Never Gonna Be Alone "Never Gonna Be Alone" is the 6th single off of Nickelback's sixth studio album Dark Horse, to be released on September 29th. The song is a power ballad, similar to other hits by the band such as, "I'd Come For You", "Far Away", and "If Everyone Cared"."Never Gonna Be Alone" reached #68 on The Billboard Hot 100 a few months before it was released as a single.Was this a good...
"Burn It To The Ground" is the fourth single off Nickelback's most recent album Dark Horse. Unfortunately, this is the kind of Nickelback music that I don't care for. The video is live, which isn't a plus either, though they do go all out with the explosions & everything.
Nickelback have announced details of another sizeable tour, this time playing a range of arenas next May. The Canadian foursome will be playing some more UK dates in support of their sixth studio album, "All the Right Reasons", including another night at London's huge O2 Arena. Support acts haven't been confirmed yet, but will be soon no [...]
Chad Kroeger laughs when asked if the phenomenal sales for 2005's "All the Right Reasons" gave confidence to Nickelback as it set out to make its sixth studio album, "Dark Horse."Full story here.
Some targets are so easy it seems almost shameful to hit them (Chinese Democracy, anyone?). And so it is with a twinge of regret (just a twinge, mind you) that I join the music-critic dogpile on top of Nickelback's new release Dark Horse.Dark Horse being, of course, a faintly ridiculous name for the latest album by a platinum-selling corporate rock hit machine. But then, many things about thi...
I realize that Chewing Gum For The Ears leans much more toward the indie/alternative side of music, but I still dig a good rock 'n' roll record every once in a while. Back in high school, I enjoyed Nickelback's first two U.S. releases The State and Silver Side Up despite the fact that both were big, dumb rock records. Since that time, I always give the new Nickelback album a listen, just fo...
Chances are not many folks are going to take the time to review the new album from Nickelback and will instead just give it a categorical thrashing. So when the album leaked earlier this week I allowed my curiosity (and yes, my casual fandom) to get the better of me and I grabbed a copy of Dark Horse , the band's sixth record. Produced by Mutt Lange, Dark Horse is in many ways a far cry from t...
With every album release Nickelback manage to produce a host of chart filling singles but the new track from the Canadian rockers seems extra special. "Gotta Be Somebody" has already been filling the top ten from the album "Dark Horse" (set to be released on the 18th November) and it did well to not disappoint [...]
Apparently you aren't the only one who thinks all Nickelback songs sound the same. In response to this video, bass player Mike Kroeger said "I think that's remarkable for someone to notice that there is a hit quality. If all hits sound the same, then sorry. When you are a band that has a distinct style [...]
At a dinner party, you've got to go around the table and ask the obligatory questions: What's your name? What do you do?Accountant boring. Broker typical. Professional videogame player this guy has got to be kidding me. How cool! Why can't I do that?Yes, there are those jobs out there in the workforce that many people would rather be doing, especially if it involves games, sports or lingerie mo...
Jaded? Perhaps, but I consider any day that I am not exposed to Nickelback to be a good day. Years ago, Hoobastank was operating in much the same position. Yet, it was Kenton Shelley himself who came up with perhaps the most unholy combination of radio-friendly, corporately-certified aggressive modern “rock” – Nickelstank. Yes, the combination of Nickelback and Hoobastank. Please, do not try

For an investigative/advisory piece I am working on, I am looking to hear experiences of any kind relating to fake music promoters/publicists - victims, lawyers, musicians whose names were falsely used in some way, etc. I'd particularly love to hear from anyone who has (successfully or unsuccessfully) undertaken legal action against these characters. If you can assist, please drop me a message ...
