Band of the Week- Sum 41

SUM 41

 Sum 41 is an awesome rock band from Ajax, Ontario, Canada.

They have released 5 albums...

All Killer, No Filler
 Does This Look Infected?
 Chuck
 Underclass Hero
Screaming Bloody Murder

Sum 41 is a band that is somewhat creepy and somewhat gross when it comes to album covers and song names, but fantastic when it comes to song writing. Their music is something special. It's highly addictive and can be both melodious and very punk. This band definitely knows how to have fun.

My favourite songs by Sum 41 are:

No Reason
Underclass Hero
The Bitter End
All Messed Up
Angels With Dirty Faces
Best Of Me
Confusion and Frustration In Modern Times
Count Your Blessings
Dear Father
Hyper-Insomnia-Para-Condroid
I'm Not The One
The Jester
Over My Head (Better Off Dead)
King of Contradiction
March of the Dogs
Open Your Eyes
Walking Disaster
With Me
So Long Goodbye

This band has an amazing and admirable range of song types ranging from punk to lyrical. Pretty much any type of music-lover could listen to a song by them and enjoy it. I find the most enjoyment from listening to their second album Does This Look Infected? The albums Chuck and Underclass Hero are my other favourites.

Like 10 Years, this band is easy on the ears when you need to do work that requires serious thought. In fact, I find that increases my work productivity. The song "A.N.I.C." (a featured "Love Song" on a past CHECK IT OUT!!!) is incredibly amusing and shows the band's immature and childish side.

I suggest that you check out Sum 41! You won't regret it!
