Without question the best breakdown in the fucking world, EVER.

[JMarz]

1:24-2:10 (actual breakdown starts at 1:48, but the buildup is way worth it )

EDIT: Realized this isn't a breakdown, but is still the best riff ever.

The breakdown never came.

 

[Ermz]

+1

 

[smy1]

Yea. What breakdown??

 

[JMarz]

1:48, how is that not a breakdown? 0_o

Does it have to be slower? Hahaha.

 

[K Odell]

Yea def not a breakdown.

 

[JMarz]

Fuck you guys and your hardcore ;[

It's still 140% badass

 

[Terminus]

The best breakdowns are when the singer yells "BREAK-DOWN!!!' right before they goes into the breakdownz.

 

[Ermz]

It's only a breakdown if the dissonance is so low only your asshairs can groove to it.

 

[GarethSE]

wrong

the indisputable king of breakdowns is

1:53
doing a sex face right now

Sigged.

Pssh, the only breakdowns that count are the one's cira Benediction and early 90's Napalm Death where it was the "circle pit" riff. Which was just the mid section where the guitars and drums grooved even better with the thrashy riffs. Of course, I'm just an old school kind of guy.

 

[Mago]

Even if he would have screamed "BREAKDOWN" before it, this wouldnt be a breakdown

 

[GarethSE]

in all fairness i can see why jesse's percieving it as a breakdown
if there was an actual break there for a moment and if the drums grooved out rather than just hammering away, there'd be a potentially cool breakdown there

Badass as fuck, anybody else think this kind of sounds like Slipknot? The first few riffs, anyway

Not at all. The Acacia Strain are kind of in their own territory. Unfortunately an area a lot of guys seem to try to replicate and can't pull it off just right.

The king of breakdowns to me is Pantera. Listen to the breakdown in "5 Minutes Alone" and you can hear pretty much any Killswitch breakdown from Alive or Just Breathing. It holds that swing that all those breakdowns have.

Everything from Bury Your Dead is awesome.

I love all that is The Dead Walk album, I wish Acacia's new one wasn't so 1 dimensional and boring.

Negative, this is the best breakdown ever (1:39)



Annnd without a doubt the best lyrics:

Yo Logan, botgun that sheer!
Get the vibe goin' right in here.
Gotta write a jam. The one everyone wants to hear.

Crashing Flowing Swirling, Right from the Start
Except not with those lyrics, we already have a song about a shark!!!

OH SHIT! It's the death metal riff! I better sing about some face ripping, cat-raping bullshit!

Sit in my room and write about some brutal shit I know I'm never gonna do!

We gotta make it Thrash!
And make 'em bang their heads real fast
Make sure this song is really FUCKING STUPID!!!!

I think my vocals are pretty good so far, and I'm kinda ripped, so for this next part I'm gonna riff with the guitar.

2 minutes long, and fast as fuck!
This song is sick, but missing one part
OH yeah what is that?

We gotta get the kids, moving, circle pitting, stage-diving and singing along.
I've got a really original idea, of how I think we should end this song!

END THIS SONG............WITH A FUCKING BREAKDOWN!!!

Joe
