Why do people hate Nickelback so much?
    #16135549 - 04/24/12 09:44 PM (11 years, 10 months ago)

Just after posting that music is not dead in another thread I think this will make me lose credibility.

Oh well :rolleyes:

I don't get the hate for this band. They have some decent stuff and some other really cool songs. But I've heard americans comparing them to Justin Bieber.

The only answer I could come up is because they are canadians.


Sooo, why do you hate Nickelback?

This kind of reactions are exactly what I don't get. You are comparing Nickelback to hitler. As a joke, but still.

I mean, objectively they really aren't that bad.





That last one is actually kinda funny.

someone post a really bad nickelback song, like one that would justify all the hate.

I don't think it's because they're Canadians. Most of us just have better taste in music.

....oh, they suck too.

"I have no way of knowing whether you, who eventually will read this record, like stories or not. If you do not, no doubt you have turned these pages without attention. I confess that I love them. Indeed, it often seems to me that of all the good things in the world, the only ones humanity can claim for itself are stories and music; the rest, mercy, beauty, sleep, clean water and hot food (as the Ascian would have said) are all the work of the Increate. Thus, stories are small things indeed in the scheme of the universe, but it is hard not to love best what is our own—hard for me, at least."

I hate Nickelback because they have a generic and pretentious sound. The vocalist grinds on his voice in a way that is predictable and cliche. The songs are unoriginal rehashed "modern classic rock" bullshit by design.

They're "not that bad" from a technical point of view, I admit. But they are terrible from a cultural point of view, if that makes any sense. Being "not that bad" is not justification. That's like saying you don't mind eating ketchup on spaghetti. You could fucking do it, but it's just a bunch of generic crap. Why not make a decent meal?

They are the epitome of mediocre. The fact that they did not attempt to transcend that level of expression, but rather chose to capitalize off of the mediocre-minded, is the epitome of why they catch so much flak.

To me it seems like it's been a fad to hate Nickelback for a few years.  Like it somehow validates one's personal musical taste to dis on them.

In my opinion there are plenty of bands like Nickelback that don't get nearly as much hate, but the bandwagon is already rollin.

I don't care for them, but I don't care for a lot of bands.  I don't think I hate any though.  Hating on music you don't even want to listen to seems exhausting :shrug:

might be because I don't like soft rock, modern rock or w/e at all, but I don't hear the difference between them and the other bands of the same genre :shrug:

You are right, there are plenty of bands that sound like them and deserve as much flak. And if they got to the level of notoriety that Nickelback has undeservedly attained, I believe they would catch said flak.

It's a fad to hate Nickelback because it's an even bigger fad to listen to them. Pick your camp.
