 (37 Customer Reviews)
"How You Remind Me" was nominated for the 2003 Grammy Awards for Record Of The Year.
Nickelback are arguably the preeminent bastard children of '90s hard rock. On the Canadian band's sophomore effort, the songs will surely appeal to heavy rockers who were introduced to Metallica as shorthaired rock heroes. Simple, crunchy chord progressions (that insinuate themselves quickly into one's memory) are matched by emotionally charged lyrics on SILVER SIDE UP.
"Never Again" is a chilling description of domestic abuse from the victim's point of view. The radio-bound track "How You Remind Me" puts a cynical new spin on typical motifs usually reserved for 80's pop-metal balladeers. "Money Bought" addresses sexual exploitation while "Just For" shows how the darker side of love can inspire vengeance. On the whole, SILVER SIDE UP is a promising follow-up to THE STATE, closing with the token acoustic-meets-electric track "Good Times Gone."

Nickelback needs to start making music like this again. After years of owning this album, I still listen to it from time to time. I enjoy every song on it in its own way. But please, Nickelback, go back to your roots... or are the Good Times Gone?

Wow
It is rare that I buy a CD and like every single song on it. This is the exception. What a great selection of music this band put together. You will thoroughly enjoy listening to this one over and over again.

I like the CD a lot. I purchased it for one song, "How you remind me," but the more I listen to the entire CD the more I like it.

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No Never Again makes me smile
Never Again is absoloutely amazing.
I would get the CD for that song alone, but of course they had to give us 'How You Remind Me' and 'Too Bad' as well.

Most modern hard rock bands miss the mark by over-emphasizing great riffs and neglecting the importance of complementary vocals. Luckily, such is not the case with Staind, who owe some nods to Limp Bizkit's Fred Durst for career guidance. Durst encouraged vocalist Aaron Lewis to sing more and scream less, which proved to be a key factor in the band's development. The appeal of Staind lies in the purity and fierce emotional integrity of their music, traits seldom seen in heavy rock since Suicidal Tendencies and Pantera ...

Silver Side Up

Limp Bizkit's Fred Durst has a growing stable of talent that is building a track record of amazing successes; first with the wildcard explosion of Staind and then with the signing of melodic alt-rockers Puddle Of Mudd to his Flawless label. It's frightening how well the songs on COME CLEAN stick with the listener immediately. "Control" couples a sleaze-meets-Tool middle eight with STP-flavored guitar crunch. The single-worthy ...

"My Sacrifice" was nominated for the 2003 Grammy Awards for Best Rock Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocal.
Undaunted by the prospect of matching the diamond status of Creed's HUMAN CLAY, the band returned to the studio stripped to a three-piece unit. The album's title speaks volumes of the band's amazing rise to glory and trials of dealing with the critical backlash of seeming overnight success. With no immediate plans to replace founding bassist Brian Marshall (associate member Brett Hestla was busy with his own recording sessions), guitarist ...

The often difficult second album was made to look easy by McFly, the four lads from London who saw Busted, their main rivals for the affections of pre-teenage hearts, split up in 2005, leaving them the only guitar-based pop band in town, and McFly did not disappoint their army of fans with Wonderland. At the time of release, it already contained two number one singles, "I'll Be OK" and the Comic Relief charity hit "All About You," although the Carly Simon/James Taylor B-side (track two on the CD single) "You've Got a Friend" was not included. ...
