Toronto-based Three Days Grace are one of the innumerable metal bands that made the charts in the early '00s. While they owe their success (and elements of their sound) to Creed, who seemingly broke the whole metal phenomenon open with a mixture of post-grunge vocals and heavy guitars, Three Days Grace nevertheless manage to cut their own identity from the cloth. Louder and angrier than many of their peers, the band falls somewhere between the mechanical rage of Trapt and the sing-able hipness of Saliva.
