I have mixed feelings about this band.

They are either loved or hated, there seems to be no middle. But for me, I'm straddling that line.

If you go way back and listen to their early shit, they are actually pretty raw and rockin'. Coincidentally, so was Live. Lately, their music has become fairly boring and uncreative...Pop rock if you will.......Coincidentally, so has Live's music. I think they've followed fairly similar paths.

I think both bands are average musically, on par with one another. BUT, what sets these bands far apart to me is that Live's earlier work borders lyrical genius. Their music was relevant to society, and spoke volumes on many issues that artists that young don't dare approach nowadays. It touched a lot of people deep down on a shitload of different levels.

Overall, although I don't like their recent music and writing, LIVE is the superior band in my opinion

i like nickelbacks old stuff. such as that song called Someday or w/e it is. but i dont like their recent stuff. i think theyre being fake and they try and make themselves seem so high and mighty by writing about peace and love and such.

live is by faaarrrr better than them.
