LISTEN: Nickelback Release New Song “Bones for the Crows”

It is the band’s first new piece of material since 2022

Nickelback have revealed a brand new song called “Bones for the Crows.” It is the band’s first new piece of material since the release of their 2022 album Get Rollin’. Stream the official audio below now.

This isn’t Nickelback’s only new release. The band recently joined forces with Don Broco for their joint single “Nightmare Tripping.“ The tune is the title track for Don Broco’s forthcoming studio album, which came out on March 16 through Fearless Records. It followed the previously released singles “Euphoria Live Forever,” “Cellophane,” “Hype Man,” and “Disappear.”

This might not be the only Nickelback collab we see. Back in September, Sammy Hagar shared a video with Nickelback frontman Chad Kroeger and Mötley Crüe drummer Tommy Lee.

“Ok, here we are – the three best singers in rock ‘n’ roll,” Hagar says to the camera as the three embrace. “And you say, ‘What are those three guys doing?’ Well, it’s hard to say – but we’re just getting started.”

The person filming the clip again asked, “What are you guys doing?”

Sammy replied, “It’s hard to say. We’re figuring it out. We’re trying to figure out what we’re doing.”

Anthrax drummer Charlie Benante provided a bit more clarity in his Instagram post. He shared a photo of himself with Hagar and Kroeger in what appeared to be a recording studio, stating: “When you get a call to come over and play drums on a new song that these 2 are doing… you drop whatever it is and go. What a spontaneous thing and so much fun. Thank you both.”

Tommy Lee reposted a clip shot by his wife Brittany Furlan to his Instagram story of himself playing drums in what appears to be a rehearsal space. While the clip is clearly of Tommy behind a kit, Sammy referred to him as a “singer” in the video he shared on his social media. Could Lee also be lending his vocal talents to this new project? In the late 90s and early 00s, Tommy fronted is own band, Methods of Mayhem, and he continues to sing backup vocals for the Crüe today.

Nickelback’s tenth studio album Get Rollin’ arrived on November 18, 2022. It is available on CD, deluxe CD, orange vinyl, limited edition D2C exclusive blue marble vinyl, and digital download. The record debuted at No. 1 on the UK Rock & Metal Albums chart, and No. 4 on the Canadian Albums chart.

The 2023 Canadian Music Hall of Fame inductees and Diamond-certified rock legends were named Billboard’s “Most Successful Rock Band of the Decade” in 2009. Globally celebrated for career-defining and award-winning hits like “How You Remind Me,” “Photograph,” “Far Away,” “Rockstar,” and more, the four-piece—Chad Kroeger, Ryan Peake, Mike Kroeger, and Daniel Adair – remains one of the most commercially successful and influential acts of the past two decades. With worldwide sales surpassing 50 million units, Nickelback ranks among the top-selling artists of all time and was the second best-selling foreign act in the U.S. during the 2000s, behind only The Beatles.

Their inescapable smash “How You Remind Me” was named Billboard’s Top Rock Song of the Decade and was the most-played song on U.S. radio (all formats) in the 2000s, with over 1.2 million spins, according to Nielsen SoundScan. The track has since cemented its place in streaming history, surpassing one billion streams on Spotify and earning Nickelback a coveted spot in the Spotify Billions Club.

Among their many accolades, Nickelback has been recognized as Billboard’s Top Rock Group of the Decade, earned nine Grammy Award nominations, and won three American Music Awards, a World Music Award, a People’s Choice Award, twelve JUNO Awards, and seven MuchMusic Video Awards. They have been inducted into Canada’s Walk of Fame (2007) and the Canadian Music Hall of Fame (2023). Recently, Nickelback’s story took centre stage in 2023 with the release of their critically acclaimed documentary, Hate to Love: Nickelback – now streaming on Netflix.
