Them and several other bands (like Godsmack, Egypt Central, Atom Smash, Theory Of A Deadman, etc...) tend to be classified as post-grunge. Most are also referred to as alternative metal.

[@spyretto]

Alternative? Alternative to what, this is as mainstream as it gets. It's also heavy. REM are alt-rock. Hooty and the Blowfish is alt-rock. This is Emo/Screamo.

Brad was almost right when he mentioned that it might have been about depression. I was hoping that the two of you would work it out, and sure enough, less than a second later Lex mentioned addiction. This song is, indeed, about addiction. The lead singer wrote it while he was in rehab for an addiction to pain killers. It's all about the rage and anger the addiction grew in him, as well as the fear that he would never be able to overcome it.

[@mistrants2745]

Oh god this was from the early days of my alternative period when i was like 15 years old... Right into metal after this.

[@nickc7735]

For me, this song about not able to break the cycle of addiction.

[@darkduane1]

For me it's about being in a bad relationship with a girlfriend or even with controlling parents and not being able to control your anger when arguments kick off.

[@dot6658]

From the internet: The song itself is about Adam Gontier, the lead singer of Three Days Grace. He wrote it when he was at the Toronto Rehab Center Centre for Addiction and Mental Health for his Oxycontin addiction.

[@richardwaller4223]

This song is from the album "One X" and this is one of my earliest memories of my travel into rock n rolls territory. You could pick any song from this album, let it rip, and ill be HERE for it. 😤🔥🎸

[@ashleyjones8597]

Did these guys just call Three days grace an emo band? I almost died on the spot, lol. Three Day's Grace (along with Breaking Benjamin) are like the default faces of post-grunge era Hard Rock, lol.

[@XZAVIER-DAA-GOD]

3DG is a multiple of things, They just had the emoish look in One X

[@deathbyslipknot]

I mean they did dabble in emo at times, let's be honest. They're not an emo band but they certainly had those elements with the image and some of the lyrics. Nothing wrong with that

[@jgee9272]

It has been ages since I've heard that opening bassline.... wow. Awesome Reaction!

[@hazepheno925]

Emo kind of had it's meaning taken over in the late 90s early Y2ks, with popularity of stores like Hot Topic. If you want to hear what actual "EMO" sounds like, listen to something like Mineral - 'Gloria'. The whole Power of Failing album is pretty much in your face, angst ridden emo. The term emo was used originally as derogetoriy. Ian Mackaye (DC, Dischord Records) went from a band that had fairly aggressive music and concerts, to a band like Embrace. Which was far from Minor Threats incredibly influential sound.

[@justhere2115]

This filled my goth, shy kid in the back of the classroom soul. I wore as much black baggy clothing as possible. I didn’t wear black makeup or nails, but this was the sound of my soul

[@coreyz.2800]

This song, to me, is all about the anger and how it can make you into someone else. For me, especially when I was younger, I could be the nicest guy you've ever met but when I was pushed too far and got mad, I was a completely different person. I wasn't like violent or anything like that, but when I was "chill" I was an observer who took note of so many little things and when I got mad I knew exactly what to say, what dark secret or hidden insecurity to target, to verbally tear someone to pieces. And I was cold about it. Looking back I wonder if it would have been better if I had been prone to taking a swing at someone instead. My scrawny self wouldn't have been able to do nearly as much damage physically as my words did emotionally and mentally.

[@paxtonpomykal2293]

This was in raw Vs smackdown 2007 so the main bit is stuck in my head

[@taylorhowser6467]

My biggest thing with songs like this is not connecting with the lyrics like I could be on my way to go do something fun with a smile on my face and listen to something like this. That’s why I love songs like this where the music makes sense to me.

[@george3710]

Dang I wasn’t into this brand music until groups like 3 days grace Incubus hinder PATD etc…I was hiphop only fan…imho this was a great branch of rock/alt.rock not to mention just great songs all the top comments have the big recommendations which are great but I like a lot of their stuff that didn’t always get RADIO play: Get out alive, Pain, Time of Dying, Just Like You, & Riot man the whole 1-X Album was just… 🔥 🔥 🔥 & the lead singer was good I can’t even tell sometimes whether it’s voice overlay or just his own intonation happy to see u guys reactin to this group I value y’all’s unique perspectives bc u really try to understand or dissect songs authentically

[@Frostrazor]

this "sound" is one of the more recent radio sounds. Very popular sound and these bands are a dime-a-dozen that sound just like this. Some really good - some not good at all. This one of the good ones. The best one by far is Breaking Benjamin. Saw both Benjamin and 3 days Grace in concert together. Grace was good - but Benjamin put on one of the best lives shows I've seen in a long time - and their drummer is frkn amazing!!

[@de14jabs]

[@christopherdavidson4382]

Bonus points for Lex!!! The song is about addiction and the songwriter's struggles with it

[@keno6697]

So actually, his singing style is or was one of the most unique vocal fries that this and previous generations has seen in a while, Adams pitch with the absolute fried vocals that he can produce is still something 10 years on going I’ve been trying to replicate, While it’s easy to make the sound, being able to control it/increase pitch simultaneously while also screaming is just insanely commendable, One of if not the most recognizable voices in post grunge/metal scene back in the mid 2000s, It’s not nasal, it’s very diaphragm reliant and pure genetic due to the naturalness of it!

[@04m6gto]

So many good songs from TDG. More, please!

[@nickortiz5072]

Lex hit it pretty well. In 2006, this was a Hot Topic vibe. Not the emo vibe others were going for but this album, One-X, was massive and I bought it from that store. Then tattooed it on my foot. Lol

[@ericcsinger]

I would say give “unbreakable heart” a listen. Such a powerful song

[@michaelpatterson7990]

I saw these guys in 2008 with Econoline Crush and Seether, great show. One X is an amazing album. The singer was replaced almost a decade ago I think.

[@danielheffern7756]

Their self-titled album is by far the best. Every track is great, but I would recommend Home, Wake Up, or I Hate Everything About You

this is one of my favorite alt rock bands of all time. Adam's voice is unlike anyone else. I wouldn't have chosen this song as your first time though.

If you were wondering what the song is about it's about the lead singer Adam Gontier's struggle with drug abuse and addiction

[@CalamariPlaysStarfield]

This song is about Adam (the singer) being addicted to drugs and alcohol, and not knowing what's he's becoming because of the drugs and alcohol and not being able to get away from the addiction. It's one of my classical favorites, plus it's off one of my favorite albums by them being One X

Yeah I have been leaving comments for a while now that they need to check out Breaking Benjamin. I have never heard one song they have done that I didn't like. I think that Lex will really enjoy that lead singer's voice. I listen to a lot of various music but there is something about Breaking Benjamin that is unique to me. I hope to see them doing some Papa Roach songs as well. Seems like everybody is suggesting songs for them now.

[@runyunhyde4373]

You will get many requests for songs by Three days Grace. Chalk outline is my favorite. The riff is 🔥

[@Kru5ty.]

Emo kinda but it was mostly considered hard rock. The song itself brings me back to my teen years. RAISE YOUR VOICE movie in 2004 is where is first heard them. The singer Adam Gontier had serious alcohol issues and minor prescription drug issues so a lot of songs on this album (One - X) represented that. In my own personal opinion the most important song on the album is the first song titled "It's All Over".

[@joshuatirado99]

[@howarddavis6894]

I haven't thought about it much until now, but our lack of discipline make us more susceptible to high dopamine producing activities, which is highly addictive. Before we know it, we end up caught up in a rut of impulse driven decisions that require no more intellect than what our reptilian survival brain needs. We keep going through not checking our impulsive desires, spending time constantly doing the habits that keep our dopamine levels low due to constant stimulation. In this state, it's safe to say a person is nothing more than an animal, just surviving enough to satisfy the addictions. Dopamine can be abused via simply by being constantly and overly entertained just as much as it can be abused by doing drugs. Addiction is a horrendous existence I deal with myself. Constantly looking for ways out, but always falling right back in. "Comfort is a mystery, crawling out of my own skin.
