who likes this band. i love their music and own both cds!

 

[philN]

eh, I got their newest album to review about a year ago. It was alright, but wasn't anything all that impressive, typical rock/nu-metal. But hey, to each his own, I suppose.

 

[Qyöt27]

I'm sick of them. Like Phil said, pretty typical alt. hard rock/nu-metal. And considering I can hardly stand the way alt. rock has gone during the past three years, there's very little chance I would like any of those type bands.

The music industry picked the wrong type of alt. rock to capitalize on. I wish they'd have gone with bands like Flying Tigers, PrimeSTH, Mesh, Flickerstick, Treble Charger, Depswa, and Bliss66 than Puddle Of Mudd *gag*. Or better yet, start pushing Industrial music again.

i used to like them, based on the couple songs the radio kept playing, then i had to review their live album. They are horribly derivative.

That CD i had to review is now a shiny, cut up chunk of a mosaic my kids made for an interesting project. I highly recommend this disposal method for CDs that turn out to suck. Tin snips & epoxy are an endlessly fascinating source of amusement for lil ones

I have their newest album and really enjoy it. My favorite song is Forget It.

they're kool

 

[Chrome]

my bro is into that kind of music...

to me, they're as boring, bland, and used-up as any nu-metal band out there.

to me, they're as boring, bland, and used-up as any nu-metal band out there.

That's about the status of "nu-metal" though.

 

[spazzy_mcgee]

Yeah, I like a lot of their songs but their new cd is kind of boring. But hey, whatever floats your boat.

Oh, you are my new favorite person!! Prime STH and Flickerstick are two of my fav-o-rite bands. I've seen Flickerstick several times, and nobody puts on a show like them.

Anyway, you're right on the money. I'll never figure out why we get force-fed **** like Hoobastank, Trapt, and Staind...

*Edit* Oh, I forgot this is a Breaking Benjamin thread. They're not bad. But, they're not great, either...

I was at my local record store today with a friend and I saw a kid looking at a Breaking Benjamin cd. I turned to my friend and said, "I always think it's funny when I go to a record store and see people paying for albums that I get sent for free." The kid looking at the record overheard me apparently, because he turned and asked me if I thought it was worth $15.98. I told him no. So he put the album back.

I'm like a superhero.

Phil...saving teenyboppers from wasting their hard-earned allowance money on derivative nu-metal bands since 2005.

 

[God.is.my.force]

I'm a huge BB fan----Blow Me Away, So Cold, and Sooner or Later are my favorite songs by them.

Hey, it's people like us saving the world from bad music one person at a time.

I hope The Theory doesn't read this. I think he likes Slipknot. Sucker!
