Music reviews of The Long Road

Music Review: LONG ROAD
Rating: 5 Stars

This is a great follow on from the 2001 hit album 'Silver Side Up', which this album develops on and makes a better sound, better melodies and better lyrics; which give the album the push to make it one of the great albums of the 00's. The tunes are heart-stopping, which 'Figured You Out' having a great guitar intro, and the melodic follow on 'Should've Listened' makes the album much better than their first effort, 'Silver Side Up', which fit the time well. The fast paced album opener 'Flat On the Floor' is an eye opener, with a constant drum bashing and guitar mashing being the centerpiece of the whole song. The vocals are riveting, with great lyrics to go with Chad Kroeger's mind-blowing singing voice; which is very distinct. 'Someday', 'Believe It Or Not', 'Because Of You' and 'Another Hole In The Head' keep the album interesting with guitar pounding anthems, drum fills and great vocals by Chad Kroeger. They all have their strong points but not many weak points that people can pick at and criticise this great album. The extra bonus tracks are killer. Great cover of 'Saturday Night's...' which is nearly as good as the original. 'Learn The Hard Way' is a great song which has distinctly editted vocals which gives the song a different direction to move in, which is good. 'Yanking Out My Heart' also has a distinct repetitive gutiar rhythm which is the only song on the album, that lets it down.

Description of The Long Road

Japanese only SHM-CD (Super High Material CD - playable on all CD players) pressing. Includes two bonus tracks. Road Runner.
It's never easy following up a multi-platinum success, but Canada's Nickelback's latest seem sure to match the sales of the many-million-selling Silver Side Up. The formula remains pretty much the same--nothing fancy, just radio-friendly grunge that lends an appropriately dramatic backing to the powerful and increasingly confident voice of Chad Kroeger. Aside from the fast and punchy opener "Flat on the Floor," the tough, staccato "Because of You," and the Oasis-like "Figured You Out," the band deal exclusively in soft-rock anthems (soft, that is, by 2003's pulverizing standards). The only real change here lies is in Kroeger's lyrical concerns. Where 2000's The State found him suffering the frustrations of small-town life, now he's tortured by a heavy touring schedule that promotes destructive drug abuse and strains relationships to breaking point. That said, you can't help feeling the ruthlessly analytical Kroeger would turn a visit to the supermarket into a riot of hatred and self-recrimination. For fans of Silver Side Up, Nickelback have delivered the goods once more. --Dominic Wills
