From Post-Grunge Darkness to Mainstream Dominance Emerging from Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, in the late 1990s, Breaking Benjamin carved a unique niche in the rock landscape. Led by the distinctive, angst-rich vocals of Benjamin Burnley, the band mastered the art of heavy, melodic post-grunge and alternative metal. Between their formation in 1999 and the end of 2011, the band released four studio albums, survived major lineup changes, and delivered some of the most enduring rock anthems of the era, including "So Cold," "The Diary of Jane," and "I Will Not Bow."
"So Cold," "Sooner or Later," "Rain (2005 version)," "Break My Fall" Chart Performance: Peaked at #20 on the Billboard 200. Certified Platinum by the RIAA. Fun Fact: Guitarist Aaron Fink and bassist Mark Klepaski, formerly of the band Lifer (also known for the Freddy vs. Jason soundtrack), officially joined during this cycle. 2006: Phobia – The Masterpiece Released on August 8, 2006, Phobia is widely considered the band’s magnum opus. It was a darker, more conceptually cohesive album about anxiety, panic attacks (Burnley suffers from a fear of flying – aerophobia, which inspired the title), and internal struggle.
