Sum 41
All Killer No Filler
2001
Island Records
By Chris Shipman
First off let me say that I am not a fan of pop punk, and when a band tries to claim they are metal and not pop it makes me even more annoyed.  With the huge hit 'Fat Lip' Sum 41 were thrown into the limelight, a far cry from their native canada playing small venues.  Sum 41 owe their music to a mix of Blink 182, NOFX and Iron Maiden.  There are one or two average songs on here such as 'Motivation' and 'In Too Deep' with their metal-ish solo's but overall this is yet another band jumping on the Pop Punk bandwagon.  Give it up Sum, bring back a real band like Nirvana...

Best Bits: 'In Too Deep'
