Platinum-Selling Rock Megaforce BREAKING BENJAMIN Have Just Released Their 4th Album “Dear Agony” and Are Gearing Up For a Nationwide Tour

If you want to get inside Ben Burnley’s head, just look at the Dear Agony album cover-- it’s an actual scan of the singer’s brain. The lyrics to the first single, “I Will Not Bow,” provide further insight: “Now’s your chance to run for cover / I don’t want to change the world / I just want to leave it colder.” Then there’s the musicality—trademark Breaking Benjamin, full of uber-catchy choruses, dexterous drumming, intricate, powerful riffs and a darkly compelling vibe. It’s a sound that gave the band the #1 rock hits “So Cold” and “Sooner or Later” off 2004’s platinum We Are Not Alone,” and “Breath” and “Diary of Jane” off 2006’s recently certified platinum Phobia. On Dear Agony, produced again by David Bendeth (Paramore, Killswitch Engage), Breaking Benjamin upped the ante, as Burnley notes: “We’ve been together 8 years, which is like 20 years these days. We’ve honed our sound and focus. Being on the road, you become a better musician, and the more music you listen to and the more experiences and people you’re exposed to, the more complicated you become, the more complicated your music can become.”
