Users found this Silver Side Up review helpful about 9 months ago I took my son to see a outdoor concert on the beach here. not knowing a lot about nickelback, i had heard one song on the radio, i was pleasantly surprised. i'm 42, an old rock musician, my son 19, keeps me up to speed on all the new stuff. we saw some "bigger, more popular acts" and in my humble opinion, they blew the other bands away. the energy and passion with which they performed was several notches above anything i'd seen in a long time. needless to say i became an instant fan. i found their music well written, catchy, and laiden with great hooks. do yourself a favor, run, don't walk to see this act. a sure thing. peace out, jeff in miami beach ...

Pro Reviews: Silver Side Up
| EXPERT RATING: From AMG Reviews Industrialstrength rock roll is back with a vengeance on the earnest Silver Side Up by Nickelback. The band wastes no time in getting into its brand of dark, highoctane rock. The album opener "Never Again," about spousal abuse, thrusts out of the starting gate with rocketfueled intensity. Lead singer/guitarist/lyricist Chad Kroeger does not mince words in his portrayals of the darker sides of the human experience, and that is what Silver Side Up is essentially about. Nickelback's music is issueoriented on the domestic and personal front, and it's a refreshing change of pace in 2001's sea of angry rockers. Another familial subject is tackled on the pounding "Too Bad." The song describes an emotionally and physically absent father figure as seen through the eyes of a regretful adultchild looking back. The cut that broke the band to mainstream audiences is "How You Remind Me," a thundering, midtempo rock track marked by thick chords and a brooding tone. Kroeger's voice is filled with weariness as he well captures the selfdefeated feelings one experiences when being emotionally dissected by a lover. Such words as "'cause living with me must have damn near killed you" painfully zero in on the breakdown of the human spirit when it's badgered enough. Because, sadly, many have found themselves in this situation, the song connects with listeners. Coupled with a powerful and moody soundtrack, it's no wonder it took off on the radio. Grunge pays a visit on the set's closing number, "Good Times Gone." This wellcrafted song slowly builds in intensity from the intro's fingered guitar notes and understated vocals, to the gradual addition of instruments, to Kroeger's explosive vocal release at the song's end, which retreats back into softly strummed guitar notes. "Good Times Gone" is reminiscent of a Pearl Jam number, and this is no surprise; Silver Side Up was coproduced by Rick Parashar, who has worked with Seattle's finest. Nickelback's style is edgy aggressive rock peppered with a taste of grunge. The band can easily sit alongside Staind and 3 Doors Down, among other like acts. However, what Nickelback has in spades and what gives the group an upper hand over its peers is intensity and raw passion. Some bands finger the crap out of their guitars and relentlessly beat away at the drums, crafting songs that boast the intensity of an electric storm. Nickelback ups the ante by offering realistic storytelling that listeners can relate to. - Liana Jonas, All Music Guide |
