      Personally, my favorite song is Ashes of Eden. Not a heavy or hard song my any stretch of the imagination, however its probably the best showcase of Bens vocals. Other than that, it's going to be between Diary of Jane or Dance with the Devil

    BB was my gateway to heavier music, as they were for a LOT of people. Nik put it perfectly “they are the heaviest band that aren’t meant to be heavy.” The low tunings, the occasional scream, the chugs. Everything got cemented at an extremely early age. They’ve been an all time favorite for me for as long as I can remember and I still blast their stuff regularly even if I still love my blasts. It’s nostalgic, it takes me back to younger and simpler times.

    This song is such a nostalgia trip and makes me so happy. I'm glad see that Ben's recovery is going well, he's coming back to singing those gorgeous rich vocals he's known for and the layering on this song is just... *happy fangirl squeak*. The last portion of the song where we get the scream and the clean layered - look, if this shows up on a video game OST somewhere, I wouldn't be surprised. *Looks at Halo* I'm just so happy to hear them creating music again. If you want to go check out songs like "Dance with the Devil", "Angels Fall", "Rain" - and the version of "Medicate" on the Saturate album, do not be surprised if you just end up binging every album because it's great music for brainstorming and storytelling.

    The new elements is you don’t always get a guitar solo with their music.

If you enjoyed this song you should really dive into their catalog, there’s fantastic songs in their ENTIRE discography

    Breaking Benjamin is a fantastic band and they're the reason I got into rock and metal. I've so much love and nostalgia for these guys, and whilst they're not reinventing the wheel with their music, I've found them to be consistently solid throughout the years.
    I also had the privilege of seeing them live at Download Festival 2016, and that's something I'll never forget.
    If I had to pick a favourite BB song it'd have to be Firefly, as that's the song that got me into them.

    Breaking Benjamin now has Red's ex guitarist, and they've always been criminally underrated in my opinion. Makes perfect sense as to why they'd have some heavier leaning guitars in this. I thought it was pretty good myself

      Red actually gets surprisingly heavy if you dive into some of their lesser known songs.

    This is classis Breaking Benjamin but definitely heavy. Love this song so much. He pulled out a lot of great aspects to his vocals, instruments and lyrics.

    Red Cold River and Torn in Two, and Tourniquet connect for the music videos and all 3 are absolute bangers! Storyline for these are a little girl goes missing and her father goes on a journey to find her and all hell breaks loose!! (IYKYK) 🔥🔥🔥 (corrected to include all parts of the trilogy)

    The best thing about BB in my opinion how consistent their sound is, if you love an album, chances are you will love the rest of them.

    To give you the contex quickly. They haven't released a new heavy song of this caliber since their olds albums dear agony and phobia , their old song blow me away and their newest album ember. So for the band is another step up in their music and for the fans? Another trip to memory land. And what you say about the different arragememts in their guitars and vocals, is absolutely right. Great for the band my man 🔥🔥🔥🔥

    Cool reaction mate. I've been with BB since Halo 2, but in terms of the context you're looking for, I'm not sure it even fully clicked for me until I saw them with Bush and Alice in Chains. Hearing them play live in between their two main influences (one ultimately bigger, one ultimate smaller) really clenched it for me--this is the heaviest band that could still live comfortably on the radio. Somehow someway the terrible injustice of considering them to be something Creed or Nickelback-esque crept in after the endless overplaying of Diary of Jane in every mall's Hot Topic, but the context of the albums themselves destroys that illusion. They don't rush or release mediocre material, ever. I think this discography of seven, or maybe eight if we are very fortunate, is going to be looked back upon as something sculpted in marble.

    I think that is an incredible "change" for a band like them. I'm a huge fan of "We are not alone" album, but this is really interesting.

    It's a very good song, and it fits with the rest of the discography very well. Breaking Benjamin is a band that doesn't mess with their sound much, and they're very consistent with the quality as well. A few songs that I you might consider checking out are Waiting On The Sky To Change (collaboration with Starset), Red Cold River, Failure (I prefer the Aurora/acoustic version with Red, but you can't go wrong either), Firefly, Breath, and Unknown Soldier.

    Thanks to BB, I started to listen to Shadow of intent. This is not a joke. BB brought the concept of "heavy" in my music taste

    I’ve been a fan of BB since middle school (I’m 28 👴🏻), and I gotta say, I LOVE this change. I’ve always loved their music, but I always felt like the instrumentals lacked just a bit of…. Heaviness I guess? This is perfect to me. Still breaking Benjamin with phenomenal vocals, but now mixed with heavier guitars and a breakdown. This is absolute perfection imo.

    Most people I see commenting on Breaking Benjamin are youngins...they are saying they were teens back in 2000..sheez...I was 30 when Phobia came out in 2006 and they were huge on the radio along with Creed and 12 Stones. I went back into their older stuff after hearing Diary Of Jane on the radio and got hooked on them. Followed them through the Dear Agony record then the bassist and guitarist went behind Ben's back and took the Halo 2 song Blow Me Away and started charging for downloads without permission from Ben. Legal battles came for years and those 2 got kicked out the band. Also the drummer left the band too for creative differences. They reformed and came back 10 years later in 2015. This song to me has a lot of mix from their sounds over the years which is great as they are still sticking to the rock edge that we all know and love...great to see them back along with 3 Days Grace back with their original singer and Crossfade getting back together too 😎🤘👍

    Breakin Benjamin have been around since the early 2000s and, which is a common criticism, they have been consistent with their sound since then. And for some, especially in modern music (maybe for some exceptions), BBs music basically follows the typical song formula of intro, verse 1, chorus, verse 2, chorus 2, bridge, end chorus. But I love that about them.
    Breaking Benjamin is the one band I have the exception for that I want them to stay same. They have done so well sticking to their sound that if they deviated away from it suddenly, I don't think I would enjoy them.
    This is mainly a heads up if you ever dive into their discography. To me, they're all amazing but their most popular one is Phobia. Lots of good songs on that album!
