Nickelback
Nov 23, 2014
"Edge of a Revolution" is the latest single from the Canadian rock band, Nickelback. Via Republic Records, it is on their upcoming eighth studio album, No Fixed Address, released on November 14th. The track is also the official theme song of the current Survivor Series. It's their first set for new label home Republic (after years on indie Roadrunner Records), and the first single is also a departure for the band, having a political message that's not been part of their hit catalog to date. This latest collection coincides with the 6 year anniversary of their sixth studio album, Dark Horse.
Formed in 1995 in Hanna, Alberta, the band is composed of guitarist and lead vocalist Chad Kroeger, guitarist, keyboardist and backing vocalist Ryan Peake, bassist Mike Kroeger, and drummer Daniel Adair. The band went through a few drummer changes between 1995 and 2005, achieving its current form when Adair replaced drummer Ryan Vikedal. Nickelback is one of the most commercially successful Canadian groups, having sold more than 50 million albums worldwide and ranking as the eleventh best-selling music act, and the second best-selling foreign act in the U.S. of the 2000s, behind The Beatles. Their hit song "How You Remind Me" was listed as the top rock song of the decade and the fourth song of the decade. They were listed number seven on the Billboard top artist of the decade, with four albums listed on the Billboard top albums of the decade.
