    As a musician myself, I would say he’s one of the best writers/frontmen of my life, and I’m 55 years old.

    I'm here because I saw him open the new guitar on Instagram, I love the sound of his voice. When I was a kid I knew of Linkin and Evanesence because they were really popular, but last year I kind of "discovered" Shinedown, Staind, Breaking Benjamin, Disturbed, and of course TDG and Saint Asonia, and I can't stop listening! Wish he'd do Flawed Design acoustic too.

    Very refreshing to see a compression/distortion styled vocalist not only keep his vocal ability throughout 20 years, but also master his technique to the point where he can sing the chorus on never too late with the compression fucking QUIETLY!!!! I gotta be honest i was expecting him to do thw chorus an octave lower, wouldve been acceptable even for an acoustic cover. But i got chills seeing him do it in his mid voice like that authenticly. He moght be the only one who wpuld understand what i mean by all that but still, fucking inspiring

    It’s just simply bone chilling in the best way... hearing Adam fire off into that higher register in the chorus of Never too Late. As a guitarist/singer myself, I really felt it as he approached that line, then just like an eye blink of hesitation, then seemed to reignite the power right then and belt it out.... just awesome.

    I love these intimate, private seasons. You’re such an incredible talent Adam! Always have been. Thank you for opening up and sharing the struggles you faced. Speaking on such personal, difficult topics isn’t easy even when it’s with a close loved one, let alone the world. But, please know that you’re being heard and your story will help some of your fans that may be feeling the same way you had once felt. In a field of hopelessness, sometimes all we need to pull through is encouragement from someone that’s been through it. ❤. I’ll be at your Feb. 26 concert in Maine. My son got the meet n greet for us. I’ve been a huge fan for 20 years 😳 and my son has loved your music since he was 3. We can’t wait ti finally meet you guys. ❤

    Just saw Saint Asonia live in Salem and was not expecting him to play this song. It got me through some dark times when it first released and I took my 12 year old daughter for her first concert and once he started playing I immediately started crying. Of course she looks embarrassed but I was in pure bliss. ❤

The last month alone, I've been so far down. Seeing this video gave me a slight boost and I hope you know how thankful I am for that, even if it's a slight one.

    Well it's good Adam talked to some people but I also think it depends what people you talk to not everyone is trustworthy or honest or empathetic so a degree of stoicism and self reliance emotionally would help many I think. Meditation maybe or music or creative writing like Adam are things people can do alone. Rock on though Adam you know I know where you are from and that you have been through hell I don't add to your trauma by denying existence like some would. 🤘
