Catherine,
I must tell you after meeting them again for the third time (how many bands can you say that about?) YOU ARE COMPLETELY CORRECT....
THEY ARE SICK in a good way! Each time I've met them they have been completely friendly (regardless of how large the crowd was)...They are the same folks and remember WHERE they've come from and how far they have come and WILL GO VERY SOON.

I love Breaking Benjamin. I have all their CD's on my computer except their 1st CD. I hope Ben gets well soon. Is Saturate as good as their other albums.

Saturate is great but I feel like every one of their albums has gotten better and better, each one gets more melodic and heavy at the same time. Bens voice is a little more raw in Saturate and not as melodic, so it's not better or worse I suppose just different then what you're used to on Phobia/Dear Agony.

Saturate is my favorite by them still. I like everything else but I guess its a sentimental thing with Saturate. Shallow Bay is probably my favorite song by them so you definatly need to get that album :biggrin:

Breaking Benjamin is awesomeness. Never have seen them in concert. All I have is every one of their albums and they are all on my iPod. I listen to them every day. My favorite is Dance With The Devil. :rock:

I agree. The new remix SUCKS ASS.

Techically they didn't break up. Ben just fired two members. He can find replacements and continue one. But with his health not getting better, I don't know if he'll even look for new members. :(

Agreed it sucks, but I'm not totally surprised sadly....so basically it's just Ben at this point....

Chad's an awesome drummer though. He's (well...still....) with a band called OurAfter who I've seen a few times at local/national shows. It's always comical though as no one knows the band's name half the time and on promo it's near always "Chad Szeliga's band *large gap in flier/promo ad* OurAfter"

I don't usually buy (it's rare) "best of" albums, but I did grab this. The 2nd CD with the rare/acoustic tracks is awesome. I actually ended up the Depeche Mode cover.


My theory is as such....70 year-olds of today swing dance at weddings, so at 70 we'll be moshing and head banging in walkers to Rage.

Concerts I have attended:
Hilary Duff - 2006
John Mayer - 2010
Marianas Trench - 2011 & 2013
Maroon 5 & Train - 2011
Nickelback - 2012
Our Lady Peace - 2012
Simple Plan - 2012
Little Big Town - 2013
Ziggy Marley - 2013
