Adam Gontier returns to Three Days Grace

2024-10-03 by Sarah | 59 Comments
Adam Gontier is officially back in Three Days Grace.

The band posted a snippet of a phone call between Gontier and current singer Matt Walst about being late to the studio, indicating that some sort of work was being done between the two parties, ending with the message "Three Days Grace 2x".

The following day, the band announced that Gontier was officially returning on vocals. His replacement, Matt Walst, will continue with the band as the two will share vocal duties.

We're excited to announce the official return of Adam Gontier to vocals in Three Days Grace, with Matt Walst remaining as a lead vocalist, as well.

Gontier stated "I feel like it's been seamless, better than we were expecting. It’s like we got back in a room together and picked up where we left off. We have been friends for so long it's kind of natural to get back in the room together", while Walst stated that "it's been so much fun and inspiring making this record. Combining over 20 years of Three Days Grace and doing something that no band has ever done. I'm excited for the fans to hear it!"

I'm not really a fan of the band, but admittedly this is a really novel idea - the duality between both vocalists could be good, and it was a unique decision

Not like I'm not surprised at all, tho I expected this to happen.
Looking forward to hear some new recordings. Band screwed up only one LP, so I'm positive.

@c0nf1n3d The duality might also benefit the band onstage, 'cause we'll either hear both guys handling their respective songs or Adam's takes on Matt's lines. Both options good.

Cool, but it's not like the last stuff they made before he left the band was great. Matt has been deadweight since he joined though.

I guess it will be an improvement over... whatever the hell rock radio has subjected us to over the past several years?

Why do they need two singers?

I know you shouldn't really kick a band member out for no reason, but if Adam is back what is the point in keep Walst around? Usually you only have 2 vocalists if each bring something different to the table, but in this case they both have the same style.

They might just want to work together whether it's logical or not. Or it's a cash grab, because "the OG singer is back, so people should be hyped".

I agree they don't need Matt.
Adam is probably the best vocalist in the post-grunge sphere. Honestly would love if he just cut a bit more loose sometimes and scream, but oh well it is what it is.

Yes no other band has ever combined 20 years of Three Days Grace experience and I'm grateful for that.

Devil Sold his Soul are fuegs, at least before their most recent release which was a bland piece of shite. But their old stuff absolutely banged.

2 singers here is unnecessary and the replacement was weak af anyway and needs to be let go. But old Three days grace was the best of the best at doing what it did I hate Everything about you one of best middle school bangers ever made. To not like it is to deny all your most basic instincts and clearly animal you have not become. People who try not to like it are pretentious d-mongers and I can’t respect you whatsoever because you’re an insecure liar wanting to be beyond judgment and you soft. Garrrr Peterrrr.
