During an interview with Chicago’s Rock 95.5, Breaking Benjamin’s Benjamin Burnley offered an update on the band’s new album. According to him, the group already “have the bones for the whole thing.”
Burnley said the following:
“Well, we’re working on it… It’s the same thing as before.
Back in the day, we were on a climb, we wanted things, and now we’re all just so blessed to be here, period. And so there isn’t necessarily, I wouldn’t say like a climb, but there’s definitely like a maintenance to stay where we are. But that being said, when there’s a climb, you’re really rushing yourself, you’re hungry, you wanna get it. And we are still hungry and we do wanna get stuff too. But I think it’s a little more relaxed now where we really only work on stuff when we’re genuinely inspired to.
And I feel like that’s like — when I listen to the songs that are rushed from back in those days, when I listen to stuff now, I have more peace of mind listening to the newer stuff, because I know that nothing, not any part of it exists because it was rushed. It’s all intentional. It’s all done in a great setting and in a great mindset. And so that’s kind of what takes a while, ’cause you can’t like just take a pill and and be inspired. So that’s what we’re doing.
And the record, we have the bones for the whole thing. And it’s just a matter of when we’re feeling it, ’cause that’s going to be the best result anyway, is when you’re feeling that, and so that when those moments come by, we work on it. And then when they go away, we don’t.”
