Why all the hate on Nickelback?

I personally like the band's music. But it seems like a lot of people seem to hate these guys for no legitamite reason. Care to enlighten me?

I've never heard of them. But I can already tell that I hate them.

theyre pretty kwwwwwl tbh :D

Because their music is incredibly dull and the lyrics are horribly written.

A poor example of a legitimate reason

Most of their songs sound EXACTLY the same. I don't hate them, and I actually like about 5 or 6 of their songs.DarkPrinceXC

If you like one, shouldn't you like the rest? If they all sound the same, that is.

The lead singers head is apparently a magnet for rocks

Because they are most terrible....

And look at my avatar. I'm obviously an expert on the matter.

Haha, my friend and I were just having a discussion about this.

Never marry as a rich man, never marry as a poor man stealing.

I don't hate the band, just their music.

Bland,repetative music. Uninspired, misogynistic vocals done by a guy who can't sing AT ALL. There music is played all over the airwaves, pretty much making radio obsolete for anyone who actually appreciates music.

It's because they don't like their music, but everyone has different tastes.

From urban-dictionary:

Radio Rock 37 up, 12 down

Bands like Nickelback, Staind, Seether, Shinedown, Papa Roach, Avenged Sevenfold, all the overplayed rock music on the radio and MTV. IT ALL SOUNDS EXACTLY THE SAME!!! There is nothing unique about them; the music, the lyrics, every song and every band sound alike. And for some unknown reason, people actually like it. *******...

radio rock sucks. it's extremely rare when a mainstream band is actually good.

Another excerpt from urban-dictionary:

nickelback 719 up, 305 down

the act of willfully allowing one's ears to bleed.

I was Nickelbacking so the school nurse sent me home early.

/thread on the first reponse. Nice.

I think they are a great band and all but they need to stop making dirty songs. I liked the band when they made songs about life. Not the dirty songs.

i always thought that Nickleback was a word we used to describe terrible music. I never thought somebody actually had a band by that name!

They really sound like some computer generated music just homogenized a bunch of music and spit them out.

I don't HATE them, but I can see why people don't like them.

They sound like generic rock. "I want to be a rock star" is the biggest example I can think of.

Generic garbage.

Nickleback killed my entire family and burned my village to the ground. They must pay!

I don't like them because I think they sound horrible.

I like a lot of their songs, and I LOVE Far Away.

Well, Nickelback is one of those suckish bands that you don't admit that you like, but you do like. And that makes you feel guilty, so you tell everyone you hate them. Not me, thought, I have another suckish band I secretly like - Theory of a Deadman. But, they sound almost identical to Nickelback, so...

So you have another shameful band you like. Everyone can have only one..

I don't hate them personally, but their music is garbage and everything else everyone already said. Instrumentally, vocally, lyrically, they are weak and uninspired. When so many great bands, artists and music in the world, you can tell the difference in what sounds great and what doesn't. It's not hard to figure out really.

I don´t know,perhaps its because the lead singer is ugly.

Hate? :?, here in the UK they are adored, I personally like them, I like a lot of their songs.69ANT69

Ok, first I here the UK tolerates sex more than violence, and now this? The UK sounds like an ideal place to live. XD
