Breakdowns

I absolutely love breakdowns. For those of you that don't know what a breakdown in music is, or don't know much about them... It is when the song slows down it's tempo, usually in half time, then there are all sorts of various things they do. Some bands switch from screaming to singing, those are called metalcore bands, while other bands just go from hardcore guitar and drums to more simple and easyer listing music and sometimes keep screaming, or they will sing or scream the same sentence or words over again so in live concerts it gives the crowed a chance to sing along. Breakdowns make a song really catchy and as far as I'm concerned better structured.

I find that most modern metal bands have breakdowns. I don't really listen to much metal unless it has breakdowns in it.

Check out some of these bands for their breakdowns and maybe in a future blog I will put some specific songs that have good breakdows...check these bands out!
