Neither Kroeger or Imagine Dragons, which is fronted by Dan Reynolds, have responded to Taylor’s comments yet. Not that they've left the angst of grunge behind: they're a modern rock band living in a post-grunge world, so there are lots of tortured emotions threaded throughout the 11 songs here. However, Taylor stated that his hatred is directed only at Kroeger and not the other members of Nickelback. With their fourth album, All the Right Reasons, Nickelback ditch any pretense of being a grunge band and finally acknowledge they're a straight-up heavy rock band. There were other jabs thrown around by both of the grown men at the time. “I’ll still eat it, but I’m not gonna feel good about it.” In response, Taylor called Kroeger a “d–khead,” adding that he doesn’t care about what he has to say. “Chad Kroeger is to rock what KFC is to chicken,” he cracked. “How good can your music be if you’ve got to beat each other up onstage throw up in your own masks every night?” he asked in reference to Slipknot. Their arguing got really ugly in the summer of 2017, though, after Kroeger said in an interview that Taylor’s Stone Sour “sound like Nickelback light” and Slipknot is just a gimmicky act. Will Taylor’s (backhanded) compliment help mend fences with Nickelback’s frontman, Chad Kroeger, with whom he’s feuded over many years? The two musicians have reportedly been on the outs since the late ’90s when both of their bands were signed to the same label, Roadrunner Records. He finished the rant by saying, “People are slowly coming back to appreciate Nickelback, and then just turning their irksome ire towards Imagine Dragons.” Taylor lives in the same town form which Imagine Dragons hails, Las Vegas, and joked that he was concerned about going “home to protests.” Four years after releasing her second album, Melodrama, the 24-year-old New Zealand singer has returned with her upcoming release Solar Power.But while the full album won.
