Ok, who hates NICKLEBACK ?!
Worst. Band. Ever.

Surprised nobody's brought it up yet.

I hate Creed too. But frankly, I'd take Creed over Nickleback. At least Creed has some sense of melody (even if it's HIGHLY derivative and grating) and a lead singer who at least sounds alright.

Nickleback has NO melody, a HORRIBLE lead singer, and is completely impossible for me to listen to without wanting to rip my head off.

:shudders:

8. Ha! I was just going to post that link.
You beat me to it.

Fucking brilliant.

I had to work at a Nickelback/3 Doors Down/Puddle of Mudd concert over the 4th this summer. It was awful. My ears better be fully healed by the time I go see Bruce.

3. I'm not familiar enough with them to hate them
But what does the name "Nickleback" refer to? I've wondered that before. Sounds like a football term.

5. you mean
Creed and Nickelback are different groups? I think all "alt-rock" bands are sort of like the Blue Man Group...a bunch of guys who all look and sound the same, and just revolve in and out so as to cover the most venues possible.

6. i think you owe Blue Man Group an apology.
at least their generic sounding songs are cool.

7. Yikes, my mistake
How silly of me.

I guess we're still finding the answer to the question, 'How many Pearl Jam cover bands can there possibly be?'

10. Pearl Jam cover groups?
You're equating a band that's been putting out records for over a decade with a band that has song lyrics like "I like your pants around your feet?" Just because you label things as "alternative" does not make them all equal. Jesus Jumping Christ.

13. I thought it was universal.
Unnecessary to bring up because it's so obvious.
