This sophomore effort reached Platinum status, propelled by the massive hit "So Cold". The We Are Not Alone album is available on Amazon.

To understand the magnitude of Breaking Benjamin, one must look at the foundation. Before the platinum records, there was the self-released EP in 2001. These early tracks, raw and unpolished, showcased a band heavily influenced by the grunge movement of the 90s but armed with the rhythmic punch of the new millennium.

Fans on Reddit describe the EP versions as being "grittier" and "heavier" than the versions found on their debut album, featuring Benjamin Burnley's raw, unprocessed vocals.
