Re: Proof Nickelback sucks
 

yep, that's what i was going to say...

and who didn't already realize the similarities, its crazy! and i was one of the fools who thought they were innovative

Re: Proof Nickelback sucks
 

I know a good word to use here - cookiecutter. :)

Re: Proof Nickelback sucks
 

I agree that they all sound the same, but i can say i have 2 of their CD's .....and if by cookiecutter band you mean that all their songs sound the same its because they do. They do what works, they've done it for 2 CD's and its worked so far, So i dont see a problem with that,they're just trying to make money. And name some bands then that arn't cookiecutter bands, bands that each song is unique...

Re: Proof Nickelback sucks
 

I hate Nickleback. But those two songs combined actually sounds really awesome.

Re: Proof Nickelback sucks
 

Like we needed proof that Nickelback sucked, but thats funny as hell to me.

Re: Proof Nickelback sucks
 

name two bands? Thats too much of an easy task... but i'll name four bands which their songs sound way different and unique from each album.

Incubus from Enjoy Incubus to A Crow Left of the Murder their sound has changed drastically.

Coheed and Cambria's vocal and guitar arrangements are just sick and are always innovative.

Dead Poetic is another great band that just reflects diversity. All their songs are so different which is why i can listen to the same album more than once.

Emery one of my favorite new comers is also great.

All these bands change their sounds and songs, and don't use the same arrangement and chords as Nickelback did with those two songs. I have a better word for cookiecutter, and that's Amatuer.

Re: Proof Nickelback sucks
 

ooooooooo.......just so you understand, im not mad at this, but, all good bands have sounded remotely the same. Like the Beatles...they sound almost the same on every song. why? Because it worked the first time, so why fix something that isnt broken? Nickelback sold tons of copies with their second album, which is their current sound, but flopped with their first one: Curb. because the sound was too different, they re-released Curb, and yet again no one bought it because they didnt like the sound. So i dont blame them for going with what works, it makes them money and that was their goal.( im also defending them because they are from Vancouver, and because the radio station i listen to descovered them)

Re: Proof Nickelback sucks
 

I've got one for you.

The Beatles

Two good albums to compare are, Meet the Beatles and Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band.

Re: Proof Nickelback sucks
 

i think the important thing to remember here is that there is a big difference between having the same sound and having the songs/tunes/chords

Re: Proof Nickelback sucks
 

Thanks for pointing that out. The songs sound so alike that you would think they are on the same album. :)

RE: Re: Proof Nickelback sucks
 

Oh don't mention it.Tell me more.I am so glad you find this amusing, .

Re: Proof Nickelback sucks
