I just actually discovered BB couple years back and there's just something so solemn in their sound never heard it in other bands, they quickly became one of my favorite bands all time
The opening scream from “I will not bow” was my first metal experience and my god did it make an impact. Breaking Benjamin are still in my top 5 bands of all time.
"The heaviest band that is not meant to be heavy" couldn't have said it better myself. Ember was a kick in the mouth I wasn't expecting. They have heavy stuff but I think Ember has some of their heaviest tracks. Like "feed the wolf" and "tourniquet" are absolute eargasms.
The thing with Breaking Benjamin is that you always know what you’re gonna get with this band. There gonna deliver big choruses, solid riffs, some screams here & there and by god Ben knows how to write stuff that you can just singalong too and that’s what I’ve always loved about this band is that there very easy to just vibe too.
If you've never heard "Breaking Bad Guy" by Jared Dines and Anthony Vincent, which is a cover of Bad Guy by Billie Eilish in the style of Breaking Benjamin, that's basically what it is. And it's a banger.
yeah.... about LP... all the other bands will sound the same (crossfade, BB, 3DG...) but LP? LP will never be the same, they will never sound the same although there will be people who used to be in LP... so.... no... early LP fans will not look up to new LP, even when thet will play old songs, they will still sound like cheap cover band
I hope you continued on to the rest of their music. So many great songs out there like Lights Out (Dear Agony), Had Enough (Phobia), Until the End (Phobia), and Failure (Dark Before Dawn)
Man! Anberlin with Matty, Haste the Day, Breaking Benjamin, Silverstein...my god the elder emo in me is ✨️THRIVING✨️ lol! So many oldies coming back with a vengance!
With Skillet going back to their more mid 2000s sound, Linkin Park coming back full swing, Three Days Grace bringing Adam back while keeping Matt as well, AND Breaking Benjamin dropping a single, I am happy I grew up listening to these bands. (Not to mention STARSET is also doing pretty good with TokSik)
Now I just need Thousand Foot Krutch to return to the sound from their 2009 album Welcome to the Masquerade. That CD shaped my youth. Much later I checked out their other albums and was underwhelmed.
@@MetalHeadSkully I heard the album itself might be leaning more towards that style, but unpopular was a step in the right direction. Hopefully it follows through.
Breaking Benjamin was my first ever concert. I went with my dad in first grade and ben saw me walking around as a little kid and came up to me and gave me a dog tag he was wearing, I still have it to this day, I love this band from playing the halo games hearing blow me away, I love this new song and hope to go see them again some time in the future.
The reason I believe this story is because I live in New Zealand and I met a roadie for the Sex Pistols. He was a homeless drug addict on a bus. My friend and I didn't believe him, and out of a dirty sports bag he pulled photos of him much younger with Johnny Rotten. We couldn't believe it, he had other photos with the Ramones and The Clash and bands like this, 70s/80 punk. Was he a roadie? Dunno, possibly, probably not. He did have cool stories and photos, though. Does your Unc know Ben? Although it sounds like it is far-fetched, it is way more believable than my story and I know mine happened
I've been kinda out of the loop with Breaking Benjamin in the recent years so I wasn't sure what to expect when this popped up on my spotify homepage, but this gave me such huge Phobia vibes and made me so nostalgic. Felt like I was 9 getting into the band for the first time again for a minute.
I discovered BB one day back in 2004 while I was in a Newbury Comics store buying a Killswitch Engage CD. I was 24, and have been a fan since. I've them seen live them a few times as well. I still have that CD to this day. I haven't listened to them in a while, but I never skip to another XM station when I hear them on satellite radio. Time to add this one to my Playlist.
Just went to their live show in September, Ben was talking about he was getting old n stuff and I figured that meant they were done making songs... This is definitely a welcome surprise!
Bens voice is just fantastic as always. I listened to this 3 times today with my fiance. We both love BB. The chrous was just so beautiful and this song goes hard. Welcome back Breaking benjamin, three days grace and linkin park. I'm a kid again and i have the CHILLS! LET'S GO!
BB will always feel like a walk home to my roots. Love the nostalgic and epic chorus and completely agree with Nik as BB was my gateway band in middle/high school....which eventually helped make my way to ADTR, We came as Romans, Beartooth, Architects etc.
Ben posted a video not too long ago at one if theur concerts where he was thanking fans saying something like "Im just grateful you guys still want more from us"
Breaking Benjamin, even after going into metal more in the last 10 years, are still considered my favorite band since discovering them in 2008. Dear Agony is the first song I learned how to play
Breaking Benjamin was the band that got me into metal. Favorite band as a kid. About a year ago I relistened to all the albums and it was just banger after banger. All their old stuff is excellent from first to last. They’re again my favorite band
I remember back as a little kid I used to play an early 2000's motocross game with a banger soundtrack. And my favorite song on there was Natural life from Saturate. That was probably one of my earliest music influence and kickstarted my decend into heavier music, discovering so many great bands along the way. I will always have a special place in my heart for breaking benjamin
They're my gateway band and let me tell you, it's beyond reviewing their work. I'm just grateful for anything and everything they put out. Just so wholesome man they feel like home😭
The entire Death of Peace of Mind album by Bad Omens sounds like it takes HUGE influence from early Breaking Benjamin (I don't believe they really did, but there are so many subtle similarities in the riffs and song structure).
I was BB live and they were FANTASTIC. This last song is literally a PERFECT melding of their older stuff and their newer stuff, taking the best parts of both and just making your earholes happy.
Metalcore scene is delivering this year. Holy shit. All these bands making a comeback & BB releasing their first song in 6 years. Freaking hype for next year 🤯
I STILL jam out to everyone of their albums when I mow my yard. And I’m almost 40. Their music never gets old. They have stayed true to their style through the years. Will always be my favorite band.
BB was a huge part of my early teenage music journey. Always loved these guys, got to see them in 2019 in their home town with 3 days grace and they FUCKING SMASHED IT! Until The End is still their best track
I saw them Headline with The Pretty Reckless, Beartooth, and Sevendust last year and then saw them and Jinjer open for Disturbed last summer. They rock live
Honestly, this is what i needed from BB. I am chronically ill and so is Ben so he inspires me. Dear Agony(the song not the album) got me through a lot, it was my "fight song" for a long time and still is, but this is my next "fight song". The part that really solidified this for me is "I still hear the call of life..... stay forever in the light I awaken I survive" Especially the "I survive"
This is what music can do better than anything - puts you right back in a place and time from 20 years ago, I need a Halo 2 multiscreen link up / hang out with the boys ASAP!!!!!
This song is like if you took verses from DBD, a chorus from DA, and turned a riff from Saturate into the breakdown. Those are my 3 favorite BB albums, so like...I'm into it lmao
I'm from Bulgaria, and some badass that apparently was in charge of choosing songs for a lil bulgarian show called "Съдби на кръстопът" (Fates on Crossroads) chose to have the opening to be "Diary of Jane".. and cus of this i was introduced to this GOATED band, my favorite to this day
Havent listen to much BB the last couple of years, but ngl, this song just make me wanna be 15 again, and put diary of Jane on repeat while farming honor points in Arathi Basin.
Super consistent band, favorite of all time! I love how they can fit into a different genre with every album.. numetal at time, metal core sometimes, post grunge, alt rock, soft rock, all of it at points! I like that this is them.. no label, no overhead, just them making their own stuff!
to me , they fit into the category of like alter bridge, shinedown etc where its catchy but heavy, i think the catchiness is what turns alot of the metal heads off their sound
Just saw them live with Staind like two weeks ago. People stayed for BB then like 25% of the crowd disappeared before Staind even hit the stage. WTF’sies.
That comment about the Halo montages... Man... You just casually brought back memories ive forgotten for so long. That innocent, weird in between Times when no one really knew how the internet works and just did their thing. Like the montages.
Phobia came out the year I started high school and will forever be my fave. BB, 3DG, LP and Seether were my top high school bands, and really paved the way for me into rock/metal. Love this new song, cannot wait if this leads into a new album!
I haven't listened to BB since like 2019, but when youtube snuck this song into my random playlist while cycling I had to rewind because I was like "wtf, is this a new BB song?". The sound is so recognizable.
as a huge BB and MIW fan I didn't realize how well MIW emulated their sound bcuz the whole time I was like "this could be a MIW song" bcuz of how Ben sings. I never realized just how similar their vocal styles are. i personally love the fact they took so much inspiration from BB bcuz this bands music is just so timeless. i hope we get a new album from them soon.
Love It hitting a bit harder. Always been a big fan of BB. His collaboration tune with Scooter from Cold was phenomenal. Not heavy but thought it was great
Day is made! I was thinking like 3 days ago it's getting time for a new BB album. When BB drops a new album, you're not going to ehsr epic Dream Theater, you're not going to hear cutting edge metal... You're going to hear chunky fun riffs, catchy chorus, some song screaming and ya gonna have a good time. I'm all for it.
"We Are Not Alone" is still one of my fav albums but "So Cold"... one of those songs for me that I can place on repeat for a long time. New song is awesome as well and gets me excited for a new album
Love Breaking Ben! Red Cold River is one of my all time fav songs and the Eye from the Ember album is my phones lockscreen. The first concert I took my boys to was when they co headlined a tour 5 years ago with 3DG. Still one of my fav concert experiences ever!!! Can't wait to see them again!
My personal tastes in metal range from Megadeth to Nile to Opeth to fucking Epica and Nightwish to Cattle Decapitation, Dream Theater, Enslaved and Dying Fetus. Breaking Benjamin slaps. If you don't agree, your opinion is the incorrect one.
Breaking Benjamin was literally one of my gateway bands, along with Disturbed and Shinedown. Still love them. Saw them for the first time at Sonic Temple 2024 and was able to sing along with literally every word 🤣🤣🤣
They are just great. I’m 52 and grew up on slayer, pantera, etc but their music just makes you feel good and never gets old to me. Seen them 3 times in last 2 years and their shows are off the charts. Dad rock is alive!!
People forget how their debut album Saturate is filled with heavy bangers like Phase, Water, Home, Polyamorous, Shallow Bay, Wish I May etc... give it a shot :)
Breaking Benjamin has been one of the most consistent bands in history and have NEVER disappointed!
Ben more so than anything, it's 99% him. Dude doesn't miss.
I would also add 7dust and Chevelle. They been very consistent throughout their career
That's one thing I love about them. I know what I'm gonna get
Proof that a band can have essentially the same sound throughout their careers and still be amazing.
@@HolyAd3pt It's crazy because they have the same sound, but it evolves in each album. Really impressive.
BB is one of those bands who could make songs that all sound the same but we absolutely love every single one of them
💯
Unlike nickleback
fact, i am more than happy that BB stays true to their sound
edit:typo
yeah its true
This is a new song but it feels so nostalgic at the same time. Ben's voice just hits different!
I just actually discovered BB couple years back and there's just something so solemn in their sound never heard it in other bands, they quickly became one of my favorite bands all time
Its because its the building blocks of most of Breaking Benjamin songs
i think it might be that he writes all his own songs the exact same way he would another songs its so good
Im so glad he never changes
The opening scream from “I will not bow” was my first metal experience and my god did it make an impact. Breaking Benjamin are still in my top 5 bands of all time.
may i ask what other band are ? just finish all bb album and was looking for more bro :)
@ coheed and cambria, Silverstein, we came as Romans, Jamie’s elsewhere
"The heaviest band that is not meant to be heavy" couldn't have said it better myself.
Ember was a kick in the mouth I wasn't expecting. They have heavy stuff but I think Ember has some of their heaviest tracks. Like "feed the wolf" and "tourniquet" are absolute eargasms.
"Blood" too! Ember is my favourite BB record.
Their best album by far
@@BrandonDorneryou are crazy, nothing touches Phobia and We are Not Alone
@PrenticeJones-fh2ew i love Phobia but Ember is way heavier sounding and way better.
@@BrandonDorner to each their own I suppose
The thing with Breaking Benjamin is that you always know what you’re gonna get with this band. There gonna deliver big choruses, solid riffs, some screams here & there and by god Ben knows how to write stuff that you can just singalong too and that’s what I’ve always loved about this band is that there very easy to just vibe too.
I have a suggestion Nik. How to Breaking Benjamin in 30 seconds.
Yes it's prime time for that! And Chris Motionless on vocals!
If you've never heard "Breaking Bad Guy" by Jared Dines and Anthony Vincent, which is a cover of Bad Guy by Billie Eilish in the style of Breaking Benjamin, that's basically what it is. And it's a banger.
I still hate that with the evanescence one he added a rap part just because of one song that happened to be their biggest song 💀
@@Sethantoniorodriguez yea these are lowkey parodies but really well made. Like the Gojira whale thing.
eu adoraria ver isso
I love the way their drummer plays. Solid drummer.
There is a movement in rock this year with linkin park, crossfade, breakin Benjamin and three days Grace getting back together and I’m here for it all
Crossfade is my personal fave, can't believe they're back!!!!!
Dad rock is back!
@@codybain6788 I’m a 54 yr old mom not a dad lol so it’s not just dad rock😊
also CREED
yeah.... about LP... all the other bands will sound the same (crossfade, BB, 3DG...) but LP? LP will never be the same, they will never sound the same although there will be people who used to be in LP... so.... no... early LP fans will not look up to new LP, even when thet will play old songs, they will still sound like cheap cover band
Red Cold River was the first Breaking Benjamin song I listened to back in 2018, and I haven't regretted it since then
I hope you continued on to the rest of their music. So many great songs out there like Lights Out (Dear Agony), Had Enough (Phobia), Until the End (Phobia), and Failure (Dark Before Dawn)
Even thought Shallow Bay is controversial, I recommend that entire album. It's a "Best Oc"
@@FearFul392 Of course I did 🤟🏾🤟🏾🤟🏾🤘🏿🤘🏿🤘🏿
Breath in 2011 for me :)
Lateeee bro. So late
Breaking Benjamin is the only band who has stayed consistent with the bangers throughout the years. I hope they never change
There’s not a single metalhead who grew up on BB who doesn’t have a bit of a vocal crush on Ben. Such a beautiful voice… and then some.
And Adam got back with three days grace!🎉 LFG
And Crossfade is apparently back. 2008 is back.
what am i reading????!?!?!?!
Yeah saw that but they're keeping both vocalists which is odd unless the other guy can do dirties we do know about
Matt is alst still in the band as well two vocalist @veiregor
Can't wait to hear the new music from them
You know EXACTLY what you’re gonna get with a new BB song, and you’re going to love it every time.
Breaking Benjamin paved the way for Motionless In White
Yep
So damn true! MIW is easily one of my favorite bands aside from BB! I saw both bands in Stl a few years ago and both are badass!!
Very true, and cool that they are from the same part of Pa
Gotta agree. Motionless In White is like a mixture of Hybrid Theory Linkin Park and that post grunge screaming heavier sound of Breaking Benjamin.
Motionless in White got their name from an Eighteen Visions song
Now i just need RED to do one more killer album.
Those days are dead
I absolutely love RED.
Rated R was a bit lacking but Surrogates instantly became a certified banger for me
Rated r had some great songs and some that were just ok but I really enjoyed the previous red album. Im in the minority though.
@@MrMinionMoney sever is a favorite of mine
"Nostalgia" is the word for this song... God Damn... What a good song!
It brings back their 2009 vibe
Man! Anberlin with Matty, Haste the Day, Breaking Benjamin, Silverstein...my god the elder emo in me is ✨️THRIVING✨️ lol! So many oldies coming back with a vengance!
Those first three bands are my favorite bands, like, ever…
Is it possible for a 19 year old to be an elder emo? I even have the back pain!
It's not heavy, it's perfectly balanced. I can't wait for the next songs.
If it makes you headbang to it, it can be considered heavy.
That riff is pretty heavy
That is heavy.
The way grit Ben sneaks a guttural grit on the word “broken” in the 2nd verse was subtle and cool as hell.
This makes me want to get cozy with a blanket and play halo
Best comment. You're a real one :D
Tested this earlier and can confirm it hits just right
I AM ABOUT TO DO THAT
You know the good shit Brother! I feel that so much 👌
Still have that on every playlist
That solo was the Old Spice of solos. Classic. Functional. Pleasant. 5:35
With Skillet going back to their more mid 2000s sound, Linkin Park coming back full swing, Three Days Grace bringing Adam back while keeping Matt as well, AND Breaking Benjamin dropping a single, I am happy I grew up listening to these bands. (Not to mention STARSET is also doing pretty good with TokSik)
Now I just need Thousand Foot Krutch to return to the sound from their 2009 album Welcome to the Masquerade.
That CD shaped my youth.
Much later I checked out their other albums and was underwhelmed.
Since when did Skillet go back to their old sound? The last 2 singles they put out sucked.
@@MetalHeadSkully I heard the album itself might be leaning more towards that style, but unpopular was a step in the right direction. Hopefully it follows through.
Wait omg is Skillet good again finally?
@@ProjectLuark I hope so. I’ve only liked 1-2 songs the last few albums. Unleashed was their last good album. I didn’t like unpopular.

As a person that has an uncle that is friends with Ben, I’m glad Ben is famous.
that's WOW! HAHAHA get me in touch with Ben lol. just kidding

Those complaints are dumb. I love that they are melodic while still having such a melancholy sound. Love love love Breaking Benjamin.
Yeah i hate it that
which is weird because this song still has the core elements of a bb song
Every breaking benjamin song is amazing and no one will tell me otherwise
Just went to their live show in September, Ben was talking about he was getting old n stuff and I figured that meant they were done making songs... This is definitely a welcome surprise!

Nah it was way more avenged sevenfold nightmare album sounding
@@theredpillneo2296Wrong

I'm glad Nik is a Breaking Benjamin fan. I just saw them live last week and they killed it, still one of my favorite bands of all time.
so happy u mentioned chevelle, saw them live a few months back and they were incredible
Chevelle f*cks. Such a great sound they have.
Chevelle is awesome and the dudes are really down to earth. Had a beer with them at a show about 8 years ago.
Saw them almost a year ago with Loathe and 3DG. Their show was incredibly underwhelming
Hell ya man
Breaking Benjamin didn’t even skip a beat with this banger! Nicely done, boyz!
Ben posted a video not too long ago at one if theur concerts where he was thanking fans saying something like "Im just grateful you guys still want more from us"
The thing i love about BB keeping true to their exact sound literally cant complain keeps me feeling them 2000s days.
they connect the different moods in the song so perfeclty... and the artwork is just beautiful
"2000 AMV videos" Fuck yes 😂

Switch Chevelle for Seether, and that's mine.
BB has been easily one of my favorite bands over the last 14 years, I'm just SO HAPPY man, the nostalgia hits like a truck
BB is goated all around
When you've been in the game as long as these guys, "familiar but fresh" is a 10/10 for a new record, and they nailed it.
They're my gateway band and let me tell you, it's beyond reviewing their work. I'm just grateful for anything and everything they put out. Just so wholesome man they feel like home😭
The last part of the Song is the perfect Gateway for more. It is short enough to not get you overwhelmed but long enough to get you curios.
The entire Death of Peace of Mind album by Bad Omens sounds like it takes HUGE influence from early Breaking Benjamin (I don't believe they really did, but there are so many subtle similarities in the riffs and song structure).
I hear a lot of Red in Bad Omens as well. Maybe it's just Nick's delivery, but I swear Just Pretend is the descendant of Not Alone by Red.
In the bridge of TDOPOM

Call me a poser all you want, I FUCKING LOVE BREAKING BENJAMIN

Nahh kidding, I love them too 🔥👊
Breaking benjamin was my gateway to heavy metal nearly 20 years ago🤘 still love them🤩
Was just thinking it sounded like MIW and then Nic goes and says it. Haha. Glad I’m not alone! Classic BB.

I STILL jam out to everyone of their albums when I mow my yard. And I’m almost 40. Their music never gets old. They have stayed true to their style through the years. Will always be my favorite band.
BB will always be one of my favorite bands that I go back too. So cold is the song that opened my eyes to the band. And I have been a fan ever since.
Dude you nailed it: reminded me of playing Halo 2 and 3 back in 04-08 with friends at LAN parties lol. God I’m old. But it’s so fucking good.

I never realized just how similar their vocal styles are. i personally love the fact they took so much inspiration from BB bcuz this bands music is just so timeless. i hope we get a new album from them soon.
Love It hitting a bit harder. Always been a big fan of BB. His collaboration tune with Scooter from Cold was phenomenal. Not heavy but thought it was great
That is a pop 101 chorus. But good though. Scream at the end of chorus makes it even better.
BB got me into rock as a whole with We Are Not Alone.
BB back in the day was literally THEE gateway band when I was a kid that shifted my music taste from hiphop and rap to Rock and metal. I love them.
Day is made!
I was thinking like 3 days ago it's getting time for a new BB album.
When BB drops a new album, you're not going to ehsr epic Dream Theater, you're not going to hear cutting edge metal... You're going to hear chunky fun riffs, catchy chorus, some song screaming and ya gonna have a good time.
I'm all for it.
"We Are Not Alone" is still one of my fav albums but "So Cold"... one of those songs for me that I can place on repeat for a long time.
New song is awesome as well and gets me excited for a new album
GRAAAYYYSTOOOONNNEE!!! 🪨🪨🪨🪨🪨🪨🪨🪨
Love Breaking Ben! Red Cold River is one of my all time fav songs and the Eye from the Ember album is my phones lockscreen. The first concert I took my boys to was when they co headlined a tour 5 years ago with 3DG. Still one of my fav concert experiences ever!!! Can't wait to see them again!
My personal tastes in metal range from Megadeth to Nile to Opeth to fucking Epica and Nightwish to Cattle Decapitation, Dream Theater, Enslaved and Dying Fetus.
Breaking Benjamin slaps.
If you don't agree, your opinion is the incorrect one.
Ashes of Eden is a masterpiece of a song
My range is from Bilmuri to Meshuggah
@@ericmartinperez929 Love me some Meshuggah but I'm more fond of their earlier material if I'm gonna be honest.
Breaking Benjamin was literally one of my gateway bands, along with Disturbed and Shinedown. Still love them. Saw them for the first time at Sonic Temple 2024 and was able to sing along with literally every word 🤣🤣🤣
Vocals be popping in this one
The falsetto that Ben hits is just.. *chefs kiss* LOVE that his range has improved immensely!
We've been waiting for new BB, and they did not disappoint.
They are just great. I’m 52 and grew up on slayer, pantera, etc but their music just makes you feel good and never gets old to me. Seen them 3 times in last 2 years and their shows are off the charts. Dad rock is alive!!
People forget how their debut album Saturate is filled with heavy bangers like Phase, Water, Home, Polyamorous, Shallow Bay, Wish I May etc... give it a shot :)
This amazing band has been around for 26 year's. Also with the same sound and pure emotion from day one, they are an epic band.
