Canadian Punk

Sum 41 is a pop punk band from Ajax, Ontario, Canada. The band was formed from members of several local high school bands, 41 days into the summer of 1996. The band consists of:

Deryck Whibley a.k.a. Bizzy D (lead vocals, guitar)
Jason McCaslin a.k.a. Cone (bass, backing vocals)
Steve Jocz a.k.a. Stevo32 (drums, backing vocals).
Tom Thacker (Touring Member) (guitar, backing vocals).

Sum 41 reached mainstream success with the release of All Killer No Filler, which sold over 2 million copies. The album was made popular due to the hit singles "Fat Lip" and "In Too Deep", the former reaching number 1 on the US Modern Rock charts.

Since signing a record deal with Island Records in 1999, the band has released four studio albums, two live CDs, two live DVDs, over ten singles and sold millions of copies worldwide. As of 2006 the band performed more than 600 times and have become famous for their world tours that are usually more than a year-long.

The members of Sum 41 started out in rival bands in high school. They joke that they met while attending a Hole concert 41 days into the summer of 1996. According to the website Supernova, the band was originally named My Nuts Are Huge Kaspir, and changed their name to Sum 41 for a Supernova show on September 28, 1996. The website also states that they were scouted by Greig Nori of Treble Charger at a Supernova show at the Opera House in Toronto on February 24, 1996. (read more)

Listen Now 

Stormin' through the party like my name is El Nino
while I'm hangin out drinkin in the back of an El Camino
as a kid, was a skid
and no one knew me by name
trashed my own house party
'cause nobody came

well i know im not the one
you thought you knew back in highschool
never going, never showing up when we had to
it's the attention that we crave
don't tell us to behave
I'm sick of always hearing act your age

Sum 41 Lyrics
