This weekend there was more than one x in the room as Three Days Grace made their grand return after 3 years  alongside Badflower to show us they’re still a band at the peak of their power!

With support from Badflower, who’s pop punk/hard rock blended set was the perfect primer for a  crowd who’s energy never dipped. No strangers to the scene with a decade under their belt and  hits that had the crowd moving from the get.  

Then came the headliner, which they personified to a tee, opening with fan favourite ‘Animal I  Have Become’, a wailing classic that showed just how important of a venue the O2 Academy  Brixton is when it comes to acoustics.  

They proceed to roll through what is over 20 years of undeniable classics, intertwined with tastes  of their 2025 LP Alienation. Arguably saving the best for last, came the anthems, ‘I Hate  Everything About You’, ‘Riot’, ‘Never Too Late’.  

An undoubtedly brilliant performance from a band that has aced the test of time, at a venue that I  for one, am so glad continues to be a staple of London’s music scene. Closing out their UK/ Europe tour and closing it out in the best way possible.
