==History==
===Three Days Grace (2003-2005)===
Upon completion of their first album, self-titled ''Three Days Grace'', the band recruited [[Barry Stock]] to help with lead guitar to give Adam breathing room on stage and on tour.<ref name="rd"/> The album's lead single, "[[I Hate Everything About You]]" reached number two on the US Modern Rock and number four on the Mainstream Rock charts and number two on the Canadian Rock charts (because of local radio play at The Wolf 101.5 FM). Their second single "[[Just Like You]]" gave the group a second number-one in Canada and also hit number one on rock charts in the US. This was soon followed by the release of the single "[[Home (Three Days Grace song)|Home]]" which also turned out to be a radio success.
In 2004, [[Gavin Brown (musician)|Gavin Brown]] won a Juno Award for his production work on Three Days Grace and "[[Try Honesty]]" by [[Billy Talent]].
===One-X (2006-present)===
In 2005, the lead singer of Three Days Grace, Adam Gontier, was sent into rehab for an addiction to the pain killer [[Oxycontin]]. During rehab, Adam had written several songs and once he returned to the band in 2006, they released the album [[One-X]]. It includes "[[Pain (Three Days Grace song)|Pain]]", "[[Animal I Have Become]]", "[[Riot (song)|Riot]]", "[[Never Too Late (Three Days Grace song)|Never Too Late]]", "Over and Over" and "Get Out Alive".
In 2007, Adam recorded a song called "I Don't Care" with the band [[Apocalyptica]]. The entire band is currently on tour with [[Breaking Benjamin]] and [[Seether]], two similar modern rock bands. Also, live, Adam has sung with Seether in the song "[[Broken]]". He sings it as a duet by singing [[Amy Lee]]'s part. In addition, Adam teamed with Breaking Benjamin's [[Benjamin Burnley]] to sing "Dance With the Devil" on tour. Currently, they are working on a new album which may arrive in stores in the fall of this year or spring of the next.
