Why does everybody hate Nickelback?

They're after my time, and as far as I know I've only ever heard one of their songs. Which is frankly kind of catchy.

But comparing any disliked band to Nickelback seems to be the ultimate musical insult, and any time they are mentioned people seem to pile on like the crowd that wanted to burn the witch in Holy Grail.

What did they do? Does everybody hate their music that much? Are they dicks to their fans?

I need somebody not musically stuck in the decade between '75 and '85 to enlighten me.

Go ahead, blast away...
Their earliest stuff is actually not bad. They were a NWOBHM band before they were a hair band, ironically.

Because they’re fun, cheesy, over the top, and epic. Things Nickelback isn’t.

I also have a lot of modern hip hop as well as the stuff from the 90's and early 2K.

just looking over my spotify i have a dubstep playlist as well as an Epic Battle Music playlist.

Suffice to say, my Spotify Discover Weekly doesn't know wtf to do with me.
I can see clearly all of Detoxing's guests at his house as his music goes from Blackstreet to Kendrick Lamar......to Texas Hippie Coalition. The collective "WTF" would be amazing.

From Pyromania back in their album history is pretty good stuff, pretty required listening. Pretty heavy, too, considering the era.

Hysteria was smack dab in the middle of my senior year of high school, so of course that album got memorized by everyone. Anything past Hysteria is a crapshoot and not worth serious time, imo.

Liking Disco more than grunge might be the dumbest thing you've ever said on here.........and you've said a lot.

And Def Leppard just might be the shittiest band to ever come out of that era of music. They're just trash.
Well, since I never said I liked either, but rather hated both, it could be argued that your misrepresentation of my statement is the dumbest thing you've ever said. But then again, it's got a lot of competition, doesn't it?

I don't care if you like grunge, or rap, or hip-hop, or whatever other shit passes as music these days. I don't. Musical taste is completely subjective. There are millions of people out there who do like Def Leppard. I couldn't care less that you aren't one of them. I'd wager that the members of Def Leppard don't give a shit, either.

Loved their first two albums in high school and saw them on the "High 'n' Dry" tour (it was a kickass show). Once Pyromania hit, though, that was it. Dropped them like a hot rock. That was their left turn into hair metal.

This is pretty damned good for a group of like 17 year olds to come out with pre 1980 -

I guess Def Leppard is the Nickelback of the 80s.

Speaking of Nickelback - and not to derail the thread - but I'm looking for a "costume" so to speak that makes me look as dumb as possible. Just to most people perceive me from being of extremely below average intelligence. Yes I realize I'm already stupid - but I need to really play it up.

It all starts with a Nickelback T-Shirt. I don't know what else. What kind of hat can I sport or any other garb? No political stuff.
