With the label showing remarkable interest and eager to hear more material from the guys, in the process they created the track “(I Hate) Everything About You”. It was Brown who helped them to create the demos which would catch the attention of EMI Publishing Canada. With the relocation, the trio soon became acquainted with local producer Gavin Brown. At the time the line-up consisted of Adam Gontier (vocals, guitar), Neil Sanderson (drums) and Brad Walst (bass).
