    So hating Nickleback become a meme which actually managed to keep the band alive for way longer then other bands in the same category. They still managed to get concerts with great reception for a very long time after their prime with Photograph.

    I saw one interview where they said that once the “hate” dies they’ll not know what to do.

      I actually enjoy a number of Nickleback songs. The “hate” was meme’d to the heavens but the band isn’t really that bad and Chad Kroeger legit has a good singing voice.

        His singing voice is pretty polarizing I’d say, a lot of people don’t like it.

        I slot them right next to Imagine Dragons; commercial pop rock, all their shit sounds the same, it’s scenery, I don’t need to go watch em for two hours or buy an album but it doesn’t bother me.
