 (65 Customer Reviews)
When Aaron Fink and Markus James left Universal Records act Lifer to join the then-unsigned Breaking Benjamin, many hard-rock fans were skeptical. WE ARE NOT ALONE, the latter band's sophomore effort, promises to silence the naysayers for good. Led by powerful vocalist Ben Burnley, Breaking Benjamin delivers a snap-tight, streamlined brand of heavy alternative rock with occasional detours into the rhythmic funk-metal territory inhabited by Limp Bizkit and Korn.
With strong melodies reminiscent of Staind or Incubus at their most accessible, the Pennsylvania combo makes good use of soaring vocal harmonies and unusual production touches (the piano intro on "Breakdown" and the swirling, phase-shifting guitars on "Believe") to separate itself from the heavy-rock pack. On "Forget It" and the closing ballad "Rain," Breaking Benjamin gets downright New Romantic, suggesting a diversity unusual among its contemporaries.
Breaking Benjamin: Ben Burnley (vocals, guitar); Aaron Fink (guitar); Marcus James (bass guitar); Jeremy Hummel (drums, percussion).

Typical
I heard "RAVE" reviews about this album so I had to check it out! To be honest, I wasnt that impressed. I have a 20 other cd's with the same sound that due the job better. Im not pissed I bought the cd, just expected to hear what every one had said about how different they where & how each song sounded nothing like any other song on the cd which was Bull s*#t. Their the 3rd generation of a style that has already been mastered.

Purchase We Are Not Alone CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Breaking Benjamin Saturate CD (2002)
We Are Not Alone
 $10.79  
It's a testament to the conviction of Breaking Benjamin that two of its members quit another band already signed to a major label to join what was, commercially, much less of a sure thing. SATURATE's success proved them right, though. A melting pot of post-grunge riffs, nu-metal power, and classic rock accessibility, Breaking Benjamin offers something for hard rock fans of all stripes. Melodic choruses and signature riffs rub shoulders with screeching, from-the-gut vocals and amps-on-11 guitar firestorms. By paying homage to all their influences simultaneously, the band seems to have come up with a hard-hitting sound whose whole is greater than the sum of its already-impressive parts on BB's chart-bound debut album SATURATE.

| | Crossfade CD (2004)
We Are Not Alone
$8.99
Shortly before recording this disc, the Columbia, SC-based heavy rock group Crossfade changed its name from the decidedly less genre-appropriate Sugardaddy Superstar. Longtime fans need not worry, though--the band still traffics in the same brand of hard-hitting, melodic neo-grunge that won it a loyal Southern following. Taking cues from rock-radio stalwarts Nickelback, Staind, and Cold, the quartet combines snap-tight metal guitar rhythms with soaring, harmony-laden vocals. In addition, there are elements of the late-1990s rap/metal sound made famous by Korn and Limp Bizkit, particularly ...
| | Seether Disclaimer II CD (2004) Bonus DVD; Deluxe Edition
We Are Not Alone
$8.99
A cursory listen to DISCLAIMER reveals a debt to such U.S. heavy rock bands as Papa Roach and Drowning Pool, no great shock since Seether producer Jay Baumgardner had previously worked with both of those bands. The surprising part is that this very American-sounding nu-metal band actually comes from South Africa. Their homeland is where the Dave Matthews Band comparisons abruptly end, though. Seether goes for the time-tested power-trio format that's served hard-hitting rock bands in good stead throughout the decades, from Mountain to Nirvana. Singer, songwriter, and guitarist Shaun Morgan is at the heart of the group's sound, his angst-ridden lyrics and emotive delivery occasionally suggesting the influence of the aforementioned Kurt Cobain-fronted band. Grunge flavoring to the contrary, though, this is a solidly contemporary band whose sheer sonic force puts them directly in the forefront of circa-2002 heavy rock. (Note: DISCLAIMER II features this debut, in addition to eight bonus tracks and a DVD.)
This is a DVD & CD combination by Seether. The ...
| | Shinedown Leave A Whisper CD (2003) Enhanced CD
We Are Not Alone
$10.69
Shinedown's debut album is a blast of updated vintage Florida alt-rock that should find a home in the hearts of those for whom the flames of Alice in Chains and Soundgarden still burn brightly. This Jacksonville Florida quartet's take on the genre puts all the requisite elements in place--Layne Staley/Chris Cornell-esque vocals, grinding guitars, in-your-face-drums--but LEAVE A WHISPER is no by-the-numbers exercise.
"Fly From the Inside" is a soaring hymn to the power of self-realization, while the teen angst-laden ballad "Burning Bright" could well be the band's theme song. The lesson of the 1990s has been that nobody ever went broke combining Shinedown's theme of alienation set to over-amped rock & roll, and the band, to their credit, embody this theme as well, if not better, than many of their peers.

| | Hinder Extreme Behavior CD (2005)
We Are Not Alone
$10.79
It's unclear precisely which definition of their name Hinder prefer: "to impede progress" or "the outdated midwestern slang term for the buttocks." Both fit, because Hinder is an unapologetic throwback to the post-Guns 'n' Roses era of hard rock, when dudes like Poison and Motley Crue ditched their glam look in favor of a grungier "street" vibe and a tougher-edged sound. Their unapologetically smirking lyrics ...

We Are Not Alone
$12.59 
On its third full-length album, PHOBIA, the Pennsylvania-based heavy-rock act Breaking Benjamin offers up another potent round of moody, riff-laden tunes. While "The Diary of Jane" revels in sheer ferocity and recalls Bush, the emotive "Breath" carries echoes of early Tool, ...
