Nickelback’s public image has changed quite a bit throughout the years. At times, they’re regarded as one of the biggest rock bands in the world. In other moments, the masses seem to turn on them and even hate them.
Through it all, Nickelback has persevered, and they’re still working. The band dropped a new live album recently, and it’s become a win on a number of charts all around the planet. The project even brings them back to the top 10 on one list in the U.K., which shows that if even for a moment, the hard rockers are still a favorite among a fairly large audience.
Live From Nashville debuts at No. 7 on the Official Rock & Metal Albums chart. The set brings Nickelback to the top 10 once again on the U.K.’s roster that focuses on the bestselling titles in just rock and metal.
Nickelback has already reached the top 10 on that tally with nine different projects. Half a dozen of those have risen all the way to No. 1.
The band hasn’t waited very long in between their latest two top 10 smashes on the Official Rock & Metal Albums chart. Back in December 2022, their latest studio recording, Get Rollin’, launched on the tally. It brought them back to the throne, becoming their sixth leader.
Live From Nashville debuts on four charts in the U.K. this week, and it performs best on the genre-specific list. It also hits the Official Album Downloads (No. 28), Official Albums Sales (No. 43), and the Official Physical Albums (No. 60) rankings at the same time.
Nickelback scores the second-loftiest new entry on the Official Rock & Metal Albums chart this week, and they’re in excellent company. Linkin Park starts their comeback project From Zero at No. 1—and not just on the rock-only list. From Zero is a huge win across the Atlantic, as it opens in first place on almost every roster it reaches. Iron Maiden’s Powerslave isn’t new to the list, but it does re-enter at No. 2, right behind Linkin Park.
