Nickelback To Release Single Inspired By Pantera Guitarist
Band writes song for "Dimebag" Darrell Abbott

by Laura Katz

Nickelback
LOS ANGELES, CA  [Tuesday Mar.13.2007]  /WMQT.com/ -- Nickelback is releasing another single off of the 2005 album "All The Right Reasons."

The song is called "Side Of A Bullet", and was inspired by the death of Pantera and Damageplan guitarist "Dimebag" Darrell Abbott.

Nickelback frontman Chad Kroeger recently spoke to Launch Radio about the first time he played the track for Darrell's brother, drummer Vinnie Paul.

Kroeger said, "I called Vinnie, I wanted to get his blessing, and I play him the tune and I'm telling him that it's this very PANTERA-inspired riff. He was into it. He was digging it over the phone, and then he says, 'You know what, dude? You gotta write one for Dime.' And I said, 'Well, I wasn't quite sure how to lead into this, but that's what the song's about, and I kind of want to get your blessing on it.'And he's like, 'Brother, of course you have my blessing.'"
