The drop is the point in a track where a switch of rhythm or bassline occurs and usually follows a recognisable build section and break.

One of my favorite drops is in Filter & The Crystal Method - (Can't you) Trip like I do

The buildup starts from 1:25 and drops at 1:50.

What're some other awesome ones?

To be perfectly honest, drops aren't good unless you're listening to the entire song. So skipping to a drop is going to make it comparably worthless. You need to be there for the entire journey. The climax isn't so great if you have nothing to compare it or relate it to.

Too many good drops to post here. But it's essentially a "post a song you like" thread.

Sorry, Finny.

Well obviously that's true, but I was giving the time so you would know what point in the song I was referring to exactly.

Regarding your second point, it's more essentially "post a song you like with a drop in it" thread, which is different

I know so many, but now I try and think of some I can't bring any to mind. I think a drop completely depends on your mood too. Also, don't forget about what I like to call the "anti-drop" as seen here:
Camo & Krooked - Turn Up the Music (the retard who posted it spelt Krooked wrong -.-) It drops from roughly 1.07 - 1.29. Some people don't like it, and I didn't at first, but I now think it works really well for this sort of stuff.

DefCon-17: Maple Syrup Faggot; +362|6371|Vancouver | Canada

Beat drop:

Otherwise:

First one: Calms down at 1:36, then builds up to 1:57.
Second: 2:48 to 3:08

Fucking epic.

Drop comes at 2:05, but not worth it unless you start listening from the beginning.

I vouch for both of these. The drop in Paint it Black gets me everytime. Brilliant.

Breakdowns are better.

No because everyone seems to be a metal-hater and claims that it is all emo/scene shit.

IWABO breakdowns are the best, same with Job for a Cowboy.

PWD breakdowns are where it's at.

I can't believe I was so mean about this a year ago. Must be Finray

It's not out yet so the best you can do is preview, but this drop gives me a boner.
