BREAKING BENJAMIN ANNOUNCE RELEASE DATE FOR EMBER

PRE-ORDER AVAILABLE NOW

BREAKING BENJAMIN have announced the release date for their highly-anticipated sixth studio album, Ember, will be April 13, 2018. Digital presale for the album is available HERE and physical HERE. The pre-order includes instant downloads of current single, “Red Cold River,” (available HERE) and new track, “Feed the Wolf,” also available HERE.

Speaking about the album, Breaking Benjamin founder/frontman Ben Burnley, noted, “People have always really liked the heavier side of the band. I think that’s what they sort of gravitate towards. But we also make sure to explore our melodic and softer side too.” On Ember, he explains, “we just tried to make it more extreme — the softer side on this album is really soft, and the heavy side is really heavy. We decided to give everybody what they want to the furthest degree.”

The self-produced Ember is the follow-up to Breaking Benjamin’s 2015 release Dark Before Dawn, which debuted at #1 on Billboard’s Top 200 and spun off three No. 1 rock radio tracks, “Failure” (2015’s most played Active Rock track), “Angels Fall,” and “Never Again.” The first single from Ember, “Red Cold River,” was released on January 5^th and already has 2.5MM streams and after two week is already charting Top15 at Rock Radio. The video, which has over 600K views can be seen HERE.

Additionally, Ben Burnley will be doing a live stream on Twitch.TV from 7-8pm EST tonight (1/26) to celebrate the pre-order and to raise money for St. Jude’s Children’s Research Hospital. Fans can tune into www.twitch.tv/breakingbenjaminofficial or the Twitch.TV homepage to watch the live stream and to donate.

Breaking Benjamin is currently on a nationwide arena tour with Avenged Sevenfold and Bullet for My Valentine, which kicked off on January 12^th and will wrap up in mid-February. For VIP packages and more tour information, go to: www.breakingbenjamin.com.
