highly recommended

Nickelback have established themselves as one of the biggest rock bands in the world. With over 26 million albums sold worldwide they have made their mark in rock and roll history. Their new album, 'Dark Horse', is one of the most anticipated releases this year. The band brought in legendary producer Mutt Lange to produce the record with Nickelback and longtime collaborator Joey Moi.

Well Organized, well-written Album

I really like this album and waited a long time for them to come out with another one. This is well worth the wait. I love the mix of hard and classic rock. The songs are good to listen to. My favorite is "I'd come for you." Another song I've enjoyed was "Just get High". It was meaningful and brought a good message about drug addiction. That's why I like nickelback a lot. The songs mean something and can relate to people's problems and hardships and what's going on out there. I would highly recommend this CD.

Not worth $5.99 let alone $9.99

When I bought this album it was with very, very high expectations. I really liked Curb, The Long Road, Silver Side Up, The State, and All the Right Reasons, finding Silver Side Up and All the Right Reasons the best. Nickelback has with the album gone the way of the rest of the commercial sellouts managed by the likes of Mutt Lange. I didn't mind the occasional heavy song with lyrics along the lines of Something in your Mouth, but this album sounds like a collection of repetitive themed alternate versions of Away into the Night and Animals. Definitely won't pre-order the next one. I'll override my excitement and hopes for a new album and take the high road and just download and burn a copy. That way, if it reeks of commercial mediocrity such as Dark Horse does, I'll only be out the cost of a CD-R.
