This week the VORTX got drunk and decided to buy everyone double shots of Nickelback!

Whether you like it or not, Nickelback has been a top Rock band for the past 17 years. They’ve released nine albums so far. In March, Nickelback joined the exclusive DIAMOND-certified club after the RIAA certified the group’s fifth studio album, All the Right Reasons, DIAMOND for surpassing 10 million units. Even if you don’t like them, they’ve got to be doing something right to get all of those record sales.

Earlier this year, Nickelback released their ninth album, Feed The Machine. You’ll hear a few songs from that album as well as a few that may be more familiar to you for either good or bad reasons.

I had a chance to chat with Chad and Mike from the band. Listen to what they had to say.

This week we’ll also have the latest tunes from Stone Sour, Avenged Sevenfold and more.

Don’t forget to keep up with us on Facebook and Twitter for all of the latest updates from inside the Vortx. You can also email any requests to [email protected].

The Vortx understands that all of these songs may require headbanging, crying and heavy drinking. In the case that any of these required actions take place the VORTX is not responsible for any injuries and will not pay for a doctor’s visit. Any and all actions that may cause harm are not encouraged by the Vortx, but if you do choose to participate we sure as hell won’t stop you. If you are unable to make it to work Monday morning because your ears are bleeding please have your immediate supervisor email [email protected] and we will explain everything. We’ll see you soon.
