Sum 41 tabs.
The title says it all
This album will hands down, rock your face off. I could write one of those long reviews detaling every song and telling you why each song is great but I can "sum" this album up in one sentence.
I'm serious, I'm writing this with one of those special computers that talk to you because because I accidently listened to this album too many times.
.
Obviously if you are a Sum 41 fan, this album could explain why.
I'll rate each of the songs on here. This is one of their greatest albums, because this is the real Sum 41 before Deryck was supposed to get married or before Dave left.
1. Introduction To Destruction
5/10 Not really a song. Kind of cool though.
2. Nothing On My Back
10/10
You'll find yourself singing this song in your sleep because it is so addictive.
3. Never Wake Up
8/10
Who doesn't love a fast song where every word is slurred?
4. Fat Lip
12/10
Chances are this is the song that got you hooked to this band. I know this is the one that brought me to buying this CD.
5. Rhythms
8/10
Catchy but repetitive.
6. Motivation
9/10
Another great one.
7. In Too Deep
10/10
Second best song on this album.
Great music video as well.
8. Summer
8/10
Nothing to do with song, but it's still nice.
9. Handle This
10/10
Sums go soft and succeed
10. Crazy Amanda Bunkface
8/10
Another fast paced song.
11. All She's Got
7/10
Not the song I'd put before Heart Attack
12. Heart Attack
10/10
Gotta love this song. Catchy beat, though can get repetitive.
13. Pain For Pleasure
9/10
Fun to play, nothing more.
who needs POP-PUNK???!!! Sum41 destroys it.
great hooks, music and a great companion for all other die-hard punk music. a funny band with a straightforward down to playing hard music for fans does the trick in "all killer no filler". .
That stupidhead who cusses. It should say this, not badworda-palooza....
OKAY!! You little stupidheads that like Sum41 and Blink182. . let me ask you something. If they aren't PUNK. . . then what the heck are they? They certainly ARE NOT pop, or any of that other stupid type of music. . . and you obviously don't know what the heck you're talking about, so shut up and sit your bottom down. And, no, I'm not saying that all that other stupidity isn't punk or anything. Everyone has their own opinion, right? And, they all stink. But, still. Here's mine. There's no need to go off and make fun, or like Blink182, or Sum41, now is there? Bet they have a heck of alot more talent then you and they're stinkin' trying. They're two whatever bands. The pop generation is going downhill, and punk is rising. THE HECK punk is dead, ya dumb retard. Anyways, I'm out.
I was dissapointed
And though they didn't play the whole song, they did play the solo and the fact that they were able to pull that off got the attention of me. I never gave this band any thought until I saw them cover Metallica's "Master of Puppets" for 2003's MTV Icon. When some kid I knew was giving away CD's he didn't listen to anymore, along with two other CD's, I picked this one just to see what the boys were made of. Well, I was a bit disappointed. It seems that though these guys grew up listening to bands like Judas Priest and Iron Maiden (as mentioned in the song "Fat Lip") and seem to be decently talented players, they are either only capable of writing pop-punk music or they were just focusing on what pleases the masses when making this record.
I was hoping to see what else the lead guitarist could do, but I found out there were hardly any solos on here, and the ones that were there weren't very interesting.
There is a tribute to 80's metal called "Pain for Pleasure", and some rap-rock ("Fat Lip") but other than that everything pretty much sounds the same.
Now, I haven't heard anything else they've done, and I'm not going to judge them on just one album, if you like simple pop-punk then you'll like this album, if not you won't. That is all.
Sum 41 on this album is:
Deryck Whibley (Bizzy D) - Guitar, Lead Vocals
Dave Baksh (Brown Sound) - Guitar, Backup Vocals
Cone McCaslin - Bass
Steve Jocz (Stevo 32) - Drums.
