It's okay Canada you gave us Rush, Arcade Fire, GY!BE and Devin Townsend so we can forgive you.
Every time Canada comes out with a new music trend, whether or not people will like it is pretty much a coin flip.

And Justin Bieber.
[QUOTE=CodeMonkey3;33116064]Why do so many people hate them? They're just a band.[/QUOTE]
Many people confuse "I fucking hate x band" with "I fucking hate x bands members". Big difference!
I hate their music. Pretty much how I hate some of my friends music, but I don't hate them for it?

good canadian music you say? :v:
I don't get it, what's with all the hate towards Nickelback? I've only heard one or two of their songs, but what makes them so terrible?
I'm the only one here that likes Nickelback? :s.

It's just people jumping on the bandwagon to fit in and look cool.

The same can be said about people who [I]like[/I] their music.

Oh? So deciding that Nickelback sucks after being forced to listen to them whenever I rode with my step-father for 10 years is jumping on the bandwagon?
In my opinion, Nickelbacks music isnt very good. I've seen interviews with the band and they seem like decent guys.
This, is probably the best Nickelback song...

Not really, as more oft than not those that say, "I like them," justify, whereas over half the people that say they suck just say, "Because."

I've found the justifications usually revolve around their "powerful lyrics" or something that they've just heard someone else say, and then adopted that belief themself. I know everybody's entitled to their opinion, but they're pretty average lyrics.

Understatement of the century.
ITT: People proclaim a dislike of Nickelback which I don't share, and I'm not such a massive fucking faggot that I ascribe any opinion not my own to be part of a "bandwagon".
I wouldn't call myself a fan of their music, but some of their songs aren't too bad. I don't like them enough to buy any of their music, but if I heard it on the radio I'd tolerate it.
