Wanted to ask just the same question, for exactly the same reason. They may not be great, but why all that hate? Is it some U. S. vs Canada thing, maybe? (Sorry for the naïve question, but I’m from the other side of the Pond.)
Not US vs. Canada. Equal hate on both sides of the border. There’s actually been petitions in both Canada and US attempting to stop them from playing at a couple sporting events. I think they suck (it all sounds the same) but I don’t get all the hate either. Just listen or don’t listen ya know?
I think some of the main complaints I’ve heard about Nickelback is that too many of their songs sound exactly the same. I liked them in their earlier days but these days it sounds all the same to me as well. For a while there was video going around comparing the music of two their songs and it was just as they said.
But, also KISS and Nickelback are two WAY different bands. To but them together as Rock and Roll just doesn’t seem right. For one KISS is heavy metal and Nickelback I can only see as alternative rock. KISS has also be around much longer than Nickelback and they should be in Rock and Roll Hall of Fame but they aren’t. :/ I don’t think a lot of older KISS fans would be happy about this comparison either which is how I saw this post actually.
I think they’re just the latest target for a bored Internet. People will ostracize anything to distract from the hectic or dull nature of their own daily lives. Eventually it’ll fade away like parachute pants. I mean, when was the last time you saw a Jonas Brothers bit make the main page?
Do I like the band? Yes. Do I own an album or two? Yeah. Do I think every song they have is gold? No. They’ve made a couple I didn’t particularly care for. They have, however, made some really good ones.
Would I classify them as “rock ‘n’ roll”? No. Rock, yes. But rock ‘n’ roll is a bit different, though I can’t explain it. I don’t think anyone really does genuine rock ‘n’ roll anymore (at least, not artist/band that has formed in the last 10 years…).
Mr. Morbach you have no taste in music or probably in anything else. Their music is not classified as rock actually it is classified under garbage. Other notable artists in their genre are Kevin Federline and many many country music artists ha ha ha.
I dislike Nickelback, but to be fair, I hate most things played on the radio today.
That being said, I agree with there being better things to hate. Right now I can name at least five or six artists who deserve the same ridicule, but for whatever reason are immuned to it.
Pretty nice portraits but why did they let a retard spray the text?
did they died?
proof that crummy music can span generations.
the fail is that it’s an old crappy car, isn’t it?
Its that someone thinks Nickleback qualifies as rock n roll…or likes them at all
This is how they remind me of how they really are rubbish.
exactly, how is nickleback in the same category as kiss? lol i can’t tell if trolling or just plain stupid.
I do like Nicklebacks spiderman song though
I agree ^
YOur gay!!!!
Don’t listen to him, Bill Gates. We’ll run off together, and go to a place where they’ll understand and accept us…
This paint suggests that KISS without the makeup is really Nickelback.
I don’t really understand the Nickelback hate. They’re not great but there are better things to hate, like Nicki Minaj.
agree.

That I can respect. If you don’t want to listen to them, don’t. If someone does like them, then that is fine too.
If anyone likes nickleback’s music they are obviously either def of retarded because nickleback is garbage. They are the epitome of terrible.

I agree 100%. I personally think they are good. Not my favorite band but they are pretty good. I don’t know why everybody hates them so much.

Chad Kroger sounds like he’s gargling cigarettes
Yes, but is that good or bad?
From bad to worse.
Fitting it’s on an old ass Chevy Cavalier. Looks like it’s early 90′s. The place wear Nickleback is forever stuck.
KISS rocks, Nickelback sucks.
You’re exactly right.
I don’t get the Nickleback hate. I think they’re pretty good. Are we just out of Justin Bieber jokes?
^This, everybody just follows the bandwagon.
Nuke that car from orbit.
It is very nicely done atleast
Good post, Love it. Keep it up. I appreciate it.
Repetitive post. Hate it. Name links to spam. I don’t appreciate it.
Now this is a fail. Good job, FAILBlog! Nickelback just needs to die.
Nickelback is just an awful band.
even if you dislike nickelback, you have to admit he did a pretty good job airbrushing.. check out his other work and see his real talent..
I wish I hadn’t kept scrolling down… T_T
Somebody tell me where this car is so I can total it.
I wonder if Nickleback listens to their own music or if they prefer something else like the rest of us…?
