WILL AND HARPER and SILVER SIDE UP BY NICKELBACK: Reviewed!
Well done! You made it through another hard week filled with rough days at work and the sniffles coming at you from all angles, be they from bunged up colleagues or flu-fanboy family members. We know you need your weekly dose of the CCCAH to get through the week so here you are. Let’s hoard some lemsip and podcasts and hibernate. We will you in the new year or next week or whenever (disbanding orrr … ?) of course but first, Will and Harper and Silver Side Up get the CCCAH review treatment! A nostalgic childhood album shout and a brand new shiny documentary on Netflix. I guess this episode answers the perennially evocative, grammatically questionable question: where the good times gone? They’re right here Chad. All the stupid fun and all the shit we’ve done indeed.
You can listen to Silver Side Up (in full! What a world 2024 is eh) on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bd3l0ss4cz8
You can watch the YouTube channel Rocked cover the album Silver Side Up for their “Regretting The Past” series. It is not merely the vicious and withering takedown you might expect, but a well thought through and produced review! Also, due credit to the channel for coining the phrase “triage of suckage” when referring to Creed, Limp Bizkit and Nickelback. I am sure this phrase will have increasing cultural cachet in the years to come: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_0Df4LHiSo8
JC Rock and Metal Reviews reviewed Silver Side Up in a very pleasant way but also (intentionally?) made a crazy thumbnail I would like to continue to discuss as the days (and years) go on: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ECKge5_f_YM
My new favourite YouTuber is Mosquito Crucifixion and I consider this review as definitive a guide to the album as it gets: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BGx9UXgSZsQ
You can be charmed by Will and Harper here on Netflix: https://www.netflix.com/watch/81760197
Terry Gross of NPR makes her debut on the CCCAH shownotes?! The best interviewer in the game. A true OG. Here she is talking to Will Ferrell and Harper Steele: https://www.npr.org/2024/10/07/nx-s1-5140106/will-ferrell-harper-steele-transition-road-trip
Will and Harper also spoke to the New York Times, in another fantastic interview. Your humble host is starting to think he should have just pitched all these accompanying press materials in tandem with the documentary because some of these just knock it out of the park: https://www.nytimes.com/2024/09/07/magazine/will-ferrell-harper-steele-interview.html
Director Josh Greenbaum spoke to the awesome IndieWire Filmmaker Toolkit podcast. Technical yet heartfelt chats: https://open.spotify.com/episode/3ZZd3pmdiySCSfrl6bYYnG?si=22259a8c83a248e4
Little White Lies cast their little aspersions here. And hmmm that scoring system sure does seem familiar. Funny that: https://lwlies.com/reviews/will-and-harper/
