They were my favorite band before they dropped off the face of the earth and their lead singer went a little nuts.  They have a new album coming out in June and they are coming to town in May.  Am going to try to catch the show.

New Single:  Failure

Sweet.  Have seen them about a dozen times.  

Saturate is still my favorite album.

Cool, I saw them in a crappy dive bar in Lincoln, NE years ago.  It was a good show.

Been hearing it on Octane all week. It's not bad, but for some reason I don't like it as much as their stuff from 10 years ago. Hopefully I like the rest of the album better, or it grows on me. Definitely has the same sound as their older stuff though, which is a good thing.

Heard it today on the radio then played it a couple more times.

Sounds like their old stuff, still a fan.

No, Ben is the only original member.
They didn't really "implode" Ben is an alcoholic and is trying to recover from it.

The lead singer didn't really go nuts, he was pretty close to dying.

Glad someone was just as excited as I was about it. I think it sounds great and good to see they stuck to their original sound.
What lies beneath is prolly my favorite along with dear agony.

First concert I ever saw was Breaking Benjamin. Not my style of music, but friends were into them so I ended up seeing them twice in high school actually. They put on a good show so I always respect them for that.

I like them.  I typically listen to metal, so they are a nice softer change of pace

Plus their songs are easy to play on the guitar

I love me some Breaking Benjamin, and I'm excited they're back, but they're totally a studio band.

Ben Burnley can't sing his way out of a paper bag.

I'll be buying the album when it comes out.  I like that they have their old sound and didn't try anything retarded.  I think future albums might be progressive, but I have a feeling this album will sound a lot like their older stuff so they can gain traction again with their fanbase.

Sacrifices must be made, I got the tix for my wife for a Mothers Day present.
Besides, have you ever seen the HOT chicks that are at a Breaking Benjamin, Maroon 5 and Matchbox 20 concert?

Like I said, sacrifices.......

I don't dig their style of music, whiney love ballad with an interjection of Cookie Monster growling followed by more whining. Rinse, repeat.

I'd willingly go see MB20 and M5 and I'm not ashamed to admit it, but I have no idea why BB would be playing with them.
While they are not metal, they seem a little too intense for the target audience.

I have had the opposite experience, 100%. Seen them 3x. They always put on a fantastic show and if they aren't the headliner, they blow the headliner out of the water.

Awesome! I've been waiting a long time for this. Hopefully (as it's been said) they'll live up to my dreams. Evanescensce went downhill. Flyleaf is still doing well. I've lost track of how many times I've played the BB stuff in the truck so it'll be good to have some new material.

The TDG album is pretty meh with the new singer.  Breaking Benjamin's album should blow it out of the water if the rest of it is as good as the new single.

"I am Machine" and "Human Race" are decent songs, "Pain Killer" is pretty canned. 2 out of 3 isn't too shabby, I haven't heard the rest of the album yet.

I would imagine if you are a fan of Maroon 5 you wouldn't like BB. Burnley's live vocals tend to be hit or miss. Mostly miss but BB is a good band although they have become formulaic. Maybe he worked out his vocal problems during his time off. I'm looking forward to the new album.
