The Official BREAKING BENJAMIN Thread

[facelessman07]

Sadly I don't have a link but the news I have comes from heresay...

Apparently Adam Gontier (former lead singer of Three Days Grace) and Ben are working on new, ORIGINAL material together. If this is true, that's one hell of a good collaboration. Gontier had a live chat with fans and this is some info that got out.

Yeah that's a pretty cool combo if it turns out to be true. Still wish both of these guys would stick to their original bands though lol. But it'll be interesting to see where this goes.

[itaughttremonti]

I'm not too excited about that. Ben shines when Ben is in control.

[facelessman07]

Agree with you Andy. Obviously Adam won't be going back to 3DG, so hopefully this is writing for Adam's solo album. I would not want them on the same band, since they're 2 amazing vocalists and 1 band wouldn't do that justice. BUT...if the writing sessions spawn material that Adam and Ben can use separately and independently, then HAIL yes

Ben just needs to get his shit together and reunite with his band.

[Andy92]

Not much of a deal, but I noticed the band updated their cover photo on Facebook today. First time their Facebook profile has had any updates in 3 years. Be nice if other activity followed.

UPDATE:

Looks like Ben's back!

The dispute between Benjamin Burnley, who is the sole founder, primary musician, singer and songwriter for the band Breaking Benjamin, and two of the bands ex-members has been resolved. Benjamin Burnley retains his right to use his band name and Breaking Benjamin will continue.

Benjamin Burnley states:

I am pleased to finally put this matter behind me and focus on the future for Breaking
Benjamin. I wish to express my never ending love and gratitude to the best fans in the world for their undying love and support. Words cannot express my love to you all! Thank you!!

@ Macca

Great news, I love this band.

[One Drew Remains]

Awesome. Great news.

[Andy92]

Was the dispute between the guitar and bass player? Hypothetically saying it was, will the drummer stay, or I wonder if it'll be Ben with all new musicians?

[Timotheus]

I saw your comment before I saw Andy's, Craig.. You still got to break the news to me

[Andy92]

First you steal Summer back and now this. Not liking you so much right now Timmy.

[facelessman07]

Whoop whoop!!!

[devv88]

Such a shame. One of the most underrated rhythm sections in the mainstream rock scene.

[Andy92]

Yeah, I'm glad to see Ben making music again, but I'm bummed it won't be the same band.

[Macca]

fuck you andy

[BastiMix]

Kinda glad they are back but the very first sentence of the statement has somewhat of a sour aftertaste. Sounds like something written to feed his ego, even if he's everything that was stated.
