The mix the producers brought adds a little electronic backing to give the little extra boost needed to make the music a little more individual, which fits the theme of being an outsider so much more.

This time they also bring their new singer’s grungy voice coupled with strong, meaningful lyrics to push the group to new heights. They bring the usual powerful guitar, strong rhythm of drums, and driving force of the bass. Though this is a style of music not known for being the most lyrically powerful, Three Days Grace has challenged that notion with Outsider. The song is full of disappointment in what the world has become with the rise of social media and the implications that come with it. It really calls out all the nonsense of the world. “The New Real” shows what has become of society now.

The second song is the album’s first single, “The Mountain.” This song is a great way of encouraging people to keep pushing through because the human spirit can conquer anything. Since America has seen some serious crap from both sides, the song is just saying how neither side is doing the right thing. It can also be read as a disgust at the current political climate. The opening track “Right Left Wrong” seems to be a clever way of saying that sometimes you just have to march away, one step at a time. They have collectively decided that it is okay to want to distance one’s self from the crowd. After having toured and recorded one album with the new lead singer, the group has tightened the screws and come together in a little more cohesive of a group.

The band’s lineup now consists of the aforementioned Matt Walst (lead vocals, rhythm guitar), his brother Brad Walts (bass guitar), Neil Sanderson (drums, backing vocals), and Barry Stock (lead guitar). That means Three Days Grace has had a little time to settle in with their newest lead singer, Matt Walst, who replaced Adam Gontier in 2013. Three years have passed since the release of their last album, Human.

Three Days Grace has released their newest album Outsider with that exact message in mind. Now there is an album for you to help with those times of feeling stuck and annoyed with life. Everyone has times in their life where they just want to escape from everything.
