About
All the Right Reasons is the fifth album to be released in the market by sensational rock band Nickelback. The exceptional writing attitude and rhthym of their songs continue to attract enthusiasts of the rock scene to listen to them. This album was officially released in October 4, 2005, under the label Roadrunner Records.
In this album, the band experiments in such a way that they included some sensitive ballads such as "Savin' Me" and chart-busting hit "Photograph", where the band dealt with the past times and friendships. Hard-rock songs such as "Fight for All the Wrong Reasons" and "Follow You Home" charges towards the airwaves and proves that Nickelback again made a brave and frank collection of songs. Contradictory with one of the track's title ("Fight for All the Wrong Reasons"), the songs are inspired by the band's belief that making music should come with "all the right reasons".

Trivia
- Group leader and at the same time vocalist of the band, Chad Kroeger decided to make use of lyrics that talked more about sexual intimacy rather than his father's deserted legend.
- In the upcoming 34th American Music Awards, All The Right Reasons is nominated in the category Favorite Pop/Rock Album. The Awards will be held on November 2006.
- The single "Next Contestant" was already composed and being perfomed even before the release of the album. It was sort of a test drive for the song, and it yielded a good result.

Reviews
- All the tracks in this album gives the customer all the right reasons to keep it playing. It was sensitive, passionate and nostalgic but not in a boring way. The band still had their trademark of being a post-grunge band and the listeners obviously appreciated it. -Vheliefish 22:22, 28 October 2006 (PDT)
