Chad Kroeger of Nickelback weighs in on working with Avril
Quote:
Nickelback frontman Chad Kroeger opened up to Mix 104.1/Boston about the band’s recent collaboration with Avril Lavigne.
Kroeger and the band are currently working with Avril on a new record, which he says is up to eight songs. He says Avril has “a lot of tricks in her arsenal” ranging from straight-up rock to more “rhythmic”-oriented genres, and that he was impressed by her creative energy and range of talents. He was also impressed with her ability to hang, saying “she can pound the vodka, for a girl of her stature.”
When asked what exactly he’s doing with Avril, Kroeger said, “We were just gonna couple of tunes. And then she wanted me to sing on one of them and then we just started flying on all these different songs.”
On the collaborative nature of the music business and how often artists from different backgrounds work together, Kreoger said that “things just clicked real quick.”
If it's Hero 2.0 or Rockstar 2.0 I'm fine. But the rest of their discography is complete and utter trash. Avril you do not need to do this. This is the worst Collab she could do.

You actually want that?
If it's a How You Remind Me 2.0 or a Savin' Me pt. II then
I don't want it but it's better than anything else it could be. I just realized Hero is Chad's solo song and not even Nickelback. But these all need to remain in the studio and never see the light of day.
I feel people always complain about Nickelback,(in general) nobody seems to give them a fair chance, while they have some amazing songs and also lyrical they are strong imo.
I am really excited
Hopefully Avril promotes this album more. Unlike Goodbye Lullaby. Goodbye Lullaby is such a great album. I just wish it got more promo and a couple more singles.
