Editing Nickelback (section)

=== ''Silver Side Up'' and ''The Long Road'' (2001–2004) ===
Around 2001, [[Chad Kroeger]] started "studying every piece, everything sonically, everything lyrically, everything musically, chord structure. 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 – born, house, time, year, Career, Sidelights, Selected discography, Sources – Newsmakers Cumulation |publisher=Notablebiographies.com |access-date=November 6, 2011}}</ref>

This recording also featured [[Tyler Connolly]], Mike Kroeger, [[Matt Cameron]], and [[Jeremy Taggart]]. In 2002, Nickelback released their first DVD ''Live at Home''. On August 19, 2002, an incident occurred while the band was performing at the [[Ilha do Ermal]] festival in [[Portugal]]. 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. The band's label, Roadrunner, posted video footage of the entire incident on their website.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://chartattack.com/damn/2002/08/2109.cfm|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20030705100124/http://chartattack.com/damn/2002/08/2109.cfm|url-status=usurped|archive-date=July 5, 2003|title=Nickelback Get Pelted By Rocks in Portugal  |publisher=[[Chart Attack]]|access-date=January 31, 2019}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AeDV3ERyc0k | archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/youtube/20211030/AeDV3ERyc0k| archive-date=2021-10-30|title=Nickelback sucking in Portugal | date=April 2009|via=[[YouTube]]|access-date=January 31, 2019}}{{cbignore}}</ref>
