At my place of employment when these guys (along with Slaughter  ) were big, we each used to bring in a CD on the shift and play it.
I learned to become very familiar with Garth Brooks, Trixter, Slaughter, and Ace of Bass. 
Of course, I subjected them to skinny puppy, Nine Inch Nails, Ministry, and Prince Ace of Bass? 
I have to admit that I loved Trixter and Slaughter. I still have some cassette singles of theirs! I was a hair metal freak.  That picture is so epic... oh! Nickleback... yeah... | |

Yes, they are. I'm sure they'd be the worst at everything they tried. Oh man, how much I absolutely despise them. | |

The irony of all this, is that while we complain about how bad their music is, they're happily chillin' in their mansions, rolling in dollars. | |

I went to this really tasteless night club last night, and I think I heard a Nickelback dance remix being played there!  | |

[Edited 9/6/08 2:44am] No way! Those fuckwits need to burn at the stake! Fine then, miss out. I'm just saying, if all you know of a band is one or two goofy-ass singles and never give the full scope of their work a listen, how can you judge? It'd be like judging all Prince music based on Jughead or Wedding Feast. 
I'm not a huge fan of most of their goofier music, (except Yoko Ono and New Kid on the Block.  ) but their serious songs are so damned good, especially their older stuff. Steven Page has a gorgeous voice. I think it's why he's never lead vocals on the silly songs. Why bother?  [Edited 9/6/08 10:19am] "A Watcher scoffs at gravity!" | |

[Edited 9/6/08 10:19am] I've heard more of their singles than that- I just picked the three worst offenders. And I hate them so much that I'm happy to miss out on whatever you claim may be good songs. I bet I'd hate them anyway, because I don't like their sound or their vocals.

of course, they are a pile of wank, worse than an american idol reject.
fucking irritating and shite mainstream crap that really pisses me off. the lead singer's voice is like when someone has a dirty shit after eating 10 taco bells in a row. kroger or freddy kruegers son or whatever the fuck he is called is a disgrace to music. even the creed lead singer who had the jaw lock thing with his mouth is more listenable than this shit called nickelcrap. | |

In Freddie Kroger's defense, the guy has some very tight harmonies worked out in all the songs. That takes some skill.
That's the only nice thing I'll ever say about Nickelback | |

Not the worst but certainly very, very far away from what Rock music is/ should be about.
I also find it incredibly distasteful that they sing this oh-so ironic song slagging off the whole rock star cliche when Chad Kroeger was done for DUI in his Ferrarri. Yeah, Chad, REALLY down-to-earth keeping it real, son! Wanker. This is not an exit | |
