Advantages: Good general audience spread the album is aimed at

Disadvantages: Too Main stream, not much for classic Nickelback Fans

Nickelback is turning into one of the biggest upcoming cult classic bands there has ever been the in the rock industry. Due to their hit new single "Rockstar" it appears the band has taken a new path of "mainstream infection" and based more of the songs on their new album around the same basis Rockstar were.

There is still a variety of songs on the album ranging from hit songs such as "Gotta be somebody" to the heavier beats of "Burn it to the ground", although speaking of heavy songs the album seems to lack the metal themes the band grew on with songs such as "Side of a bullet" which truly were metal songs. However the album is still classed as Hard Rock and metal even though it clearly isn't.

Apart from these bad points it still has some upsides and perks such as the music still being the same toe tapping tunes you know and love, it still has the tunes that just get you pumped for any occasion and is just great to listen to in a relaxed mood. It appears the band really have opened their wings to a wider audience, however it doesn't ring as amazing for those classic fans such as myself.

Don't get me wrong it's a great album but comparing it to its previous album releases it just can't compete. In conclusion it is worth buying but don't expect it appearing in your top 25 played anytime soon.

Summary: In conclusion it is worth buying but don't expect it appearing in your top 25 played anytime soon.
