I'Ve been to a System of a Down concert once, and the first part band was so bad that the crowd manage to get them to stop and leave the stage. That was awesome. The band was really angry. But we kept throwing bottles and anything we could find to them and screaming "YOU SUCKS!!!"
Classic.

this thread is hilarious. you know how in grade school you pretend to hate the girl you love, this is like that. Closet fans. who else would spend so much time on this. there are so many bands that suck, why is everyone giving Nickleback so much attention? maybee that's why they are bazillionaires and you're not. kiss sucks worse than nickleback. new thread.
- You sound upset, Nickelback fan.kult
- not at all. i don't hate it but i don't own any. just think it's funny people care this much.madmanGerald
- The fact you bothered to post yourself negatives your point.ETM
- or negates your point.
Damn, I can't spell today (or ever).ETM - no need to make a thread like this, I agree. most people say they hate them anyway...juhls
- ross0
i dont care for their music, but you gotta love how many records they sell, despite being hated by everyone on earth.
- Why? I hate Celine Dion for exactly that reason...TheBlueOne
- Celine Dion can actually sing though. And she doesn't use as many power chords.juhls
- http://www.geektyran…shitehawke
- Does Celine use ANY power cords? lolETM

If you're wondering why and how they're so popular just spend a weekend in Kelowna or Kamloops and it will all become clear.

aren't radio stations in Canada required by law to play a certain percentage of Nickleback?
- No, you're thinking of Bryan Adams.shitehawke
- Only the ones that want to be burned to the ground.ETM
- They are required to play a certain percentage of Canadian music. Usually the worst bands are played.juhls

Ya know, I will never slight anyone and say they "suck". It takes talent and tons of work to have a successful career in music. I will just chalk it off to being "not for my tastes".
With that said, I will give it to these guys for one reason. They know what they are doing and churning out. They have the formula down and let's face it, it's "POP" Rock. "POP" as in Popular, and with that genre comes the ever so played formula. They know it, but at the end of it all they are sleeping in mansions and the rest of us throw stones at their front gates.
I do wonder how it weighs on them personally though. They probably get it from all their musician friends constantly.
- They SUCK!Milan
- hahahamorilla
- i categorize it under 'generic rock'
