Default Nickelback vs Slipknot

A friend of mine asked "who's the worst, Nickelback or Slipknot? What's the most repetitive and unoriginal?"
We decided to ask you guys which band you think is the better, or least bad. It seems to me that Nickelback is to rock as Slipknot is to metal, and vice versa.

Both are awful. Have not listened enough to say anything else. And will not listen enough.

Done.

And for the record I'm voting Slipknot. They at least have the masks and a little more interesting instrumentation.

Nice thread even if these type of threads end up being a troll's delight. I'm sure we're going to get a fanboy of either of these two bands on here saying how they're the best thing since sliced bread.

Though never having heard an entire album by either band, I'll say Slipknot, too.

Again, I don't think the first Slipknot album is that bad. Their problem was that the '90's ended.

Nickelback OTOH is just dreadful throughout.

I listened to both bands when they were popular (and I was 8 or so) but have since outgrown them. With that being said, I still like a few tracks off of Iowa still so Slipknot gets my vote.
