Nickelback



Nickelback is a rock band formed in Hanna, Alberta by Chad Kroeger, Mike Kroeger, Ryan Peake and then drummer Brandon Kroeger. The band's musical influences include grunge acts such as Soundgarden and Alice in Chains and heavy metal acts such as Metallica and Motörhead. Although the founders of the band hail from Hanna, Alberta, a small town east of Calgary, they are now based in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. The band's name originates from the nickel in change that band member Mike Kroeger often had to give customers in his previous job at Starbucks, and would frequently say "Here's your nickel back".
The band is signed to EMI at home and Roadrunner Records for the rest of the world.

I've got to admit, if they had only made Silver Side Up (I know it's not their first record), I'd probably rate them a little higher.

Probably no higher than 4, but...
