OK A-holes.  It's fixed.  Enjoy the orange links, because I have no fucking idea how to change them.  I basically learned scripting in four days to fix this damned thing. - Andy

Pickin' on...Nickelback?
« on: August 31, 2006, 06:20:07 PM »
Nickelback blows. They're absolutely terrible.

But these bluegrass yokels are pretty sweet. They're on the iTunes empire. Check out their version of that godawful song, "Someday."

Just to emphasize the important part. Wow, truer words never spoken.

Vh1 rock.  The videos they play from 1-8am, full of green tints and clothes from the mall and Paul Reed Smith guitars.  Started with Live, grew on to Matchbox 20, and has gotten considerably more infuriating in the years since ...


Yah mo B there!

I don't think I've laughed so hard at a song as I did when they spliced those 2 Nickelback songs (I think "Someday" and "This is How You Remind Me") over one another and they actually sounded like they belonged together.  I can't find it online now.  Lame.

Live, Matchbox 20, and Nickelback all suck so bad they should be forced to watch the Cubs every game as punishment.

And, sadly, Live is the freaking Beatles compared to Matchbox 20 and Nickelback.

Live evolved into one of the worst bands in history. Nickelback and Matchbox 20 were instantly carnated into being two of the worst bands in history.

Maroon 5 is on my list of worst bands ever, but that's more of an irrational hatred than an indictment on their lack of musical worth. Which is still zero.

I once found a website which played the two Nickelback hits (the names of which escape me, fortunately) side by side.  They're the same song - exactly the same song.  Same structure, same chords, same everything.

And Chad whateverhisnameis is easily the ugliest man on the face of the Earth.  Astonishingly ugly.  He ain't got no alibi.

Sorry, this is the first thread in the music section I've been able to follow, so I went with it.  I don't have a very sophisticated taste in music, nor a deep, meaningful relationship with it.  You might say, I knows what I hates, and I hates Nickelback.

The other day, Forkserker had me on "ignore," and now Tonker does?  What did I do to deserve this?

Heh heh, sorry Kerm, that'll teach me to read the thread properly.  At least I found the link, though...

You have done well, Tonker.  That mp3 is hilarious.

I never did like Creed Nickelback.
