Wrong! Leppard are awesome.... Nickelback aren't. :lol:

Hysteria is awesome. But atittide wise or coolness. It's about the same. British guys dressed like LA strippers or Canadians dressed like Kurt Cobain. Both have fun riffs and some listenable songs. 

Animal is probably one of my top 5 songs though.

Nickelback is by any means not a terrible band, they are just boring. 

True, it's just rock which is sometimes all I want. I mean Slipnot are insane. If I'm making ribs I'd rather listen to Nickelback.

Hysteria is a masterpiece, absolutely fantastic. Pyromania not far behind. Nickelback wish they could write a record half as good.

True I don't think they have a record. But they have a few songs. It's more that they are both rock, not really that serious, but still listenable. I don't think they have this mystique. Whenever I see a pic of Chad in his truck or Joe Eliot on a Harley I just chuckle.

Leppard are better on the strength of Joe's 80's mullet alone, a contender for best/worst hair ever. :lol:

:lol: Not nearly as iconic but it was a decent effort from Chad to be fair.

That's the problem there was very few options left. In terms of music and what body part becomes iconic. Moustaches playing Generic rock with a tinge of nu metal was all that was left.

Feeding the Machine is out, it won't be as good as Dark Horse based on the cover. DH has a belt buckle on the cover, Machine has like this alien backpack or something. Maybe it's like the alien technology concept album, Nickelback go prog. Nickelback's Hysteria.

Chad Kroger seems like one of those guys who says outrageous shit just to say it. I sort of grew out of Slipknot in the last couple years, but I'll still listen if they're on. Maybe I'll get back into it when their next album comes out.

Stone Sour, however, I think is a really cool band. Next time they come around Iowa I'm going to a show. I'm really stoked for their new album next week too.

Yeah, I'm really looking forward to it as well. I loved the 'House of Gold & Bones' albums.

This song is quite good, also a bit stalker-ish. I heard this years ago in a HMV and had to ask a guy who worked there who it was. I was really surprised it was Nickleback, it sounded to heavy for their brand of pop rock. So in that regard, they demonstrated diversity on that occasion.

Chad is a stupid moron,but i can't understand why Corey gave so much attention.

Kroeger merely scrambling for relevance. Corey should have just completely no sold it. 

 

Would love to have seen the reaction if Chad mouthed off about Axl back in his rantier days. No doubt get a 10 minute diatribe as an intro to DTJ.

I don't mind Nickelback, I mean I've listened to Slipnot but really since 2000 Nickelback are listenable, fun band. In a sort of Def Leppard way. They aren't badasses but then neither GNR now. So it's just rock music. 

the only song with Chad Kroeger i have ever liked is porn star dancing and he has  a lot of help :P
