"Fly" was included on both ''Hesher'' and ''Curb'' and was the first single produced by Nickelback. In 1997, Brandon Kroeger left the band and was replaced by Mitch Guindon; however, Guindon soon departed as well. While initially reported due to him starting work at a car company, Guindon's departure came due to him "not [being] meant for the road". Chad Kroeger stated that his skin was not able to handle cold weather and they convinced him to leave.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://loudwire.com/nickelback-wikipedia-fact-or-fiction/|title=NICKELBACK PLAY 'WIKIPEDIA: FACT OR FICTION?'|website=Loudwire.com|last=Hartman|first=Graham|date=August 23, 2017|access-date=August 6, 2020}}</ref> In Summer 1998, Ryan Vikedal joined the band.

Although an unknown property in the industry at the time, the venue was packed out. In Burman's words: "I immediately got the chills!

Despite this, it still took Burman three months for him to convince his label bosses to approve the signing, a decision that would mark Roadrunner's first move into mainstream rock.<ref name="hitquarters.com"/> Nickelback signed a record deal with EMI and [[Roadrunner Records]] in 1999. ''[[The State (album)|The State]]'' was released by Nickelback in 2000 by [[Roadrunner Records]] and [[EMI|EMI Canada]], followed by its release in Europe in 2001. It spawned 4 singles: "Old Enough", "[[Worthy to Say]]", "[[Leader of Men]]" and "[[Breathe (Nickelback song)|Breathe]]", the last two being Top 10 rock hits.

I would dissect every single song that I would hear on the radio or every song that had ever done well on a chart and I would say, 'Why did this do well?'" Kroeger said that Nickelback's single "[[How You Remind Me]]" sold so well because it was about romantic relationships, a universal subject, and contained memorable hooks.<ref name="notablebiographies2007">{{cite web|url=http://www.notablebiographies.com/newsmakers2/2007-Li-Pr/Nickelback.html |title=Nickelback Biography β born, house, time, year, Career, Sidelights, Selected discography, Sources β Newsmakers Cumulation |publisher=Notablebiographies.com |access-date=November 6, 2011}}</ref> {{listen |type=music |filename=How You Remind Me sample.ogg |title="How You Remind Me" |description=Nickelback's "How You Remind Me" from ''[[Silver Side Up]]'' }} To record their third album ''[[Silver Side Up]]'', Nickelback collaborated with producer [[Rick Parashar]].

While performing the second song of their set, Chad Kroeger was sprayed with a full bottle of water hurled from somewhere within the audience. After finishing the song, Chad asked the crowd, "Do you want to hear some rock 'n' roll or do you want to go home?" A person in the audience then threw a rock at Chad's head. The band then left stage, with Chad and Vikedal giving [[the finger]] to the audience as they left.

We were out there, and something came up and our producer had to take some time off. So I took that opportunity to return home to [[Los Angeles]] with family and spend a little time at home but I'll be headed back up there in a couple of weeks to pick it up again." When asked about a potential timeframe for a release date, Kroeger said "it'll be done when it's done", explaining that the band would rather not be confined to a timescale for fear of making "a shitty record". "Release dates are primarily arrived at by business interests, like record labels and whatever. We don't have one of those", he said. "We've been managing ourselves for about a year. So, the answer is no. We're doing it on our schedule, at our own pace, and it'll be done when it's done. 'Cause we've blown up deadlines in the past lots of times. Because we feel that you can make a good record and be late, but you can't, or you shouldn't, make a shitty record to be on time. So we won't be pressed for time.<ref>{{cite web|first=Merlin|last=Alderslade|url=https://www.loudersound.com/news/nickelback-heavy-new-song|title=Nickelback are teasing a seriously heavy new song and the internet is loving it|date=August 24, 2022|access-date=September 7, 2022}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://blabbermouth.net/news/nickelback-is-working-on-new-studio-album-itll-be-done-when-its-done|title=Nickelback is Working on New Studio Album: 'It'll be Done when It's Done'|work=[[Blabbermouth.net]]|date=July 31, 2021|access-date=September 7, 2022}}</ref> In August 2022, Nickelback began posting small snippets and teasers of new music via their official social media accounts with the date "09.07.2022" being branded on the posts.<ref>{{cite web|first=Philip|last=Trapp|url=https://loudwire.com/nickelback-new-music-teaser-sounds-metalcore-video/|title=Nickelback Tease New Music That Sounds Very Metalcore|work=[[Loudwire]]|date=August 23, 2022|access-date=September 7, 2022}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|first=JD|last=Lewis|url=https://www.iheartradio.ca/cjay92/features/dude-news/listen-10-seconds-of-new-nickelback-which-is-apparently-coming-soon-1.18416907|title=Listen: 10 Seconds of New Nickelback...Which is Apparently Coming Soon|work=[[iHeartRadio]]|date=August 24, 2022|access-date=September 7, 2022}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|first=Greg|last=Kennelty|url=https://metalinjection.net/upcoming-releases/nickelback-is-teasing-new-music-and-it-sounds-pretty-heavyback-heavy-new-song/|title=Nickelback Is Teasing New Music And It Sounds Pretty Heavy|work=Metal Injection|date=August 23, 2022|access-date=September 7, 2022}}{{Dead link|date=August 2023 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref> On August 26, 2022, students attending school at [[Simon Fraser University]] in [[Burnaby]], [[British Columbia]] received a newsletter stating they were invited to attend and participate in a video shoot Nickelback would be hosting on August 30, 2022, for their single, outside the Convocation Mall on campus.<ref name="blabbermouth get rollin">{{cite web|url=https://blabbermouth.net/news/nickelback-to-release-new-single-san-quentin-next-week|title=Nickelback To Release New Single "San Quentin" Next Week|work=[[Blabbermouth.net]]|date=August 31, 2022|access-date=September 7, 2022}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.antimusic.com/news/2022/09/01nickelback-attract-hundreds-of-fans-to-video-shoot.shtml|title=Nickelback Attract Hundreds of Fans to Video Shoot|date=August 31, 2022|access-date=September 3, 2022}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|first=Stuart|last=Derdeyn|url=https://vancouversun.com/entertainment/nickelback-video-shoot|title=Nickelback needs you for a video shoot at SFU Tuesday|work=[[Vancouver Sun]]|date=August 29, 2022|access-date=September 7, 2022}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.cbc.ca/player/play/2067731011696|title=Diehard Nickelback fans defend their love of the band|work=[[Canadian Broadcasting Corporation|CBC]]|date=September 1, 2022|access-date=September 7, 2022}}</ref> The album title was revealed to be ''[[Get Rollin']]''.<ref name="blabbermouth get rollin"/><ref name="loudwire get rollin">{{cite web|first=Joe|last=DiVita|url=https://loudwire.com/nickelback-san-quentin-song-lyrics-get-rollin-album/|title=Nickelback Debut Super Heavy New Song "San Quentin" + Announce "Get Rollin" Album|work=[[Loudwire]]|date=September 7, 2022|access-date=September 7, 2022}}</ref><ref name="the prp get rollin">{{cite web|url=https://www.theprp.com/2022/09/07/news/nickelback-debut-new-single-san-quentin-from-their-upcoming-album-get-rollin/|title=Nickelback Debut New Single "San Quentin" From Their Upcoming Album "Get Rollin'"|work=The PRP|date=September 7, 2022|access-date=September 7, 2022}}</ref> The lead single "[[San Quentin (song)|San Quentin]]" was released on September 7, 2022.<ref name="blabbermouth get rollin"/><ref name="loudwire get rollin"/><ref name="the prp get rollin"/> The second single "Those Days" was released on October 5, 2022,<ref>{{cite web|url=https://blabbermouth.net/news/nickelback-shares-another-new-song-those-days|title=Nickelback Shares Another New Song 'Those Days'|work=[[Blabbermouth.net]]|date=October 5, 2022|access-date=July 31, 2023}}</ref> followed by a music video on October 26.<ref>{{cite web|first=Joe|last=DiVita|url=https://loudwire.com/nickelback-those-days-song-lyrics/|title=Nickelback's Reveal Official Video for Nostalgia-Filled Song 'Those Days'|work=[[Loudwire]]|date=October 26, 2022|access-date=July 31, 2023}}</ref> The band embarked on its "Get Rollin' Tour" with opening acts [[Brantley Gilbert]] and [[Josh Ross]].
