No more tentative, its happening in September bitches.

Hell yeah! I love that album title, by the way.

Perfect title for a heavy-ass record!

w00t! That’s a cool name. I’m liking it.

Crossing fingers for a WANA type album.

I get to hear the new track tmwr…can’t wait!

WTF! How?!!

Anyways, seeing the album title makes it really hit home this is coming out in less than 2 months! w00t!

I don’t think it will be all that heavy. I do believe it will have a good variety just like their previous two album. In addition, I think they may even try and crossover some of the radio tracks this time around.

jayhud is lucky enough to be a rock and roll DJ! ;)

Hell yeah. I want a harder record too!

August 17th? What happened to the single being released to radio on August 10th?

jayhud- what station? It better be a good one.

Can’t wait to hear it. :)

Alt/Rock 89X in Detroit Rock City! I’m on-air 7-11pm.

jayhud’s gonna have a little treat for us tomorrow haha, and before anyone get’s there hopes up, no we aren’t getting the song.

How dare you come in here and taunt us like that!!!!!!!!!
……..let us know how it tomorrow. :)

He might be doing just that ;)

Thats our treat??? BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

You’re spoiled omar haha

I am. But I am also very jealous.

This post is going to have so many comments…but not as many as when they stream “i will not bow”.

Yup, they are the Music Madness Tournament Champs for a reason.

Yep, officially TuneLab community’s favorite band.

They always when the march madness tournament here in STL to.

I am pumped for this album.
Hopefully it is Saturateish

Being a huge Breaking Benjamin fan.. I think it’s a dumb album name. Honestly. It’s so dumb it really toned down my excitement to even hear the song.

BB never had incredibly complicated album names, and if your gauging your anticipation on an album based on its name, well I think your gonna miss out.

mikel, you know that tunelab is considered a second home by many members of the shallowbay comunnity. so its no surprise that anything bb gets a minimum 20 posts.

as a native of michigan, words can’t describe how proud I am to see my boy jay hudson on tunelab. mad props son.

The album name does sound a bit emo I have to admit that.

Kyle, you’re the debbie downer..wah wah waaaaah.

and @ juggernaut, I agree man!

I can’t wait to hear the song but I’m withholding judgement on the album name until I see a track list and some album art. I’m hoping for a mix of Saturate and We Are Not Alone by say a 60/40 ratio (60% being Saturate and the 40 being WANA or maybe even 70/30) I liked Phobia but not as much as Saturate and WANA. I’m crossing my fingers and keeping my hopes up.

I am not the debbie downer! I am just saying… honestly. I have been anticipating this release more than most and okay, maybe it hasn’t REALLY toned down my excitement, it’s just not a good album name. I think people are saying wow, cool, omgoodness just because it’s new news. Regardless. This album is without a doubt going to be the heaviest BB s*** ever released and it’s gonna be sweet.

I dont know how anyone liked WANA more then Phobia.
I want Saturates attitude and riffs and Phobias lyrics, and vocals.

I am with you on the album title Kyle, you’re not alone in this bud.

Thank you! People will see. Give it a week or two or three.

37 comments and goings. TL loves their Breaking Benjamin! And I agree with you Kyle about the album name, a bit crap.

Matt you are being really negative lately………its annoying.

Its Breaking Benjamin. It could be called Everybody Poops and it would still be an amazing CD.

I don’t think tunelab can take another Mike.

Maybe the reason I like WANA better than Phobia is because Saturate and WANA were my go to study music for my entire freshmen year of college lol I literally wore out both of those albums. For some reason Breaking Benjamin were the best of my vast music collection to study with. Phobia does has great lyrics but…I don’t know I was somewhat let down with it *shrugs* to each their own, lyrics wise it was great but it still fell short to the other two albums for me.

I agree, Marissa. I still like the random themed lyrics from Saturate the best, though. I liked WANA a lot but this new album is gonna sound NOTHING like it.

i don’t know about u guys, but did we set a record for most topic comments?

No, the other BB news piece had I think 50-something.

so can this one

I’ve been going through all the comments now, and I have to say that I agree with the ones who liked the album title.

Nothing will top the earshot fiasco

I like the title too.

Mikel can you guys dig up the Earshot article? Plus I remember there being a news post that had over 150 comments – it was one about album sales and Lucas to exception to the fact that you guys were posting how much less Linkin Park was selling each week.

I dunno if it’s archived I’ll ask jay

I cannot wait for this. Love the title. Can’t wait to see the cover art. Nice!

Jayhud-

From Macomb, love 89x.

BB, just one more awesome thing from the friendly state of Pa.

This album is going to be the highlight of ‘09. I’m definitely keeping my eyes out for the new single and the album.

Dude, I nearly flipped when I read this. This is awesome!!!! I cant wait! This album is gonna be released a day after my birthday!! This makes the best birthday present EVER!!!

I like the name, and I’m really looking forward to it. Hoping for an awesome step forward from these guys. Everyone talking about mixes between their previous albums, I’m looking for something that’s new and builds on their sound. I want it to have it’s own sound and not borrow from old stuff.

It’s gonna be the highlight right next to Three Days Grace.

I think the album title “Dear Agony” is great but must admit i liked the rumoured title “Taking The Blame” alot better. still can’t wait to hear “I Will Not Bow” Woot!

I WILL bow…to Ben once this album comes out

I think it’s a weak name..but whatever, it’s the music that makes the album, not the name.

Dear Agony, i dont know what to say but i think the title will easily grow on anyone, not the ring Phobia had but i dont mind. I really cant wait for the album art and the single, DAMN IT want my Breaking Benjamin NOW. As bad as the video might be with the Surrogates tie-in it will undoubtedly have a high tech look and probably a really powerful song. This will most definitely be my album of 09

Will tunelab like blow up if this album somehow turns out being shit?

God. I cannot wait for this to come out. I have been waiting since Phobia came out. It has to be amazing.

I remember when people thought “The Diary of Jane” was an “EMO” sounding title. well when people heard that, they nearly crapped themselves. So chill. Dont judge a book by its cover.

Could this post have the most responses ever?

wow i cant wait till something is streamed

@Pen
Nope. There has been HUGE ones from the time there was no message board.

Wow 67 comments now? I liked Saturate the best as well Kyle, I was just comparing WANA and Phobia, personally I would love it if this record sounded more like Saturate or if it was even more aggressive, I’ve always wanted to hear them go really aggressive and heavy (that is, more than they’ve ever done). As long as it’s been since Phobia I sure do hope this is an amazing album, if not I wonder if Matt is right and if Tunelab would blow up hmm…I’ve never a website explode before. If I had known or thought there was going to be this many comments maybe I would have checked my computer sooner.

Here’s an interesting thought: what would it sound like if BB’s next album (after this one) was a concept album? Random I know, blame it on the fact that it’s late and I’m sleep deprived.

Ok scratch that…72 comments now

Great album title! Can’t freakin’ wait!

i may be a little late for this but i agree with Marissa 70 plus comments wow and as for the title i cant wait for this album!

This is awesome!! I am ready for this, I am so tired of waiting. Do you know how long I was waiting? Last year Breaking Benjamin said that it would be out late that year.And we were making topics in the forum about an early Breaking Benjamin album stream and stuff like that. But no, they continue to keep us waiting and push back their release. It is about time it’s looking up for once.

Ugh…I’m offline for a day and this breaks out! 70-some comments, awesome!!! I must say, this news made my day. Breaking Benjamin is my all time favorite band and I am counting down the days until the single release and album release. I like the album title. And thank god all of this means a TOUR!!!! Hope to meet some of you crazy TL people at the PA shows.

Katie, by crazy meaning Shadowking, orph, mayvix, and Mike, you better come armed with a stun gun and a case of pepper spray.

Wait, what? I can post here now? SWEET!!!

Oh look, a new Breaking Benjamin album. SWEET!!!

And a new album title. Eh, it’s ok.

Shadowking, speak for yourself. YOU were waiting for an album stream.

Perfect, I always carry those two items in my purse!

I had you guys fooled, I never fell for any of the traps that Nick made. I had my guard up.

King Of Shadows, you only fooled yourself, yet again.
