Nickelback: Band of the decade
 
at least according to Billboard

Also: Best Independent Album: Baha Men - Who Let The Dogs Out

Cool.

Nickelback is a strange band to be so popular, given that the dude's voice smells like a turd.

jerf 12.13.2009 02:30 PM

Nickelback is the worst band of the decade. They've successfully suckered everyone into buying the same song 25 times. Bunch of unoriginal, insipid bastards.

God, I hate Billboard now.

pbradley 12.13.2009 02:57 PM

Oh, politics and music.

Be sure to pick up a copy of Going Rogue while you're at it.

Show those liberal, elitist critics whatfor.

i'm more astounded at the baha men thing, tbh. mostly that someone out there actually bothered to remember them. sheeeeeeyit.

chicka 12.13.2009 04:41 PM

Sample lyrics: "Maybe in the parking lot / Better bring your friend along / Better rock together / Than just one at a time / S is for the simplety / E is for the ecstasy / X is just to mark the spot / 'Cause that's the one you really want."

I love how "The Beatles" are in their top 100 bands of the decade, and how Eagles, Slipknot, Snoop Dogg, Dashboard Confessional are in their top 20 independent albums. Classic stuff.

SuperCreep 12.13.2009 05:09 PM

"simplety"?

Derek 12.13.2009 05:18 PM

I like Snoop Dogg's Doggystyle... but that's INDEPENDENT?

atsonicpark 12.13.2009 05:19 PM

I can think of plenty of much, much worse bands than Nickelback though.

dionysusundone 12.13.2009 05:24 PM

They're going off of sales, I believe.

Oh, the Magik Markers! Okay, I agree.

it's obviously sales, billboard is a company that tracks sales.

Skuj 12.14.2009 01:57 AM

Every now and then (well, quite often actually) something hugely shyte comes along and sells billions.

I am embarrassed to be a Canadian. Why does Nickelback exist? How can something like this happen?

Really? I mean, even the Bay City Rollers are better than Nickelback.

atsonicpark 12.14.2009 08:12 AM

chrome noise tape 12.14.2009 09:53 AM

Oh, I thought you said Magic Numbers at first. I'm sorry, but on a sunny spring day, the Numbers will be playing in my car as I drive through the countryside with my windows down. They will be.

Rob Instigator 12.15.2009 10:09 AM

fuck I hate Nickleback
they suck so fucking much.
I hate the fucker's looks, I hate their slightly upset adult-contemporary brand of mope-rock. I fucking HATE THEM at the bowling alley.
I hate fuckers who like this shit, claiming the singer "has a really good voice."
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9zueKq3z3Sk

They are like an ice-house band who overachieved

one of my favorite travel experiences was "nickelbeck is from the canada? you are the one who is responsible for ched kruger? i should kick yr ass"

my least favorite travel experience "have you ever met nickelback? if you could get me an autograph from chad it would be the greatest moment of my life, he is the sexiest man alive"

Derek 12.15.2009 10:36 AM

NickelBECK? This is a cue for some awesome photoshopping guys!

Pax Americana 12.15.2009 10:46 AM

 


Band of the decade? Fuck that! Band of THE CENTURY if you ask me. I mean, shit... when Jesus is your lead singer? Well... you win.

Oh I know. I just wanted someone to photoshop Beck onto the Nickelback guy.

in all seriousness, that has to be the ugliest fucking band ever.

jerf 12.15.2009 10:02 PM

worst. decade. ever.

 

Skuj 12.15.2009 10:30 PM

Actually, I've been thinking: Bands like Nickelback are the reason that Sonic Youth exist. You see?

automatic bzooty 12.15.2009 10:50 PM

now i'm going to have nightmares about nickelbeck. thanks y'all.
