They're not the most talented band, but I don't see anything about them worthy of all of the hate. If anything, you could call their music boring.

They are really horrible bands more worthy of attracting mass hatred like Papa Roach, Slipknot, Blink 182, Limp Bizkit, Green Day...these bands sound horrible live, act like complete a-holes and are generally annoying to even look at. At least Nickelback sounds decent live and other than looking like Jesus, there's nothing really inciting or controversial about how they look.
I might have to fight you over calling Green Day horrible.

I got your back. Green Day's one of the few (only) great rock bands to emerge in the last couple decades. Lumping them in with those other clowns is not right.

Yep, everyone loves bands who trash music stores and sells their politics.

I admit, I had a few of their early albums, but then I grew up. The whole punk act just got old.

I dont get it either,it seems to come in cycles.This bands cool for a while then they become uncool.Some bands can be cool,then theyre uncool,then theyre cool again.I think KISS went thru that cycle.Creed was cool,then uncool,then kinda became not so uncool anymore.Limp Bizkit was great at first,then it became the in thing to make fun of them and I dont think they ever came out of it.Its all subjective and opinion.Theres some people on here think The Beasties are the greatest thing since sliced bread,to me not so much.Do the Beasties suck?,No and neither does Nickelback

Nickelback is one of the most commercially successful Canadian groups, having sold more than 50 million albums worldwide,[3] ranking as the 11th best selling music act of the 2000s, and is the 2nd best selling foreign act in the U.S. behind The Beatles for the 2000s.[4][5] Billboard ranks them the top Rock group of the decade and their hit song "How You Remind Me" was listed as the top Rock song of the decade as well as the 4th song of the decade. They were listed number 7 on the Billboard top artist of the decade list and they have 4 albums that were listed on the Billboard top albums of the decade.[6

re: Nickelback Fans UNITE!

What was the point of this thread anyway? I get it's the low point of the off-season between minicamp and training camp, but really....what was the point here?
