Here is a fact you left out. Shallow Bay: The Greatest Hits album DID NOT contain the song "Shallow Bay" and "Shallow Bay" was the first song that Ben wrote while he was on an airplane.

[@grantwheeler8102]

Ironic since Ben hates flying

[@blueghost6288]

That album is awesome

[@justinbowen1183]

Ben hates flying. The band took a ferry to Europe which took 9 days so this is inaccurate. He also has a fear of cars so he drives a motor scooter. This is displayed on the cover art for their phobia album a man with wings flying.

[@benndarayta9156]

Thought Ben hates flying?

[@Manderinz]

@@justinbowen1183 Damn a ferry…but it’d be funny to see him drive around on a motor scooter

[@blkknightrutter1]

A couple little factoids this guy forgot to mention: 1: The song "Polyamorous" from the album "Saturate" was used to not only promote the PS2 action/horror game "Run Like Hell", but was also featured in the game. 2: Related to the first point, the song "I Will Not Bow" from the album "Dear Agony" was used to promote the Bruce Willis sci-fi film "Surrogates", and appeared during the film's end credits.

[@arielconsuelos8053]

And blow me away was used on halo 2

[@kadenvolan3557]

Breaking Benjamin’s largest influence came from Chevelle and their Point #1 Album. Ben has mentioned it in many interviews that he loved to listen to them in the car on his way to work, and wanted to do what they had done.

[@justinbowen1183]

Their biggest influence is Nirvana... ben literally says this all the time....

[@Manderinz]

@@justinbowen1183 ye

[@blasterexpert6589]

[@lunawolf7362]

Nathan Flasher then listen to their music. I dont care who you like or dislike it wont change my opinion

[@lunawolf7362]

Nathan Flasher *dont listen not listen

[@lunawolf7362]

Nathan Flasher so what if christian rock isnt your taste? that doesnt mean everyones gonna hate it just because you have a hating opinion on it

[@lunawolf7362]

Nathan Flasher okay and? your point here is you hate a band singing songs surrounding religion so people should hate it? in all honesty im not a christion myself but i still listen to their music because i like it. i listen to the lyrics and see my own meaning in it. i dont care if its christian rock or screamo, if i can find a meaning to it or just liking the sound of he song then ill listen to it and forget completely what its supposed to be based off of. music is music if its good you like it if its not your taste then dont listen to it simple as that. dont try to change other peoples minds based off of your own opinions against theirs

[@crucifixmegabuster95]

I fucking love this band bro. shallow Bay is so awesome. the new album is very good. I was wondering can you do maybe mastodon or shinedown.

[@darthkillhoon]

dear agony was released Sept. 29, 2009 not 9th. and another fun fact that I'm sure nobody really cares about but you mentioned the album cover and fact about phobia, on the cover of Dark before Dawn, inside the moon is an actual Ultra sounds picture of Ben's first born son (and only child) Benjamin Jackson Burnley V

[@ThatCamaroChick]

I have the SAME fears! Flying, driving, the dark & I also have hypochondriasis which is basically you fear a small symptom is something worse. Like a sore throat being strep, indigestion vs a heart attack. It's pretty awful to feel like this.

[@Light-eh7fe]

Although i don't listen to them anymore this band is pretty nostalgic.

[@Kitsune10060]
