a group of deliquints sent to a correctional facility for the senseless murder of a young african-american man, Fareek Benjamin. Some say that the method of murder used was so distressing, these men "broke" benjamin. However, in order to remember such a legacy, we call them such in the present tense.

Best Songs: Polyamorous, So Cold (in my opinion
So, just when you think that you're alright, I'm crawling out from the inside, I never hurt anyone, I never listened at all!

a great band only known for their one song "so cold" which the radio stations played out but will not pay attention to their other great songs such as polyamorous,ordinary man,blow me away,away,water,forget it,home,firefly and many more the band is slowly gaining its popularity but is still mostly underground which i think is best and decreases the time of them selling out.so far they have 3 cds out "saturate","wer not alone", and "so cold EP" which features the acoustic version of so cold and a song used on the halo 2 sound track "blow me away"
random wonna be: dude what are u listening to?

Breaking Benjamin is a nu-metal/hard rock band and all in all a great band. Not only do they sound awesome on their CD's but they are even better live. I first discovered them at a concert where they opened for Evanescence and I was blown away. They were amazing. So I went out and bought Saturate and We Are Not Alone and now I'm a die hard fan. If you've never really listened to them before but want to I suggest you pick up Saturate first because it's an all around better album(in my opinion) than We Are Not Alone.

Some personal favorite songs I would recommend to someone new to BB are:
Water
Natural Life
Phase
Shallow Bay
Home
Break My Fall
Sooner or Later
Breakdown

A great nu metal band formed by Ben Burnley. This is a little known fact about Breaking Benjamin, but Ben Burnley used to perform at coffee houses playing covers of songs by other bands to earn money.
