Yeah exactly, it seems like a such a shame that The Thing (1982) didn’t find its audience until years later. Because I feel like that’s as close as we got to seeing a John Carpenter film with a big budget and it was great.

John Carpenter > Steven Spielberg

I call them groove breaks, when the song takes a little break and just grooves for a bit.

The video version of Even Flow by Pearl Jam has a great one, Stranglehold has one, the album version of Sweet Emotions has one as the intro, so maybe not technically a break.
