Saint Asonia was born in Toronto out of an exit: Adam Gontier had walked away from Three Days Grace in 2013, and he found a sparring partner in Staind guitarist Mike Mushok. With Corey Lowery on bass and backing vocals and Rich Beddoe on drums, they made a Canadian-American supergroup built for rock radio, all heavy-gauge riffs and Gontier's aching, gravel-edged hooks, squarely in the alternative metal and post-grunge lane.
The self-titled debut came out on RCA in 2015, with "Better Place" leading the charge. Then the lineup started to shift: Mushok's old Staind bandmate Sal Giancarelli took over the drums, Lowery left for Seether in 2018, and Gontier's cousin Cale Gontier picked up the bass. Flawed Design followed on October 25, 2019, with "The Hunted" as its calling card, and Cody Watkins of Art of Dying moved onto the drum stool early in 2020.
The whole thing went on ice in October 2024, when Gontier went back to Three Days Grace.
