You know how there are a lot of godawful rock bands on the radio today that all sort of blend together? The kind that have little or no value to the progression of rock music? The other day I was subjected to a particularly mindless track that I recognized from hearing time and time again in various places. Out of curiosity, I waited until the end to hear who was responsible for this musical atrocity. Turns out the band's name was "Nickelback."
Perhaps there is more to their name than people give them credit for. It's like a cheap knockoff of a silverback gorilla, with all the musical talent, but less creativity. If they were Sally Struther kids, I'd want my nickel back too.
