 Nickelback is post-grunge alternative rock band.POST-GRUNGE not metal,fuckin alternative metal.cccccccc 
 ==Genre change== 
 Now I am well aware that hordes of Nickelback fans who are convinced that they are a hardcore grunge band will come to my house and rape me, but I added the genres pop rock and alternative rock to the genre list. I didn't remove the post-grunge label. I simply added those genres to cover their odd, poppy radio friendly songs. I'm open to suggestions though.   

 Are you f***ing insane, Nickelback is not a Pop Rock band they are a Post-grunge, Alternative Metal, Alternative Rock, Hard Rock band and thats final if you dis-agree with me then go to all music.com and look at their pag, there radio friendly songs are just part of the post-grunge and alternative rock style, alternative rock and post-grunge is radio friendly.  

 I totlly disagree with your claims that Nickelback are metal. Thats just ridiculous. Seriously though, man; Those songs like ""Photograph"" and what not cannot possibly be classified as post-grunge or even a power ballad. Time to revert some edits until I get a more accurate genre which covers the aforementioned songs.    

 the only guy i agree with is the last guy.  the previous 2 are retards.  nickelback is not/has not ever been a pop rock band.  and alternative metal?!!!  wtf?!!!  they are not metal at all.  i'm willing to accept hard rock, personally, i would just say post-grunge, alt rock, hard rock (somewhat), and maybe acoustic rock, since the acoustic guitar is present in many of the songs.    

 I think the genres should be alternative rock, hard rock, post-grunge 

 Alternative rock had a citaiton requested a whiel ago, and none was provided so it was taken down. Besides I don't realy see why they would be considered an alt rock band at all, what would they be the alternative too? Their style of music fits in with the mainstream rock that has been popular for years.  

 well, yeah.  they're really mainstream, and mainstream rock is mostly comprised of alt rock.  but with nickelback...yeah, alt rock.  but i'm also a little hesitant since the main reason they're mainstream is because their songs are all based off actual mainstream songs, only they made the songs sound rock-influenced.  the few original songs they have aren't that alt rock, since they lack the melodic tone, and just sound boring kinda...  

 They are hard rock, rock, and melodic rock 

 I also think that they do a lot of Chrisitan rock for example from 'if everyone cared' they repeated ""Singing Amen, I, I'm alive 
 Singing Amen, I, I'm alive"" a couple of times which may not seem to straightaway imply that they are a Christian rock band but rather suggest it in an indirect way.  
 Other quotes suggesting that they are Christian rock include ""Oh oh oh Oh god I"" Photgraph 
 ""Heaven's gates won't open up for me 
 With these broken wings I'm fallin' 
 And all I see is you 
 These city walls ain't got no love for me 
 I'm on the ledge of the eighteenth story 
 And oh I scream for you 
 Come please I'm callin' 
 And all I need from you 
 Hurry I'm fallin', I'm fallin'"" Savin me 

 ""Please God, don't let him pull it 
 How could you put us through it? 
 His brother watched you do it 

 How could you take his life away?"" Side of a bullet 

 These are all from their newest album as well which shows them to still use terms referring to God etc. One more thing to note is that almost all their songs have refrence to God. 

 So i think that besides whatever genre you guyz think NIckelback should be, i also think they should be Christian Rock.   

 Christian Rcok bands are bands whose purpose is to sing about god, and help spread his message. Nickelback on the other hand likes to sing about sex drugs and rock and roll. Nickelback isnt christian rock.   

 I think Nickelback SHOULD be counted also as Alternative Metal. Many of their studio songs have an edge that is harder and use more shred than grunge , i.e. ""Because Of You"" and ""Side Of A Bullet"". Some of their songs have a similar sound to some of the nu metal bands (not saying that Nickelback is nu metal, because that would be very wrong). 

 honestly, please, just please, remove alternative metal.  the only reason they're called th
