    100% agree , i never understood the hate for Nickelback!
    I think it kinda became "cool" to hate on them at some point, i just never jumped on that bandwagon

    • @fantomagnik
      @fantomagnik 6 років тому +39

      Exactly... It's the sheep and meme mentality these days that causes this behaviour. Uncool kids desperately trying to fit in. Some may genuinely not like this bad that's given but most of the hate they get is mainly from bandwagoners

      @helmedon 6 років тому +6

      Because they're Canadian is what I hear a lot. But many, many great bands hail from our northern neighbors, so that doesn't fly. I think it's just a "thing".....like a guilty pleasure nobody wants to admit to for some reason. The "commercial" aspect could be more to the point.

    • @walker2980
      @walker2980 6 років тому

      I'm not so much into them now but personally I think their first two albums were the best Curb & The State. With The State being the better of the 2. Once their third album Silverside Side Up came out it and everything that followed just sounded the same even the lyrics.
      And really the majority of their fan base hadn't even heard of them until their third album came out and started getting radio play then they blew up.

    The reason people hate on them is because back in the day, I forget who it was, but another band said they suck and Chad Kroeger came out swinging defending his band. Ever since then it's been the "cool" thing to say, that they suck. The fact is, they absolutely sell out every single arena they play in and their albums all go platinum. People are closet Nickelback fans. I've seen them 4 times and they are really awesome live, it's hit after hit after hit.

    • @jonathanwalkoviak701
      @jonathanwalkoviak701 5 років тому +7

      Chad went after slipknot saying they sucked because they had 9 people in the band to make them sound good(something along those lines). Corey then came out swinging on chad and not the band as a whole.

    • @andreslabbert22
      @andreslabbert22 5 років тому +5

      Jonathan Walkoviak Yeah I said Corey. They were signed for the same label and they got beef with each other. Not the bands as a whole. But imo your band would still back you up if things got pretty serious. Two different personalities so I dunno why one would criticize the other.

  • @ryanlarson2692
    @ryanlarson2692 2 роки тому +25

    Music snobs and cool kids hated Journey, Bon Jovi, Def Leppard and the Eagles back then, but all those bands are beloved now, with plenty of classic songs. Nickelback could be on their way to that status. Truth be told, rock needs bands like them to give the genre relevance.

    • @dawsondudark
      @dawsondudark Рік тому +1

      Hating the Eagles is not even an opinion. It’s just incorrect. It is FACT that the Eagles are great. Like the sun is in outer space.

    • @Blarsen780
      @Blarsen780 5 місяців тому

      ​@dawsondudark Idk, man. I can't stand The Eagles. Hotel California rules, and Take it Easy is good, but they've both run out of replay value for me. Every other song I've heard from them does absolutely nothing for me. I don't understand the hype at all.

    I'm a metalhead, and I actually like Nickelback. Yes, I catch hell for it, but I'm also a drummer who loves Karen Carpenters playing. Great groove and feel, and she could swing! Mr. Buddy Rich once said that Karen was his favorite drummer! That's good enough for me...

      They are more of a live critique and discussion rather than just a reaction channel, which is why they are so much more interesting than a standard reaction channel. It's the same reason people don't mind watching a Fine Brothers reaction video compared to a Jynx Reaction video.

      Also, they weren't created by a label. Other than the drummer, the band has been together since the early 90s. Chad borrowed money from his stepfather to make their first demo. In other words these guys worked their way to success and made it the same way as any other band.

  • @Jori139
    @Jori139 6 років тому +141

    You guys are exactly right, his voice sounds good and the instrumentals, but each nickelback song sounds good in the exact same way. If you listen to a whole album it's almost like throwing a song on loop for 30 minutes. This is also coming from a nickelback fan, I listened to these guys all the time.

    • @LostInVegas
      @LostInVegas  6 років тому +41

    • @PastHisPrime336
      @PastHisPrime336 6 років тому +11

      I agree, I like Nickelback music. His voice is great and the songs are good. I think most of the hate comes from, like you say, many of their songs sound identical. Their formula works.

    • @IngoGarza
      @IngoGarza 6 років тому +9

      Yeah but there are A LOT of bands that does the same thing and Nickleback isnt the first one. My dad is a huge AC/DC fan and we where talking about how basically every track from them is the same. But he thinks its SO GOOD it doesn't matter.
      Some people want variation in music but some people are out there searching for a peculiar sound that they just wanna click with.

    • @mariog2609
      @mariog2609 6 років тому +3

      and that's exactly it.....I used to love listening to Nickelback and sing along to the lyrics....but yes....at some time..I realized..."wait a moment...which song we are now listening to...?" can't diffentiate....It s not about his voice, the lyrics, even the style of the pop rock music ( I also listen to Suicidal Tend/Slayer/Machne Head and Bruce Springsteen...etc) it's not about if you like or dislike his look of he married Avril ;-)....It's about listening to same stuff all the time..and each of them turns platin....

    • @polerin

    • @LostInVegas
      @LostInVegas  6 років тому +125

      JUST responded to a comment below with a similar response. I see a lot of slick dissing but no REAL explanations. Also, the well thought out explanations STILL come off as hating. ''Oh well they are pop'' ''Oh well their sound is the same as every other band at the time'' etc. Keep in mind, that THROUGHOUT THE HISTORY OF MUSIC, there has always been a 'popular' sound that influenced a generation of musicians (this goes for every genre). Them following a 'formula' doesn't take away from the skill and talent it takes for them to make great music. They may not be ''innovators'' or ''visionaries'' but they make good music. PERIOD.

      I like their older music but their newer stuff is trash, it's like they forgot who they were. Then Chad goes out and bashes a rock/metal legend in Corey Taylor from Slipknot, and Stone Sour saying that the only reason Slipknot is popular is a gimmick and that Nickelback is one of the most diverse bands in history is just ridiculous. Nickelback's new music seems like it was made in a studio that has a "Blueprint" to a hit when in reality it's just the same thing every other artist is doing better than they can. But their old shit is great.

    • @toddedwards5144

    Avenged sevenfold - almost easy
    Disturbed - down with the sickness
    The black crowes - twice as hard
    Foo fighters - the pretender
    Or maybe some stuff you've never heard of
    Gemini syndrome - stardust, pleasure and pain,
    Hail the villain - take back the fear, blackout, swan dive scuicide (watch the music videos with these)
    In this moment - big bad wolf, adrenaline, whore, blood (this is a female metal singer)
    Mushroom head - sun doesn't rise (if you don't like heavy music this won't be a good one. But this is my favorite workout music. But for being 54 this dude has some vocals. The guy screaming is a different person)
    Nothing more - this is the time
    Rage against the machine - killing in the name
    Rise against - savior

  • @zacharydavis8665
    @zacharydavis8665 6 років тому +36

    Coming from a guy who had their album. Their hits were good in my opinion. Where Nickleback gets legitimate hate, is that too many of their songs end up sounding the same and the instrumentals tended to be rudimentary compared to what some other musicians can do. That is the criticism. But! I liked this one and I rocked the album once and a while. Now that I'm older, I'd like to go back and listen to their album again to see what I think now, but back then I thought it was a good cruising album. They are good at making radio songs.

    • @zacharydavis8665
      @zacharydavis8665 6 років тому +2

    • @robhalfmann4701
      @robhalfmann4701 6 років тому

      Lost In Vegas they are very talented and even better in concert. The hate comes from being over played on the radio and the bandwagon fans they brought in. Some people say all their songs sound the same and very generic. Those same people love ac/dc yet all their songs sound the same and basic 3 chord riffs. Both excellent bands.

    The whole nickelback sucks meme/joke comes from the fact the epitomize the "generic industry rock" that dominated rock radio play from the late 90s into the mid 00s. The hate isnt exactly a critique on nickleback, but more of a meta commentary and backlash to the overproduced "industry rock" genre as a whole. Tbh its kind of unfair to nickleback that they are the scapegoat to all the backlash, but so is life hope this helps.. Anyway Love your channel guys keep it up! Would love to see yall maybe check out some led zeppelin like stairway to heaven or dazed and confused or some brand new like guernica or jesus christ. Peace love and success!

    • @LostInVegas
      @LostInVegas  6 років тому +49

      The hate is just ridiculous. Music has ALWAYS had trending sounds. Which is why you can listen to a song from the 80's without knowing the band and pinpoint that it was made in the 80's. The same thing applies to every decade. Nickelback is not an ''innovative'' group and they were not ''visionaries'' as it relates to Rock. HOWEVER, they make good music as 'formulaic' as it sounds. They deserve respect for that. Great comment. Thank you for your insight on this.

      @camshaft161858 6 років тому +11

      Nickleback's music is almost too formulaic. From the big choruses and to the sing song "yeah yeahs". Especially since this came out after the grunge era which was against formulas and against the system. Grunge became so popular not by being formulaic but by being something different and exciting. Nickleback became the poster boy of the new alternative scene that wanted to be grunge bands but didn't have the heart behind it. They weren't heavy enough to be nu metal but not sincere and their own thing like grunge. You can listen to a nirvana song and write down little tips on how they made their songs, puddle of mudd, staind, and nickleback used these tips to basically create their whole sound. Kurt Cobain always said "Nirvana is a mix between The Beatles and Black Sabbath." Could Nickleback even think of something like that? Nu metal was big in a different way but nickleback got on commercials and heavy rotation on radio, so the fact that they were heavily exposed to everyone didn't help their street cred either. I'm sure every influence Nickleback has, writes better songs and is more believable. "we need a pre-chorus here and yeah yeahs here and oh let's write a song about this and this" doesn't belong in rock. Rock is against the system just like hip hop is. It isn't meant to be safe and formulaic. it's meant to push boundaries and say fuck you to the man. Rock and Hip Hop in particular were made for the outcasts, for the pissed off people in this world. When that heart and energy is stripped away it feels fake and forced and formulaic. THAT is my problem with Nickleback and the bands like them.

    Can't speak for Americans but in Canada a lot of people can't stand Nickelback because radio stations (who are required by law to play a specific percentage of Canadian music) jammed them down our throats for years.

It's great to see that I am not the only person who listens to 50's & up, R&B, Metal, Rock, Country, Rap, I could keep going. I listen to everything I can get my ears to listen to! lol Thanks!!!!

    Been watching the videos just haven't been commenting. Great video guys. For me Nickle back wasn't bad. It was a great band and people just don't like when something is overly popular. They had amazing songs and great albums. To me I still like Nickle back they are still good. It's like Creed with people. They just don't like the band because of their own logic. A lot of hate has to come with what has happened at their concerts as well. When people throw stuff on stage and all that junk, they don't tolerate it and leave without finishing like they should. So I think that's where some of their hate comes from, but when a famous rapper does it like Wayne when he was hit by a water bottle it was like they approve more of that than when Nickle Back does it. Someday was the first song that I was introduced into them and it was amazing. I'll post my list again just on a later video. Keep it going guys you are amazing.

Putting the thought into someones mind that another person of a different background and cultural can still enjoy the same music together even if for different reasons. The problem with humanity is lack of communication and you guys are communicating that music transcends todays political trends and view points in our world. You guys helped change my world that's for sure. God bless!

    I have a VERY VERY good ear for music and I always know when I hear a song from a band for the first time if a band will become very big or not. The first time I heard Nickelback I was amazed and I absolutely knew they would be big. They sounded so good and they just have all the attributes needed to have that big sound and I'm a heavy metal/thrash music lover since the 80's. The 90's were a miserable time with regard to rock/heavy metal/thrash music and for nearly 10 years, all we had was alternative(mostly crappy) music. Thank God for Nickleback! They were one of the first bands that helped get the world out of the alternative mudslide the 90's had put us on. If a band sounds good it sounds good and I think Nickelbacks huge success proves that.

  • @chesterschannel6627
    @chesterschannel6627 6 років тому +4

    All these people that hate on nickleback, were probably fans of them back when they were GOOD and once they got into the pop side, is when they stopped listening to them and "hate" them. If you don't like their newer stuff, don't just stop listening to them. Listen to the stuff you still like by them. Yes their music is the same. But that's what they are known for. For example. The hardcore metal band HATEBREED. Their music has been the same Damn style since their first album in the 90s. It's 2017 and they are still the same way on their newer album. I like nickleback. I love their older stuff. I don't like their newer stuff. But i still continue to listen to their older stuff because that's what I like from them.

      A counter example: considering the gushing love and admiration for Metallica these days, it's easy to forget (or maybe hard to believe if you weren't there) that there were significant parts of their fan base that, with every new album release, lamented how they were selling out. Similar stories for all sorts of great bands and I think rock and heavy metal fans are some of the worst for it.
      I think it's a natural narcissistic tendency to think of artists as ours, as speaking to us, and then feel betrayed if they stop; Show indifference to us and speak to other people instead. The better the band the more they speak to us and the deeper the feeling of betrayal. But it's so unfair and very sad. It becomes impossible to really experience the joy, edification and inspiration that music can bring with that monkey on your back.
