Nickelback has become one of a number of bands playing well produced, radio-friendly rock, such as also 3 Doors Down, Daughtry, Hinder etc.etc .. The heavy riffs there at one point or another as a witness of a past "Nickelback- era "still, but occur gradually in the background. Instead, use is made of other stylistic elements, something Southern, something funky, something electronic, musical new ways just trying to go, and that's perfectly fine that way. The die-hard fans of the post-grunge era was told that every musician happens to have the right to play the music to which he wants. Whether Avril Lavigne has an impact on, or not, but does not matter. Only once on the edge: John Lennon wrote under the influence of Yoko Ono and the best music of his life (but that's not really out here ...). Who it has no desire to, to give other CD's for sale, and the Hard'n Heavy riff-monster-market is constantly operated with new outputs. 1 or 2 star does not deserve this album, because it belongs to his style of the good quality.
