Released in September of 1999, and reaching gold status in Canada, Nickelback's The State was a firecracker of a debut, with all four singles hitting Top 25 at Rock Radio. "It was fantastic," says guitarist Ryan Peake. "The snowball effect of the album was phenomenal. The success we were having in Canada helped create and increase the buzz in the States, where things had been bubbling for...

How you remind me- silver side up

[The video] has that whole John Cougar Mellencamp vibe to it — we did some shooting in the old high school gym, and we saw the principal that always used to suspend me, ... We made up. But I broke into that school 11 times. In the song I say, 'Criminal record says I broke in twice/ I must have done it half a dozen times.' It was actually 11. Now, it's sort of funny. The principal laughs about it and it's no big deal. But when I was in court, he didn't think it was so funny.
Chad Kroegor (edit) And it's kind of spooky to be singing about him, you know, your friend who's gone, and then have him play this shredding, amazing guitar solo.
Chad Kroeger (edit) We were a little scared of using piano. We just didn't think it was very rock and roll.
Chad Kroeger (edit) It just complimented the part so well and really showed that we shouldn't be narrow-minded.
Chad Kroeger (edit) [Kroeger was introduced to Dimebag and Paul in 2002 in Dallas by former Alice in Chains guitarist Jerry Cantrell, who was touring as Nickelback's opening act. A few drinks later, the ex-Pantera members admitted to Kroeger that they were big fans.] Vinnie told me he listened to Nickelback every day, which really surprised me, ... But I guess they come from that whole Southern-rock background, and we're a hard-rock band with Southern-rock influences, so they liked it a lot.
