They were listed number seven on the Billboard top artist of the decade, with four albums listed on the Billboard top albums of the decade.The band signed with Roadrunner Records in 1999 and re-released their once-independent album The State.The band achieved commercial success with the release of their 2000 album The State and then they achieved mainstream success with the release of their 2001 album Silver Side Up.Following the release of Silver Side Up the band released their biggest and most known hit today, "How You Remind Me" which peaked number 1 on the American and Canadian charts at the same time.Then, the band's fourth album The Long Road (2003) spawned 5 singles and continued the band's mainstream success with their hit single "Someday" which peaked at number 7 on the Billboard Hot 100 and number 1 at the Canadian Singles Chart.Afterwards, the band put out their biggest album to date, All The Right Reasons (2005) which produced 3 top 10 singles and 5 top 20 singles, on the Billboard Hot 100 example of songs like "Photograph", "Far Away", and "Rockstar".The band's album Dark Horse (2008) was a success which produced eight singles, one of which peaked on the top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 and two of which peaked on the top 20 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Album:
"Feed The Machine" (BMG), Nickelback's 9th studio album, is officially available everywhere on June 16. The blistering and defiant lead rock single, “Feed The Machine” is already a top 10 hit at Rock Radio in Canada and in the US ...Since the runaway commercial success of All The Right Reasons in 2005, Nickelback has been heavily (and fairly) criticised for the repetitive and formulaic nature of their music, frequently overusing themes of strippers and drugs. Therefore, it was certainly unexpected to hear ‘Feed The Machine,’ a comeback single focusing instead on the dangers of an all-powerful government with a surprisingly catchy guitar hook to match.Straight off the bat, the song drops into a heavy riff to let you know that this is no run-of-the-mill, unremarkable Nickelback song. Above a clash of drums and guitar, Chad Kroeger’s impassioned vocals immediately attack a “charlatan to idolise” in reference to the leader of the titular machine, warning of their power before entering a well-sung but ultimately forgettable chorus. The subsequent instrumental bridge is great to rock out to, although the remainder of the song is just as plain, usually with nonsensical lyrics (“The gears forever turn to grind the mice”) and rarely picking at the heart of the matter.Ultimately, ‘Feed The Machine’ provides an incredibly infectious and engaging guitar solo that returns between choruses to rock out to. Kroeger also warns fairly effectively, however it gets bogged down in its own heavy rock path with some bizarre lyrics and an unfortunately plain chorus. Had it been a little bit better, Nickelback’s most interesting song in years may well have fed insecurities about my own music tastes given their status as music’s meme kings. In the end, though, the most compelling thing about Nickelback’s latest single is that it’s not as awful as the rest of their work.
