Says the Oasis fan. Honestly, what planet do you live on?

You're ignorant statement could easily apply to so many bands which have their own sound or niche and stick to what they are good/successful at .. ACDC etc. anyone? Who says you have to keep pushing the envelope and trying new sounds? Only the critics usually. Rule number 1 of marketing your b(r)and, find your sound and if it aint broke don't fix it.

I for one always find myself really liking a handful of songs off each Nickelback album.. the records don't usually have the long play factor though for me which makes me want to keep coming back to, but they are almost studio perfect live, have some excellent tunes and, contrary to popular belief, have written many 'deeper' songs. ''If today was your last day' being one of my personal favourites, and anyone who disagrees with the lyrics to that song is either a miserable old cynical bastard or plain stupid, fact!

But god, do i hate alot of their fun drinking 'lets have sex' party songs, but hey, why are Motley Crue, Def Leppard et al allowed to get away with it?
