Three Days Grace recently welcomed back the band's original singer, Adam Gontier, and now, the guys are sharing their first new music since the reunion with their anthemic single "Mayday."
Produced by Zakk Cervini and Dan Lancaster, with vocal production by Howard Benson, Gontier and Matt Walst sing lyrics, "We’ll never say, we’ll never say, Mayday/ Welcome to the end just take a number/ Just get used to the influence you’re under."
In a statement, the band said of their new track, "This song is a reflection of the current state of the world, an unsettling mix of disillusionment, exhaustion, and denial. The sense that we’re all on the brink—emotionally, socially, and environmentally, yet we refuse to admit defeat. So even though we feel like we are barely surviving we keep on moving forward, one foot in front of the other."
Along with the release of "Mayday" comes its official music video, in which fans see the band flying a plane as chaos erupts after they fly through a lightening storm, causing heavy turbulence and panic. The visual goes along perfectly with the song's lyrics, "We ride like passengers without a pilot/ We be losing our minds, but we all try to hide it/ It’s hard to keep fighting when you’re barely surviving."
