Album of the weekend

Three Days Grace-Self titled

This album is darker than people give it credit for. Frequent references to drug abuse, dislike and distrust of authority-am I saying it's like a gritty Dead Kennedys album? Of course not, but it's a little more intense than your average early millennium alt-rock band.

It's really good too. I think Three Days Grace are among the better bands from that era even though they aren't very popular. They took the grunge sound that ended in the 90's and gave it a quick revival. The music from that era was dominated by Korn and Limp Bizkit-bands that, love them or hate them, were not grunge or alternative sounding. Three Days Grace provides a different sound than what was popular at that time period.
