particular videos I wanted to post, but as I said, I'm lazy . Unearth ftw. I also agree with Will, A Day to Remember have some pretty decent breakdowns as well. Somehow I see this thread only being posted in by the same few people, lol.
+1 for Through Struggle and Endless. And yeah I was pretty surprised to hear good breakdowns in ADtR songs. They got a little bit of everything.
I'd have to think about some but the one that jumps to mind is Saosin's They Perch On Their Stilts, Pointing and Daring Me To Break Custom. http://youtube.com/watch?v=YNVnOhAtP-I
Lulz. @mellow : Yeah, you aren't able to edit until you reach 50 posts (I think). Don't take my word on the actual post count though.
My favorite would have to be Parkway Drive - Romance is Dead http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DScZ42PPIyo 1:50 Bless the Fall - Rise up http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nDwF8d1HiDU 1:45 Also here are some A Day to Remember breakdowns, conveniently wrapped up into one youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7uxxHRK3ZiA
