Three Days Grace have unveiled their latest single, Mayday.

Kicking off with a bass-driven groove and intense screamo vocals, this melodic rock anthem marks the Canadian band’s first release featuring original frontman Adam Gontier since 2013. Produced by Zakk Cervini, Dan Lancaster, and Howard Benson, the track arrives alongside a striking video directed by CiRCUS HEaD.

Chatting on the new song the band shared: “Mayday reflects the chaotic state of the world—a mix of disillusionment, exhaustion, and denial. It captures the feeling of teetering on the edge—emotionally, socially, and environmentally—yet refusing to give up. Even as we feel like we’re barely hanging on, we keep moving forward, one step at a time.”

Looking ahead, Gontier will join forces with current vocalist Matt Walst, who has fronted the band for the past decade, as they share vocal duties.

Three Days Grace are set to support Disturbed on The Sickness 25th Anniversary Tour across North America next year. They’ll also hit major festivals, including Sick New World, Sonic Temple, Welcome to Rockville, and Inkarceration.
