I recently went to a Nickelback concert and Three Days Grace was opening for them. I fell in love with the band hearing their music at the concert and felt that Nickelback should opening for Three Days Grace, not the other way around!

goes downhill after "Home"

Canada is famous for producing mainly three things: Nickelback, insanely cheap prescriptions, and Three Days Grace. This quartet of Canadian rockers really know how to keep you listening... til about track 4. Then, the rest of the CD is just filler. Here are my favorite tracks, in order:

1) Home: In my opinion, the best Three Days Grace song ever. I really identify with some of the lyrics: "I'll be coming home just to be alone... no matter how hard I try, you're never satisfied... I can hardly wait til you get off my case!!" Relatively easy to learn on guitar, too.

2) Just Like You: Second-best TDG song ever. Also, the only song I can do halfway good on drums.

3) Burn: Average, but still good.

4) (I Hate) Everything About You: Way too overplayed, but still a good song; I really like the video.

Other than tracks 1-4, you really don't need to get this debut CD. It's good, yeah, but it can be better.

Three Days Grace

This album is an excellent debut disk for Three Days Grace. Their hits come early in the album and the undiscovered songs is a jewel that people that only download their music will never find. However some of the music could be helped out if it was more complex. If you liked this CD then I would buy Three Day's Grace's sophmore album One-X Which they bring in a second guitar player, and expand on their strengths.

I've always loved them!

One of my favorite rock albums.

You know how many times you go to a concert to see a certain band/musician play and you really just want to get through the opening acts to get to the real deal? And you know how sometimes you'll be half listening to an opening act and on the rare occasion you end up actually liking the opening act? Well that was the case a couple years ago when I saw Three Days Grace open for one of my favorite bands. The day after the concert, I bought this album.

Here's a list of songs on the album as well as my rating for each song:

Burn-3.5/5
Just Like You-3.5/5
I Hate Everything About You-4.5/5
Home-4/5
Scared-4/5
Let You Down-3/5
Now or Never-3.5/5
Born Like This-3/5
Drown-3.5/5
Wake Up-4.5/5
Take Me Under-3/5
Overrated-3.5/5

Whether you're a casual fan, a big fan, or just a lover of good music, this album is one that you'll be playing constantly and for quite some time. I became a lover of the band shortly after "Just Like You", the band's second single was released. Although "Just Like You" is a good song, their other singles "I Hate Everything About You" and "Home" truly portray what I think the band is all about-catchy choruses and absolutely stunning guitar work.

In terms of lyrics, I like that it's not completely clear what the songs mean. There are a few (most notably "Wake Up" and "I Hate Everything About You") that suggest much of their songs are about a dysfunctional relationship. However, most of their songs allow the listener to interpret the lyrics as they see fit.

Kicking off the album is "Burn", an accurate portrayal of what the rest of the album sounds like. With its thunderous intro and extended ending, "Burn" is an excellent opener for an excellent album.

From there we go to the three singles (as previously mentioned). All three are great songs but "I Hate..." is one of my favorites on the album. Something about the harmonized chorus and powerful words make me skip straight to it everytime I play this CD.

A few of my favorite songs on this album are up next. "Scared"'s kicking guitar intro and Adam's shouting are a perfect blend for this song. "Now or Never" is strong with its deep lyrics. And "Wake Up", probably the softest sounding song (although the acoustic intro is the only reason why it's "soft"). Next to "I Hate" and "Scared", "Wake Up" is one of my absolute favorites.

The only lowlights on this album are "Let You Down" and "Take Me Under". "Let You Down" isn't horrible but compared to the other songs on the album, it's certainly not that great either. "Take Me Under" is too "light" for my taste but, again, it's not a horrible song.

Ending the album are three more good songs. "Born Like This" is creepy in a really good way. Its constantly changing rhythms and loads of bass make it a winner. "Drown" is one of the deeper songs on the album and its chorus is excitingly catchy. And lastly, "Overrated" is the angriest song and it's also definitely one that you must blast in order to appreciate.

Would I recommend this album? If you like hard rock mixed with awesome lyrics and extremely catchy guitar work, this self-titled album is a must have.

old skool goodness...

i bought this album whenever it first came out. it's definitely old skool three days grace. but, it's awesome to see how far they've come. i don't think a music collection would be complete w/o it.
