Adam Gontier on Leaving Three Days Grace and Getting Sober

Love Adam Gontier voice, favourite frontman for Three Days Grace. Good luck Adam, love and blessings from Canada🍁 ❤

[@brandonray8409]

It’s good to hear they are all on good terms! Adam is by far top 3 of my favorite rock vocalist ! I happen to be 9 years sober from opiate addiction and 3dg music helped me through a lot . If anyone says music can’t guide you to be sober they are wrong !

I've listened to these guy's most of my life and never watched any interviews or anything like that. Seeing this is going to make those songs hit even harder now. I struggled with addiction for 8 years I listened to literally everything and play guitar as well. But im a metal head at heart and theirs something about Adam's voice when I heard home for the very first time. It gave me chills! Every word he just absolutely freaking meant! Almost a year sober. Thank you adam for the good music man. Stay healthy and good bud.

It would be so cool if he got Benjamin Burnley from Breaking Benjamin on the show!

Great guy! And what a voice. Glad he’s doing so well!

[@TheharshMoon]

I am so proud of you, Adam. You and Three Days Grace are still my role models for my musical passion. The riffs, the percussion, and of course your one-of-a-kind voice. I’m grateful that you’re still with us. We’ve lost too many good people, and we can’t lose you too. I hope you read this because everyone needs a little pick-me-up, even if you want to keep it in the back pocket. Love ya dude! Stay strong and positive for yourself and family. You’re important and we love you.

[@CorynthianLeather]

The song 'Never too Late' didnt just bring meaning to a life i felt was empty, but reminds every year that no matter how old i get, i can still right my wrongs. With Adam's mesmerizing vocals that song has been with me for 2 decades practically

So unspeakably amazing to see one of my first heros get through his battles to come out an even better man. 🖤 happy for you Adam.

[@CaitlinJones8907]

Oh I absolutely was one of the ppl in the crowd in Nashville crying. Granted my crying was more so the healing beginning with music therapy, but that concert changed some things for me for sure. So excited to go see them with Distrubed.

[@scubasteve7022]

Its so hard to get through addiction. So much so that not many people actually do it. Good for Adam for putting his kids first. 👏

[@GR-fo6sk]

I had tickets to three days grace. I was looking forward to hearing Adam. They got on stage, and it was a different singer. I remember being so pissed... I would never have gone if I knew Adam left. I left during the first song.

[@AudiophileTubes]

'Animal I Have Become' is a bona fide MASTERPIECE! What an effing song! MASTERCLASS!

[@marmotafericita8753]

Glad he's back

[@altheaharvey147]

In 2009 Three Days Grace was the last band playing the Jamboree in Tinley Park. I had to leave to catch the last train back to Chicago, plus it was raining sooo hard. (No Ubers back then.)Then I later read that Adam left the band. I was so heartbroken. I never got over it. When my cousin died this band helped me heal. I can't wait to see them next year in Chicago!!! ❤

[@13mermediabloom]

So beautiful person and voice I still remember the solo live in Greece 🎉❤I hope a day to see him again

[@annetteslife]

I saw Three Days Grace a few years ago while working as a festival employee, they were great

[@mirogeorgiev1156]

I dont know if he realise how his songs impacted so many people.

[@jeomemo]

Thats cool to see him back with the band and doing well and sober, I remember TDG from the early 2000's scene I wasn't really into the band back then, but I did like the radio singles they released at the time. also I know how tuff it is to let go of that bottle its a constant battle and I wish him well to keep winning the battle.

[@MakePeopleMadForFun]

He said it wasn’t even alcohol it was pills 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@uberfu]

TDG is not the same band without Adam. I've heard versions of the arly songs sung by Matt and he doesn't even come close. Honestly TDG should've taken a hiatus and simply renamed the current lineup something lese until if/when Adam ever returned. Bands don't realize that along with their "sound" (instruments+timing etc ...) that theiir vocalist is as much a part of that sound and identity as anything else.

[@uberfu]

Sorry but all I can hear when TDG > I Am Machine / Painkiller come on is Porn Star Dancing and it's just not the band that became famous.

[@DRAVENTHUNDERKISSED]

I've seen them live and Matt does not have the range to sing the classics.

[@Zalwalloo]

​@uberfu some of the other stuff, sure but Human? Hating Human is just hating for the sake of hating on Matt, and Matt didn't do anything to deserve the hate, he's not the one who left Three Days Grace.

[@matthewdimperio589]

Does no one remember Adam quit mid tour claiming health conditions (heart problems) then a month later formed a new band and went on tour soon after with them. Now it's all about a addiction issue. This guy is a tool, his new band flopped and he wants to re connect because he is broke or bored now.

Drug addicts have some of the best Fukin music it’s suck cause it comes from pain but god damn does it sound so sweet to my ears. Stay strong brother

[@KornKobb]

Every video about Adam and three days grace just has the most pathetic comment section. People always say “Adam was three days grace!” No. He wasn’t. He was great for the band and he’s a great guy but he isn’t the band itself, everyone plays their part. People refuse to listen to three days grace because Adam isn’t in it and it’s just pathetic that someone would purposely miss out on some great music just because they changed vocalists.

[@spade-night]

Well acting like vocals and songwriting isnt like half the battle is also ignorant, sure they have some stuff since he left but acting like all they're big hits aren't from the Adam era and that they weren't more successful with Adam is just a lie

I'm just not a fan of Matt's voice. It just doesn't have a style I personally enjoy. I have tried giving an effort to listen but I just can't get into it. It is not the 3DG I listened to and fell in love with. Adam's voice and style is what gave 3DG it's sound and energy.

I saw Adam when he was still with TDG in 2012 at what was then called the Pepsi Center in Denver, opening with Buckcherry for Nickelback. We got 2 encores that night from TDG, we didn't ask for an endow from Nickelback 😂 I would sh*t a brick if I could see Adam singing with TDG again. That would be amazing. My oldest who is 10 heard of my first concert and i got him into TDG (pre-Matt), and he would flip as well.

Adam provided unique vocals that stood out. Current singer is generic and easily lost in the crowed

[@yourdailydoseofnegativity8964]

Before you all freak out… I am NOT saying Matt is a bad singer. Not by a damn sight. HOWEVER… nobody can replace Adam. His voice was so unique, you knew it was him singing immediately. Matt on the other hand, yes he is a great singer, but his voice is just very generic. He sounds like every other vocalist in that genre. Again, he is NOT bad so don’t start crying

[@Zalwalloo]

I mean, the only similar one to Matt I've heard was Matthew Tuck from Bullet. I had actually thought Riot by Bullet for my Valentine was a new Three Days Grace at first or old MDD at first, Matthew's "RIOT!" sounds very similar to Matt's. While Adam sounds like Finger eleven singer Scott Anderson
