Flawed Design by Saint Asonia

Flawed Design, the second album from Canadian-American supergroup Saint Asonia, came out on Spinefarm Records on October 25, 2019, with Brian Sperber producing. The band had been built around Adam Gontier, after his exit from Three Days Grace, and Staind's Mike Mushok, and by now the rest of the lineup had turned over: Gontier's cousin Cale Gontier had taken the bass from Corey Lowery, who left to join Seether, and Mushok's Staind bandmate Sal Giancarelli had replaced original drummer Rich Beddoe.

The sound is what those résumés promise: brooding alternative metal, heavy riffs set against wounded, arena-sized choruses, with Gontier's voice doing the heavy lifting. "The Hunted", "Blind" and "Ghost" went out as singles.
