History

Curb and The State (1995–2000)

Nickelback was formed in 1995 by Chad Kroeger, Ryan Peake, Mike Kroeger, and Brandon Kroeger. Its name originates from the nickel in change that band member Mike Kroeger gave customers at his job at Starbucks; he would frequently say, "Here's your nickel back."[9][10] Nickelback's first release was a seven-track EP called Hesher in 1996.[10] In the same year, they also recorded their first full-length album Curb. "Fly" was included on both Hesher and Curb and was the first single produced by Nickelback. In 1997, Brandon Kroeger left the band and the band searched for a new drummer. Later that year Mitch Guindon join the band, but he decided to leave in 1998 because he started working in a car company. In Summer 1998, Ryan Vikedal joined the band.

Roadrunner A&R Ron Burman told HitQuarters that one of his West Coast scouts sent him the self-released album and, suitably impressed, he travelled to Vancouver to see them perform live. Although an unknown property in the industry at the time, the venue was packed out. In Burman's words: "I immediately got the chills! I thought their song "Leader of Men" was a smash hit."[11] Off the stage he was impressed by their industry and initiative in managing their career: Despite this it still took Burman three months for him to convince his label bosses' to approve the signing, a decision that would mark Roadrunner's first move into mainstream rock.[11] Nickelback signed a record deal with EMI and Roadrunner Records. In late 1998, the band fired their managers and started managing themselves. Mike Kroeger handled all the distribution, Chad – all the radio tracking, and Ryan Vikedal – all the bookings. In 1999, Roadrunner Records signed Nickelback because the band sold more than 10,000 copies of Hesher and their first album Curb as an independent label.

The State, was released by Nickelback in 2000 by Roadrunner Records and EMI Canada. The State, was released in Europe in 2001. It spawned 4 singles: "Old Enough", "Worthy To Say" plus the hits "Leader of Men" and "Breathe", which were Top 10 rock hits and resulted in the album being certificated gold in the United States in late 2001. It reached Platinum status in 2008, after the success of three consecutive multi-platinum efforts.[12] Nickelback toured with other bands such as Creed, SevenDust, and 3 Doors Down in their State tour. Nickelback won a Juno Award in 2001, for best new group. The State has sold over one million copies worldwide. The album entered the Billboard 200 albums charts in position number 130 and peaked at number 3 in the Billboard Top Heatseekers albums chart and peaked at number 6 on the Billboard Top Independent albums chart.[13]

Silver Side Up and The Long Road (2001–04)

Around 2001 Chad Kroeger started "studying every piece, everything sonically, everything lyrically, everything musically, chord structure. I would dissect every single song that I would hear on the radio or every song that had ever done well on a chart and I would say, 'Why did this do well?'" Nickelback's single "How You Remind Me," Kroeger told Bliss, sold so well because it was about romantic relationships, a universal subject, and contained memorable hooks.[14]

To record their third album Silver Side Up, Nickelback worked with producer Rick Parashar. The album was written before the release The State and was recorded at the same studio.[15] The disc was released on Tuesday, September 11, 2001. The single "How You Remind Me" was a number one single on the Mainstream and Modern rock charts, as well as the pop chart. It also peaked at number two on Adult Top 40 and became the Billboard Hot 100 number one single of the year for 2001. The next single was "Too Bad", which also reached number one on the Mainstream Rock Chart and had a small amount of success on the pop chart. The final single from the album was "Never Again", another number one hit on Mainstream Rock.

In 2002, Chad Kroeger collaborated with Josey Scott on the Spider-Man theme song, "Hero". This recording also featured Tyler Connolly, Mike Kroeger, Matt Cameron, and Jeremy Taggart. In 2002, Nickelback released their first DVD Live at Home. In 2002 they re-released their first album Curb, with RoadRunner Records. Silver Side Up has sold over 10 million copies worldwide.

In 2003, Nickelback released The Long Road. The album was certified 3x Platinum by the RIAA in March 2005 and it had sold 3,591,000 copies as of April 2011.[16] It has sold over 5 million copies worldwide and in 2003 only the album sold 2 million copies worldwide.[17] It debuted at #6 on the Billboard 200.

It was ranked #157 on Billboard's 200 Albums of the Decade.[18] It spawned five singles. The lead single was "Someday" .[19] The band also released "Feelin' Way Too Damn Good" as a single, which peaked at number 3 on the Mainstream Rock Charts. "Figured You Out" was also released as a single and topped the Mainstream Rock Charts for 13 consecutive weeks.

All the Right Reasons (2005–07)

Between albums, in 2005, drummer Ryan Vikedal left the band. He claimed the rest of the band had pushed him out because he was not the type of drummer they wanted. 3 Doors Down's drummer Daniel Adair joined Nickelback. "We are totally thrilled to have Daniel in the band," Chad said. "The creativity that went on with him in the studio was really inspiring. He’s a totally amazing player." [20] The group was inducted into Canada's Walk of Fame in 2007. Nickelback's fifth studio album, All the Right Reasons (2005), produced five U.S. Hot 100 top 20 singles: "Photograph", "Savin' Me", "Far Away", "If Everyone Cared" and "Rockstar". Three of these became U.S. Hot 100 top 10 singles. It included appearances by Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top, who played a guitar solo on the song "Follow You Home" and sang backing vocals on "Rock Star"—and a posthumously sampled appearance by Chad Kroeger's friend Dimebag Darrell from Pantera, culled from guitar outtakes. The band also used more acoustic sound on some songs. "Savin' Me," for instance, included strings and piano as well as guitars. "We were a little scared of using piano," Chad Kroeger said in a biography on the band's website.[14] "We just didn't think it was very rock and roll." But once they heard the result, he added, they liked it. All the Right Reasons had sold 7,357,944 copies in the US to June 19, 2010.[21] In total, All the Right Reasons has sold more than 11 million copies worldwide since its 2005 release. Aside from all the success of All the Right Reasons, lead singer Kroeger began his own label named 604 Records in 2005 and holds the position of executive producer.

In November 2005, Nickelback asked that Vikedal and his production company Ladekiv Music, Inc., give all financial interest in future royalties for the songs, featuring Vikedal as drummer and return any public performance royalties earned since January 2005.

Nickelback spent much of 2006 touring. Chad Kroeger was arrested in the Surrey, British Columbia in June and charged with drunken driving. His attorney entered a plea of not guilty on his behalf at a court hearing in August. In November of 2006, Nickelback won an American Music Award for best pop/rock album, surprising the band itself. "We just kinda showed up because we were supposed to give one of these away tonight," Chad Kroeger said after receiving the award. Kroeger added he had thought the Red Hot Chili Peppers would win the award.

Dark Horse (2008–10)

After taking much of 2007 off, the band started recording new album in earnest. In July 2008, the band signed with Live Nation for three touring and album cycles, with an option for a fourth. The contract includes recordings, touring, merchandise and other rights.[22]

On September 4, 2008, Roadrunner Records announced that the first single from the upcoming album would be "If Today Was Your Last Day", to be released on September 30, 2008. However, the song was replaced by "Gotta Be Somebody".[23] The new album, produced by Mutt Lange and titled Dark Horse, was released on November 18, 2008.[24] "Something in Your Mouth" was released as the second single to rock radio only on 15 December, where it reached number one. "If Today Was Your Last Day" was released as the third single. Four more singles were released, "I'd Come for You", "Burn It to the Ground" (which would become the theme for WWE RAW) and "Never Gonna Be Alone" released in September and "Shakin' Hands" as the seventh single on 16 November.[25] Its eighth single, "This Afternoon", was released on March 23, 2010. Dark Horse was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) on December 9, 2008, only three weeks after its North American release. The album also remained in the top 20 on the Billboard 200 for weeks after its release.[26][27] The album was certified two times platinum in April 2009, and had by April 2010 sold over 3 million copies in the U.S.[27] Burn it to the Ground was also nominated for Best Hard Rock Performance at the 52nd Grammy Awards but lost to AC/DC's "War Machine". The album won numerous accolades at the 2009 Juno Awards, winning three out of five of its nominated awards including "Rock Album of the Year". However, critical reception of the album has been mostly mixed to negative.[28]

On February 28, 2010, Nickelback gave a performance at the beginning of the concert portion of the 2010 Winter Olympics closing ceremony, performing "Burn It to the Ground". On October 2010 Nickelback finished their Dark Horse Tour.[29]

Here and Now (2011-present)

Chad Kroeger said in an interview with Billboard.com in September 2010 that songwriting for the next Nickelback album was planned to commence as early as February 2011 with "about four tunes" already in mind.[30] Adair mentioned that the band wanted to go back to the musical style of All The Right Reasons, which he described as "more organic."[31]

Nickelback announced their new album, Here and Now, on September 8, 2011, along with its two lead singles, "Bottoms Up" and "When We Stand Together". Kroeger said “We’re four people who love making music, the way we like to make it. We entered the studio this year with a vision, and it all came together. We’re extremely happy with the results, and can’t wait to share them with our fans.” The album was released on November 21, 2011, with the band calling it 'Nickelblack Monday' (a play on Nickelback and Black Monday, as seen before the release on their website), while the two singles were released to radio stations on September 26, and September 27 for purchase on iTunes.[32] Nickelback will be touring in support of the album in 2012, however they have not released any announcement yet.[33]

Here and Now peaked at number two on the Billboard 200, selling 226,714 copies in its first week of release, with Christmas by Michael Bublé taking number one by a margin of only 419 copies.[34]

As part of promotion for the album, Nickelback was booked to perform at the halftime shows for both an NFL Thanksgiving Day game at Ford Field in Detroit on November 24, and the 99th Grey Cup in the band's hometown of Vancouver on November 27.[35] Also, the band appeared on Jimmy Kimmel and the performed When We Stand Together and Burn it to the ground.

However, the announcement that Nickelback would perform at halftime in Detroit was met with heavy opposition by fans—who believed that a Canadian band should not be playing a halftime show for an American football game relating to an American holiday, and that Detroit's musical heritage would be damaged by an association with the band. An online petition proposing that Nickelback be removed from the festivities at the game received over 55,000 signatures from fans.[36][37] Nickelback responded to this on a video on funny or Die as a joke.[38] Despite the objections, the band performed "When We Stand Together" during the halftime show, which resulted in a mixed but mostly positive response from the audience at Ford Field—a USA Today reporter noted however that the Detroit Lions' 7-point deficit going into halftime had received a more negative response than the performance.[39] On November 13, 2011 Nickelback preformed on the WWE Tribute to The Troops. Also, Nickelback donated $50,000 to BC Children's Hospital.[40] Nickelback, confirmed their Here And Now Tour (Nickelback Tour) on January 11 2012 they stated that they're playing with Seether and Bush (band). Since then, the band is only schedule to play on their North American leg, no word yet on the worldwide tour.[41] The band is nominated for 4 Juno Awards in 2012, also, the band is going to perform there.[42]

Reception

Review aggregator Metacritic reports that three of their six most recent studio albums since becoming a mainstream act, The Long Road, All the Right Reasons and Dark Horse, have scores of 62%, 41% and 49% respectively.[43][44][45]

The band has been criticised over their over-use of themes involving "strippers, sex, prostitutes, drugs, sex, drinking and sex",[46] for being derivative in the music they create, too often sticking to formula instead of innovating, and repetitive.[47][48][49]. In November 2011, users of the music-oriented dating site, Tastebuds.fm voted Nickelback as the number one musical turnoff, edging out Justin Bieber and Lady Gaga.[50]

Allmusic reviewer Liana Jones complimented Nickelback after their commercial breakthrough, Silver Side Up; "what gives the group an upper hand over its peers is intensity and raw passion... Nickelback ups the ante by offering realistic storytelling that listeners can relate to."[51] Following their 2008 album, Dark Horse, ChartAttack credited the band's success to knowing their target audience: "Chad Kroeger is a genius because he knows exactly what people want and precisely how far he can go. He turned out an extremely racy album that's loaded with songs about gettin' drunk and doin' it all without breaking any taboos, and with enough love and moral authority to grease its passage into the mainstream. Rejoice, North America. This is your world."[52] Billboard gave praise to the band: "The bulletproof Nickelback provides affordable fun that promises good returns in hard times."[53] Also various fellow musicians like Chris Martin of Coldplay[54] as well as R&B singer Timbaland[55] support the band.
