I love early bb man. Saturate was am amazing record
Ben seems like he’s having a blast here along with the band, don’t get me wrong they still sound great today (The newest album Ember is super solid) but I saw them lives a couple years back & they kinda seemed like they were just going through the motions. Here, you can hear the emotion pouring outta Ben in this performance
Thats what happens when u get old. They might have improved as musicians but thats what happens when you've been doing something for so long, it gets harder to get that rush of excitment
Love Breaking Benjamin. But I gotta admit, I kinda liked how they sounded live better back than compared to how they sound live nowadays. They still sound good but this just sounds better to me. Bens vocals sound a lot more raspy and more similar to how he sounds on the album compare to how he sounds now.
Aside from certain things that can be applied stylistically, as an individual with how the new lineup executes some things live, the biggests part is Ben. He writes differently sober and due to long term affects from his alcoholism he just never got back to full health. Biggest downfall of their live shows is he cant sing all too well anymore and relies on Keith and Aaron Bruch to take over chunks of vocals
That’s fair. Another reason that he sounds different on albums now though is just because they started using A TON of pitch correction on the albums during the phobia era, whereas the vocals are more raw on the first two albums (especially Saturate)..
@@TheGamingDruidthe correction already occurred in WANA, but nothing very evident, the corrections started to become strong from dark before dawn, It gets ridiculous sometimes, that "Run" from Red Cold River, it's a great growl but they didn't need to harmonize it
Best BB era :)

I agree
Yes. Sigh..... I mostly miss his singing voice during this time
Jeremy Hummel waZ my drum instructor for awhile after Ben let him go. I totally agree... this iZ the greatest lineup they ever had. 😆☕🥁🌃
Bring back the Quest Club man😢🎉🎉🎉
8:52 Daaaaamn, Ben's growls were so good, I would like to have been there.
This was such a huge tour for Ben. I remember not being a fan because all I knew was Polyamorous and I didn't like Ben's unique voice at first. Then I see them at the Cajundome on this tour and here comes this regular looking dude in cargo shorts and they just blew me away. Been my favorite band ever since.
Funny that I vaguely remember them when they opened for Godsmack at the county bowl in Santa Barbara, Ca and they did a tool cover which was good. It must have been early 2000's. I didn't follow them for years until one day I started to listen to them and thought why I didn't listen to them earlier. The lead singer kind of sounds like their band Earshot.
I saw them at the cajundome too.
This my favorite era of BB, thanks a lot for this
I miss that slight accent Ben had back in the early BB days.
Prior to 2005-2006 the level of his live performance was absolutely mind blowing, fuck aging...
The strength in his voice is just incredible in this show, absolutely night and day from just a couple years after this.
@@sega32xxx14 Which is night and day from how he sounds now lol. Still a good vocalist now, but he had something special back in the day. Kind of raw and unique
I don't think its age, as much as it was is heavy drinking which as we all know REALLY fucked him up
@@gntrihg I always thought the heavy drinking might have played a role, because the more sober he got the more "normal" his singing got. Which I'm glad he's prioritizing his health, but I look back on the old BB and realize that there's something amiss.
I HAVE NEVER SEEN THIS BEFORE. THANKS FOR POSTING THIS RARITY
Instant subscribe.
I miss this breaking benjamin!!
It really was his best time, younger Ben alongside Aaron, Mark Klepaski and Chad Szeliga. they are missed 😢
@@jaze675Jaze i found you
@@jaze675this is still Jeremy not Chad, but still those 2 original line ups will always be the best BB.
Saturate - Phobia era will always be the true Breaking Benjamin in my mind
amazing stuff. i wish i could find live material from 2005-2006 but this will do, thanks again for this. they sounded amazing in the early 2000s, those were the best times to see them.
I miss so much the old Breaking Benjamin days and line up.
It’s pretty amazing though how the new lineup sounds just like the originals. If you listen good enough, you’ll notice too
@@islanders1329fan Yeah they are anyway good but me personally I miss Aaron Fink at lead guitar and Chad Szeliga on drums.
@@islanders1329fan naw, they don't even hold a candle to this line up. To each their own though
@@BBPalmer420 The only one I’d keep from the current lineup is Bruch. If I had it my way, it’d be the Phobia/Dear Agony lineup but with Bruch on rhythm guitar and harmony vocals. Leaves Ben to focus on vocals.
@@islanders1329fan No, it's nothing alike. You have no clue what you're talking about.
Ben, Mark, Aaron, Jeremy.
Best BB lineup.
No other lineup can top this one.
Sigh. Yeah. This line up captured peak BB. The tone of all their songs was just something.
@@neroknight1234 man, even though Jeremy wasn’t my favorite drummer, I prefer Chad, but I will admit though, this was their prime. it’s hard to watch the new lineup live.
Oh my! When his voice was in tact!
That growl at 8:52 tho 😳🤘
This concert is underrated AF!!
I can’t get enough from this show
Shallow Bay and Water and Medicate are my favorites from this album
Grammar corrected: Shallow Bay, Water, and Medicate are my favorites from this album.
Now the uploads are really getting good
Sugarcoat is super underrated and it sickens me
It's a shame he can't sing that chorus anymore :(
@@GalanDavilaJesusDavid sadly, the bassist can scream thooo
@@GalanDavilaJesusDavid on the bright side though, he still does the "NOOOOOO"s in the chorus and it sounds absolutely amazing. So he still can do it in some capacity
Wow - Jeremy’s goin’ nuts! Love it!!
those SCREAMS
Back when Ben could make it through a half hour set. Dude burns out after two songs these days.
Yeah it's sad to see. Didn't he have like some kind of throat disease or something at one point? I can't exactly remember
@@TheTonyShow he had an alcohol related illness.
Yeah, guy isn't 25 anymore and has a plethora of progressive illness that he deals with everyday.
@@t3chn070 yeah, that's kind of the point. People get old.
@@papagrantits Wasn't disagreeing with you, I was furthering your point
I wasn't even born yet in 2003 i was born in 2005!!! 😭 I wish I had a time machine and go back to when breaking benjamin was new. Benjamins voice sounds so good and powerful I get flustered when he growls 😅
the definitive version of BB
The first four albums with the original lineup were the best. The last two albums with the new lineup haven't come close.
I agree, DBD and Ember weren’t great compared to the first albums.
The original lineup only released two albums.
I agree, i like Dark before down and Ember but the early 4 albums are better.
At least Ember is a notable improvement over DBD, it will just never have the sound of the core 3 member band, no disrespect to Hummel but at least you can replace a drummer without a major difference like what happened from 2015 on.
@@sega32xxx14 Really? Well, I think the drummer is the heart of a band and the music will sound very different if they change. I think Hummel was the best drummer in BB. Yes he had simpler beats but man were they really heavy. Chad, well he’s great as well but I feel he would just play the same beat over and over (maybe Ben writing the drums and not Chad had something to do in there) and then Shaun pretty much is copying Chad’s stuff.
Love every second of this!!!
Seen them in New Orleans house of blues around this time. They did the same set along with schism and Ben said the same thing about tool. Glad I got to see the original line up. Saturate is an awesome album still.
Also real quick, this was the godsmack tour
Elaborate on the show info?
@@liberatedtapearchive3984 just he says "thank you godsmack for having us"
No this was with saliva
I think the godsmack tour hadn’t started yet
@@pandaexpress7326 he thanks godsmack for having them tho
Woooowwww Ben's voice is so strong here! This was way early in their career so I can only imagine then that the sadly strained and pitchy performances he gives now are a result of not looking after his voice, and his health issues can't have helped. It's a super intense style he sings in, with loads of rasp and then some screams as well. So if he didn't learn to do that sustainably then it's no surprise his live vocals have deteriorated over the years, and the last two albums are heavily autotuned :(
I seen BB last month and Ben sounded great he didn’t do all the screaming parts for certain songs but his voice definitely sounded strong
Definitely, his screen sound autotune especially on ember. his mystery illness definitely damaged his voice. i’m surprised Chester Bennington was able to keep his screams intact despite him being an alcoholic as well and both Benjamin and Chester are around the same age.
@@204august2 Ben gave up alcohol but replaced it with a SHIT TON of Red Bull, I remember seeing a studio and your diary video and he has whole fridges stacked full of it.... that amount of caffeine is absolutely terrible for your voice 😭 It can't have been good for his various phobias either with the inevitable anxiety it causes.
Jeremy Hummel
@The Goo Fighters but he wrote the drums for topless tho cuz ben sang it live back in 2001
17:35 Jeremy's head hahaha
Old lineup was so much better
Yeah man so true but Aaron and mark did to themselves
I wish I was there too! I was only a kid at this time. I love him so much!,😭❤️❤️
There’s always so much clarity to their sound in these amateur videos. Any other band and the guitar gets muddied up in the mix.
This will forever be the best version of BB!
Buen video hermano me encanta escuchar a breaking benjamin
Saludos desde Mexico df
I love how Ben throws his arm back during the main riff. Very unique style of rocking out but it works!❤🤘🔥
fuck yeah!

Love this so much
Ty bro
Gold.
Great show , awesome power 😎
CoLd Army was here.
Before Ben got nuts and fired everyone and hired session guys for his band. These guys are from my area, i grew up seeing them do covers at bars. Arron and Mark were from lifer. Ben got sick and those guys went and remixed sum songs behind his back and got pissed and fired them all! The only guy in the new band from our area is the bass player, everyone else are hired guns.
Yeah that whole series of events, starting with the hiatus was absolutely ridiculous and juvenile. I mean I get both perspectives, but both of his players were a completely core part of the band's sound, it is so much more of a "mainstream" or deliberate act ever since 2015, and don't get me wrong I get his perspective of why he did it, but it was the wrong decision for this band. I have a feeling the immense relief he gets from live singing nowadays with the current members was a significant factor also though, I mean his ability notably degraded only a couple years after the show depicted in this video, he certainly could use the help.
In retrospect you can argue that the original lineup were “hired guns” bens stated on a few occasions that it was a strain on him having to do all the vocal work and write all the songs and that the original line up would merely write little bits of riffs and licks that he could incorporate into the songs he already wrote. his new lineup contribute by singing live and even writing/co writing songs with him.
Aaron F and Mark really didnt have anything to do with the band's sound. He was always the main songwriter for every song. Only Ember is when he took a step back and let the new guys write
This is the real Breaking Benjamin! Before Benjamin took over and fucked it up.
@@michaelbar570 Ben was always the ringleader behind Breaking Benjamin, even back then. Aaron, Mark, Jeremy, Chad, etc. complimented Ben as a fromtman and leader well sonically. But Ben was pretty much the director of the band.
Back when he was addicted damn ben’s come a long way❤️
what was he on?
???
@@jmd11185 alcohol and cigarettes
Thanks for the upload!!!!
so GOOD
nice
Did Aaron do backing vocals
Breaking Benjamin headlining over Coheed, Thrice, AND Thursday??
FUCK 🤯🤯🤯
EDIT: Actually, I just double-checked this on Setlist.FM, Saliva was actually the support (or headliner?) for this show, and C&C, Thrice, and Thursday were on their own tour that played the same venue the day before. Still, that would have been a sick lineup.
Another unfortunate reminder of how boring this band was live. Saturate is easily one of my favorite albums of all time with its catchy hooks and monster groove riffs, yet the band always looked bored out of their minds on stage.
I don't think they look bored. Check out their show at the staircase from the same year, full of energy and looking anything but bored
It depends on what you consider as a non boring performance... It can be just your personal expectations.. imo think they had a great stage presence, it's just their own vibe.. every band has their own
how can you say the look bored mark and aaron are dancing around like nut cases
Back when life was good.
Nice back b4 mpls was a $h!tHole overrun by dumacraps & the obvious garbage we need not mention😢😢😢. Bring back the good ol days
