5 out of 5 stars Nickelback remains the greatest band in existance.   November 22, 2008
I've been a die hard Nickelback fan since I saw them on MTV a few years back, and have been amazed by how great their musical career is progressing. I remember the day i saw the video for "How You Remind Me", and I instantly fell in love with this band. Chad has one of the greatest vocals in the history of hard rock;and his guitar skills prove that he's God in comparison to over rated guitarist of the past.

This CD demonstrates their ability to make another superb album, regardless of what negative critics say. 5 stars is not enough for this band or album.



5 out of 5 stars excellent followup   November 22, 2008

to their previous effort, All The Right Reasons. This time around the guys in Nickelback bring even more energy this time around. From the start to finish each song ramps up the music and takes the fans both old and new on a well deserved musical ride.

"Something in Your Mouth" starts off the new effort and has much going for it. By way of Chad's vocals and playing of the rest of the band. It's a fast, furious fun song that should be released as the next single off the album.

"Gotta Be Somebody"
"I'd Come For You"
"Next Go Round"
"Just To Get High" feels like it could be an extension of "Rockstar" (just with some of the lyrics from this song) off "All The Right Reasons"

These are just a few of the songs that should be relistened to and ones that should be getting released as future singles of the album. This album is a bit more upbeat than the last not comparing the two because they are different. "Dark Horse" is the album that should have fans off the fence and into the Nickelback area of things as it's fun to listen to more than just once and should be a favorite for sometime to come. Excellent effort all around by the guys.



5 out of 5 stars Powerful   November 21, 2008

I am not the biggest Nickel Fan, have all their albums but to be honest do not hear the entire album, but, when I got Dark Horse I let it play during the whole Internet surfing session and let me say that i Liked all of the song on this one. Most are so powerful and deep, that it really made me repeat it for at least 4 time last night. Best songs are : Something in your mouth, Gotta be somebody, I'd Come For you, I today was... Burn it to... and the best of all as a ballad, IMHO, For me, and deep slow songs fans, Never gonna be alone.


5 out of 5 stars Just as good as All The Right Reasons maybe even better   November 20, 2008

All The Right Reasons will probably be Nickelbacks best album, but this is a close second. The only thing I don't like about this album is the name and album cover, couldn't they come up with something more creative? I loved the album cover and name for All The Right Reasons since day one and still do and I think its there best cover. The cover art here just seems bland and boring but its not about the cover its about the music and the music is the still the same old Niceklback we have grown to love. Also to the people who complain that Nickelback write the same album and same songs over and again there not the only band that does that AC/DC has made a 35+ career doing that and they still continue to put out great albums so whats wrong with that? Although I wish Nickelback would branch out a little bit and try something new but I've grown to accept it. I'm a long time Nickelback fan ever since I heard Leader of Men on the radio I knew this band had potential and I was right it seems they get better with each CD. Dark Horse is one of those albums that will grow on you which was the case for me. I didn't like it at first but the next go round I was hooked. I can't name the best songs on this album because they are all good and single-worthy which is why I gave the album 5 stars if I had to say a song I didn't like it would Burn it to the Ground I don't know why I just don't like this song. So for all who loved All The Right Reasons theres no reason why you won't love this album and be sure to catch them on there 2009 North America tour they are great band live.


1 out of 5 stars Where is the music?   November 20, 2008

The first two albums were great. So I went into this one expecting great things. Wow was I let down. The best part about the cd is the 2 seconds of silence in between each track. If you download this album illegally then send them a bill for the price of the CD-R. I was expecting another outstanding album from them but they didn't deliver.
