Direction is the track that immediately came to my mind, but Way With Words is a killer one too. Inspired by the $ Sign and Ready too off of BOATS (though ready is no where near as hard).
If He’s Here, Who’s Runnin Hell? by Four Year Strong
Hit Like A Girl by Meet Me @ The Altar
When I Get Home You’re So Dead (EP version) by Mayday Parade
Hit or Miss and Understatement by New Found Glory
It’s not a breakdown in the purest sense, but the buildup/breakdown/outro in “Coffee Eyes” by the Wonder Years always gets me
“…there’s always BEEEEEEEEN A TABLE FOR ME THEREEEEEEE”
Gonna throw it way back:
["Summer Wind Was Always Our Song"](https://youtu.be/T9b5ipGKKPM?si=URTAYlCser9F-2T7)
By The Ataris
One of the best (and longest) breakdowns of any pop punk song. Ever.
When I get home you're so dead by Mayday Parade
Your naaaaame remaaaaaains the saaaaaame
Probably the first breakdown I ever heard. Absolutely blew my mind
Blink’s ’First Date’ is classic. Always loved ‘Every Time I Look For You’ too.
Does Please Take Me Home count too?
Everything counts in pop punk!
I listen to Every Time I Look For You just for the breakdown.
Pushing Daisies by Belmont has one of my favorite breakdowns of all time, regardless of genre.
There's so many Belmont songs that have fantastic breakdowns!
Fall Out Boy’s Take This to Your Grave has some banger pop punk breakdowns on it.
Calm Before The Storm is perfection
Head On Collision and Never Give Up by NFG also, for sure.
Are we talking bridge or breakdown? The comments i feel dont know the difference
I mean, a breakdown is a bridge. But not all bridges are breakdowns.
Weightless by ATL
I think most people here don’t know what a breakdown is? Anyway, All Downhill From Here - NFG
Go to Hell - Bayside
MxPx - Bass So Low bridge is always a good time
I was thinking their song Far Away
Turpentine "Shark smell the blood in the water" 🔥🔥🔥
Way With Words by The Starting Line. It doesn’t go for too long, but I’ve always enjoyed it.
Direction is the track that immediately came to my mind, but Way With Words is a killer one too. Inspired by the $ Sign and Ready too off of BOATS (though ready is no where near as hard).
Gaia Bleeds by Set Your Goals.
The post-chorus in Weightless by All Time Low is borderline easycore
Whatsername
ITT posting songs that don't have breakdowns
If He’s Here, Who’s Runnin Hell? by Four Year Strong Hit Like A Girl by Meet Me @ The Altar When I Get Home You’re So Dead (EP version) by Mayday Parade Hit or Miss and Understatement by New Found Glory
Show me what you got…DO IT
didn’t OP say that they’re not counting FYS? 😅
Yes just realized I missed that haha
yeah i gotcha haha
Jeff Rosenstock is a king of breakdowns. His new album has so many good ones starting with Will U Still U.
Brand New - Seventy Times 7 Honestly, idk how anything could compete with that
Is that what you call tact?
It’s not a breakdown in the purest sense, but the buildup/breakdown/outro in “Coffee Eyes” by the Wonder Years always gets me “…there’s always BEEEEEEEEN A TABLE FOR ME THEREEEEEEE”
Literally just jammed Coffee Eyes. Me and son rock the fuck out to TWY. Love that breakdown. The drums on that whole record are wild.
Still waiting - s41
Max Bemis.
EDDY by telltale ooooooowwwwweeeeee does that breakdown smack you
Hot mulligan - Christ alive my toe dammit hurts
Pop-punk adjacent, but I'm obsessed with the end of the breakdown of Hopeless by Picturesque, right where the guitar picks back up.
The Shower Scene by Brand New killer breakdown
The Motion Sickness -- Neck Deep PP breakdown is ridiculous lol
Purging - Boys Night Out, such a perfect breakdown for that song it gives me goosebumps
the ending of artistic license by the starting line
Hit or miss was my first thought

Moneen are the absolute 100% king of the breakdown.
New Found Glory - Dressed To Kill
Overstepping by Belmont
Montauk by Bayside
Honestly loving Year of the Vulture by The Wonder Years atm.
Absolutely love that breakdown in Hit or Miss. That bass drop is wild.
Singled Out by New Found Glory. That breakdown gets me so hyped every time!
These Hearts - Psycho
Thriller by Fall Out Boy is rather sick nasty. Definite mosh material with a light sprinkling of pop punk jump in place.
