    This album was so amazing! This is going to be album of the year without a doubt, there is no one even going to come close to making an album as good as this! Sufjan Stevens? Pssh, let's hear it for Nickelback!

    Notice that everyone who has reviewed this album with a glowing response barely has the intellectual capacity to even remotely command the English language in a correct manner. If you examine that the intellect of the crowd that lauds Nickelback is remarkably apparent. Just like the contrived idiocy of this album.

    Honestly, people, are you really that retarded? To give this a 0 means that it has no musical merit whatsoever, which is certainly not the case; even a music teacher, band director, or classical musical composer could tell you that. Just because it doesn't vary with time signatures like Tool or Meshuggah doesn't give you a right to bash it. You are Nickelback haters through and Honestly, people, are you really that retarded?

With that said, this is the best Nickelback album to date. Highlights include Follow You Home, Photograph, Animals, Far Away, If Everyone Cared, Rockstar. Expand

    Are these people serious about the album of the year comments? This must be the only album they've listened to this year. Someone please stop Nickelback from making another record before it's too late!

    These guys just care a little about the music and a whole lot about one other thing...$$$ and you can really hear it on the CD and in interviews. They measure sucess almost totally by album sales. I don't expect music to save the world or to hear some mind altering new sound, but this stuff is shallow and uncreative for the most part...and why are they so critical about being These guys just care a little about the music and a whole lot about one other thing...$$$ and you can really hear it on the CD and in interviews.

I think these guys way down deep even know themselves that they lowered the bar on themselves just so they could be "rock stars". Come on Nickelback! I know your not that stupid... Expand

    Never been much of a fan of this band - I hate screamers - but after watching Much Music's Nickelback: Coast to Coast, I thought I would give them a listen - and I've found the CD quite enjoyable. Critics criticize while the rest of us enjoy.

    I feel the need to come out in support of this album...i think peopel are looking for the answer to the worlds problems on CD, when really music should be about havin' a darn good time. This album has maximum attitude and will get under your skin within one listen.

    Nickelback has taught me a huge amount music & fashion. I take a lot of inspiration from somebody who can have that kind of effect onf the music I play and the clothes I wear. For me, Nickelback is my hero... a true genius

    Eh, I mean if you except them for what they are, this is not bad. I mean it is the same song/formula but at least it still rocks. Was anyone really expecting "Dark Side of The Moon"?

    I'm not proud to be Canadian anymore... Worst album ever by one of the worst band in the history of our Country. I can't believe they actually sell cd's...

  1. Despite all their newly developed relative nuances, Nickelback remain unchanged: they're still unspeakably awful.

    Less polish and more attitude are welcome changes that fire up the rock numbers and give them more snap. [8 Oct 2005]
  3. Entertainment Weekly
    75
    They're exploring a richer, more diverse sound. [28 Oct 2005, p.84]
