Formed in Escatawpa, Mississippi, the resilient fivesome has blazed a trail as
the quintessential rock band, attaining massive mainstream success but
somehow never losing that small town identity that has branded them
rock’s truest underdogs.  They’ve reigned as a genuine force of nature,
boasting rock n’ roll’s most earnest work ethic – ‘The thoroughly
modern American band’ - crows Billboard, one part swagger/one part
tireless road warriors, brandishing an arsenal of battle-tested radio
gems like their breakthrough anthem,  “Kryptonite.”  Unleashed at the
beginning of the decade, the song seemed to capture the band’s heroic
climb and steadfast refusal to be pigeonholed as just another rock
band. 

Now, on the cusp of releasing their first
self-titled album (their fourth studio album and what some have
appraised as ‘their most definitive,’) the group weighs in on what it
took to refresh their innate sense of ‘place’ and deliver what just
might be their masterwork - a blistering, both-barrels approach etched
in the grain of brand new hits like the wistful wakeup call of “It’s
Not My Time,” the contemplative “Pages,” and the stem-winding lure of
“Train,” among others.  

3 Doors Down’s decade-plus ascension
(the original group formed in ’95) you realize they’ve earned a
wall-full of accolades that are also firmly cemented into rock’s record
books: 13 million albums sold, 3 multi-platinum albums (their first
album, 2000’s The Better Life sold an astounding 6 million copies, with
their 2002 follow-up, Away From The Sun selling 4 million) six #1 hits,
multiple Billboard and other awards, and a relentless road itinerary
that saw them hit 32 countries in a six year roll-up with ‘nary a break
in between.  You don’t rack up that kind of ‘hall-of-fame’ mileage
without putting a fair share of dents in the armor.
