Nickelback Biography |
 |
|
|
If anyone thought mainstream rock went out of style, apparently they failed to hear Nickelback , the Canadian quartet that took the world by storm in 2002 with the omnipresent anthem, "How You Remind Me."
Although it may have seemed that Nickelback was an overnight success, nothing could be further from the truth. The band, fronted by singer/guitarist Chad Kroeger and his bass-playing brother, Mike, started in the mid-'90s as a cover band in the small town of Hanna, Alberta. By 1996, the band relocated to Vancouver and Kroeger had begun writing his own songs. Once in the big city, the band—which also includes drummer Ryan Vikedal and guitarist Ryan Peake—hit the recording studio with a vengeance. In that year alone Nickelback churned out the Hesher EP and its debut long-player, Curb.
Following years of road work, the band re-emerged in 2000 with The State , which garnered airplay in their native Canada, partially due to Canadian content laws that require broadcasters to play a certain amount of homegrown recordings. With the band's star rising due to frequent touring and airplay seeping into the U.S., The State was picked up for release in America, where it proved to be a modest success.
