Since StSanders came along, others have become inspired by the likes of The Creed:
On the topic of getting inspiration from super shitty post-grunge rock bands, it was brought to my attention that not everyone has heard Mikey Smith's brilliant Nickleback mash-up, dubbed "How You Remind Me of Someday." In case you feel doubtful over the proximity of the word 'brilliant' next to the bands name it's okay, just listen to it.
Download here.
In a response to the track, bass player Mike Kroeger stated "I think that's remarkable for someone to notice that there is a hit quality. If all hits sound the same, then sorry. When you are a band that has a distinct style such as us or AC/DC, that happens. When you have a distinct style, you run the risk of sounding similar."
Oh well. If you're already familiar with the track, there is also an NPR interview with the creator of the track.
Lastly, I leave you with classic footage of the gang getting stoned in Portugal. No, in the biblical sense:
"Have We Got Any Nickelback Fans in Portugal?!?!?!?"
