as many as the band likes, as long as it done tastefully. i will agree though, i think 3 is a good number.

Hardcore is better because it goes on first and cleans the hair

METAL IS BETTER BECAUSE IT LEAVES THE HAIR SILKY AND SMOOTH!

OH REALLY FOOL? REALLY!

STOP LOOKING AT ME SWAN!!!

hardcore whitens your teeth while you chew, but metal has a 52" screen and is portable.

Breakdowns are the shittiest thing in music. Mindless, one handed "so we look cool" jerk off fest.

All the good breakdowns have been done so zero.

Bury your dead.

post by pelletguncumshot at Mar 17,2005 10:20pm

I think unless your meshuggah 2 breakdowns is good.
If your meshuggah ...just please stop...please!!

if a song is just one breakdown after another, it gets very boring. but if they are used sparingly, and put in the right places in certain songs, they can be very effective.
personally i could give less than a shit about things like that, i just listen to what sounds good to me.

P.S. BLAST BEATZ RUUUUULLLLLEEEE DEATH METAL KICKS HARDCORE'S ASSES CHRIS BARNES COULD BEAT UP ALL HARDCORE KIDZ NIGGA

well you are breaking it down,
I'll be jumping the fuck up!

examples of the breakdown

post by largefreakatzero at Mar 18,2005 8:11am

It's all about the contrast -- intense speed to slow sludge and back again. Contrasting the speed of riffs makes them seem more catchy and more brutal. I hate too many dancy-type breakdowns, I try to minimize that in our writing. Plus, blast-beats give me a stiffy.

WAY OVER RATED

post by Paulll at Mar 18,2005 1:17pm

Devourment isnt overrated. the bands who rip them off are.

at Mar 18,2005 1:22pm

I am quite partial to the way Suffocation breaks their songs down, super technical to super "kill the person next to you" breakdows, then right back to being technical again.

breakdowns == good, so long as they're done tastefully and compliment the music

post by poops mcgee at Mar 18,2005 2:30pm

marty ad prolly has the most in every song that I can think of
