Nickelback

This mp3 plays the two Nickelback songs "Someday" and "How You Remind Me" at the same time.

And it doesn't sound half as bad as you would think.

It just goes to show you how much their songs sound alike. The choruses come in at the same time and everything. Interesting.

Their music is so boring...

*Mars-Chan* · 04-02-2004, 09:59 AM

IT IS NOT!!!! I happen to *LIKE* that band!!!!
*hums "Someday"*

I remember liking one of their songs a while back. They're not bad. I'm not going to badmouth them.

**Barkworm** · 04-02-2004, 10:07 AM

They have some good songs but they're definitely the kind of band that will be forgotten in ten years. It's just that their music has nothing "special". hard to describe...

Ugh. I hate Nickleback.

Yeah, they do tend to make the same song over and over again.

I had the same problem with Everclear.

EDIT: HOLY CRAP! I knew they wrote the same song over and over, I didn't know it was that synced up.

*Dr. Doom* · 04-02-2004, 10:39 AM

Too many bands think they can get away with flooding the industry with the same songs these days, it's sad.

Peanut · 04-02-2004, 10:44 AM

Wow! I just listened to that! That is just....wow. They really do suck!

*Stone Ill* · 04-02-2004, 11:31 AM

Shut up Michaelangelo.

Those are radio-songs. Do not let them represent the whole band.

Peanut · 04-02-2004, 12:04 PM

No I'm not going to shut up. I think they suck.

Hm... shoulden't they be releasing diffrent sounding songs from albums though? Instead of the same "My girlfriend left me" pop-rock ballads? Maybe some of their edgier rock tunes... that happen to sound the same as each other. >_>.

And before I get torn in to, yes I HAVE listened to more than their singles. Infact I used to like them quite a bit, untill I saw them live and realized how damed bland and boring they are. Hell, Local H and Kittie were better musicians live than they were (read: CROWD INTERACTION other than just saying "hi, we're _____ and this is our new single _____"), but they don't get any radio play anymore.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I'll be going back to the local college station

*is listening to it right now*

Whoa

*Wes* · 04-02-2004, 01:58 PM

Ha, this is amazing. I'm not exceedingly familiar with Nickelback, but I've heard these songs seperately on the radio and stuff and I liked them...but jeez, if Nickelback keeps putting out pretty much the same song, that's lame. I do like these songs, but if one's just as good as another...they might as well just stick with one.

Mondo J. Gecko · 04-02-2004, 02:27 PM

ok man.... thats just weird.... but funny... I'm actually a fan of Nickelbacks music, but thats kinda scary.... they sound really quite the same... I still think they have good Music and that Chad Kroger is a good song writer, but thats pretty funny stuff

.... but after listening to al of it, its not real... they sped up "someday" so that they played insync with the "How you remind me".... its just somebody who is trying to put the hate on Nickelback...

*Taloniss* · 04-02-2004, 02:28 PM

haha. That's great. Unlike Nickelback.

My thoughts exactly. Nickelback falls into this category as well.

InsertWittyNameHere · 04-02-2004, 06:56 PM

Oh boy, if only my sister, who's a big Nickelback fan, was reading all of this right now...

*raphael_is_cool* · 04-02-2004, 07:05 PM

Haha nice find

While it can be hard for bands to write new and varying songs (you have to fit to certain chord sequences for certain keys and progressions) those 2 songs have segments that seem planned in the same way such as the breakdown bridge bit, weird
