Ryan Vikedal: It has been said that he left the band, but he didn't leave, he wanted to stay. Nickelback fired him because in late 2004. Chad, and Mike said that Ryan Vikedal had to leave in December of 2004 because, "He can't stay with us anymore. His drums do not fit the tone for our new album." In early 2005 when Ryan Vikedal got back from the holiday break, he was told he was fired from the band. He said, "The band I once called a family, now isn't a family." Ryan Vikedal made three albums with them, The State, Leader of Men, and Silverside Up.
