Away From The Sun is the second studio album by American rock band 3 Doors Down, originally released in November 2002 via Republic Records.
formed in 1996. The band originally consisted of Brad Arnold (lead vocals/drums), Todd Harrell (bass), and Matt Roberts (lead guitar, backing vocals). They were soon joined by rhythm guitarist Chris Henderson.
The band rose to international fame with their first single, "Kryptonite", which charted in the top three on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart. The band then signed with Republic Records and released their debut album in 2000, The Better Life. They were later joined by drummer Richard Liles, who played during the tour for their first album to allow Brad Arnold to move away from the drum kit and focus on being the band’s front man.
The band's second studio album, Away From The Sun produced two hit singles, "When I'm Gone" and "Here Without You". The recording sessions took place during the summer of 2002 with Producer and Engineer Rick Parashar at London Bridge Studios, in Seattle, Washington. The album has sold eight million copies worldwide, including well over five million in the US alone.
The album smooths out some of the rough edges seen in their debut album The Better Life (2000), making it an accomplished, rocking, and emotional set. Lead single "When I'm Gone" is a muscular blues-rocker and representative of the album's predominantly mid-tempo arrangements that focus on Arnold's contemplative lyrics. There are some nice embellishments thrown in, such as the strings added to the ballad “Here Without You”.
Away From The Sun is a solid sophomore album that shows the band developing it’s own unique style of southern rock.
In a fitting tribute to the band and it’s emerging talent, Rush guitarist Alex Lifeson performed live with the band during their premiere party in Biloxi for Away From The Sun.
The album peaked at #8 on the US Billboard 200 Albums chart and also reached #8 in Australia, #11 in New Zealand and #3 in the UK.
Check out the tracks: “When I’m Gone”; “The Road I’m On”; “Here Without You”; and “Away From The Sun”.
