Juu Posted December 30, 2002 Share Posted December 30, 2002 [color=deeppink] [size=1]Their songs are pretty catchy, but I really can't get into the band. The band seems a little... poser-like? = \[/color] [/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turkey Posted December 30, 2002 Share Posted December 30, 2002 While I can listen to them, I am still waiting for them to roll some Iron Maiden covers (I loved "Pain for Pleasure). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spikey Posted December 30, 2002 Share Posted December 30, 2002 I don't listen to them as much as I used to, but there were pretty good. The only down side that they had, was there drummer. I didn't like him to much. Though, that's just an opinion. -Spikey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Queen Asuka Posted December 30, 2002 Share Posted December 30, 2002 [color=orangered][size=1]I don't think they are ugly...Actually, I used to have a think for Deryck. He is so CUTESY! Okay anyway, I liked a few of their songs, but then I realized they sound a whole like everyone else. But I still think they are okay. And their music videos are always tons of fun![/color][/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonstar Posted December 31, 2002 Share Posted December 31, 2002 :D Actually I was just listening to them. One of them looks a lot like one of my cousins, it's the nose. Yeh, they're pretty cool. Haven't heard em in a while tho, not on TV or radio anyways. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Semjaza Posted December 31, 2002 Share Posted December 31, 2002 Sum 41 has been around a bit longer than many of the other bands that currently sound like them. The last CD is known to be rushed, and given that they were signed to a bigger label to make it... I think it's easier to understand [i]why[/i] they sounded like that on that CD. I do think the current one (while I don't think it's great or anything), is much better than the last. My friend (who has been into punk for years longer than I) has told me that their other previous stuff was quite different (much like people insist old Blink 182 is much better -- Although I don't like it either way). Whether or not this is true I don't know as I don't care to listen and find out lol. I just don't think they are right out trying to copy anyone, it's just that anything sounding like Blink 182, or other similiar bands, seems to get signed right away and forced into the same routine (if you keep track, they don't all want this to happen, and not all have always sounded like that). They wind up sounding really simliar. Poser isn't a word I'd use. I hate that word though, so I'm biased. You could say the same thing about the Hives, Vines, Strokes, whatever... They all kind of appeared at the same time though (although I heard of the Hivers years before these other ones). They all sound a bit alike, but I wouldn't say they are posers or copying anything. Just kind of the sound a bunch of record companies signed to compete with eachother. Hoping one would beat out the rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperMuffin Posted December 31, 2002 Author Share Posted December 31, 2002 Well thanx for your input but i do think that you cant judge them bye only the stuff ou hear on TV. I mean, my fav songs are the songs that dont have videos and that sound original. Most pepl say that a band or and artist's songs sound a lot alike, even me, until they've really listened to all the songs. I dont mean you should love them but dont diss them!!!! Thanx a lot anyhow! xox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, but I just dont like punk music(Sum 41, Blink 182, none of em. They all sound like a cheap Green Day to me, and I never liked Green Day either. Maybe that's just me, but you know. I dont like none of em). And everytime I hear that song "Fat Lip" I just wanna do a Piccolo and rip my ears off and I also wanna take my bowlin ball and throw it at the TV or at the radio. That track is sooooo annoying. But hey, most peeps like em, they're makin platinum records, so I cant hate on em. I got respect for em, just cant stand the music.

RicoTranzrig Posted December 31, 2002 Share Posted December 31, 2002 [COLOR=darkblue]I used to enjoy their music, but then their new songs just got annoying. Add that with the radio overplay of "Still Waiting" and it's hard not to just hit another preset and listen to something else, waiting for the song to end.[/COLOR] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigCajones Posted December 31, 2002 Share Posted December 31, 2002 Yeah I thought they were pretty good myself too, but Still Waiting reminds me of The Offspring for some reason. I mean I still like them and all, also I'm going to see them in consert next year so I hope they're good. I want to see loads of cool rock bands too!!! Hope they don't sell out here in England.

Semjaza Posted December 31, 2002 Share Posted December 31, 2002 I'd personally never consider Greenday, Blink 182, Sum 41, Offspring or whatever else to be what punk [i]has[/i] to sound like. I love punk, I listen to it everyday and I don't own one thing by any of those bands (well some Greenday I downloaded). Just like every other genre there are dozens of sounds to pick from. I'm sure everyone knows crap that's played on the radio doesn't really reflect what else there is available, and that goes for everything. Still, if people don't like it that's okay with me heh.

Rhys Mayiessen Posted January 1, 2003 Share Posted January 1, 2003 [color=navy]Well [i]I[/i] like Sum 41 SuperMuffin! I really like the songs Fat Lip and Motivation!:D [/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bing Posted January 5, 2003 Share Posted January 5, 2003 [size=1][color=darkblue]Well if you ask me, they are trying to be something that they they aren't. They kind of steal other peoples sounds, and change them a bit. As BigCajones said, the hit 'Still Waiting' sounds alike to The Offspring, especially the pre chorus riff part (I have had this conversation with Break before). There new album, Does This Look Infected?, is supposedly very different, although I haven't heard much from it. They have lost the punk sounds, and 'gothed up' according to the Kerrang magazine. Does anybody have any titles to tracks that I could download?[/color][/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posthumous Posted January 6, 2003 Share Posted January 6, 2003 They're the most hated band in Ajax. I like their music.My fave is [i]"Mr.Amsterdam"[/i].I reccomend that fans should take a listen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Transtic Nerve Posted January 6, 2003 Share Posted January 6, 2003 I watched a clip of them when they were The Sums. They were even worse then... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Semjaza Posted January 6, 2003 Share Posted January 6, 2003 ? Maybe I'm not understanding you (I'm taking it as if you might think that was an older video, hard to tell heh), but they were never actually The Sums. That was a new music video, and it's supposed to be poking fun at all the current "The" bands like The Hives, Strokes and Vines. If not, then I'll take it another way heh.

SuperMuffin Posted January 6, 2003 Author Share Posted January 6, 2003 [color=orange]Well! Very interesting!! I cant believe Transtic Nerve thought that they were actually The Sums!!! Did you ever wonder why they wereon the countdown if it were an older song? Anywho.....my favourite song is Over My Head(Better Off Dead). If your a fan, listen to it!!! And yes, their new CD is quite different. It has a better sound and a new edge to it. Another thing I cant believe is how quick some of you are to judge them! Geez, give them a chance!!! Anywho thanx to those of you who were open minded and respectful to Sum 41 fans!!![/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
9mm Avenger Posted January 7, 2003 Share Posted January 7, 2003 Wow, we have [i]alot[/i] of Sum41 "haterz" here...Wow. I personally, like the band. But, Jinzouningen17, this is a bit to far [quote]And everytime I hear that song "Fat Lip" I just wanna do a Piccolo and rip my ears off and I also wanna take my bowlin ball and throw it at the TV or at the radio. That track is sooooo annoying.[/quote] You can't possible hate a song [i]that[/i] much...Well, maybe you can... Anyhow, Sum41, great band, Canadian, kicks ***, rushed latest album, done.

vegeta rocker Posted January 8, 2003 Share Posted January 8, 2003 well, they have nearly no vocal talent. Other then that, they are okay. I just can't stand to hear them live. That song they did for the spiderman soundtrack was just a disgrace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
