CD Reviews
Rock music is dead.

"I can't listen to mainstream rock anymore and these guys are to blame. Everything sounds the same - I don't know if these guys are trying to sound like everyone else, or if everyone else is trying to sound like them. Either way, it just makes me want to throw my radio out the window and learn to play music myself. Anyone with any musical aptitude can write and perform better than this drivel."

A Best Kept Secret

"I, as I imagine many people, thought that Nickelback's first album was Silver Side Up. Finding out that they had 2 albums before it (this one, The State, and another titled Curb) was an amazing discovery. I didn't really know what to expect but I was pleasently surprised listening to this the first time. Though, if you listen to all of the bands work its easy to see how they have evolved over the years, this album is an interesting look at their earlier years and it includes a lot of great tracks."

""The State" has some great work by Nickelback. "Leader of Men" is a great song.
