Throughout their nine-year career, Nickelback have stayed true to their roots, releasing five CDs of straight-up, unapologetic rock & roll. So how have things changed for the Canadian boys since the massive success of Silver Side Up and The Long Road? Well, brothers Chad and Mike Kroeger still live in the Great White North, and they still write hook-laden rock songs. The only difference now is that they have the satisfaction, 10 million CDs later, of smugly knowing that even some of their biggest naysayers will guiltily admit to singing along with Nickelback's catchy hits. On All the Right Reasons, one track definitely ranks high up in hum-ability: the first single, "Photograph," reminisces about the bittersweetness of high school in a small town--once again reconfirming frontman Chad Kroeger's ability to write memorable hooks. Regarding the rest of the disc: standard rock topics like love, lust, jealousy, and breakups abound, with riff-y delivery that longtime fans will love. The guilty pleasure bunch will also find what they need within the grooves, on the ballad "If Everyone Cared," the riff-heavy "Fight for All the Wrong Reasons," and the Metallica-inspired "Savin' Me." The disc's most impressive and simultaneously surreal moment, however, exists on "Side of a Bullet," a passionate revenge tale written about the killer of Pantera guitarist "Dimebag" Darrell Abbott, which features one of the late Abbott's guitar solos as donated by Pantera bandmate and brother, drummer Vinnie Paul. --Denise Sheppard

5 out of 5 stars definitely the sound of rockstars   July 2, 2008
Alexandria Ridler (Norfolk Virginia United States)
This album is so good that its honestly challenging of me to think of which ones are my favorites. This album will grow on you each listen. My husband got this album for me as a birthday gift and I am glad that he did. The reason being is that I really thought all of the songs on the cd are great. However my top five favorite songs on this cd are "animals", "if everyone cared", "rockstar", "saving me" and "follow you home". The thing that I like most about this cd is that it is an all purpose cd in the fact that you can listen to it in multiple occasions. I have listened to it on my way to and from work, when I go for walks outside, at work, and at home. The best thing about this cd is there are is going to a song for everyone that is on this album.


5 out of 5 stars A Band that Belongs in the Spotlight   June 5, 2008
Gracie Houston (Santa Cruz, California)
Nickelback achieved commercial success with their release of Silver Side Up years ago, but then maybe lost things a bit with their follow up album The Long Road. So now they're back. The album opens with "Follow You Home" and it's heavy and strong and it sounds like singer Chad Kroeger is angry and mad at the world. It gives you the vibe that the band is trying to make a point with their last album not doing so well and want to come back with a vengeance.

The album continues in the same vein with the second track "Fight For All The Wrong Reasons", with heavy guitars and strong vocals. Then the album moves to a more commercial rock vibe. The songs have the catchy choruses, big backing vocals and typical power chords. This album is definitely better than the band's last effort and the closer "Rock Star" I liked very much and can hear it as a single. Hopefully this album will bring Nickelback back into the spotlight, right where they belong.



5 out of 5 stars One of the Best CDs Ever   May 8, 2008

The new king of overrated hack, no talent bands that don't deserve the praise they get. Another album of the same exact stuff.
