Seventeen Days is the third studio album by American rock band 3 Doors Down. It was released on February 8, 2005, five years after the release of their debut album, The Better Life. It is the band's first album to debut atop the Billboard 200, and received both gold and platinum certifications by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) on March 14, 2005.[9] Its lead single, "Let Me Go", became the album's only song to enter the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at number 14.
It is the band's first album with a guest appearance; Bob Seger sings a duet with lead vocalist Brad Arnold on the single "Landing in London". Seventeen Days is the only 3 Doors Down studio album with Daniel Adair on drums, who left the group to join the Canadian rock band Nickelback in 2005. Puddle of Mudd drummer Greg Upchurch joined 3 Doors Down in 2005 after Adair's departure.
Recording
The album was delayed shortly in 2004 because of the band touring for their 2002 album Away from the Sun.[citation needed] Many people believe the album was written by the band in seventeen days,[according to whom?] hence the name of the album, but this is not true. The name was created because the band only had 17 days off from the end of their Away from the Sun tour and being back in the studio to work on their new album.[10]
