No Fixed Address is the eighth studio album from Canadian rock band Nickelback. It was released on November 14, 2014 in Australia via Republic Records.[4] The album release coincides with the 6 year anniversary of their sixth studio album, Dark Horse. The album is preceded by the lead single "Edge of a Revolution", which was released on August 18, 2014. This is the band's first release on Republic Records, after leaving long-time record label Roadrunner Records in 2013.

Background

During an interview with Chad Kroeger on CFOX-FM, Chad stated that the band planned to release their eighth studio album before the end of 2014. The lead rock single was also announced, "Edge of a Revolution", which was scheduled to be released sometime in August 2014. The track was described as a 'departure' for Nickelback and a political song. It was also announced that frequent collaborator Chris Lord-Alge will return to mix some of the tracks on the album. It was also announced the band had signed to Republic Records. Chad also hinted that a potential album title was No Fixed Address.[5]

On August 22, 2014, Nickelback announced via Twitter that the album will be titled No Fixed Address and they released the track listing along with it.[6]

The album title, No Fixed Address, was inspired by the fact that the album was recorded in many different places, and they never settled in a single spot.[5]

Lead singer Chad Kroeger said the album has some songs that are a significant departure from the band's typical musical style, including a song called "Got Me Runnin' Round" that features Flo Rida and has a horn section in it.[7]

It was premiered on German and UK radio stations on September 4, before being released in Australia on September 5, 2014.[9] It impacted US Hot AC radio stations on September 22, 2014 according to Republic Records' radio site.[10]
