Throughout their nine-year career, Nickelback have stayed true to their roots, releasing five CDs of straight-up, unapologetic rock & roll. So how have things changed for the Canadian boys since the massive success of Silver Side Up and The Long Road? Well, brothers Chad and Mike Kroeger still live in the Great White North, and they still write hook-laden rock songs. The only difference now is that they have the satisfaction, 10 million CDs later, of smugly knowing that even some of their biggest naysayers will guiltily admit to singing along with Nickelback s catchy hits. On All the Right Reasons, one track definitely ranks high up in hum-ability: the first single, Photograph, reminisces about the bittersweetness of high school in a small town--once again reconfirming frontman Chad Kroeger s ability to write memorable hooks. Regarding the rest of the disc: standard rock topics like love, lust, jealousy, and breakups abound, with riff-y delivery that longtime fans will love. The guilty pleasure bunch will also find what they need within the grooves, on the ballad If Everyone Cared, the riff-heavy Fight for All the Wrong Reasons, and the Metallica-inspired Savin Me. The disc s most impressive and simultaneously surreal moment, however, exists on Side of a Bullet, a passionate revenge tale written about the killer of Pantera guitarist Dimebag Darrell Abbott, which features one of the late Abbott s guitar solos as donated by Pantera bandmate and brother, drummer Vinnie Paul. --Denise Sheppard
Great price for a combo!! - I got this cd in a combo pack with Nickelback s new cd Dark Horse. Fast shipping and great price!
Generic as it gets! - This is as generic and bland as rock music can get. This CD is immensely boring. This album basically embodies all the stereotypical radio rock elements you can image.If you want the monotonous truck-commercial sounding riffs and awful wannabe-Pearl Jam sounding vocals, you have it all in this album.There s honestly A LOT a band can do with 2 guitars, bass and drums. What drives a band to produce a CD of music which seriously sounds like it was made specifically for the radio? Probably money. Don t buy this album if you re a music fan. Leave this one for the casual radio listeners.
Real rock n roll! - This album earns 5 stars from me! I love Chad s voice. The way he croons hey, hey, I wanna be a rockstar! just blows anything sung by Roger Daltrey or that Plant guy out of the water! The way he sings the deep lyrics look at this photograph, every time it makes me laugh just tears out my heart. He sings with such honesty and integrity with a gritty edge to them that assures me that Mr.Kroger is one of the finest vocalist of all-time. The virtuoso guitar playing, maniac drumming and intense bass makes this album a true winner.
This Cd is AWESOME! - This is possibly nickelback s best cd. every song is awesome. i especially love the base on animals. all in all: this cd ROCKS!
Never Again!!!! - The CD is great, but I will never shop at Amazon again. It took over 3 weeks to get 3 cds from California, I live in Reno, NV. Not acceptable!!!They had them in stock.....
