Ember by Breaking Benjamin
Ember is an album by Breaking Benjamin, released in 2018. 1 song from it has charted on rock radio countdowns, with 4 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “Red Cold River”, on 4 lists with a best position of #7.
Ember, Breaking Benjamin's sixth studio album, came out on Hollywood Records on April 13, 2018, and Benjamin Burnley produced it himself. It was the second record from the lineup he assembled in late 2014 after a spell as the Wilkes-Barre band's only member: Aaron Bruch on bass, Keith Wallen and Jasen Rauch on guitars and Shaun Foist on drums, with Bruch and Wallen adding backing vocals.
Nobody comes to a Breaking Benjamin record for surprises, and Ember doesn't offer many: it's the band's trusted formula of crunching guitars, brooding verses and choruses that swell to fill the room, with Burnley still writing from a place of angst. "Red Cold River" led the way as the first single in January, "Torn in Two" and "Tourniquet" followed, and the album debuted at number three on the Billboard 200. It turned out to be their last studio album for Hollywood before the move to BMG.
