Why is Nickelback the worst band ever?

Because Kajagoogoo didn't get their candidacy filed in time?

That's a great question. The lyrics to their hit song "Photograph" may provide some clarity...

"Look at this photograph

Every time I do it makes me laugh

How did our eyes get so red?

And what the hell is on Joey’s head?"

Those are terrible. All of their songs sound alike (with the exception of 'Rockstar' in which Chad Kroeger once-overed his vocal chords with large grit sandpaper prior to recording) and most people don't care.

I think Nickelback was initially released as The Worst Band Ever. It was supposed to be really obvious, but people got confused about whether they should love them or hate them. They heard drums and what could be mistaken for decent guitar playing and decided we needed 5 albums in 5 years from these musical phenoms.

They're unoriginal. They can barely play their instruments. I think they just went on the street and picked out random people to be in that band, regardless of musical background. And last but not least, Chad Kroeger is a joke of a vocalist. He can't sing, at all. He sounds like a dying mule.

I was pretty confident in my choice for worst band ever till my kids introduced me to Lamb of God...my ears are still bleeding

<<<has Chaka Khan on playlist

Do I understand correctly, that you don't think Jonas Brothers are the worse band ever?

Jonas Brothers are the spawn of the devil himself, disguised as Disney.

The jonas brothers are the worst band ever.

What a load of crap, they are far from the worst band!!! Have you heard of the Jonas brothers?

At least when you hear a song from them on the radio that you've never heard before, you know right away to turn them off because every single one sounds the same.

You got me. I'm torn between them and Hinder for worst band on the face of the planet.

and to think, had it been 10 years ago, my vote would have went to Firehouse.

If I hear one more person call them a rock "icon" my day dream of going on a 4 state killing spree will become a reality!

I agree!!

But why are there starving children? Why do people die? Why do puppies get sick??? Sometimes, bad things just ARE. Nickelback falls into that category.

But take comfort, at least Creed doesn't exist anymore.....
