[Baby for Pree]

Elf Power - "We Dream in Sound"

[jake_rm]

Slayer - Reign In Blood

[the cinema]

The Deceomberists - The Wanting Comes In Waves (Repaid)

FUCKing epic

[kearn1tm]

Slayer - Reign in Blood

[McIrish]

New Found Glory - Such a Mess

[kearn1tm]

I'd probably go with Slayer - Reign in Blood

[BBScience]

Mogwai - Two Rights Make One Wrong

Its not really a breakdown, but it serves the same purpose.

[jay_klinkhammer]

There is a lot of possible choices but I'd probably choose:

Slayer - Reign in Blood

[jelloseinfeld]

i'm not sure what constitutes a breakdown, but the end of "Shake It Out" by Manchester Orchestra and "You Won't Know" by Brand New.

[Chromefox]

Paranoid Android?

I don't actually know what a breakdown is. I was never that brutal.

[inthemidst]

Edison Glass - "When All We Have Is Taken/Comfort"

[theguy77]

i really love the 2 minute instrumental in death cab's "we looked like giants."

[SomedayTheFire]

i really love the 2 minute instrumental in death cab's "we looked like giants."
Yes. Love that part.

[ZachMadeMeOdd]

Yeah, it's looking like Slayer.

[mattmatumbo]

I think Slayer may win whatever this contest is.

Actually, this thread is pretty funny, i'm subscribing hoping that Slayer will win.

[crypticv24]

The end of "Oh What A Party It Will Be" by Looking Glass Wars is fucking awesome.

[ThisIsNotDan]

Blood - Reign In Slayer

[c_rob2700]

I'll be extremely generic, generic fanboy guy and say that MO's "Shake It Out" and "Colly Strings" both have really incredible endings. No care

Also, this Los Campesinos! song has some really awsome "moments"

Slipknot - Ain't No Mountain High Enough

[xJesusFreakx]

Slayer's "Reign in Blood" is pretty sick.

[blebbio]

Slayer are indie rock?

[meroki22]

Although the idea of an "indie breakdown" is a bit ridiculous I'd have to go with Paranoid Android. Shits nuts.

[lewisuk]

a breakdown's pretty much where everything "breaks down" into a rhythmic pattern. every instrument locks in with each other...

1:22 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GALmUe-jPHo

probably a vague explanation.
