backspacer isn't my fav PJ album, but it's not bad. I liked it quite a bit when it initially came out. It has some very good songs that I hope remain in the live rotation. Nickleback is one of the worst bands of all time. I'd rather listen to a dog fart while someone scratches a chalkboard than listen to nickleback. This is really the worst poll I've ever seen.
When you're done collecting enough data from votes, please make a graph at which we can look, as per Nickelback's singer's (don't know his name, but he looks like Dax Shepherd) request.
^^^ His name is Chad something - he married that ughhh Canadian uggghhhh punk hmmm oh yeah Avril Lavigne - the running joke was we all hoped when they got married she'd be the wife to break up the band.
Oh please let it rain today.

Backspacer
“Do not postpone happiness”

You would rather listen to 25 nickelback songs instead of hearing unthought known?
yep. but i never made it as a wise man...
see what i did.
Hahahanahahaha...

Wow someone has a hate-on for backspacer. I find I really dig about half of modern PJ albums, find a few songs ok, and then the last bunch I'm not super big on. That's not bad. There's 0 songs on any recent nickelback album worth listening too (I hate to say it but I did did their first album Curb back in the day, but that was long before they put out anything commercial enough to get famous).
I had Curb, too - signed! I saw them in-store at Abbotsford's A&B Sound (R.I.P.) for free when I was 14 or 15. So while I voted Nickelback, my caveat is that it has to be pre-US/INT'L breakthrough Nickelback. It was fine for its time.
"What can you expect when you're on top? You know? It's like Napoleon. When he was the king, you know, people were just constantly trying to conquer him, you know, in the Roman Empire. So, it's history repeating itself all over again."
Backspacer has 11 songs. So, if you had to sit and listen to 11 songs uninterrupted and your choices are 11 Nickelback songs or Backspacer what do you choose?
