What you call a band that you hear on the radio but you aren't sure who they are, but they sound like every other band. So you just call them "Nickelback"
Guy 1: who sings that one "chasing cars" song?
Guy 2: I think thats nickelback, dude
Guy 1: *turns on radio*

Radio: "Can you take me HIGHER?"

Guy 2: Dammit, not another nickelback song!

When something is so bad, that even if it only cost a nickle, you'd still want it back...
So I saw that movie tonight... talk about a nickelback movie.

See overrated, fraud, untalented. A fake ass excuse for a so called "Post Grunge" band. But in reality they're not grunge. They're a subgenre of rock known as "Nu-Metal". Usually Loved by pre-teens, they are easily called the "greatest rock band ever", but anyone with a brain and passion for music will know that it's crap. If anyone has actually gone through every song that Nickelback has produced, you'd notice that most of the song melodies in Nickelback's songs sound exactly identical to one another. This PROVES that Nickelback obviously have no talent. And are frauds.
Nickelback are one of the worst bands to ever exist.

A terrible band from Alberta, Canada, who did a good job in revolutionizing the already-crappy music scene that exists in this world today. Nickelback invented a new level of SHIT.
Chad Kroeger: Look at this photograph. Every time I do it makes me laugh.

DE: Look at this crappy band, I want to fling shit at them.

DS: Oh yeah! Nickelback bites the big one!

DE: Pwned!

A band whose music is the auditory form of swallowing Satan's semen. Calling this band's music bland and completely mindless would be a compliment. They are consumer artists who lack creativity, but appeal to a shallow vapid audience with lyrics that make them sound "tough" and "racy". Just another neutered capitalist scumbag band. They are the antithesis of alternative music because nothing is alternative about them; they are mainstream garbage and should have choked on their umbilical cords
