THREE DAYS GRACE

The members of Three Days Grace are riding the wave of success with their song "I Hate Everything about You", but the band doesn't want to fade away after the song has had its run. Singer Adam Gontier says the band really concentrates on making sure they will be around for years to come.

GONTIER: "We spend so much time on this band that we... we all just have the passion to put in the time and the effort to really just sit down and say, 'How can we make this even better,' you know, 'How can we reach out to our fans more and in more creative ways, and how can we step the live show up even more every night so that it just... You know, keeping a conscious effort on all of those things I think just keeps you building and keeps us evolving as artists. And we're fortunate to have all 4 members equally pushing towards the same goals of just, 'How can we keep going and just like take this as far as possible.'"

Three Days Grace are currently on tour with Nickelback in Canada.

FLAW

The band Flaw came onto the rock scene a few years ago with the songs "Payback" and "Whole". After changing drummers, Flaw recorded their sophomore album with producer David Botrill of Tool fame. The band has set aside May 4th as the release date of their as-yet-untitled new effort.
