Breaking Benjamin
Breaking Benjamin has been a dominant force in mainstream hard rock since Ben Burnley formed the band in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania in 1999. Their albums 'Phobia' and 'Dear Agony' produced a string of rock radio hits built on Burnley's distinctive vocal tone, massive guitar hooks, and lyrics that explore inner turmoil with anthemic resolve. Despite extensive lineup changes over the years, Burnley's singular vision has kept the band's sound remarkably consistent and commercially potent.
