On Dark Horse, "Mutt" Lange lightens Nickelback's dreary post-grunge plod, applying guitar shimmer to prom ballads and detonating big beats under frat-party shouts and raplike vocal parts.

Nickelback is one of the greatest bands of all time and this album is long overdue. Based on listening to their single "Gotta Be Somebody" on the radio, their whole album is sure to be a big hit. They are a versitile band; some of their songs are fun, some are serious, and some are profound. They write songs with intelligence and meaning. And to the "Star Wars-Harry Potter" fan who wrote that Nickelback is Nickelweak, you are oviously living in a fantasy world, who only reads fantasy books, and who probably lives alone with 15 cats as his only freinds. Good luck finding your way back to the real world.

I have loved Nickelback from the very beginning. They have not had one album which I have not absolutely loved.<BR/>This one, however, was different.<BR/>I could go on and on about the disgusting, raunchy lyrics, and overall reasons to be completely replused by this album.<BR/>But I won't, because, apparently, all the other reviewers love it.<BR/>And I don't want to hear, "oh, you're not a real Nickelback fan!" <BR/>Heck yes, I am. I've been to two concerts in the past year.<BR/><BR/>However, Chad has made the decesion to make public details about his love life, but kept his previously amazing lyrics writing abilities to himself.<BR/><BR/>This is a complete dissapointment after waiting over three months for the alubm.<BR/><BR/>~A.

Has an incredible driving beat and all around fun music. With a couple of touching tunes that inspire and motivate. Great music to workout to because you can't sit still.

Report this reviewThank you, this review has been flagged.I bought this CD for a couple of hits on there and ended up loving every song on it. It inspired me to dig up the Nickelback CD I have and order another one to continue the collection. The songs are well written and the beat gets one going. Give it a try!

I have all of Nickleback's CDs and this one tops them all for me. I enjoy listening to this CD over and over again. They keep getting better and better with their music.
Was this review helpful? Yes NoThank you for your feedback. Report this reviewThank you, this review has been flagged.When I heard Nickelback's newest hit "Gotta Be Somebody" I knew they were back. I really liked the pop-rock feel of that song. I decided to get their latest album because of that great song. It's actually pretty good. Although I wouldn't call it "perfect" this is definately Nickelback's best album. I have been a fan of the band for a few years now and they seem to get better and better with each album. If you're a fan of their radio hits in past and right now then check out thier latest album. The best song on it is still "Gotta Be Somebody."

I have this CD in my car and i listen to it over and over again. It never bores me. I especially like it because its different from the typical Nickelback songs. This is no doubt the best band, they are amazing live i saw them in concert last night, and Chad is such a great/funny guy.
this is my favorite album by far. The lyrics to the new songs are awesome.
And for all of you people who are disgusted by the lyrics about sex and drinking. relax, its just a freaking song. My personal favorites are S.E.X. and This Afternoon.
Buy this CD well worth the money!!!!
I really don't care what anyone else says, I LOVE this album, I've been waiting for so long for their new songs. I am mad that I have not yet been to a concert, but one day I will make it! I love the raunchy lyrics and the different sound. Keep rockin'!

Nickelback are not known for their insight, but Chad Kroeger's caterwauling claim that "we got no class, no taste" on "Burn It to the Ground," is a slice of perceptive, precise self-examination. Nickelback are a gnarled, vulgar band reveling in their ignorance of the very notion of taste, knocking out knuckle-dragging riffs that seem rarefied in comparison to their thick, boneheaded words. Of the two, the music is far less offensive, particularly on Dark Horse, where they work with the legendary producer Robert "Mutt" Lange, who pumps up muscle on Nickelback's heaviest rockers and adding some color to their power ballads, suggesting some heretofore verboten ...
