Feed the Machine is the ninth studio album by Canadian rock band Nickelback, and was released on June 16, 2017. It is the band's first release through record label BMG.[5] Feed the Machine debuted at number five on the US Billboard 200 with 47,000 album-equivalent units.[6]

Background

[edit | edit source]

Following the release of their prior album, No Fixed Address, in 2014, the band cancelled the majority of their touring due to Chad Kroeger needing to have surgery to remove a cyst in his vocal cord.[7] The band subsequently became bogged down in legal battles related to the cancellation of the tour.[7]

The album was released on June 16, 2017.[8][9] Shortly after its release, the band began a 44-city tour on June 23, 2017, in North America, co-headlined with Daughtry, Shaman's Harvest and Cheap Trick as supporting acts.[7]

Promotion and release

[edit | edit source]

The album's first single, "Feed the Machine" was released on February 1, 2017. The second single, "Song on Fire", was released on April 28, 2017.[10] On June 2, 2017, Nickelback made the song "Must Be Nice" available on their YouTube channel[11] and gave it away to those who had pre-ordered the album.[12] "Must Be Nice" was released to American rock radio stations on June 6, 2017, as the album's third official single and second rock single.[13]

Later, it has been certified Silver by the BPI for sales in excess of 60,000 copies.
