SUM 41: Cone Talks Good Things Australian Farewell Tour, Does This Look Infected? and Heaven X Hell

This week, SUM 41 will take the stage for their Australian swan song, going out with a bang on their final ‘Tour of the Setting Sum.’ The Canadian punk rockers will say their goodbyes to Aussie fans at Good Things Festival, along with exclusive headline sideshows across the country!

Dan from the Everblack Podcast talks to Sum 41 bassist Cone about their return to Australia for the Good Things Festival and sideshows as part of their farewell tour, the importance of their album Does This Look Infected, the writing of their latest album Heaven X Hell and much more!

Watch/listen to the interview here: 

A band who never fit in, and never wanted to in the first place, SUM 41 erupted into view at the turn of the century with an unforgettable style spanning high octane pop punk and hard-hitting heavy metal dexterity, casting a staggering shadow over popular culture and cementing themselves as a beacon of millennial domination.

With a Grammy Award nomination, eight studio albums, including their formative album trinity consisting of All Killer No Filler (2001), Does This Look Infected? (2002) and Chuck (2004), as well as their most recent double-LP Heaven :x: Hell, SUM 41 have sold 15 million albums worldwide, featured in an array of major franchises, from Spider-Man through to American Pie and Bring It On, and remain to this day one of the most potent live acts on the scene.
