4.0 out of 5 stars A Solid Second Album, March 17, 2002

By

This review is from: Silver Side Up (Audio CD)

With a huge success from "How You remind Me," Nickelback have shot from the west coast of Canada to being a big name in music today. Here's the track breakdown for "Silver side Up":

1. Never Again: A song about domestic violence. This is the most pissed off I've ever heard these guys. 9/10

2. How You Remind Me: The single that launched them to the top of the charts. Need I say more? 10/10

3. Woke up this morning: Love the guitar solo here. Fairly good rock song. 9/10

4. Too Bad: The next single. A bit angrier than How You Remind Me, but still as catchy. 10/10

5. Just For: Really Hard, and doesn't that opening guitar sound kinda like "Smells Like Teen Spirit"? 8/10

6. Hollywood: Nothing really stands out here, I usually skip this. 6/10.

7. Money Bought: Some great lines in this one. 8/10

8. Where Do I Hide: My personal fave. Harder than the singles, but Nickelback sounds better like this. 10/10

9. Hangnail: My second fave on the CD, for all the same reasons as the first. 10/10

10. Good Times Gone: A switch to slow rock , but still as good as the rest of the songs. This features Ian Thornley, the lead singer of Big Wreck, on guitar. 9/10

In general, if you buy this CD for "How You Remind Me", you may be in for a bit of a surprise. However, if you can stand harder music, this is a good album.

4.0 out of 5 stars First for me, but definitely not the last, August 21, 2002

I am a new Nickelback listener so I cannot tell you about their development as a band up to this point, but I can tell you that this CD is a terrific CD and has really led them to be listened to by a larger audience. I am sure that most people who listen to contemporary music and even those who don't have heard their sond How You Remind Me and Too Bad. These are two great songs, definitely enough reason to buy this CD. But there are many other good songs on it also such as harder ones like When I Woke Up This Morning and Nevermind. Admittedly they're are a seemingly extraneous songs, but overall the CD is a teriffic CD.

5.0 out of 5 stars An awesome cd, October 1, 2001

I have to agree with anothe reiewer that said after the first listen they weren't impressed,but upon later listenings they were. I am also in that same category. I wasn't too impressed with 'The State'. It had some good songs on it,but began after a while to seem repetitve. In fact the first time I hear 'How You Remind Me' I thought it was some song on 'The State' that i hadn't heard. When I heard Nickelback was coming out with another cd I figured I'd get it for 'How You Remind Me' the same way I got 'The State' for 'Leader of Man'. Upon my first listening of the cd I wasn't too impressed,but now after hearing the album numerous times I can say that it is an awesome cd. Not one to be missed.
