Nickelback gets teased a lot as a band, as the group's name has become synonymous with a past era in music — but that doesn't mean the rock outfit isn't still hugely successful. The group has produced enough massive rock hits that The Best of Nickelback: Volume 1 continues to thrive on the Billboard charts frame after frame. This week, the compilation climbs on every tally on which it appears, and the rockers even reach new peaks on multiple lists at the same time.
The Best of Nickelback hits a new lifetime high point on both the Top Rock Albums and Top Streaming Albums charts this week. It ascends from No. 9 to No. 6 on the former, which tracks the most consumed rock releases in the U.S. The project lands in that position 237 weeks into its tenure on the ranking, which is remarkable, as it's not common for a set to reach new highs after so many years on one list.
The compilation is also gaining ground on platforms like Spotify, which fuels its jump into the top 40 on the Top Streaming Albums chart. On that tally, The Best of Nickelback pushes to No. 38, which also marks a new best placement. The collection has only spent nine weeks on Billboard's ranking of the most streamed albums in the U.S., regardless of genre.
While Nickelback's compilation currently rises higher than ever before, it still stands as the band's lowest-peaking title on the Top Rock Albums chart. The group has scored four No. 1s, and two additional top fives. The Best of Nickelback does claim the honor of being the Canadian outfit's longest-running win, though, by 100 weeks.
The group does score a new career-best placement on the Top Streaming Albums chart this frame, as The Best of Nickelback is the only project from the band to appear on that tally.
The Best of Nickelback also returns to its previously-set high on both the Top Alternative Albums and Top Rock & Alternative Albums charts at the same time it reaches higher than ever on the previous two rosters. This frame, the collection ascends to Nos. 4 and 7 on those rankings, respectively.
The same hit-packed project, which was released in 2013 and features smashes like "How You Remind Me," "Rockstar," and "Someday," nearly reconquers the Top Hard Rock Albums chart, but instead, it holds at No. 2. It also lifts one spot to No. 48 on the Billboard 200, as it approaches 250 weeks on that all-encompassing tally of the most consumed albums of any length, language, or style in the U.S.

'It's speech in the way Doritos are food.' This whole Trevor Noah / Jon Stewart pod is a good listen. But there's a big chunk — starting about 13 minutes in — that turns into a really great chat about how we experience the internet. And Stewart makes a comparison I truly love: We think [social media] is free speech, but it's not speech. It's ultra-processed speech. It's speech in the way that Doritos are food — it's something that has been designed by people in lab coats to get past the parts of your brain that protect you.'

Jeremy Crawford and Chris Perkins Have Jumped Ship From ‘Dungeons & Dragons' to ‘Critical Role'.
Critical Role may have built its years of blockbuster success out of Dungeons & Dragons, but at this point the actual-play streamer's success has grown well beyond the game, from animated series to its own tabletop games. But now it's taken an even bigger step: by recruiting two of the biggest names of contemporary D&D design. This morning Critical Role confirmed that Jeremy Crawford, Wizards of the Coasts' former D&D principle rules designer, and Chris Perkins, former D&D senior story designer, had both joined the company's in-house gaming publisher, Darrington Press, to 'to help further its mission to create shared experiences through rich and imaginative storytelling.' Up until earlier this year, Crawford and Perkins had been two of the most prominent public faces at Wizards of the Coast when it came to D&D. They were stalwarts at the company for decades, and major creative figures who charted the game's design through creation of its 5th edition in 2014, D&D's monumental surge in popularity in the last decade, and then the release of the revised core ruleset for the game to mark its 50th anniversary. Perkins announced his departure from Wizards back in April, with Crawford announcing his own departure shortly after. 'Jeremy and Chris are visionaries,' Travis Willingham, Critical Role co-founder and CEO, said in a statement to press. 'They've guided much of this golden age of TTRPG design and philosophy, helping shape the way we play, connect, and imagine together. Their creativity, passion, and heart will only elevate everything we do at Darrington Press, and we couldn't be more excited for what this means for the Critters and the stories we continue to tell.' There's no details about Crawford and Perkins' current duties at Darrington Press, whether it involves management of the host of current games from the publisher or development of an entirely new one, but it's a wild changing of the guard that will see one of the biggest examples of D&D's massive growth over the past decade take on Wizards of the Coast so directly by taking on two of its most prominent contemporary architects.
