Three Days Grace Earns RIAA Platinum for "Get Out Alive"

The Canadian rock band Three Days Grace has added another accolade to its extensive collection, as the single "Get Out Alive" was certified Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) on November 18, 2025. The certification signifies 1,000,000 certified units in the United States. Originally released on June 13, 2006, the track is a key component of the band's highly successful sophomore album, One-X, released under RCA Records.

Appearing midway through One-X, "Get Out Alive" contributes to the album's overarching narrative of pain, rage, and eventual hope, which also features hit singles like "Animal I Have Become" and "Never Too Late." The song opens with an ominous guitar part played by Barry Stock, setting a tone that conveys a sense of impending doom and an urgent need for escape. The album itself was a landmark release for the band, solidifying their place in the modern rock landscape of the mid-2000s.

Since establishing themselves in the hard rock vanguard in 2003, Three Days Grace has achieved remarkable and sustained success. Hailing from Norwood, Ontario, the band-which at the time of One-X 's release featured vocalist Adam Gontier, guitarist Barry Stock, bassist Brad Walst, and drummer Neil Sanderson-has broken records and topped charts worldwide. They have secured nineteen #1 records at Mediabase Active Rock and seventeen #1s at Billboard Active Rock. The band remains one of the most listened-to rock acts globally, consistently averaging over 17 million monthly listeners on Spotify and accumulating over 5 billion combined streams across platforms. This Platinum certification for "Get Out Alive" underscores the enduring legacy of their music.
