The title cut and Anthem Of The Angels were my favorites from your Dear Agony picks

I've always liked this band. Haven't heard a song that I don't like.

I like em, too. They're right up there with Shinedown and Crossfade for best rock bands from the 2000's.

Their appearance on The Leno Show when they played "So Cold" hooked me.

I'm so excited. The lead singer is doing a solo acoustic show of Breaking Benjamin material near here. If you here the acoustic material in this thread it's a perfect match. I've seen the group twice and they are great!

Anyway, I was revisiting the most recent album and really like the closing soing on it! From 3:20 on is awesome!

Without You


and lo and behold there is an acoustic version!

I haven't listened to these guys for quite some time. I remember listening to Diary of Jane a lot as I really enjoy that song, the beginning just sucks me right into it every time!

I'm with Harkitty on this one, I haven't listened to this band in such a long time. I remember listening to the acoustic version of Diary of Jane though, that song is beautiful regardless.

These guys have revamped an older song of theirs and did a pretty good job with it! It's not a track with an album release but could easily fit on the debut! Here are both versions!

Blow Me Away
(second version is the new one feat. vocals by female artist Valora)

Re: "The Official" Breaking Benjamin Thread

^Holy shit. The addition of Valora's vocals makes the song even better than the original. And I really enjoy the original.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Yeah Prime, they had some fans bitching about them revamping and releasing an old song but I think it's harmless. If an artist decides they creatively have a new way to enhance the song then more power to them. I think it's creative as Hell whenever an artist can hear layers of sounds within one piece!
