Hey everybody. Today's guest is Neil Sanderson, songwriter, drummer, and backing vocalist for the Toronto Canada rock, Three Days Grace.

Together, we break down the writing, recording,

and inspiration behind the breakout smash hit single.

I hate everything about you,

taken from their 2003 self-titled debut album.

Neil mentioned that the song was written around 4 a.m. and the band's old rehearsal space

after a long night of practicing and drinking. It was one of those magic moments where everyone in the room

instantly knew that they were on to something. In fact, it was the demo of the song that attracted

fierce interest from several major record labels. song that strong as they could be. I told Neil that his drumming is very inventive and gives the song

a swing that without just wouldn't be the same. It was really cool that Neil played a bit of guitar

and piano as we comb through the song, showing that he is

way more than just the drummer of the band.

And this was the first episode of Krista Makes a Podcast, where someone mentioned using
