I only liked a couple of their songs. Compared to a lot of other stuff I have they're very simplistic and mediocre.
This really doesn't surprise me though.

Apparently the formula they use to write songs is a winner. You can't fault their logic there.

It's quite a simple thing with Nickelback. If you've heard one song, you've heard them all.

I wouldn't be surprised if someone else was writing their music.

When your bank account is bulging like theirs you'll have earned the right to criticise their methods. Until then STFU.
Nickelback are a great band, but their best songs aren't those ones, they are:
Figured You Out
Flat on the Floor
Never Again.

We have every right to criticize all we want.

Mobius is right about one thing, though; Never Again was a damn good song. However, after listening to the rest of the CD it was on, I can honestly say more than half of the tracks sounded exactly alike.
P.S. Mobius, you're still wrong about the money crack. All that proves is that there are a lot of mindless people out there willing to pay money for mediocre music.

I just now noticed it, when I heard that All Things Considered report. That's why I posted it, just now.

Nickelbag and "great band" are words that should never be associated with each other. Nickelback is GARBAGE and represents the uncreative mass-produced no feeling shiz that modern music has become.

Actually it sounds like they sped up Someday a little to make it match.

Sped up Someday and removed couplets from its refrain, but the point of the demo is to prove that the structures are the same.

i thought a lot of people here liked this music?
i can distinctly remember reading here months back in a musicmusicyay thread, "band X is really great" "x2" "x3" "x4" "french suck" "x5". prettysure BANDX was nickleback, or some band JUST like em (i don't like em).
i held my tounge though, everyone to their own i recon.

Heh, too bad you don't follow your own advice when it comes to your postings
