      Grunge Personally, I don't Care too much.I was curious about the reasons, that's pretty much it. I will say though that I think its overblown. People tend to overreact to small issues. Want something to be upset about, too thin-skinned, etc.

    I’m a metal head , and I love lots of genres of metal and other bands, I’m a big Dean Martin fan aswell and I’ve seen lots of bands, a few years ago I saw Nickelback live in Manchester with my girlfriend, (she was a fan) and the arena was sold out, they were brilliant live. When they performed “RockStar”Chad got 3 fans on stage to sing it with him, 2 girls and a disabled boy which was very nice to see. I Don’t know Why people hate them, my girl hates Heavy Metal, lots of people hate all different types of music. I don’t like boy bands but someone must like them because they’re selling tickets, If we all liked the same music the world would be boring. (I know everyone is different and have different views, this is just my opinion)

      I never understood why they are hated to the point that pop culture always berate them for their "bad music". I'm not a die hard fan but once I saw lullaby play on tv. Back then I couldn't understand English very well but the visuals of MV and the vocals of the singer spoke to me. I will always have a soft spot for Nickleback because of lullaby. Nothing beats the nostalgia when I listen to that song.

    I grew up listening to Nickelback, Greenday, and Skillet, so I don't really care if other people hate the people who make the music, I still enjoy it. It's okay to distance the art from the artist and it's okay to like something even if the person who made it is a douche. People still like Harry Potter after all.

      @Master Epps speaking as a man, there's a difference between unnecessary credit and just simply not shitting on people... most modern rap artists objectify women. LISTEN TO THOSE LYRICS AND YOU'LL GET IT. In fact, most modern rap has just become trashy; and that's not just the disrespect part; I'm also referring to the fact that all I ever hear is about fame, sex, drugs, and money.
      Put this into perspective; a modern male rapper makes a song about forcing women into sex and about how to use them. Now imagine a female rapper/singer making a song about manipulating men into sex and about how to manipulate them... technically, it's the same; a person shitting on a person. Sooo... I wasn't giving women "unnecessary credit", I was just saying how most modern rap is trashy in my opinion and why.

      Of course their lyrics are offensive, they are a rock band. I will not defend their lyrics but I think they were not the only ones who overdid it. There are many examples of artists whose lives were ruined or even ended by drugs (Whitney Houston, Kurt Cobain, etc). Instead of hating people you don't like, support people you do like. The internet is great for spreading content to a broad audience. It is often used to spread benevolence, love and support. However, and that is sad, it is also abused to spread hate. When you like something, you can find thousands of people to talk to who also like that. Hate doesn't belong in the internet. Make a difference. Much love to Nickelback, I loved to hear you when I was younger and I think I'm gonna hear you more in the future.

      Bill The Grammar Supremacist their first four albums were pure post-grunge or rock, and a large portion of everything they've released since have also been rock. I won't deny that a lot of their stuff sounds generic, but it's not just pop.

    I would say the "Misogyny" aspect was corporate demand. If you listen to their Silver Side Up album, there was an Anti-abuse theme on Never Again, How You Remind Me, and especially Just For. the portrayal of a strong woman figure in Too Bad isn't very "Misogynistic" as well. Sex sells, and that's what the produces wanted.

There are plenty of great rappers out there like Kendrick Lamar, Tyler the creator, Nas, Jay-Z,Kanye West,(he may be an egocentric but he's still a great musician) and the list goes on. Unfortunately most of the rap music played on the radio is bland and commercial, and the radio is rarely a good reference for good music. If you want to listen to what rap can be, I suggest you listen to the album, "To pimp a butterfly" by Kendrick and "My beautiful dark twisted fantasy" by West, for starters.

    I've never bought a Nickelback cd or downloaded any of their music and It's mainly because I was already in my late 30s, married and raising a family by the time they burst onto the scene so I was no longer buying music and rocking out at home. However I did hear plenty of their music on the radio, mainly while driving. I did and still do think they were a pretty good band. Sure they had a lot of songs that sounded similar but they also had songs that were not as heavy and told sad stories about life. As far as them putting out songs that were considered degrading to women, well, yeah they did but let's be honest here, anyone who has listened to rock, blues rap and even other forms of music would have to ignore many, many songs to say Nickelback were the originators of this subject in lyrics in music. As far as outrageous behavior, have you ever heard of Led Zeppelin, The Who, Aerosmith, The Doors, Ted Nugent, Motorhead, etc, etc? I'm not even touching on the countless rap artists who make these guys look like choir boys. I say about 90% of the haters are idiots who jump on bandwagons in order to fit in with the crowd.

    I use to work at a fancy restaurant that a lot of celebrities visited. I waited on Nickelback & Daughtry back in 2006. Chad Kroeger, in particular, but his other bandmates as well were the funniest, coolest & most down-to-earth celebrities I had the pleasure of interacting with, and that list is over 200 long. If you hate their music, I guess that's fine, but hating the individuals is a mistake. They're good guys.... Edit: If you read between the lines, I'm saying a lot of celebrities are stuck up jerks & the guys from Nickelback were anything but.

    In rock\metal music it is common to pick on bands that sound less heavy. I mean, metalheads bully hardcore and alternative fans, whose bully nu metal and rock genres, whose bully pop rock. And they all are picking on Nickelback, as the most radio-friendly band out there. And it's also about soft rock fans, who just don't belong to the heavier or "true" music.
    Much of this is a result of a very young majority of rock fans. Kids are like 16, so anything that doesn't conflict with their parents aren't considered worthy of listening. And then they just stick to this.
