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.
