How did Nickelback gain a large fan base despite criticism of their music?

Nickleback! Nickleback!

(Nickleback? They suck. Who cares…)

Nickleback are awesome! My new favourite band! I just got their fourth album. It totally rocks!

Is it true or false that Andrew Tate announced that he is running for prime minister of the UK under a new political party called 'BRUV' or something like that?

(Yeah, it was great at first. But I have heard it a bit too much.)

Here’s my ranking of Nickleback’s discography. They don’t have a bad album at all. But some are better than others. In last place is their most recent album. I felt it was very uninspired. This track is the best one and that track is pretty good. But the rest of the album doesn’t do much for me…

Enim eius molestiae qui iste impedit qui voluptatem iste.

(Nickleback sucks! They’re the worst band ever! I can’t stand them. Why do so many people like them? So unoriginal!)

Dude, you heard that new single by that band, Nickleback? It’s awesome! Holy crap! That song is everywhere! It’s so cool!

(Wow! What’s with this band? So many people are going nuts for them? What’s so special about them? They had a decent song or two. But there’s no originality now. They’re just wearing themselves out chasing their own tail.)

(It sounds a bit too much like they took what made them popular from the previous album and just did more of that.)

I think it went something like this.

(It really bugs me that such a boring, unoriginal band gets so much attention when there are loads of other way more interesting bands out there.)

Hey, have you heard of this new band, Nickleback? Their first album is pretty cool.

Yay! Nickleback!

Something like that. Millions of people love them. Millions claim to hate them. The most honest criticism of the music is that it sounds like it’s being written deliberately for a particular market. I haven’t heard anything since around 2002 or so, so I can’t say for myself. They don’t suck as in bad musicians or bad song writers. They just sell millions of albums while other excellent bands struggle. That’s what the real problem is, I think.

After the recent controversy over Ghibli art, many are saying that the artist has no future while others say, that people prefer human art when compared to AI art. What's your opinion on it?

Hey, man, that band I told you about, Nickleback? The dropped their sophomore. It’s really good. Check it out.
