Nickelback is going to release a new album in November 2022, titled “Get Rollin”. The Canadian rockers have already revealed the first single of the album, called “San Quentin”.
Guitarist Ryan Peake and guitarist/vocalist Chad Kroeger said about the musical direction of the new album: “The record’s all over the map, just like all of our records are — they’re all over the map. We’re just starting off with a big, kick-the-door-down rocker, and there’s other heavy material on there, but, just like I said, like every other Nickelback record, it ebbs and flows and there’s something there for every single mood”.
Asked about why it took so long to produce the follow-up to 2017’s “Feed The Machine”, Chad Kroeger answered: “Well, we should have been making a record a lot sooner, with all that time off [due to the coronavirus pandemic]. But it’s weird to say this, but for 25 years it feels like someone’s been standing behind us with a cattle prod and telling us, ‘Hey, the record’s gotta be done at this time. We’re gonna tour at this time. We’re gonna do Australia and then we’re gonna go do Europe and then we’re gonna come back. We’ll go across Canada. We’ll hit America.’ Just like every other band that has to do this stuff, you wanna get a chance to see your fans all around the world. But with this, we were, like, ‘We’ll get to it when we get to it.’ [Laughs] And yeah, we took our time with it, which was just a wonderful luxury, to be able to sit back and [go], ‘No. I’m gonna play this guitar solo 40 more times for another three days and make sure it’s just exactly how we want it as opposed to deadline, deadline, deadline”.
Nickelback will embark on a U.S. tour in support of its new album in the summer of 2023.
