i think metal fans should check this album out. i've never been a fan of sum 41 but this album is hard. a couple of songs remind me of vintage metallica.
I've read that these guys actually mature with every album. I don't really listen to them, but when some crappy pop punk band comes on the radio or tv, 2 of my friends always go "I hate the sum 41 type sh*t." I can't really defend them since I don't own any albums, but I know that the epitome of pop punk crap is Good Charlotte, not Sum 41.
hate them for being a slave under MTV's control, but love them for the fact that they can actually play their instruments, unlike some other "bands" (good charlotte? )
