During a conversation with Wall of Sound, Nickelback bassist Mike Kroeger discussed his personal music taste and fondness of the metal genre.
You can check out a part of the interview below.
Would you consider doing a much heavier record with metal tones, or do you not want to alienate your mainstream fanbase?
“I would love to. Metal is what makes me go, it’s what I listen to without fail. If we could actually sink in and do a metal album, all four of us would love it.
“I know that we’re all – on differing scales – metalheads at our core. We all know everything about the Big Four – Metallica, Megadeth, Anthrax, and Slayer.
“I would do a Slayer cover album if I could. That’s where my heart lies. There are just never enough hours in the day to do everything, but let’s just say I wouldn’t count it out.”
