Dark Horse - шестой студийный альбом канадской рок-группы Nickelback, вышедший 18 ноября 2008 года. В качестве продюсеров альбома выступили музыканты Nickelback и композитор и продюсер Роберт Джон «Матт» Ланж, известный по своим работам с такими коллективами и исполнителями как AC/DC, Брайан Адамс, Def Leppard и Шанайя Твейн, являющийся также бывшим мужем последней.

No Fixed Address crosses a sonic spectrum with pulsating vigor and innovation reflected throughout the diversity of the album's 11 tracks, each embodying the much-loved Nickelback sound propelled to tantalizing and unique new levels. While continuing to lure a broad spectrum of listeners into the trademark Nickelback party-brew of fast-lane indulgences and soaring power ballads, No Fixed Address ultimately proves an equally befitting title for its inspired and boundary-pushing musical map.

All-star albums are usually dodgy affairs, but the over-arching talents - and, more importantly, production experience - of Masters at Work's Kenny Dope and Little Louie Vega keep Nuyorican Soul from being overburdened with cooks. Roy Ayers, George Benson, and Jazzy Jeff contribute prominently to four tracks, and vocalists Jocelyn Brown and India (Vega's wife) are heard as well, but over half of the album is comprised of instrumental tracks - several which include Tito Puente on vibes and timbales, flutist Dave Valentin, trumpeter Charlie Sepulveda, organist/arranger Hilton Ruiz, and trombonist Steve Turre. In keeping with Masters at Work's heritage, most of the album is Latin in feel and jazzy in composition, but with ever-present synths and piano runs that belie their heavy dance heritage. Not that it's a crowded field, but Nuyorican Soul is one of the best all-star dance albums ever recorded.

По звучанию Expect No Mercy является не менее мощным и темпераментным, чем и его предшественники, но также альбом принято считать значительным сдвигом Nazareth в музыкальном отношении, в сторону так называемого AOR.

Deluxe two CD edition includes a version of the album recorded solo and a version recorded with a full orchestra.

Nazareth - название было навеяно строками из песни «The Weight» группы The Band «I pulled into Nazareth, feeling 'bout half past dead»

"....Этот альбом - единственный из всех у группы, на котором нет недостатков и который хочется слушать только полностью, а потом еще и по кругу запускать. Это - удивительная атмосферность, тонкий баланс (голосов, инструментов, настроений) и необыкновенный артистизм! За видимостью страшновато-веселого балагана скрывается глубокая и бесконечная История, меланхоличная и прекрасная, но в ней нет ничего от былой безысходности, подчас сквозившей в творчестве Туомаса и компании. Это - прославление самой Жизни во всех ее ипостасях, со всеми ее горестями. Истинная Поэзия есть даже на краю могилы, главное - научиться распознавать ее......"
