    This is what happens with Nickelback - most haters hate them based on their radio (pop) hits (which are great IMO), but they rarely take the time to listen to their whole catalogue to properly criticize them.
    Nickelback is 1/3 hard rock (I wouldn’t go as far as calling it metal), 1/3 mainstream rock, 1/3 power ballads. If you like this, there are several from the first third I mentioned that will surprise you and you’ll enjoy (Fight for All the Wrong Reasons, Side of a Bullet, Burn it to the Ground, Coin for the Ferryman, The Betrayal… uff so many). About 4-5 song off of every album is similar in style to this… go ahead, give it a try - I bet you’ll post another reaction video because of how good it is.
    This one is a banger - can’t wait for the whole album in Nov

      I would say my biggest gripe with Nickelback is lyrically and vocally. Their lyrics for some of their songs are not very good at all. BUT they are excellent musicians and do have some really good songs.

    Love this one but I'm surprised so many people think this is heavy for them. They have certainly done this before. The line "Burn it to the Ground" in the second verse I think is a reference to the song of the same name, which I'd say is one of them. Also "Side of a Bullet" and "Never Again" are on this level.

  • @digitxl2022

    Side of a bullet, Because of you, Woke up this morning, Hangnail, Flat on the Floor, Do this anymore, Animals, Burn it to the ground, This means War, Feed the Machine, Fight for all the wrong Reasons, Follow you Home, Throw yourself away, Figured you Out, Something in Your Mouth.
    All absolutely amazing heavy/hard rock songs similar to San Quentin. So many people sleep on Nickelback being heavy as fuck because all they've heard is "How you Remind Me".

    This is definitely a tune up in heaviness from anything they have ever done before. I have never looked at Nickelback as a bad or cringey band because I grew up around it. Although I'm into straight heavy metal, this was nice. I hope the rest of their upcoming album is like this. As surprised as I am to say it, this one is going on the playlist.

    Always makes me laugh when people say, "This is heavy for Nickelback " based on the radio-centric songs released. The heavier stuff has always been been there, people just dismissed them as a sell-out because of radio played songs. Check out "Hangnail ", "Never Again ", "Coin for the Ferryman ", "Feed the Machine". You'll discover what fans have been saying for decades! They got some goods. Glad you enjoyed 😉

    Fun fact , Nickelback is from Canada . Also a fun fact , the back side of a Canadian nickel has a beaver on it . So Nickelback is really into beavers , or something else that's also been referred to as as a beaver .

    I understand metal purists not liking Nickleback, because they are not metal. But for casual rock fans, I don't get the hate. I think alot of it is peer pressure, and ditto-head nonsense.
