Nickelback ban 'raunchy' track from radio

Nickelback have banned album track 'Something In Your Mouth' from being played on British radio.

The song, which features lyrics about a "hottie" with a "million dollar body", was pulled by the group's label Roadrunner over fears that it may offend British audiences, reports Music News.

Kerrang! Radio DJs Christian Stevenson and Loz mocked the ban, claiming that only "dirty minded" listeners would be offended.

"We think it's a great track and it doesn't offend me," said Loz.

One listener commented: "A little too racy for British radio? Sorry, but the lyrics in this song probably aren't even as 'racy' as songs by bands such as the Sugababes or Girls Aloud who sing about not only sex, but promote promiscuity to a much younger audience."

'Something In Your Mouth' features on the Canadian band's new Dark Horse LP.
