Adam's voice is top notch, as always, but the album as a whole seems generic. Lyrically, the album gets very simplistic at times. "Better Place" is probably the weakest single Adam ever did.rI'm really glad he continued to make music, but this album could've been so much more.rHighlights: "King of Nothing", "Dying slowly", "Happy Tragedy"

Saint Asonia is a rock supergroup that's comprised of band members from Staind, Finger Eleven, and of course Three Days Grace, with lead vocalist Adam Gontier representing his now-former outfit. If there's one thing these three acts have in common, it's that they're not so great in regards to songwriting and lasting appeal - but if you look on the brightside, all the bands do have their share of genuinely nice songs. So what of Saint Asonia, this project's self-titled debut record? Well, if anyone has gone out of their way to hear anything from the aforementioned entourages, you as the consumer know what you're in for. Gontier's voice still manages to be very commendable and the instrumentation works fairly well given this band's approach to music, even though it's all too predictable and familiar. You can argue that Saint Asonia's general style of alternative metal merged with radio rock sensibilities sounds about as dry as Will Smith's performance in After Earth at this point, although the former isn't bad by comparison. The album as a whole can be preferred over TDG's latest on any given week, and it can't be too difficult to top that.

It's like One X and 14 Shades of Grey had a child. A couple good tracks but outside of the nostalgia, there's nothing of substance here.

You know what you're getting into if you have any familiarity with the other members' main projects, but there's still some enjoyable moments. It's all very much alt metal/hard rock by numbers and one would hope that in future they'll try to do something JUST A LITTLE BIT different. But don't hold out much hope for that. If you like some plain old inoffensive rock then you'll enjoy this, but for those looking for something a little different, look elsewhere.
