stuff can be deceiving

and for the Blink breaking up thing I agree with that too, I almost think it's funny that people think "OHGEE THIS PERSON IS IN SOMETHING ELSE NOW THEY CAN'T BE IN THIS" it's not like they're limited to 1 project, my favorite band all have their own seperate projects and there are people like Anthony Green and Craig Owens that have been in mass projects and still have time

DarkFury- You really shouldn't spread something as fact without solid evidence. Bands have to face a lot of lies and rumours, don't add to the problem. Especially on the internet, the internet is a hot mess when it comes to lies, rumours, and misunderstandings in regrads to celebreties. Blink 182 is a good example, there is so much lies and mistakes being spread in the Youtube comments of their vids it isn't even funny. Less than half the people in the comments have any idea what they're talking about. Everyone said Plus 44[Blink split into two bands Angels and Airwaves and Plus 44) was broken up beacuse Blink was back. Anyone with half a brain knew that it wasn't going to happen, because Angels and Airwaves was going to continue in Blink's downtime, and logically Plus 44 would too. Do some research, and sure enough, Plus 44 fuly intends to record another album. But that's just a random example.

As for Breaking Benjamin, I did a quick background check on them(I've read about them in the past, but I redid it when you made your claims, and there's nothing about that in the articles and bios I checked. And they really don't seem the type. Sure their musical sound is kinda harsh and menacing, as is their imagery, but if you look at the band, they don't look like bad dudes. In fact Benjamin Burnley is constantly plagued by health problems and fears. Breaking Benjamin has never toured outside of North America because the dude is afraid of flying.

Plus look at their lyrics. As agressive as Ben's voice gets, a lot of the songs are about love in one way or another. Doesn't sound like a woman abuser to me. Sure looks can be deceiving, but think about it, if they actually went around abusing women everywhere, they would have consequences to pay, not to mention a bunch of controversy surrounding them. It's not an issue that gets ignored these days.

So personally, I would ask that girl for some sort of source, and if she doesn't have one, I'd personally tell her not to spread stuff on a whim like that. Breaking Benjamin(and anyone really) deserves better than that. Slander is an awful thing.

Did anyone here know that all of the members of Breaking Benjamin are women abusers? I just found that out. It's ghey, but that shouldn't effect their music. The person who told me was a girl and she likes them.

replaceplz.

And where did she hear this? Unless it's from a good reliable source I wouldn't believe it.

I waited to see afi for three years so my mom and I thought it'd be worth it to wait outside til he came back, so we waited outside until two in the morning, wet, freezing cold. He arrived and saw us and just ran in his bus;; we were the only people there, and he couldn't even wave or even say "I'm sorry but we have to leave"
I mean we weren't really asking for too much
tbh I don't care if he was tired, we sat out there tired too.

that's what happens when bands get too big, they develop egos

but they were going up north so we followed the bus all the way to our exit and right before we got on we honked really loud at them so I hope they got woken up

3. Kernkraft 400 - Zombienation - Sports fans may have heard a remix of this in sports games where there's a 'Ohohohohoh' chant to the main melody.

6. Darkest Empire Remix - X-Ray Dog - This is trailer music, no idea why I like it so much...

7. O Destina - Immediate Music - More trailer music...

8. May It Be - Lisa Kelly - I know... big change in genre... It was originally sung by Enya, but I like Lisa's version better.

9. This Broken Soul - Rebecca Kneubuhl - Yeah, we've all heard this one...

10. Time To Burn - Storm - This should be higher up, second after 'Sandstorm'; I forgot about it...
