I had heard their song "Rockstar" on MTV and decided to check them out. I come from an age before mp3's and ipods so my choice was to get a cd & to my surprise the songs did not fail to impress me. They seem to have a combination of some bands from past years. They have the musical drive of Metallica combined with the similiar vocals of Kurt Cobain (RIP). This may seem strange to some of you, but try to imagine my point of view. I grew up on a wide (and i do mean wide) range of music. Growing up i heard everything from Jackie Gleason (yes, he was a singer as well as an actor) to Led Zeppelin. I also listened to the songs of Charlie Daniels along with the supergroup The Highwaymen (try looking them up). As for why I bought this cd, it was the right price and it had a few of the songs i was looking for. Would recommend to anyone who is wavering on wether or not to purchase the album (yes, i said album. shows you how old I am.)Read full review
"How You Remind Me" and "Never Again" are a couple of the hits from this amazing CD. This is the album which actually introduced the world to Nickelback. However, if you are just a casual radio listener and only know those two songs, there is much more in store for you with the purchase of this CD. I think it is a very good album and has a great balance of hard rock songs and softer, slower ballads. Chad Kroeger is developing his voice on his album and it is reflected in the excellent melding of his deep voice and the guitar strumming. The quality of the songwriting (lyrically) is much, much better than the writing on "Curb" and Nickelback distinguishes themselves as a unique entity.
An exceptional CD with thought-provoking lyrics set to spectacular music. A MUST HAVE! (I'm into the older music of my generation, from the 60s and 70s, but upon hearing my sons playing their copy of this CD, I just had to have it. Give it a try!)
CD was in great condition! Does not skip. no sound defects.
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned
Its nickelback so theres not alot to say. its good and as time goes they only get better. good listening without having to skip around through the songs. just put it on and let the whole thing play. nothing boring here.
