Summary: you want to listen to musical tales of domestic violence listen to korn
Comment: People that say that this album is dark really doesn't know what they are talking about. I do not hate or feel contempt for any of the people that like this band or album. They obviously just aren't that exposed to much music. There was a time once when I thought Papa Roach was all that, then my friend gave me about 20 cd's full of Pantera, Korn, Mudvayne, A Perfect Circle, and Tool, and I realized how talentless and immature Papa Roach was. The people who like or listen to this album just need to do the same. Its all right guys, you can do it, spread your wings and leave this immature crap behind......
Overall rating: 0/100
DEFINITELY not recommended

Summary: bad music no likee
Comment: I gotta tell ya, I'm not a fan of The Nickelback. The first time I heard that song "How You Remind Me" I thought it was some kind of joke. Well, if it was a joke, it's now five years later and I still don't get it. Can you please explain to me why anyone would want to hear some guy with really bad hair blather on about some nonsense, then say "Yeah!" like 50 million times?
To borrow a line from Billy Madison, "I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul."

Summary: Overrated - Inconsistent and formulaic! 2.5 stars.
Comment: I remember when I bought this album when I was 21. I was so excited to get this at the time. I liked most of the songs and some were so so or sucked. I used to listen to this album pretty often, but I realized that these guys are really not that good. They lack a front man with any range, Chad writes elementary insipid lyrics, and they stick to the same formula. Silver Side Up is not a bad album by any means, but is it not all that great either. If you are going to buy a Nickelback album, get The State and maybe Curb. Avoid Silver Side Up and the rest that come after unless you are a die hard fan. If you are still a fan of Nickelback, it is time to see the light and do away with the mediocre formulaic outfits of the current era.

Following Staind's footsteps, Nickelback make the personal public and vent a history of frustration and resentment to melodic hard rock. The band's second album, Silver Side Up, starts with "Never Again," an angry tirade against domestic violence that sheds light on the issue without too much sap or sentiment. The album's catchy radio hit "How You Remind Me" and the song "Woke Up This Morning" tell of rotting relationships, while other tracks touch on damaged hope and lost dreams. The post-grunge, alt-metal combo backing these songs packs as strong a punch as the lyrical material, going hard with lots of hooks. The additional slide guitar on "Hangnail" and sludgy, alt-metal riffs on "Hollywood," "Money Bought," and "Where Do I Hide" add a little meat to the alt-rock bones on Silver, elevating Nickelback above the heap of copycat rockers clogging the airwaves. --Jennifer Maerz
