Alright I did. Thanks.


A little off topic, but does anyone know off hand how this album did review-wise for other sites and magazines? My guess would be that they hated it, but sometimes they surprise you.

Album Rating: 2.5

The third studio album from Canadian arena rockers Three Days Grace treads familiar ground, presenting 12 slabs of the kind of reliable, accessible and serviceable hard rock that will always have an audience. 2006's One-X dealt heavily with vocalist Adam Gontier's personal demons, a theme that continues on Life Starts Now, albeit with a hint of sunlight. With a sound that lands somewhere in between Breaking Benjamin, Collective Soul, and Godsmack, (Gontier sounds like a less volatile Trent Reznor) Life Starts Now 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 ("Break," "Bully") and world-weary, midtempo rockers ("World So Cold," "Last to Know" that are so painfully earnest that one can almost hear director Michael Bay pitching them to the studio for inclusion on the soundtracks for his next ten Transformers sequels.




From allmusic guide who gave it a 3/5

Uh wow, Three Days Grace wasn't on any of the Transformers soundtracks. Maybe they mistaked them for that Cavo band.

Good review. Album is average. One-X was pretty good.

Thanks, sadly I have to say that this falls a little bit below their debut.

I'd be surprised if they wrote all of the songs on here by themselves. Then again, they probably didn't write all of the songs on ANY of their albums by themselves. This is simply a mass produced pop album hiding under a more distorted sheen. At least One-X hit a LITTLE harder than this.

why is it that every time a band incorporates guitar solos for the first time, they only have one in the entire album? i swear the only actual solo on this album is in Bitter Taste.
