What Band invented the breakdown?

[ipunchcouches]

I was just thinkin about this today, and was wonderin wut all of u guys thought. I would say the first band to do it would probably have been Pantera. Dime referred to the breakdown part in "This Love" as the "ass-stomp riff."


So what band do u guys think invented it?

[xJesusFreakx]

Someone posted a thread about this before and claimed that some 80s pop band had the first breakdown.

[punkypopgirl]

this band didn't invent the breakdown but im in a contest. please watch the video or fast forward so the last few seconds play. PLEASE! i will win if i get the most plays!

see, there, the 'x' was not needed because you already had lowercase letters in the post. gotta learn the rules if you're gonna play the game.

I don't know who invented it per say but I can tell you that Evergreen Terrace and Poison The Well brought it to mainstream metalcore/hardcore- Opposite Of December inspired EVERYONE to use them, in a way brand new to everyone.

[dpatrickguy]

i think it depends on what you classify as a breakdown

[Uwe Blab]

Tina Turner

[amour faux]

Mama Boucher invented the breakdown.

[Yellowcard2006]

Radiohead right?

[Stormtrooper]

No one band invented the breakdown. It was just a progression of music that turned it into what it generally is today. If you keep on going back it all depends on what you view your breakdown as.

[xJesusFreakx]

Led Zeplin. And I'm being totally serious.

Pantera's "Domination" also has a killer breakdown. Most people say they invented the breakdown but I'm not entirely sure.

exactly.
some people are referring to the "hardcore" beakdown (which can be traced back to Death) and some are referring to a traditional musical breakdown.

The screaming in the first album is so good. No joke, the invented the new aged metalcore genre. Try and argue with me. TRY IT.

Nah I won't, because I agree. I loved Dear Love: A Beautiful Discord but it went downhill from there.
Hands down that is their best album thus far.

haha, I was joking about them being innovative by the way, if you didnt know. I truly do like Dear Love though. Mike's high screams are so good. Compare that with Roots and...wait...you can't. The screaming in Roots isn't nearly as good and that is being generous. I did like a few songs off Plagues though, not enough to replace Dear Love. Reptar is great

Prove it.
Listen to Stairway To Heaven in its entirety. Granted they may not have invented the breakdown, but that's the best, earliest breakdown I could scrounge up.

[Mikeypea]

As far as hardcore goes, an early form of the breakdown was used by bands like 7 seconds (see Young 'Til I Die, 1884), but it was a more upbeat tempo change for circle pits. By the end of the 80s, the hardcore breakdown had developed into a heavier tempo change, exhibited by bands like the Gorilla Biscuits (see Big Mouth, 1988) and Judge (see Fed Up, 1988). In metal, I think the breakdown began appearing in the late 80s/early 90s with bands like Anthrax (check out Imitation of Life, 1986), Gwar (see Love Surgery, 1990), and Pantera (see Domination, 1990). These examples, however, are only based on my first hand knowledge, and I'm sure there are earlier examples.
