Three Days Grace on Explosions, Algorith...

Consequence Podcast Network
About this episode

Three Days Grace bassist Brad Walst joins Kyle Meredith to dig into the Canadian band’s seventh studio album, Explosions, which found them writing separately for the first time during lockdown.

Walst also discusses the anger heard within the songs and finding ways to continue to tap into that emotion, the big searching questions that populate the lyrics, and the background on “I Am the Weapon." He then goes on to share the story of making the video for “Lifetime,” which shines a light on Mayfield, Kentucky (with proceeds going to folks impacted by the December 2021 tornadoes), and having the new LP speak to their past on their 25th anniversary year.

Listen to Walst's chat with Meredith now or watch video of the interview via Consequence. After that, don't forget to like and subscribe to Kyle Meredith With… wherever you get your podcasts, and you can also follow the Consequence Podcast Network for updates on all our shows.
