I liked this and dark horse desu
There is nothing wrong with liking nickelback.
'Curb' 'Dark Horse' and 'Here and Now' are their best albums.
'All the Right Reasons' is infamous for having Rockstar and Photograph, which granted are shit songs, but it also has Savin Me, Side of A Bullet and If Everyone Cared that are great songs.
Haven't listened to 'Feed the Machine' or 'The State'
'Silver Side Up' 'The Long Road' and 'No Fixed Adress' are shit

Anon, the only albums of theirs worth a relisten are Curb and The State.

So what IS the argument for not liking nickelback? I mean I dont like them but I dont see them as a bad band either. Like I dont get the hate.

Chad's lyrics are extremely straightforward and lack any form of subtlety but his subject matter is standard radio friendly rock tropes so it isn't engaging or remarkable in anyway. They also stick to standard pop song structures and I don't think there's a single song of theirs after The State that wasn't Verse>chorus>verse>chorus>bridge>chorus so there aren't any surprises. They also seem to chase trends with a number of their singles but I haven't cared about keeping up with them since 8th grade so I really can't say.
Curb and The State don't have these problems and that's why I say they're fine albums.
Nickelback is pretty decent, most of the hate comes from memes from the early internet days that most have forgotten
