I wasn't be pissy, to each their own, but sweet fucking Jesus, Nickelback is fucking lame, douchey, frat boy rock. Like it if you want, But in my opinion they are fucking awful.
Btw Some recent metal bands I have heard that kick ass are.....
Whitechapel(growly death metal)
Behmoth(Black Metal from Poland, though they call their style "blackened" metal. Not sure how thats any different, but they kick ass.)
Warship(former members of From Autum To Ashes. From Long Island. Heavy ass slightly emo metal, but still badass.)
Some other recent purchases I have made are....
Hank Williams Sr.(gotta love "Jambalaya" and "So Lonesome I could Cry.")
Willie Nelson's greatest hits.(Pancho and Lefty is a badass song.)
Rammstein-Rosenrot(Crazy fucking germans even do a song in spanish in this one. "Te quiera puta.")
