I hate Nickelback as much as the next guy or gal but if your the 2nd best selling act in the states behind the Beatles, and one of your albums has 7 + million copies sold, then you must be doing something right.

Jesus Christ. I feel proud to be British, I bet over in the states you come across a few Nickelback fans then.

I've never heard a Christian rock band before, the genre is just something I really don't want to explore. I bet I'm missing out..

Are you talking about 'Christian rock' as an actual genre or just alternative/rock music that happens to be singing about religious things?

The actual genre. There are actually a number of styles that throw in the religious side of things....though I don't really like any of it "Christian rock" itself annoys me the most.
