Nickelback is an alright band. Far from my favorite, I just don't get what all the hate was about.
In fact, I'd go as far as saying that their first album is pretty good, and I like it. Except from that song which is severely overplayed and mediocre.
Do yourself a favor and hear that cover bit they did for Metallica's "Sad but true". They're pretty good musicians actually but they just choose to do more corny/commercial stuff – which imho is not valid reason for the hate. Sad but true.
Choosing to produce generic and soulless music for profit isn't a good reason to dislike a band?
