If Adam would come back to Three Days Grace it would be the biggest Reunion and success in rock/metal history.
99% of us fans would cry of happiness.
Please Adam come home 🤘🥹
Oh no doubt!!!
I doubt it would be the biggest reunion ever lmao
Pues Seria De Lo Que Más Desearía En My Life
Sadly, I don’t think it will ever happen. Adam has moved on and is in a new chapter in his life
I agree I would take my daughter to see three days grace
I'm so damn proud of this conversation. Adam is one of my all time favorite vocalists and he's truly a great dude. This is one I will always remember. I hope you guys enjoy it. ❤
Rockfeed- you are literally the New Kurt Loder
Dude listen to the songs "Groove Machine" and "Fade" by King's X and then go listen to the song "Just Like You" from Three Days Grace. I always wondered if "Just Like You" was influenced by those 2 King's X songs!
I love Adam so much, he's my favorite of all time. He's helped me through so much. ❤
Good content brother, keep up the good work
I met Adam a few times. He's a very nice person. How could you forget his covers of wicked game and chain, he does them so perfectly.
I want Adam back in Three Days Grace too. I think I might cry myself if that happened
❤🔥👍❤🔥
We all would dude
@@DarkOfLightOfficial😭
Matt has carved out a great career taking over for Adam and I’m sure Adam is perfectly content with Saint Asonia.
@Zoroarkillusion
Exactly!
Adam, Matt, Barry, Neil & Brad have nothing left to prove to anyone!
Everyone just needs to let it be and be happy for all of them!
if he does rejoin 3DG i will start listening to them again. He made the band.
Me too
@scottstefani7876 Matt is good, too. Three Days Grace isn't as shitty like Slipknot or Nightwish because Adam Gontier left on his own. Corey Taylor made the original members leaving or fired them. Tarja Turunen was fired.
@@XTREAMER3850 the original members died? wym lol
@@livingoffchildsupport1542you do realize Corey Taylor is not the original singer of slipknot right?
@@XTREAMER3850 3dg was never the same without adam and the popularity of the band shows this. now when it come to slipknot and nighwish well that is what happens when art becomes business.
One-X is one of my favorite albums. That album really helped me a lot during my darkest moments. It actually kind of saved my life. Adam Gontier is one of the greatest vocalists in rock.
Definitely in a Top 10 with Chester Bennington, David Draiman, Jacoby Shaddix, John Cooper, Shaun Morgan and other male singers of the 00s
He is the greatest alive 😊
One x and phobia from breaking Ben. Was a good year!
When Adam left I followed 😂 he will always have a soft spot with me he's one of my fav lead man period
It’s like Howard jones fork kill switch engage , he left but I followed 😂
Adam Gontier saved my life.
Barney the big pink elephant saved mine
Not Matt Walst ?
@@AnthonyHeadway Matt needs to go back to MDD
Me too 😊
Adam is so loved even 20 Years later.
My favorite part of the interview was when Adam is talking about a potential reunion with 3G and acknowledged that the it’s hard to just set aside the amount of good their music did for the world. His music changed my life and spoke to me in a way I needed at that time in my life. I am not unique.
I was a massive 3DG fan when I was a little boy, I mean massive. When he left the band, I was so devastated and hurt. I didn’t listen to 3DG for 5 years after he left cause I refused to give Matt Walst a chance. But I warmed up to the guy and gave him a chance finally and 3DG is still good! I hope one day Adam goes back.
Imagine if they did a duo lead singer with Adam and Matt (like Linkin Park). It would be the most exciting news in modern rock history.
I still refuse. It's not as good imo.
Can tell guy is super honest & doesn’t say a bad thing about others.
Im permanently on pills. You got my daughter to seek help through never too late. Adam, you will never know how many you helped.
Adam is the best voice in rock music, period. He lives and breathes music and you feel his passion and emotions in every song. Sharing his life and experiences with us has helped so many people, its evident in the comments.. and yet, he stays so humble. ❤
His the greatest 😊
3DG has been a opening act since he left. Hope he comes back. I saw them on their one X tour when i was a kid. It was badass
Adam looks great, happy, and healthy.
I’m 63 years old , i have always been a rocker when Adam left 3DG that was one of the biggest disappointments I can ever remember in rock ‘n’ roll and I really hope they get back together. Even though they have done ok separately …. They are magic when they’re together that we all love. Let’s all hope those stars align.
I'm 194
If Adam does I do want him to sing along with mat
Adam is iconic. Can't say the same for the other guy.
To be honest, it stung a little bit when he said he had been using when he left Three Days Grace, because back when it first happened, he completely denied relapsing, but on the other hand, I’m just glad everything is good between them now, and it’s nice to see him taking accountability for the way he left. It really shows how much he has grown since then, and he seems to be the happiest he has ever been.
Yes! You nailed it. He was on FB and thank god that he was sober and said it was basically creative direction differences. Good point--i think he has grown up and come a long way
Adam, I grew up listening to you during your Three Days Grace days. Let me just say that you leaving the band had the greatest impact on me. I’ve never seen you perform live and that is one of my biggest regrets. I hope Saint Asonia can come to Montreal so I can finally hear you and possible meet you.
You are truly a gifted artist.
Thank you for making music that can really make someone FEEL.
One of the best singers out there, hands down. Doesn’t matter what band he’s in, it’s all good. Would be cool and nostalgic for a full 3DG reunion.
His incredible 😊
You should be proud! What an incredible conversation. Adam Gontier is probably the biggest vocalist/lyricist of my life, in the 2000s. Those 2 albums were just different and meant the world to me. I was devastated when he left, but I’m so glad that he was able to get himself together and save himself. Ironically, the other most important vocalist to me from the 90s was Scott Weiland, whose bands you also discussed. I was wrecked when we lost him. Don’t know how I would’ve handled Adam too. Thank you for this. ♥️
And I didn’t immediately go turn on One-X the second the interview was over…
The biggest vocalist of the 2000s is Chester Bennington, but Adam Gontier is in the top, with David Draiman, Jacoby Shaddix, Jonathan Davis and the list continues
I said of MY LIFE. Music is subjective and you’re entitled to your opinion. I loved Linkin Park, but prefer Three Days Grace. With Adam. I don’t listen to them now.
Justin Timberlake is so lucky that he got to meet Adam .
Hopefully we can get a 3DG and saint asonia tour with Adam singing for both bands
Since Matt is 3dg, maybe they could switch a few songs, and even have Matt do some Saint Asonia songs. I'd love to hear his take of Devestate or Blow Me Wide Open
BABE, WAKE UP. NEW ADAM GONTIER INTERVIEW BY ROCKFEED
Amazing interview!!! I met Adam touring on his debut 3DG album and again with Saint Asonia. He is so so nice . And of course so so talented. I have 3 copies of One X cd. Lol ❤
Adam is one of the best musician, singer and composer in the current world music. I love his voice so much and I love lyrics of his songs. I wish him a lot of good luck in all but he doesn.t need luck when is a great artist with a great talent like him. I admire him so much and love his music alone, with TDG and with Saint Asonia. I really think Adam has bern, is and will be a real legen like musician and one of the best Rock voice like Eddie Vedder, Chris Cornell, Layne Stanley, Chester Bennington..Adam and Eddie are the last Grunge musician we have bc I think Adam is able to play and to sing all kind of music but I think his soul and his voice is Grunge forever and ever. Hugs and kisses Adam. I wish you the best and I hope all things will be fine in your life and I hope you enjoy a lot of your music and your family and friends and I wish you will be as happy as possible. 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
I remember seeing Three Days Grace at U Street Music Hall in DC a couple months before Adam left the band. It was an amazing concert, I am so glad my parents let me go lol. Neil Sanderson also did an epic drum solo that I will always remember. Adam pushed his vocals to the limit, it was just crazy. I'm so thankful that I have that memory and inspiration to carry with me in all of my musical endeavors.
I often wondered what "Leaving Minnesota" was about - makes sense now with Adam's wife being from there ❤
That was an awesome interview. Saint Asonia is one of my favourite bands ever, and Adam is my favourite vocalist.
This man voiced my childhood I started listening to Three Days Grace back in 2006 when One-X came out and I was 10!!!!
One X is my favorite album of all time, will go down as THE, best record in my opinion.
100% agree
one x is my favorite album of all time, it's one of these unique peaces of music that can save lives.
Love this guy so much huge fan of him adam and that will never change 😊
I’m glad they’re all friends again, life is too short to still hate each other. now If only bands who have been around much longer than them for example kiss could do this.
Я рада видеть Адама в добром здравии. Очень хочется снова увидеть его выступления вживую. Спасибо Rock feed за такое тёплое и дружеское интервью. Узнала что то новое 🤘
Cant wait for a TDG album with Adam. Love his Saint Asonia stuff already
I am hoping and waiting for the day to see Adam back in 3DG. I will be there screaming the words once again if that occurs, let’s hope their stars align soon 🤘🏻🔥, this was a great interview
Adam is one of my favorite rock/metal vocalists. The 4 3DG albums he was a part of will always be on my playlists. I like alot of the new Matt 3DG songs, but I just personally view them as a different band with a different vocalist. If Adam rejoined or made more 3DG music, I'd be super hype. And Saint Asonia is a great band, check them out if you haven't listened to them. But they are purposefully a different style then 3DG, as Adam wanted to do a bit heavier stuff.
But him with the other guys of 3DG are nearly unmatched.
On some of my darkest days 3 days grace with adams voice got me trough them
Genuine GOAT rock singer tier. Love Adam.
3DG is crap without him
If Adam Rejoin i'll back to lisent them . Transit of Venus was a blast at the time i need moreee
By asking Adam to return to 3dg you are disrespecting 11 years of work that 3dg and Saint Asonia have done, if you really support Adam listen to his music in both bands and stop asking for things that won't happen
One of the best rock vocalists of the 2000’s era. And is still a force to be reckoned with today. His and Ben Burnleys music were there for me at a time when nobody else was. I’ll listen till the day I die
The shout out to 311 just made me VERY happy.
Dude, thank you for interviewing Adam. Growing up on 3DG, this really takes me back
i love that it got brought up that "i hate everything about you" was on that nascar game because i literally turned every other song off and had that song playing on repeat on that game haha, good times.
My heart broke when Adam left because he'll always be one of my favorite singers and the band isn't 3DG without him. I'm glad his decision worked well for him but I'm ready for him to come back! I would lose my mind!
El Mejor Cantante Para Mi, Adam El Mejor 👏🏻 🎸
This made my day what a treat
Awesome interview once again! Keep it up brother, I love it!!!!
Great conversation. Thank you both.
Adam gontier getting back with three days grace is a dream come true the band has been my all time favorite Rock band sense I was a kid I know every song happy to see he's doing well staying sober & there might be something in the future for him and three days grace 👑 ❤
Holy cow - I just checked out saint Asonia and of course it’s killer!! Rock on Adam!!
Thank u sooo much for this this guy means soo much too me 😊
This interview flowed very well . Great job!
This was a great interview, the questions were great and love Adam, thank you for this!
Thank you for this interview! It was very meaningful!
Another amazing interview brother…❤❤❤
Thank you!!! Awesome interview! Had met him and the band just a few days before this was shot.
I Absolutely loved this, I never knew the reason why he left, I had an idea. He had a great reason for leaving. It's awesome he has a good relationship with the rest of 3DG. I didn't know he is in a new band, definitely checking his new band out! It's great he is still making music! I hope his relationship with his family is on good terms. It sounds like it may be with at least with his children. I wish him well.
Such a great conversation. Thanks a lot and well done RockFeed. 👏🏻❤️🤘🏻
My inspiration, thank you for that interview! Enjoyed every part of it ❤
Absolutely love Adam!!
I saw Three Days Grace with Chevelle and Breaking Benjamin back in 2019 in Bonner Springs, Kansas, sadly without Adam as frontman but they were still awesome. I also seen his band Saint Asonia back in March of last year and they were absolutely amazing. I'm going to see them again in May along with Staind and Seether(who I have never seen live) Its gonna be a good show.
I’m so glad I found this video so cool!!
What a chill interview!! Solid dudes! Great chat, guys! So stoked to see Adam is crushing it!
This is an awesome interview man. love hearing the back story of stuff like this. one my favorite artist for sure growing up. still jamming the new stuff to Saint Ansonia rocks. I still remember when I heard the first single I was like this is the shit.
Yessss! Adam is one of my favourites
Loved this!!! Great to hear from Adam and his journey. Been a fan since the beginning!! Rock on!! \m/
Awesome interview! You did a superb job. Adam is super talented and it's cool that he's so humble.
Im in loved with this man....such a great artist.
Another gold interview! Well done 👍 🤘
I'm so glad I got to see the 1st reunion live! Huntsville, Alabama went nuts when he came out
Great interview. Adam seems like such a cool guy.
thank you thank you thank you for this interview. Adam is THE musician/artist i respect and take as a mentor. im so happy to be able to witness him doing reunion shows and this interview.
What an icon! Saw 3DG on the One X tour when I was 10 🙌🏻 what an incredible time to be alive! I can’t stomach them with Matt an never will. Adams voice IS 3DG!
Matt is a good singer. I mean, he isn't like Adam, but he's powerful enough to be good. Still is better than Floor.
I saw the one x tour. Terrific!! That album is pure genius!!! Nothing against Matt, It’s just not quite as good and not the same.
Adam is iconic. Can't say the same about the other guy.
cant wait to see this guy next month.
Most I’ve heard him talk on an interview
This is awesome
Absolute Legend!
Childhood favorite band! Along with Breaking Benjamin. Gontiers voice is legendary..
Three days grac and saint asonia are my favorite band ever. I love him and mat equally
god damn, a guest i will watch every minute of. thank you man, hands down best rock news channel, no ones coming closeeeeee lol 💯
this right here is one of my favorite singers and artists :)
Loved the Alice in Chains and Velvet Revolver talk! 2 of my favorite bands aside from what Adam has done of course
He looks so good 🖤
Thank you for this! I've always loved your respect for Adam and Corey from Slipknot. Literally my two favorite vocalist growing up along with Layne from Alice. ❤ thanks man
Saw them on the 6th of December and it was absolutely amazing
I’d love to see a Billy talent and three days grace tour. Two of my favourite bands
the best rock vocalist !!! awesome bro
I can not wait to meet Adam in February - got my meet & greet!
This is a great interview :)
My family is from Peterborough
One of my idols I wanna meet still and see live with three days grace. But really like Saint Asonia as well and seen him with Saint asonia.
Three Days Grace awesome band 🤘🏼.
Yes they are.
Glad to see this interview. Currently watching at Fleming College in Peterborough Ontario. Was fun seeing Adam play with Saint Asonia back in April at The Memorial Center. Followed his career since the early 3DG days. Hope to see him play sometime soon again.
Best Voice next to Chris Cornell❤
Fantastic interview!
Thank you!
I seen them in concert when i seen Skillet. Amazing concert
Adam is the best vocalist/Song writer in rock right now. Love him and @SaintAsonia
I've seen them 4 times during the rock resurrection tour. And seeing them again this spring. Can not wait! ❤🤘🏻
I am so damn in love!! Adam is in the top 3 of my fav vocalists, writers and performers!
Adam Gontier, Jacoby Shaddix, David Draiman, Chester Bennington. 4 male nu metal/alternative metal masters.
Great interview!
(remember seeing Saint Asonia do a surprise debut show at Rock On The Range in Columbus. Always loved 3DG but became a huge SA fan too!)
Last year I actually saw Three Days Grace live twice and saw Saint Asonia live towards the end of the year too. Did VIP for those shows and got to meet TDG and Saint Asonia. It was so awesome to meet Adam. Really cool dude.
