Just tried to watch three Nickelback videos - couldn't do it. Couldn't even watch one. Awful.

[Rabrrrrrr]

Seriously, just how much do Nickelback suck?

Are there even words in human language for it?

Tried to watch them perform Sharp Dressed Man by ZZ Top, had to stop at it at the guitar solo, it was so utterly devoid of anything of interest.

Then tried to watch a concert video of them churning out some song of their own, stopped it about 30 seconds in as soon as the "singer" started singing. What crap.

Then tried to watch some studio video of them - that lasted about fifteen seconds.

Then I came here, because I simply had to post about how awful they are.

It all began with me watching a slew of Heart videos - there's a band that knows how to fucking rock. Nickelback could learn a lot from them. Well, they could theoretically; I doubt that they have the intelligent to ever actually be able to.

Are Nickelback fans the dumbest music fans in the world? Or do the fans of American Idol-style caterwauling count as the dumbest music fans in the world?

Could be a toss up.

1. Here's a great one: Nickelback covers itself!

Here are two Nickelback "songs," three years apart, that are the same song!

They would be mortally embarrassed, if shame still existed.

2. They remind me of those shitty "Christian" bands that try to sound metal but don't have the balls.

3. Like "Creed?"

They are every bit as bad as the '80s "Christian" bands like Stryper (RATT + Bible = Stryper), although my favorite was "Petra," whose motto was "Our rock is not as their rock." Boy, they had that right! It was almost as if they didn't rock at all.

4. They have different taste than you.

All seem to be party animals.

5. I want to use Bill Hicks' idea for a reality show: rid the world of all fevered egos.

We can start with Chad Kroger.
