I know I am impressed!

And ClaySchmitt acted very unprofessional by not being able to separate his personal music taste and his thoughts on recording/mixing quality.

As an engineer/producer, a lot of the bands I enjoy listening to are not much because of the lyrics or whatever ClaySchmitt thinks is important, but the mix! That's why I listen to Limp Bizkit for example. As a producer and musician, I love to hear a good mix to inspire me.
Nickelback actually have pretty good hard rock lyrics, with good direction, sense of rhyme and prosody, while they're still meaningful. People relate to them.
