All the Right Reasons by Nickelback
All the Right Reasons is an album by Nickelback, released in 2005. 7 songs from it have charted on rock radio countdowns, with 38 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “Photograph”, on 13 lists with a best position of #9.
All the Right Reasons, Nickelback's fifth album, landed on Roadrunner in 2005 with a new man on the drum stool: Daniel Adair, formerly of 3 Doors Down, who replaced Ryan Vikedal in January of that year. Chad Kroeger sings, plays lead guitar and produced it, with Mike Kroeger on bass and Ryan Peake on rhythm guitar.
It's arena rock built to cover every base: meat-and-potatoes riffs on "Animals" and "Side of a Bullet", the mid-tempo sway of "Photograph", big ballads like "Far Away" and "Savin' Me", and the sing-along strut of "Rockstar". Seven singles came off it, three of them top 10 on the Hot 100, and it topped the album charts in both Canada and the US. It remains the band's biggest seller, certified diamond in the US and good for 11 million copies worldwide.
