At first, this song didn't convince me. It felt too much like EMBER, an album I only half-connected with and enjoyed. The album isn't bad at all, but after great works like DEAR AGONY and DARK BEFORE DAWN, it fell short.

And well, I thought maybe Ben was running out of good ideas. I say this because with other songs it was different. From the first listen, I was completely hooked, and that's how I got interested in the band. SATURATE is a tremendous debut album, especially with the opening track, "Wish I May" a heavy song that made me enjoy the album completely; it met my expectations. Similarly, when Ben returned in 2015 with "Failure" I was hooked by the song; it felt like a beautiful comeback.

Now, listening to "SOMETHING WICKED" this past week, I really do feel the vibe of SATURATE and WE ARE NOT ALONE. Maybe Ben wants to go back to his roots because the song really sounds like that style. I was probably expecting something heavy and beautiful like DA or DBD, and I forgot about SATURATE and WANA, with their rebellious and experimental style. SATURATE is the reason I fell in love with BB music.

And now I'm really enjoying it and I'm fascinated by the song. It reminds me why I got hooked on this band, and I can't stop listening to it. Amazing song!! 🤟🏽

I have high expectations for the album now. It seems like it will be a mix of all their albums, since "AWAKEN" sounds like a mix of DD and DBD.

Thanks for this new stage, BREAKING BENJAMIN!

I missed the last tour they did together and that collab song is one of my favorite songs from both Starset/Breaking Benjamin

After weeks and weeks, I finally decided to go ahead and book a flight to The Netherlands to finally attend one of their concerts. Unfortunately tho, the general admission tickets were sold out so I ended up buying the balcony one. Now I’m not sure if the experience would still be the same……
