The wait is almost over, folks! 🎉🔥 BREAKING BENJAMIN guitarist Jasen Rauch and Keith Wallen sat down with Moshpit Passion at the Rock Am Ring 2026 festival in Nürburgring, Germany, and spilled the beans about their upcoming album. They’ve been recording non-stop for four years, and we’re not talking about just a few songs – we’re talking about a whole album, people! 🤯 It’s like they’ve been hiding in a cave, perfecting their craft, and are now ready to unleash their masterpiece upon the world. And let’s be real, we’re all excited… and a little impatient. 😂 I mean, who wouldn’t be? It’s been ages since their last album “Ember” dropped in 2018. We’ve all been waiting with bated breath, and the suspense is killing us! 🤣
So, what’s the tea? 🍵 Well, according to Jasen, the album is done, and they’re just waiting for the perfect moment to release it. They’ve got a title, and they’re just tweaking some artwork. Yeah, because that’s not what they’ve been saying for the past four years… 😂 Just kidding, we trust them. They’ve been working hard, and it shows. Their latest single “Something Wicked” is a testament to that. It’s like they’ve taken all their emotions, put them in a blender, and hit puree. The result is a beautiful, dark, and twisted song that will leave you breathless. 💀
Keith added that they’re super excited to share the new album with the world. They’ve been seeing all the comments from fans, and they’re like, “Chill, guys, we’ve got this!” 😂 But seriously, they’re proud of what they’ve created, and we should be too. I mean, have you seen their track record? 📈 They’ve been killing the game since 2002, with hit after hit. They’re like the rock gods of our generation. 🤟
Now, let’s talk about the release date. 📆 Jasen said it’ll be announced over the summer, so we’ve got a few months to go. But hey, good things come to those who wait, right? 🙏 They’ve been working on this album for so long, and they want to make sure it’s perfect. They’ve even been recording vocals in hotel rooms and festival grounds. Talk about dedication! 💯
And have you heard their latest single “Something Wicked”? 🎧 It’s like a rollercoaster of emotions, with Benjamin Burnley’s vocals taking center stage. The song is a tribute to their influences, both musically and thematically. They’ve pushed the boundaries of their sound, and it’s paid off. The result is a song that’s both haunting and beautiful. 🌟
But wait, there’s more! 🤔 In October 2024, they released another single called “Awaken”, which shot to the top of the charts. It was their first new music since 2018, and it was like a breath of fresh air. 🌟 The song was part of their new global recordings agreement with BMG, which marked a new chapter in their career. And let’s not forget their upcoming tour with CHEVELLE and RETURN TO DUST. 🤘 It’s going to be a wild ride, folks! 🎢
BREAKING BENJAMIN is no stranger to success. 📊 They’ve had ten songs hit No. 1 on the rock charts, numerous platinum and multi-platinum songs and albums, and over 8.5 billion combined streams worldwide. They’re like the rock version of a fine wine – they only get better with age. 🍷 And with their loyal fan base, they’re unstoppable. 💪
So, there you have it, folks! 🎉 The wait is almost over, and BREAKING BENJAMIN is ready to take the world by storm. Again. 🌪️ Stay tuned for more updates, and get ready to rock! 🤘🎸🔥💥🎶👏💕😎👍
