Musical style
"San Quentin" is described as a hard rock and heavy metal song[2][3][4] with elements of metalcore.[5]
Background
During an interview with WRAT radio station, lead vocalist Chad Kroeger spoke about the lyrical inspiration for “San Quentin”, saying: “I met the San Quentin prison warden at a party. And I couldn’t believe how young he was. I was, like, ‘There’s just no way that you’re the warden of San Quentin,’ and everyone was, like, ‘Yup. He is.’ Guy Fieri’s a buddy of mine, and I was at his birthday party a few years back. And the entire time we were talking, I’m speaking to this guy, but in my head all I could think about was, ‘I’m gonna write a song called 'San Quentin’. That’s it.‘ And I stuck it in my notes in my phone. And then once the riff was down, I think I screamed out this line, 'Can somebody please keep me the hell out of San Quentin?’ And we just took it from there.”[6][7]
Release
On August 26, 2022, students attending school at Simon Fraser University in Burnaby, British Columbia received a newsletter stating they were invited to attend and participate in a video shoot Nickelback will be hosting on August 30, 2022 for their forthcoming single, outside the Convocation Mall on campus.[8][9][10][11]
