Silver Side Up by Nickelback
Silver Side Up is an album by Nickelback, released in 2001. 3 songs from it have charted on rock radio countdowns, with 77 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “How You Remind Me”, on 53 lists with a best position of #2.
Silver Side Up, Nickelback's third album, came out on Roadrunner on September 11, 2001, and it's the one that turned the Canadian band into international heavyweights. Chad Kroeger, Mike Kroeger, Ryan Peake and Ryan Vikedal produced it with Rick Parashar, and they sharpened the brooding, hard-charging sound of their first two records into something built to rattle car stereos.
"How You Remind Me" is the big one: a bruised, moody number that simmers in the verses and explodes in the chorus. "Too Bad" chugs along with heavy-hearted grit, and "Never Again" is a pounding, furious rocker.
It hit number one in Canada, the UK, Ireland, New Zealand and Austria, went 8 times platinum at home, 6 times platinum in the US and 3 times platinum in the UK, and won the Juno Award for Rock Album of the Year in 2002. The world tour that followed took them into UK arenas for the first time, and when they came home they got straight to work on The Long Road.
