Amazon.co.uk Review
Following in Staind's footsteps, Nickelback make the personal public and vent a history of frustration and resentment to melodic hard rock. Silver Side Up starts with "Never Again", an angry tirade against domestic violence that sheds light on the issue without too much sap or sentiment. The catchy "How You Remind Me" and "Woke Up This Morning" tell of rotting relationships, while other tracks touch on damaged hope and lost dreams. The post-grunge, alt-metal combo backing these songs packs as strong a punch as the lyrical material, going hard with lots of hooks. The additional slide guitar on "Hangnail" and sludgy, alt-metal riffs on "Hollywood", "Money Bought" and "Where Do I Hide" add a little meat to the alt-rock bones on Silver Side Up, elevating Nickelback above the heap of copycat rockers clogging the airwaves. --Jennifer Maerz

Oh no i'm in a state of high dudgeon, despair and dysphoria as this grandiose drivel cuts through my ear drums. Its quite possible that this is the most disturbing example of music as commerce i have ever heard. Chad Kroeger is an avaricious money mad pirate who specialises in tawdry, inept riffs and stultifying hooks that serve no purpose other than to extort money out of jocks and other asinine consumers. If you want truly profound, intuitive songwritng then avoid the music of this banal incubus while you still have the ability to feel!
 A Superb Rock Masterpiece!! August 7, 2008
"Silver Side Up" was the first Nickelback album that I ever bought and the one that turned me into a huge fan.
I can't recommened it enough, every song on the CD is a gem and you'll find yourself playing it again and again. A must have album for all rock fans!
Impressive! February 1, 2008

"Silver Side Up" is an impressive rock album full of powerful, heavyish but very catchy rock songs. Melody and power are not always something that are captured together on rock albums but Nickelback have managed it on this to great effect. You are launched into this wonderful world with the gorgeous opening track "Never Again" and the album just does not let up, delivering one storming song after another. The combination of pace, power and enjoyment in a studio album is rare - extremely impressive!!
Decent but not their best November 24, 2007

If you're new to Nickelback then odds are that the reason you're checking out this album is the second track single 'How You Remind Me'. It's a cool song but the album isn't all that great and if you want to hear more of their better stuff you're probably better off getting 'All The Right Reasons', it's longer and much better overall.
Having said that 'Silver Side Up' is still a nice little album and established fans should definitely add it to their collections, there's some very good tracks here but it's all just not as tight as some of their other albums.
Not the best introduction or the best album, but still pretty cool.
Great Album !!!! November 4, 2007

One of the best introductions to an album, ever. A rumbling bass line that blows you away. Then 'how you remind me' makes it just an individual and personal effort by Nickelback to stun everyone, and send their song straight to number 1, which happened.
Being a fan, I love Nickelback, so I love the album, I would love to see a new addition to the collection in the form of an unplugged concert, which would definitely gives these retro songs the edge that they need for some people to like them.
