Multi-platinum rock band NICKELBACK will be releasing new album, ‘Here and Now’ on November 21st through Roadrunner Records, a Warner Music Group label.
Roadrunner will also release two singles in quick succession in the UK; “Bottoms Up” will be available 2nd October and “When We Stand Together” will emerge 6th November. Nickelback will embark on a new world tour in support of the release in early 2012 with dates to be announced shortly.
Produced by Nickelback and recorded at Mountain View Studios, Vancouver, BC, ‘Here and Now’ is Nickelback’s seventh studio record and is the follow up to 2008’s widely successful platinum-shifting ‘Dark Horse’, which racked up over five million digital single sales and more than 52 million video plays over the course of the album’s campaign.
“We’re four people who love making music, the way we like to make it,” says Nickelback frontman Chad Kroeger. ”We entered the studio this year with a vision, and it all came together. We’re extremely happy with the results, and can’t wait to share them with our fans.”
Roadrunner Records President Jonas Nachsin added, “Through our many years of working with Nickelback, we have always been amazed by the band’s continuing ability to record songs and albums that inspire and thrill millions. After hearing the newest material, we are sure they have done it again, and we are dedicated and eager to promote the band across the globe.”
Nickelback is one the biggest rock bands in the world having sold almost 50 million albums worldwide. Since their 2001 breakthrough hit song “How You Remind Me,” Nickelback has sent 18 singles rocketing onto various Billboard charts.
Nickelback’s now classic ‘All The Right Reasons’ ensured Nickelback an indelible place in rock history, spending a staggering 112 consecutive weeks in the Top 30 of the Billboard Top 200, certified 8-times platinum in the US, 3-times platinum in the UK and having sold more than 11 million copies worldwide, topping charts in four countries. All five of the album’s videos hit No. 1 on VH1′s US playlist, while Nickelback sold more than 12 million single digital downloads and more than 9 million ringtones of the album’s songs, and on the road, Nickelback sold more than 2 million concert tickets over the course of the album cycle.
