Canadian rockers THREE DAYS GRACE will release their seventh studio album, “Explosions”, on May 6 via RCA Records. The official Jon Vulpine-directed music video for the LP’s first single, “So Called Life”, can be seen below. The song is the first new original music from THREE DAYS GRACE since the Juno Award-nominated “Outsider” album came out in 2018.

THREE DAYS GRACE singer Matt Walst states: “In these crazy and divided times, everyone needs something to take the edge off.”
Vulpine adds: “I wanted to make this video really raw and stripped down. Something high energy with extreme angles and fast movements. A bunch of old analog gear in this ’70s apartment that looked like some hoarder died in it 20 years ago and the guys just came in and recorded. I didn’t want to go for a clean and super polished look, so Justin Jones, my DP, suggested these rehoused 1960s Japanese lenses for a grittier more contrasty feel. That, along with different lens distortions and attachments, just added to the diversity of shots.”
Earlier in the month, THREE DAYS GRACE confirmed tour dates throughout April and May of 2022 in cities including Charleston, Cincinnati, and Madison. Black Veil Brides, Motionless in White, Ice Nine Kills, and Lilith Czar will support THREE DAYS GRACE on select dates, and the band will support Godsmack in Tampa, Orlando, Newark, Worcester, Milwaukee, and Minneapolis. Tickets for all shows are on sale now here.
THREE DAYS GRACE‘s most recent release was a cover of Gotye‘s “Somebody That I Used To Know”, which came out in July 2020. The official music video for THREE DAYS GRACE‘s version of the track was directed by Mike Filsinger.
