"Breath" is a song by American post-grunge/alternative metal band Breaking Benjamin.
 It was released in January 2007 as the second single from their third album, "Phobia".
 It was the band's fourth charted song on the U.S. Hot 100 overall, and the second from "Phobia".
 Although "Breath" failed to capture the pop success of The Diary of Jane at No. 50 where "Breath" hit No. 84 on the "Billboard" Hot 100, it was more successful on the rock charts where it hit No. 1 on the US Mainstream Rock Tracks chart, making it Breaking Benjamin's first number-one hit staying there for seven weeks where "The Diary of Jane" hit No. 2 and it also hit No. 3 on the US Modern Rock Tracks chart tying with So Cold as their highest-charting single on the chart where "The Diary of Jane" hit No. 4.
 The single was certified platinum by the RIAA in 2015.
The Wedding Present are a British indie rock group originally formed in 1985 in Leeds, England, from the ashes of the Lost Pandas.
 The band's music has evolved from fast-paced indie rock in the vein of their most obvious influences The Fall, Buzzcocks and Gang of Four to more varied forms.
 Throughout their career, they have been led by vocalist and guitarist David Gedge, the band's only constant member.
Dark Before Dawn is the fifth album by American rock band Breaking Benjamin, released on June 23, 2015 by Hollywood Records.
 It is the group's first studio album following the band's hiatus lasting from early 2010 to late 2014, and the first album to feature an entirely different lineup alongside founder and frontman Benjamin Burnley.
 Produced and composed by Burnley, the album took shape towards the end of the hiatus and was mostly written before the new lineup "even played a single note together."
 The recording process took place afterwards at both a personal studio of Burnley's and at the same studio "Phobia" (2006) was recorded, with all of the band members performing their respective instruments, including background vocals performed by guitarist Keith Wallen and bassist Aaron Bruch, making the record their first to feature vocals other than Burnley's.
Breaking Benjamin is an American rock band from Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, founded in 1999 by lead singer and guitarist Benjamin Burnley and drummer Jeremy Hummel.
 The first lineup of the band also included guitarist Aaron Fink and bassist Mark Klepaski.
 This lineup released two albums, "Saturate" (2002) and "We Are Not Alone" (2004), before Hummel was replaced by Chad Szeliga in 2005.
 The band released two more studio albums, "Phobia" (2006) and "Dear Agony" (2009), before entering an extended hiatus in early 2010 due to Burnley's recurring illnesses.
American rock band Breaking Benjamin has released five studio albums, one compilation album, three extended plays, sixteen singles and ten music videos.
 The group has sold over 7 million units in the United States alone, with three platinum records, two gold records, two multi-platinum singles, two platinum singles, and five gold singles as designated by the RIAA.
 The band signed with Hollywood Records in 2002 following the success of their independently-released eponymous EP, and began recording their first full-length major-label debut "Saturate" shortly thereafter.
 The record peaked at No. 2 on the "Billboard" Heatseekers chart and No. 136 on the "Billboard" 200 chart.
 It was certified gold more than thirteen years later.
 The band's sophomore effort, "We Are Not Alone", released in 2004, peaked at No. 20 on the "Billboard" 200, and was later certified platinum in the United States and gold in New Zealand.
 Breaking Benjamin's third studio album "Phobia" was released in 2006 and reached No. 2 on the "Billboard" 200 chart, No. 1 on the Digital Albums chart, No. 1 on the Rock Albums chart, and was certified platinum nearly three years after its release.
 Breaking Benjamin released their fourth record in late 2009 titled "Dear Agony", reaching No. 1 on the Hard Rock Albums and Modern Rock/Alternative Albums charts, No. 2 on the Rock Albums and Digital Albums charts, and No. 4 on the "Billboard" 200.
 The record was certified gold three months after its release and was eventually certified platinum seven years later.
Shallow Bay: The Best of Breaking Benjamin is the first greatest hits album by American alternative metal band Breaking Benjamin, released on August 16, 2011 by Hollywood Records.
 The album features every single released by the band from 2002's "Saturate" to 2009's "Dear Agony", with the exception of the 2010 digital single version of "Blow Me Away"; instead featuring the remix of that track featuring vocals of Sydnee Duran of Valora.
 A two-disc deluxe version was released alongside it, featuring remastered versions of b-sides, covers, acoustic performances, live recordings, and other rarities.
 "Shallow Bay" debuted at No. 22 on the "Billboard" 200, and sold an initial 13,700 copies.
 It topped the Hard Rock Albums chart for three consecutive years, from 2011 to 2013, and also reached No. 4 on the Top Modern Rock/Alternative Albums and Top Rock Albums chart for 2011.
The Dr. Abram Jordan House (also known as the Wedding Present House) is located along the NY 23 state highway in Claverack, New York, United States.
 It is a brick Federal style house, with some Greek Revival decorative touches, built in the 1820s as a wedding present from a local landowner to his daughter and son-in-law.

"I Will Not Bow" is the first single from alternative metal band Breaking Benjamin's 2009 album "Dear Agony".
 It was featured in the ending credits of the Bruce Willis film "Surrogates".
 The song was not written specifically for the film, but according to drummer Chad Szeliga, “Ben sent a few songs to our record label, Hollywood Records,” which is owned by Disney, who then decided they “wanted a Breaking Benjamin song for this movie.”
 The song was also being used heavily on MLB Network as lead-in and lead-out music during the 2010 MLB postseason.
