What is that bollox about a breakdown being emotional?! As though the rest of the song isn't emotional.

Maybe someone could include a few sound samples of a breakdown. I would do it myself, but I don't know that much about hardcore or metalcore. Dysfunktion 16:17, 24 December 2005 (UTC) reply

Since when is a breakdown in 4/4 time? That's a pretty ridiculous claim; I listen to a lot of hardcore and metalcore and have NEVER heard a 4/4 breakdown. Ridethefire3211 02:45, 4 January 2006 (UTC) reply

I'm assuming you're not very musical? nearly EVERY breakdown is in 4/4, i'm talking 99.9999%, what time signature do you think breakdowns are usually played in?
Holy shit. DUN DIGGA DUN DUN must be in 21 8 time. Is this guy shitting me? The only non 4/4 breakdown I've ever heard was by a local band. This stuff is SIMPLE. Gatesofawesome! 01:58, 9 August 2006 (UTC) reply

Pointless page

Since the majority of this article refers to metal/metalcore, does it warrant a page of its own..? And are metal/punk genre's the only forms of music with a breakdown..? The title - Breakdown(core) is a bit misleading as it doesn't classify as a genre (at least I've never heard it used). Probably best left on the metalcore page.

The breakdown article is not left on the metalcore page because although the metalcore genre is fairly broad, it isn't the only genre where you will find breakdowns. Best to keep the two articles separate. User:hxc ryan

Yeah, there's some in metal as well and with the increasing of fusion genres it won't be long until there are some in indie. :-P XdiabolicalX 17:03, 25 October 2006 (UTC) reply

I know. That'll be the day. There's a well-known local metalcore band in my city who got away with putting a hip-hop beat in one of their songs. It was confusing, but that's how much genres are beginning to fuse, whether you notice it or not. --hXc ryan-- 15:06, 31 January 2007 (UTC) reply

Breakdowns are part of metalcore?

Well I never! Sorry to offend any metal heads, but breakdowns are more commonly known in popular culture in trance or dance music. I'm surprised that this article hasn't been edited with inclusion of such music. The article needs a rather detailed edit to incorporate this fact, which will innevitably alter the metal-related opening sentence. 211.28.92.58 07:10, 28 October 2006 (UTC)Encise reply
