Nickelback gives fans a home town feel (Seattle Times) For singer/guitarist Chad Kroeger it wasn't so much the kick-off show on the last leg of Nickelback's "All The Right Reasons" tour as it was a gig in his own backyard. Swedish band produces a sensational, limitless LP (Daily Nebraskan) It's hard to be objective about Peter Bjorn & John. In 2006, the Swedish trio worked their way into the iPods of the world with their infectious single "Young Folks," earning instant approval from the Pitchfork crowd and essentially every music critic, except for maybe Bob Lefsetz (but he only likes Nickelback, anyway). Nickelback charms fans in concert (Seattle Post-Intelligencer) Nickelback isn't new, it doesn't reinvent the wheel, but Tuesday night at the Tacoma Dome, it showered fans with love, fireworks, flames, T-shirts from prize cannons and, had the law allowed, they would have added kegs of beer. Extremely Hindered (POLLSTAR) Oklahoma outfit Hinder has added U.S. dates that will keep the band on the road into mid-May. The group will cover the South through March 16, then head to Europe for a two-week tour that will include stops in Sweden, Germany, the Netherlands, France and the U.K. Rockers band together for baby Justice fundraiser (The Herald-Mail) Rich Hannon is no stranger to playing music for a good cause. Before he moved to Annapolis, Md., in 2003, Hannon coordinated four Summer Bashes, concerts to raise money for the John R. Marsh Cancer Center at Robinwood Medical Center. Moving into a new reality, one road show at a time (Denver Post) Most platinum-selling rock stars favor the big cities over the smaller markets such as Flint, Mich.; Troy, N.Y.; Cedar Rapids, Iowa; Joplin, Mo.; and St. Charles, Mo. MUSIC: The Spin (Nashville Scene) Last Saturday, we dusted off our dancing shoes and headed out to Cannery Row for mash-up maestro Girl Talk, Nickelback label mates De Novo Dahl and frat-rush skit gone awry Plastic Clap! Recent Roadrunner signees DND?s crisp indie-pop sounded vibrant, tight and textured. BRIAN MCCOLLUM: Music weekend (Detroit Free Press) When the story of emo in the '00s is told, Taking Back Sunday might be held up as Exhibit A. The New York quartet typifies the post-hardcore aesthetic as well as anyone: the razor guitars, the pealing vocals, the vulnerable, heart-wrenched lyrics.
