Zero stars should be a special 'Nickelback option' - By: Your horse, 16 Aug 2008 
Chad Kroeger is a song writing genious. Not, of course, for ANY of the right reasons, but because he has a truly remarkable ability to churn out some of the most pathetic songs ever recorded & still sell millions of records. For this he deserves credit -in the same way Hitler deserves credit for tricking Europe into allowing him to rise to power.
It is not an exxaggerationin any way to describe Nickelback as the worst band ever. Chad Kroeger is the most listener-insultingly abysmal lyricist that I have ever heard. Before you pre-pubescent fans jump to his defence, I have evidence,in the form of some lines from the album:
"She'd be pissed if she could see the parts of you that I've been kissing"
"It's just a little hard to leave/When you're going down on me"
Now, anyone Nickelback fans with any decency (ridiculous idea, I know) will be too embarrased to disagree with this. Don't worry though, kids - by your 12th birthday you'll have got over this band. It's easy, really. Just listen to more music. Because the reality is this: Nickelback are the perfect band for people who don't like music.
Absolutely Brilliant! - By: Jake M, 07 Aug 2008 
What a album!!! Ignore any bad reviews & believe what the majority of reviewers have said, this CD is truely a hard rock masterpiece & with every track a gem, you'll find yourself paying it over & over again.
"All the Right Reasons" is without a doubt one of Nickelback's best albums so far & worth a five star raiting for just "Rockstar" & "Photograph" alone. My other favourite songs here are "Next Contestant", "Side Of A Bullet", "If Everyone Cared" & "Far Away" but there isn't a track on here that I dislike, it's perfect!
Highly recommened!!
Rock Lives .... and is thriving. - By: C. Cubbin, 14 Jul 2008 For those who, like me, grew up with the likes of Queen, Rainbow, Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden, Led Zeppelin, it is indescribably good to hear rock that stands up with the best there has been & is able to look it squarein the eye.
I could pontificate on the sheer raw energy of 'All the Wrong Reasons' & 'Next Contender', the deservedly popular 'Rockstar' or the subtle harmonies & just damn good musicin 'Photograph', but really, you should just listen to it yourself. Not only is this great old-fashioned rock with good vocalsin harmonic depth, it is beautifully balanced as an album between anthems, thrashy head-bangers & non-slushy ballads. To quote an oft-used phrase, it is all killer & no filler, any one of the tracks could be nailed into the Top-Ten.
I like this album ... a lot ... it's definitely one of the favourites & considering the company it keepsin my CD collection next to the affore-mentioned bands that is no mean achievement. This is the first Nickelback album I have heard, it most certainly won't be the last.
Soooooooo Bad - By: Ms. Harriet L. Fisher, 12 Jul 2008 I cant believe how bad these guys are. I have NO respect for anyone who listens to this utter crap. It is soooooooooo bad. Listen to real music people. Nickelback have no talent, no writing skills, no redeeming features. THESE GUYS ARE SIMPLY TERRIBLE. THE MODERN EQUIVALENT TO THE OSMANS, ONLY NICKELBACK ARE PRETENDING TO BE A REAL BAND. THEY MAKE CRINGE. HORRIBLE. CRIME AGAINST MUSIC.
MMmmmmmm.....Cheesy! - By: Graham Richardson, 10 Jul 2008 Oh dear oh dear oh dear. This is just simply awful. Nickelback have absolutley no redeeming features whatsoever. ALL of their songs have always sounded the same, & there is no change here. This is just painfully dull. A few years back I myself fell into the Nickelback trap & bought 'Silver Side Up' on the back of 'How You Remind Me'. I was quite clearly deranged!!! 'All The Right Reasons' is somehow even worse than that nonsense! This is rock by numbers with the worst lyrics you will ever hear. Surely people can't take this bile seriously. The album ends up sounding like one very very very very long continuous plod. The same chords, the same sound, the same everything. The album goes nowhere & does nothing. It gives the listener nothing but a migraine & a feeling of nausea. Special mention for the awful 'Rockstar' which makes me cringe, & if I never hear it again it will be far too soon. Also 'Photograph' is just plain hilarious with it's mind numbing lyrics, "Look at this photograph, Everytime I do it makes me laugh, How did our eyes get so red, And what the hell is on Joey's head". Eh??????? It's hardly inspired is it. By the time you get to 'If Everyone Cared' you realise that you really don't! Nickelback are just embarrassing. Thankfully I didn't buy this tripe, I just had the misfortune to hear it. If you like music & have just one ounce of taste then avoid this at all costs!!!!
