Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com
Throughout their nine-year career, Nickelback have stayed true to their roots, releasing five CDs of straight-up, unapologetic rock & roll. So how have things changed for the Canadian boys since the massive success of Silver Side Up and The Long Road? Well, brothers Chad and Mike Kroeger still live in the Great White North, and they still write hook-laden rock songs. The only difference now is that they have the satisfaction, 10 million CDs later, of smugly knowing that even some of their biggest naysayers will guiltily admit to singing along with Nickelback's catchy hits. On All the Right Reasons, one track definitely ranks high up in hum-ability: the first single, "Photograph," reminisces about the bittersweetness of high school in a small town--once again reconfirming frontman Chad Kroeger's ability to write memorable hooks. Regarding the rest of the disc: standard rock topics like love, lust, jealousy, and breakups abound, with riff-y delivery that longtime fans will love. The guilty pleasure bunch will also find what they need within the grooves, on the ballad "If Everyone Cared," the riff-heavy "Fight for All the Wrong Reasons," and the Metallica-inspired "Savin' Me." The disc's most impressive and simultaneously surreal moment, however, exists on "Side of a Bullet," a passionate revenge tale written about the killer of Pantera guitarist "Dimebag" Darrell Abbott, which features one of the late Abbott's guitar solos as donated by Pantera bandmate and brother, drummer Vinnie Paul. --Denise Sheppard

5 out of 5 stars It Rocks.......2007-07-26

If you're a Nickelback fan, you won't be disappointed. Every song is great, Rock Star (track 11) is the best.

5 out of 5 stars For All the Right Reasons, This Album Rocks!.......2007-07-17

Nice and powerful rock songs became a rarity in today's world, dominated by hip-hop and electronic beats with some vulgar lyrical content. Thank God, Nickelback is around to rescue us from this perverse world that we live in today.

"All the Right Reasons" is a long-standing Billboard Top 40 album for almost two years in a row and not by fate. These guys really play good music. They remain consistent to their roots. They are competent musicians. They are one of the few remains of the true rock music spirit with an advantage: these aren't nasty or poser guys.

Honestly, the entire album is a pleasure. Picking one or another song and call it a favorite is just unfair to all of the others. Most records can be described in a few words and have a couple or so of good music. This one is truly an exception - a happy one.

5 out of 5 stars Nickelback is Fantastic.......2007-07-07

Great songs, great band. I play this CD every single day and sometimes 2-3 times a day.

4 out of 5 stars The Creation Of Pop-Metal.......2007-06-15

Nickelback has never failed to amaze me. Even though their newest catalog release has more of a pop essence than their previous attempts, they have managed to do something else: ride the new pop-metal wave. Pop-metal, first created by newer alternative bands such as Seether or Evanescence, has seen it's share of ups and downs. This is most definitely an up. It has amazing riffs, powerful vocals, and an arsenal of great radio tunes. Normally, I don't condone the pop revolution, but in the case of pop-metal, these guys have given it a decent name in recent years. Granted, you eventually get a little worn out by constant airplay, but it never stops me from occasionally popping this disc in my drives and just rocking out. Even the over-played "Rockstar" has it's kicks. Other than that sad attempt known as "Photograph," I can honestly say that every track on this album is worth hearing.

4 out of 5 stars Awesome CD!!!.......2007-06-01

I Think This Is The Best Nickleback CD So Far! Almost Every Song On The Album Is Awesome.I Think That About 9 Songs Really Stand Out On This Album.Deffinitely Go Out & Purchase This CD!

    Album Description

    Nickelback is the music business success story of the year. All The Right Reasons was released in October 2005, and has scanned over 5 million copies in the US to date. The album spawned SIX #1 hit singles at various formats: "Photograph," "Animals," "Savin' Me," "Rock Star," "Far Away" and "If Everyone Cared." The four Top 40 #1 singles are the most Number Ones by any artist since the 1996 launch of the Nielsen BDS chart. All The Right Reasons, a #1 debut on the Billboard Top 200, also becomes the first album to produce three Hot A/C Number One hits. Each of the videos for the hits also went to Number One on Vh1's Video Countdown. After a year and a half, the album is still in the Top 25, with new single campaigns at both Rock Radio ("Side of a Bullet") and Top 40 ("Rock Star"). The Special Edition of All The Right Reasons features three bonus live tracks from their exciting world tour 2006, plus a DVD Tour Diary. The Tour Diary offers a first-time look at what it's like to be on tour with Nickelback. Go on the road with the band at the peak of their career and experience a personal look into backstage, soundcheck, down time, being interviewed by press and meeting and greeting fans. Plus, fans will get the band's perspective of the live show from the stage and from the crew's viewpoint.
