The hideous singer of the equally hideous band
Nickelback Often referred to in
Australia by radio station Triple M as the paddlepop lion, a popular ice cream icon due to his "post grunge" grotesqueness. Also bears uncanny resemblence to Scott Stapp of Creed, both physically and musically. Composes "hit" songs all of which seem to centre around a faux existential protagonist (himself) wallowing in sentimentality after heartbreak. Recently called out for his recycling of the bland "You remind me" for new single "Photograph", the two having the exact same guitar riffs and "melodies", but with
Nickelback this is par for the course. For some bizzare reason has sold approximately
20 million records worlwide 13.5 million in the usa alone, i blame this on the mediocrity of
mtv and america in general. This man is a shame to the wonderful
Canadian music industry and in fact Canada itself. Was owned whilst performing at a
metal festival in Portugal when a corageous audience member threw rocks at him, after which he stormed offstage. Charged in September 06 with drunk driving, we have yet to hear another agonising musical memoir documenting this travesty but undoubtedly in will go double platinum upon its release.
jack: "Is that Scott Stapp?"
sally: "nooo it's Chad Kroeger"
harry: "but it looks
like the Paddlepop lion!"
I feel
like drowning my existentialist sorrows in burboun, remedial guitar riffs and annoying raspy vocals-I've been Chad Kroegered.
