After touring across the US for
the better part of 2006 in
support of Three Days
Grace’s sophomore release
One X, the band has decided to
come home to Canada for a highly
anticipated headlining tour with
Theory of a
Deadman, Mobile, and
Idle Sons. Coming
off the success of a double
platinum self-titled release,
One X debuted at #2 and went
platinum in less than 4 weeks!
The first single “Animal I Have
Become” reached #1 on the rock
radio chart, and “Pain” is
climbing its way there now.
A raw, confessional album,
One-X, the follow up to THREE
DAYS GRACE’s 2003
self-titled debut, is
simultaneously the story of
front man Adam Gontier’s
personal destruction on the
road, and a universal tale of
feeling like an outsider. Part
of learning he was not alone
came from learning his band
mates felt similarly isolated,
dismayed with the falseness of
life on the road. One-X is a
roller coaster ride through
Gontier's psyche. Intensely
honest, Gontier leaves
nothing out; it sounds as if
he’s ripping pages from his
journal. THREE DAYS
GRACE has developed a new
sense of purpose; what started
out as fear and pain has led to
confidence and triumph.
There’s an old axiom in music
that says you have your whole
life to make your first record
and under a year to make your
second. This spells disaster for
the many bands that return from
touring, find themselves with
nothing left to say and fall
prey to the sophomore slump. But
for Vancouver, Canada’s
THEORY OF A DEADMAN,
going back into the rehearsal
studio was an opportunity to
experiment and grow into the
group they always dreamt of
being. Gasoline is the bands
second offering, and it’s
immediate and urgent without
sounding the least bit rushed.
Throughout, the band is
inventive and precise, drawing
influence from decades of rock
and making them personal and
passionate songs that range from
acoustic-based ballads to
electrified anthems. Excitement
shines through the entire album.
With such a good attitude and
such strong material, THEORY
OF A DEADMAN doesn’t need
luck. They’ve just gotta pour
out the Gasoline, and watch it
burn.
Check out Three Days
Grace and Theory of a
Deadman live in Victoria
with special guests Mobile
and idle Sons.
