Sum 41's New Track

[Steeb]

Has anyone heard the new Sum 41 track? "We're All To Blame" I think it's called. If not, listen to it.

OK, now listen to "Chop Suey" by SOAD. Hear the difference? No? It's because there isn't any. Am I alone in thinking this?

[ROC]

No, I really can't tell the similarities other than that the lead singer (forgot his name) seems to steal the fast singing that Serj does in most of SOAD's tracks.

[Colly]

No idea, heard it on the Evening Session yesterday though and it sounded pretty good. Zane fucking loved it.

[GRIFT]

Although I like your screen name, and dislike Sum 41... I don't agree. The song sucks and I think that is what it has in common with most Sytem of A Down tracks.

[Stevie B]

Bah, doesn't beat olde Fat Lip, In Too Deep, Motivation, Rhythems and Pain For Pleasure.

I like most Sum 41 songs. Their new one is quite catchy and the video is quite humorous too, as are most Sum 41 videos. Whether people say they suck or not, they enjoy making music and are very fun loving guys. My friend has one of their DVD's and at some parts its hilarious. They show the different takes of the begining of the Still Waiting video with Will Sasso. Funny shit.

The Hell Song video is genius.

Not heard the new song, so I can't comment, but there's one track on the "Does This Look Infected?" album that sounds exactly like POD's "Alive."

[B-Rad]

You've plum gone crazy, as I dont think it sounds anything alike. I just listened to 'em back to back. I think you just don't like Sum 41 and are trying to rip on 'em in some away.

Unrelated, yet related matter: Sum 41 and Good Charlotte going on tour, anyone else might go?

[Steeb]

I can appreciate Sum 41, as a lot of the people I know like them, and I agree, yes they do have a certain sellability, due to their catchiness, but at the same time, it's not like they haven't done it before. Sure, it may not be the exact riff, but say, for example, I changed a few notes in the opening riff to 'Smells Like Teen Spirit'. It's still a rip-off. Even though most riffs and the like have already been made, it's still possible to write a perfectly capable song, without it sounding so much like another popular song, that is can be called a rip-off.

Besdies, SOAD > Sum 41.

BTW, Thanks Grifter. Glad you like the name.

[Guest Angry Baboon]

I like System of a Down.

Sum 41 are nay.

[Guest George]

Sum 41 are pretty damn good (nice guitar, good voice for it's genre, they have charisma, are original [not in the musical way, but in the videos/other crap way]) compared to other similar bands, and they are fun to watch, so.... why not? I like them
