Summary: I don't get it
Comment: I'm sorry, but this just doesn't sound so great to me. If you like grunge, try Pearl Jam or Nirvana -- they're so much more original and... convincing. Sometimes Nickleback sounds like they're trying way too hard (or not hard enough?). Seriously this is kid's stuff, man. Don't say I didn't warn you.

Summary: A solid first for the canadian quartet Nickelback
Comment: I'll be the first to say that a band's old material usually isn't that great. However, Nickelback has surprised yet again with a very solid freshman debut. Remixed, Remastered and Reissued as a hold over record in 2002, Curb is packed with the crunchy, post-grunge anthems of small town woe you've come to expect from The State and Silver Side Up. However, as with most nickelback albums, there were a couple songs they could have left out (window shopper and an under-produced version of Just for), but overall, Curb is well worth your money. I still find myself throwing it on from time to time, and I've had it for almost a year!

Summary: A great beginning for Nickelback
Comment: This album was the band's introduction to the big time and they did not disappoint with their tracks of Pusher, Where? and Sea Groove becoming popular listening songs on radio station and most requested songs in early 2002 when this CD was in fact released. 'Curb' is a unique beginning for Nickelback where the fan/listener first met the integral sound and rythmns of this group. Just For and I Don't Have are also good songs.
Give this album a chance, like me it takes a few goes on the stereo before this album truly blends in with the listener.

Summary: A little Bland...
Comment: I hated grunge and as an older music fan I hated any new music because there seemed to be no originality at all in music, but hey there still isn't and that ain't good nor bad. It seems as if Nickleback has one thing on their side and that is a loyal fan base. How many bands in this era of music have actually released four albums and are still well liked? Not many. Anyways, Curb is an album that sounds like four hundred other bands but lyrically they are miles above anyone else. If given a choice of actually naming newer bands that I respect I would pick Disturbed and Nickleback on lyrical content only. This cd is far better than the mess of Silver side up which was horribly written and generic in its musical mediocrity. Chad's voice stands out well, and songs like the title track and my personal favorite Where bristle with an energy that sadly seems lacking in any other new release from the millions of crappy nu-metal bands that seem destined to release one album and fade into obscurity. I urge everyone to pick this up and to all of those nu metal bashing hate mongers relax and buy something from the eighties or seventies and learn to accept that musical integrity is a thing of the past and just enjoy the products that the labels sell us. It was a hard lesson for me to learn but I'm okay with it.
