Hey ay, I want to be a money mad pirate, yayay i want to rob idiots! - By: Mr. Richard J. Howells, 28 Aug 2008 
Oh no i'min a state of high dudgeon, despair & dysphoria as this grandiose drivel cuts through my ear drums. Its quite possible that this is the most disturbing example of music as commerce i have ever heard. Chad Kroeger is an avaricious money mad pirate who specialisesin tawdry, inept riffs & stultifying hooks that serve no purpose other than to extort money out of jocks & other asinine consumers. If you want truly profound, intuitive songwritng then avoid the music of this banal incubus while you still have the ability to feel!
A Superb Rock Masterpiece!! - By: Jake M, 07 Aug 2008 
"Silver Side Up" was the first Nickelback album that I ever bought & the one that turned me into a huge fan.
I can't recommened it enough, every song on the CD is a gem & you'll find yourself playing it again & again. A must have album for all rock fans!
Impressive! - By: alextorres, 01 Feb 2008 
"Silver Side Up" is an impressive rock album full of powerful, heavyish but very catchy rock songs. Melody & power are not always something that are captured together on rock albums but Nickelback have managed it on this to great effect. You are launched into this wonderful world with the gorgeous opening track "Never Again" & the album just does not let up, delivering one storming song after another. The combination of pace, power & enjoymentin a studio album is rare - extremely impressive!!
Decent but not their best - By: Sam Anders, 24 Nov 2007 
If you're new to Nickelback then odds are that the reason you're checking out this album is the second track single 'How You Remind Me'. It's a cool song but the album isn't all that great & if you want to hear more of their better stuff you're probably better off getting 'All The Right Reasons', it's longer & much better overall.
Having said that 'Silver Side Up' is still a nice little album & established fans should definitely add it to their collections, there's some very good tracks here but it's all just not as tight as some of their other albums.
Not the best introduction or the best album, but still pretty cool.
Great Album !!!! - By: Gary Barnes, 04 Nov 2007 
One of the best introductions to an album, ever. A rumbling bass line that blows you away. Then 'how you remind me' makes it just an individual & personal effort by Nickelback to stun everyone, & send their song straight to number 1, which happened.
Being a fan, I love Nickelback, so I love the album, I would love to see a new addition to the collectionin the form of an unplugged concert, which would definitely gives these retro songs the edge that they need for some people to like them.
