Personally, I think they just came at the wrong time -- when post-grunge had already exhausted itself as anything remotely interesting. They're no worse than the slew of shite PG bands that came before: Local H, Marcy Playground, Silverchair, etc.

I haven't heard anything good from / about nickelback, which is perhaps because the less musically interested mass audience have been trying to tune to a rather 'catchy' rock band -- which in our eyes is bland by ever means.
Carpathian Forest - I think they are an overrated typical black metal band that came around at the wrong time, with crappy lyrics.
