Nickelback is set to release their new, still untitled, album on November 18. They’re in the studio with acclaimed producer Mutt Lange, who has been behind the board for Def Leppard, AC/DC, and countless others. The first single from the collection will be “If Today Was Your Last Day.”

Nickelback, who evolved from a straight ahead hard rock band to a hard rock band with a pop twist, is under no illusions. The band’s Mike Kroeger and Ryan Peake say they know what they are and they know what they’re not.

[Mike] “I think it’s safe to say that there’s a high degree of sense of self in this band. We know who we are and we know who we’re not. If it happens that we are creating music that is not us, if one of us doesn’t get it or all of us don’t get it, there’s always one person who is going, ‘This is not…’ There is always somebody who goes, ‘Whoa, whoa, whoa. That’s really, really cool, but it’s not us, really not what we do.'” [Peake] “We’ve never gone out there and tried to be the flavor of the week.” [Mike] “We couldn’t do it anyway. We could try as hard as we want and never be that.” [Peake] “We’re terrible dancers, and I’ve always said we’d make a horrible pop band, a horrible boy band.” [Mike] “I don’t shave often enough. To be in a boy band you have to keep up on this sort of thing.” [Peake] “(We) can’t get him to shave.”

The first single, “If Today Was Your Last Day” will impact at all radio formats on September 30th.
