Music : All the Right Reasonsby: Nickelback Disc 1:
Editorial Review: Amazon.co.uk Review: Nickleback haven't made it this far by throwing their audience difficult curveballs, and All The Right Reasons--the Canadian quartet's fourth full-length--continues their run of uncomplicated, testosterone-soaked hard-rock albums without a wobble. Frontman Chad Kroeger still approaches the act of songcraft like he's chopping wood, grunting and sweating under the weight of gritted-teeth rock-outs like "Fight For All The Wrong Reasons" and "Someone That You're With". Critics have it in for Nickleback for many of the same reasons they have it in for Stereophonics--these songs promise emotional weight and hard-won truths, but have a tendency to mistake joylessness for passion. However, you can spot the hits a mile off. "Side Of A Bullet" is dedicated to deceased ex-Pantera man Dimebag Darrell, and even features an overdubbed axe solo from said guitarist, while "Photograph" sees Kroeger getting misty-eyed--almost whimsical--over an old school photo. Ultimately, though, it's more of the same. Which should suit the Nickleback faithful just fine. --Louis Pattison Average Rating:
![]() Rating: - Zero stars should be a special 'Nickelback option'Chad Kroeger is a song writing genious. Not, of course, for ANY of the right reasons, but because he has a truly remarkable ability to churn out some of the most pathetic songs ever recorded and still sell millions of records. For this he deserves credit - in the same way Hitler deserves credit for tricking Europe into allowing him to rise to power. It is not an exxaggeration in any way to describe Nickelback as the worst band ever. Chad Kroeger is the most listener-insultingly abysmal ... Read More Rating: - Absolutely Brilliant!What a album!!! Ignore any bad reviews and believe what the majority of reviewers have said, this CD is truely a hard rock masterpiece and with every track a gem, you'll find yourself paying it over and over again. "All the Right Reasons" is without a doubt one of Nickelback's best albums so far and worth a five star raiting for just "Rockstar" and "Photograph" alone. My other favourite songs here are "Next Contestant", "Side Of A Bullet", "If Everyone Cared" and "Far Away" but there isn't a track ...

I could pontificate on the sheer raw energy of 'All the Wrong Reasons' and 'Next Contender', the deservedly popular 'Rockstar' or the subtle harmonies and just damn good music in 'Photograph', but really, you should just listen to it yourself. Not only ... Read More Rating: - Soooooooo BadI cant believe how bad these guys are. I have NO respect for anyone who listens to this utter crap. It is soooooooooo bad. Listen to real music people. Nickelback have no talent, no writing skills, no redeeming features. THESE GUYS ARE SIMPLY TERRIBLE. THE MODERN EQUIVALENT TO THE OSMANS, ONLY NICKELBACK ARE PRETENDING TO BE A REAL BAND. THEY MAKE CRINGE. HORRIBLE. CRIME AGAINST MUSIC. Rating: - MMmmmmmm.....Cheesy!Oh dear oh dear oh dear. This is just simply awful. Nickelback have absolutley no redeeming features whatsoever. ALL of their songs have always sounded the same, and there is no change here. This is just painfully dull. A few years back I myself fell into the Nickelback trap and bought 'Silver Side Up' on the back of 'How You Remind Me'. I was quite clearly deranged!!! 'All The Right Reasons' is somehow even worse than that nonsense! This is rock by numbers with the worst lyrics you will ever hear. Surely ... Read More Browse for similar items by category:
