Sections of hardcore / metalcore / deathcore songs which are rhythmically [appropriate] for most forms of [hardcore dancing] (mosh), but not [appropriate] for two-stepping. In order to be rhythmically appropriate, the music must conform to the following requirements: 1. Tempo: Breakdowns are characterized by tempos in the 65 bpm - 70 bpm range, but also spanning from 50 bpm (double breakdown), to 90 bpm (fast breakdown / stomp breakdown). 2. Content: Breakdowns are further characterized by strong [emphasis] on rhythm, snares on the 2nd & 4th quarter notes, cymbals on either eighth notes or quarter notes, and kick drum patterns which accent the often staccato guitar playing. Many modifications to this formula can be made (displaced snares, melody), but these modifications tend to detract from the maximum impact of the breakdown. Because these two requirements must be satisfied, entire songs can be breakdowns, and do not need to contain any fast parts. As well, many slow sections of songs of these genres are not breakdowns, because they do not meet the content requirements.
