    Default Sum 41

    What are so bad about these guys?? They're great!! I only heard 3 songs though. They might turn out to be one of my favorite bands but I gotta buy a CD first, and I might just love it. I dont like to say something is a favorite band unless I heard/have their album. Reason why I have a new roster of favorite bands. But back to subject. The three songs I heard. "Grab The Devil And smurf Him Up The Ass" which is an instrumental, and a fine damn one I must say. 5/5. "Fat Lip", which is one of the funnest songs in history. Especially the video. So smurfing funny. Like when they were rapping in the beginning and all of those people just doing crazy things which is normal in a teen life. 5/5. Then comes "Pieces". This has to be one of the best songs I have heard in my life. So quiet and just. It just suits me so well. It's so patient. 5/5. So what Im sayin' is why do so many people hate Sum 41?? They're a great band!! Nonetheless. Just download the video for "Fat Lip". Im sure you'll like it if you're into fun; fast paced rock songs...

    I liked their singles when they came out, too, but when I bought their album I was disappointed to find that they really don't have much depth to their music. I guess it's all personal opinion.

    I liked some of their stuff. Songs like 'Fat Lip' were pretty cool. Never really got into them though, they werent different enough for me.

    They're very generic.

    The rebellious nature of their music is very juvenile. It's so overrated and worn out that the music isn't popular. Not to mention the front man falling in love with a piss poor musician like Avril Lavigne doesn't really help.

    Songs like this make me vomit in my mouth a little.. ;|

    Be-cuz you don't
    Know us at all we laugh when old people fall
    But what would you expect with a conscience so small?
    Heavy metal and mullets it's how we were raised
    Maiden and priest were the gods that we praised

    'Cuz we like havin' fun at other people's expense and
    Cuttin' people down is just a minor offense then
    It's none of your concern, I guess I'll never learn
    I'm sick of bein' told to wait my turn

    Repeat Chorus

    Don't count on me, to let you know when
    Don't count on me, I'll do it again
    Don't count on me, it's the point you're missin'
    Don't count on me, cause I'm not listenin'

    Well I'm a no goodnick lower middle class brat,
    Back packed and I don't give a <img src="/xxx.gif"><img src="/xxx.gif"><img src="/xxx.gif"><img src="/xxx.gif"> about nothin'
    You be standin' on the corner talkin' all that kufuffin
    But you don't make sense from all the gas you be huffin'
    'Cause if the egg don't stain you'll be ringin' off the hook
    You're on the hit list wanted in the telephone book
    I like songs with distortion, to drink in proportion
    The doctor said my mom should have had an abortion.......

    Tie Chorus in with ending

    Waste my time with them
    Casualty of society
    Waste my time again
    Victim of your conformity
    And back down

    Bah. I think their music is pretty run of the mill and lacking anything resembling fine musicianship, their lyrics are juvenile and immature, and they were never very funny. That's just my opinion, and in all honesty I've heard at least one song in the past few months (though I can't remember it or the name) that made me think they may actually be maturing a little as people and musicians, but I still think everything else I've heard is utter crap. If you like it then great, but they're not my cup of tea.

    By the way, there's no such thing as a corny Led Zeppelin instrumental :P.

    You grow out of any meanings of music that's in the Punk gendre.
