Sounds Like: 12 Stones & Three Days Grace fell into a 2 liter bottle of POP, where they met up with long time friends Patrick Stump (Fall Out Boy), Stephen Christian (Anberlin), and Martin Johnson (Boys Like Girls). Then, from out of no where, Dallas Smith (Default) jacks Adam Gontier (TDG) right in the face, killing him. The 4 singers then decide to mesh into one and join the Three Days Grace & 12 Stones crews.
