Mediate Michigan

The internal strife ripping apart Wilkes-Barre band Breaking Benjamin is the latest incarnation of the oldest story in the music business, Bret Alexander, lead singer of The Badlees and the band’s longtime friend, said Tuesday.

“Bands break up,” Alexander said from his recording studio. “It’s really hard to keep your head on straight and make it work. It’s like a marriage.”
