Three Days Grace is a Canadian rock band formed in Norwood, Ontario, Canada in 1992, originally under the name Groundswell. After a breakup in late 1995, the band regrouped in 1997 under its current name with a line-up consisting of guitarist and lead vocalist Adam Gontier, drummer and backing vocalist Neil Sanderson, and bassist Brad Walst. In 2003, Barry Stock was recruited as the band's lead guitarist. The band is based in Toronto.
After signing to Jive Records, Three Days Grace has released four studio albums, each at three-year intervals: Three Days Grace in 2003, One-X in 2006, Life Starts Now in 2009, and Transit of Venus in 2012. The albums have been certified platinum, double platinum, and gold, respectively, in the United States. The band have a string of number one songs on the Billboard Alternative Songs and Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks charts.
On January 9, 2013 Three Days Grace announced that lead singer Adam Gontier was resigning from the band because of a "non-life threatening" health issue. Adam Gontier has been replaced for the duration of the tour by My Darkest Days singer Matt Walst, brother of bassist Brad Walst.
History
Independent years
Three Days Grace, which was originally called Groundswell, was a post-grunge band that formed in 1992 in Norwood, Ontario. They released one full-length album called Wave of Popular Feeling. At that time, the line-up consisted of vocalist Adam Gontier, drummer Neil Sanderson, bassist Brad Walst, lead guitarist Phil Crowe, and secondary guitarist Joe Grant. Most of the members were attending high school when the band initially formed.[6][7]
By the fall of 1995, Phil Crowe and Joe Grant had left Groundswell. In 1997, Gontier, Sanderson, and Walst regrouped and changed the band name to "Three Days Grace". According to Gontier, the name stands for a sense of urgency with the question being: if you had three days to change something in your life could you do it?[8] Once in Toronto, the band became acquainted with local producer Gavin Brown. The band gave him several years of material that they had created since forming, and he "picked out what he called 'the golden nuggets'", according to Gontier.[9] Brown and the band polished the songs into a demo album which they gave to EMI Music Publishing Canada. The record label wanted to hear more material, and with Brown producing, the band created the song, "I Hate Everything About You", which attracted the interest of several record labels.[9] The band was soon signed to Jive Records after being sought out by the company's president.[6] Also, Three Days Grace's songs, "Are You Ready" and "Home" were featured in the movie Raise Your Voice.
Three Days Grace (2003–2005)
After being signed to Jive, the band moved to Long View Farm, a studio in North Brookfield, Massachusetts to record their debut album.[9] The self-titled album was finished in Woodstock, New York and released on July 22, 2003.[6] It was met with generally mixed to favorable reviews. Dave Doray of IGN said of the album, "Mistakes? There's not many."[10] Allmusic reviewer Heather Phares said that on Three Days Grace, "the band's focus and adherence to alt-metal's formulas — coupled with tight songwriting and some unexpectedly pretty choruses — results in a strong tracks that are more memorable than the work of many of their peers".[11] She did criticize the album for its simplicity, concluding, "Three Days Grace are definitely one of the most accessible alt-metal bands of the 2000s; they just need to add some more distinctiveness to their sound."[11]
To support the eponymous album, in 2003 Three Days Grace released its first single, "I Hate Everything About You", the song whose demo had gotten the band its record deal.[9] The song received heavy airplay and rapidly became a widely recognizable song.[12][13][14] being labeled as the band's "breakout hit".[15] After acquiring lead guitarist Barry Stock in late 2003,[7] Three Days Grace toured continuously and extensively for nearly two years in support of their major label debut.[6] The album peaked at number nine on the Canadian Albums Chart[16] and number 69 on the Billboard 200[17] and was certified platinum in the US by the RIAA in December 2004[18] and double platinum in Canada by the CRIA.[19] It was their only album under Bertelsmann Music Group.
One-X (2006–2008)
Around the time the band's first album became a mainstream success with the release of their first single, "I Hate Everything About You" followed by two more singles, "Just Like You" and "Home", lead singer Adam Gontier developed an addiction to the prescription Narcotic analgesic OxyContin. After finishing touring for their first album, the band knew they could not continue with the condition Adam was in, so in 2005, with the support of his family, friends and band members, Adam Gontier checked himself into the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH). While in treatment, Gontier, sad and discouraged, began writing lyrics for songs regarding how he felt and what he went through in rehabilitation.[20][21] Adam Gontier successfully completed treatment at CAMH; he and the band members felt that peace and tranquility would be required in order to record a successful second album. The band found just the place in Northern Ontario, in a cottage by themselves where they experimented, tested, and practiced songs. After three months at the cottage, they had about finished what would be on their second album. In the songs they would decide to include were lyrics that Gontier had scribbled in rehab. Adam had also posted lyrics to what was said to be a new song at the time. The first single from One-X, titled "Animal I Have Become", features lyrics Adam had written while getting sober. The second album contained at least four more songs which contain lyrics Adam wrote while in rehab, such as "Over and Over", "Gone Forever" and two more hit singles, "Pain" and "Never Too Late". In a 2006 interview, Gontier said that the album's material was more personal to him than the band's previous work because the material had come out of his experiences with despondence, drug abuse, and rehab that had constituted the past two years of his life.[21][22] The album, titled One-X, was then released on June 13, 2006,[22] and was guitarist Barry Stock's recorded debut.[6] Adam Gontier has even done solo live performances at various rehabilitation centres as a "thank you" to the people who helped him get through his addiction. In these performances, he would play songs like "Pain", "Animal I Have Become" and "Never Too Late" to encourage and motivate other people under treatment to push forward and get over their addiction.
One-X was met with mostly positive reviews. The Toronto Star complimented the album with a review title of "One CD worth buying..." and focused on its lyrics, saying, "The lyrics really speak out to you, especially if you're going through a tough time in your life."[23] Allmusic reviewer Corey Apar praised the music, saying it "remains catchy despite its lyrical darkness".[24] The album did receive some negative criticism. Apar pointed out that Three Days Grace is "hardly innovative" in their approach to writing music and that "further distinctive qualities" would help the band separate itself "from their alt-metal peers".[24]
One-X peaked at number two on the Canadian album chart[16] and at number five on the Billboard 200,[6] selling 78,000 copies in the US in its first week of release.[25] Its first single, "Animal I Have Become", was Three Days Grace's most successful, becoming 2006's most played rock song in Canada,[23] and the album helped propel Three Days Grace to become the number one rock artist in airplay in the US and Canada in 2007, with Billboard ranking them as the number one rock artist of the year in 2007.[26] One-X was certified platinum by the RIAA in the US on August 30, 2007,[18] and double platinum by the CRIA in Canada in July 2007.[26][27] Three Days Grace toured the US and Canada throughout the second half of 2006 and all of 2007 in support of One-X.[28] In early 2008, they toured alongside Seether and Breaking Benjamin across the US.[13][29] It was their first and only album under Sony BMG, the successor to the original Sony Music Entertainment & Bertelsmann Music Group. Two of the songs, "Animal I Have Become" and "Riot", off of the album were also featured in 2007's version of Smackdown vs Raw.[citation needed]
Life Starts Now (2009–2011)
From March to August 2008, to January to April 2009, Three Days Grace recorded their third album at The Warehouse Studio in Vancouver, British Columbia, and Los Angeles, with producer Howard Benson, who had worked with them on their previous releases.[26][30][31] The album, entitled Life Starts Now, was released on September 22, 2009. Critics as well as band members have noted the album's departure from the angry tone of the band's previous releases into a lyrical style that comes off as more optimistic.[32] According to guitarist Barry Stock, the album's theme centers around "a new sense of freshness" and the idea that "you don't have to be stuck in whatever it is you're dealing with. Whether it's good or bad, it's your choice to make a change."[30]
Life Starts Now debuted at number three on the Billboard 200, Three Days Grace's highest chart position, and sold 79,000 copies in its first week.[33] The album was met with mixed reviews. Ben Rayner of the Toronto Star gave the album a negative review, saying it possesses "no sound of its own, just a shallow range between Linkin Park and Nickelback".[34] According to Allmusic reviewer James Christopher Monger, who gave the album three out of five stars, Life Starts Now continues the theme of One-X, Gontier's personal demons, but with a "hint of sunlight".[32] He compliments the album, saying it "treats the well-worn metal themes of anger, isolation, heartache, and redemption with the kind of begrudging respect they deserve, pumping out a competent flurry of fist-bump anthems and world-weary, midtempo rockers".[32] Harsher negative reviews came from Ben Czajkowski from 411mania.com as he described the album as "Boring, bland, trite, tired, tried, and true".[35]
The first single from the album, "Break", was released on September 1, 2009.[26] Three Days Grace embarked on a 20-date Canadian tour lasting through November and December 2009.[36] They co-headlined a January–February 2010 tour of the US with Breaking Benjamin and Flyleaf.[37]
They embarked on a US headlining tour with support from Chevelle, and Adelitas Way starting on March 26, 2010 in Grand Rapids, Michigan and ending on April 16, 2010 in Springfield, Massachusetts.[citation needed]
The album was nominated for Best Rock Album at the 2010 Juno awards,[38] but lost to Billy Talent III.[citation needed]
Three Days Grace went on tour with Nickelback and Buckcherry on the Dark Horse Fall 2010 Tour. They toured with My Darkest Days starting in March 2011 in Seattle, Washington.[39] They also joined Avenged Sevenfold on their Spring "Welcome to the Family" tour in 2011.[citation needed] They toured with Avenged Sevenfold, Seether, Escape The Fate, and Bullet For My Valentine on the Rockstar Energy Drink Uproar tour from August 2011 to October 2011. It was their last album under Jive Records and their first album under Sony Music Entertainment after the Sony BMG joint venture ended, moving all former BMG labels to the new Sony Music Entertainment.
Transit of Venus and Gontier's departure (2012–present)
On October 7, 2011, RCA Music Group announced it was disbanding Jive Records along with Arista Records and J Records. With the shutdown, the band (and all other artists previously signed to these three labels) will release their future material (including their upcoming fourth studio album) on the RCA Records brand.[40][41]
On June 5, 2012, at 9:00 A.M. PST, the same day as Venus' visible transit across the sun, the band announced that their fourth studio album will be called Transit of Venus and that it is set to be released October 2, 2012.[42] They created an early promotional video that was released on their website, featuring clips of them in the studio as well as footage of the physical transit of Venus. Due to the rarity of this occurrence, they created the slogan, "some things will never happen again in your lifetime", reflecting both this uncommon occurrence as well as the mood that the lyrics and music will most likely take on.[42][43] The first single on the album, "Chalk Outline", was released August 14.[44]
On January 9, 2013, Three Days Grace announced that Adam Gontier was resigning from the band.[45] Brad's brother, Matt Walst of My Darkest Days, would be touring with the band as lead vocals. They cited Adam Gontier's sudden departure due to medical reasons.[45]
On January 16, 2013, it was reported that the band released details of Gontier's departure as being abrupt and unexplained.[46][better source needed] Later, contrary to belief that Gontier had turned again to his addictions, he explained that he was simply ready to start a new chapter in his life stating "after twenty years of being part of an ever evolving band, I have been inspired by life, to move on and to continue to evolve on my own terms."[47]
Three Days Grace kicked off their 2013 tour in Moline, IL along with Shinedown and P.O.D. with Matt Walst as touring lead singer; instead of Adam Gontier.[48] He is not an official member of Three Days Grace.[49]
