I'm surprised nobody has said these guys for the 2010's!

To get back to Nickelback, here is basically how it went for them.
Spring 2002 - When "How You Remind Me" came out, people actually had more of a favorable opinion of them. That song is undeniably catchy and was accessible by many stations from Rock, Alternative, Pop, Hot AC. I love that song and is my favorite by them! The only complaint anyone had was that they said it got overplayed on the radio, but no disdain on the band themselves.
Fall 2003 - Their next major hit, "Someday" got a similar reaction, except I think people got more tired of hearing them at this point than when "How You Remind Me" was out. The fact that this song was still frequently played on the radio in the Summer of 2004 didn't help either. Still not too much disdain for the band yet, but people were getting slightly annoyed by how often they were on the radio.
Fall 2005, through to Summer 2007 - Their third album had the most hits ("Photograph", "Savin' Me," "Far Away," and Rockstar"), but at the same time, this marks the point where people really turned on them. Especially by the point when the last release from this album, "Rockstar," came out. By the time this album came out, Rock and Alternative stations already lost interest in them and even though they were frequently played on Pop and Hot AC radio, people were really against them at this point.
2008 / 2009 - They were definitely very much disliked when this album came out and even though there were about 4 hits on this album, they were the last songs by them to receive any Pop or Hot AC airplay. After 2010, not much has been heard from from Nickelback.

There was an article that I read online which revealed what the most hated band of each decade since the 1960s is and not counting the current Decade. So apparently The Monkees were arguably the most hated band of the 1960s which surprised me, In fact they were apparently called a rip-off of The Beatles for some odd reason. And it appears that the most hated band of the 1970s was The Ramones. Now these are the bands from each Decade since the 1980s that I know for a fact are still heavily criticized by Music critics even to this Day. The 1980s - Duran Duran (I really like this band but I can kind of understand why they were and are still heavily criticized.) The 1990s - Limp Bizkit (Yeah I honestly never cared for this band anyways.) The 2000s - Nickelback (Arguably the most hated mainstream rock band of all time.) The 2010s - AJR (This band was arguably more hated than Imagine Dragons was during this decade.) Is Duran Duran critically hated? I thought at least "Rio" and "Hungry Like the Wolf" are seen as 80s classics? "Hungry" is on the Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Songs of All-Time List that came out recently. Critics came around big-time on Duran Duran. I don't think they're critically disliked at all anymore and are thought of as an important band of the 80s and early 90s. For the '70s, it's probably either Grand Funk Railroad, who have already been brought up, or Styx or Emerson, Lake & Palmer. ELP has never had the critical re-evaluation that a lot of their prog peers have gotten in the last 25 or so years, but they're probably the most well regarded of these three bands now. KISS might also be in there too, but that one really depends on the critic.

I’m surprised not many are emphasizing on Maroon 5 in the 2010s. Yes, the band was getting hits in the mid-late 00s, but they were very under the radar and not as polarizing.
However, after “Moves Like Jagger” and the “Overexposed/V” eras, their music really took a drastic turn for the worst. The public backlash against them mounted with the super bowl halftime show and that was kind of a nail in the coffin for them. That’s at least what the anti-Maroon 5ers say. They don’t have it as bad as Nickelback though. Their earlier hits like “She Will Be Loved” and “This Love” have aged really well, giving them a cushion to lean on that Nickelback doesn’t really have.
