I'll probably catch some heat for this but Creed and Nickelback are both pretty solid bands. I wouldn't call either my favorite by any means but it is my firm opinion that the hate they've gotten over the years is more of a viral opinion than any legitimate criticism.
While we're on the subject, listen to Alterbridge if you haven't heard them. It's Creed with Myles Kennedy as a front man, who is an amazing singer.
Nickelback isn't a bad band. They were just over marketed and over played to death. People don't hate the band so much as that aspect of the music industry.
I think It was a bandwagon thing. It got cool to hate on them and everyone just went with it.
It's maybe also something about Nickelback fans. As a Nickelback fan, I can't really blame anyone for whom Nickelback is not their cup of tea.
We're just such a gosh darned reasonable fandom. I'm sorry when I think about how members of Nickelback have suffered for my politeness and good taste, though.
