I know most of their songs sound similar, but they aren't awful. I actually like a few of their songs. I think people just hate them because it's the cool thing to do.

My guess is most of the people who hate Nickelback think Foreigner is great classic rock.

I go to parties and everybody's listening to Nickelback. Nobody listens to Oasis.

I was at Best Buy a while back in the music section and there were like 6 different Nickelback albums on the shelf. Like three regular albums, a couple of b-side albums and one with a single and more b-sides. I was like, who the frick is gonna buy all this shite?

"I like almost all of their stuff. They are a very popular band. If so many people like them, then how can they be considered awful?"


Almost verbatim from a friend of mine about Nickelback.

I hate them because they are the Walmart of music. A commercially driven band with absolutely no creativity. Everything sounds the same.

Not to mention Kroger is the biggest chochbag of all time.

Their music doesn't have any balls, it's "rock" music for pussies.

I don't get it because there is so much worse out there. Basically, everything played on Hits 1.

I know people that listen to them and that's fine with me. At the same time these people also find bands like 3 Doors Down pleasing, which have about the same amount of talent or lack-of. IMO I dislike them due to the fact that they are everything that is wrong with music. An overproduced, bland and fairly untalented cheese-rock band.
