History
1996–1998: Formative years
Sum 41 was formed by guitarist Deryck Whibley, drummer Steve Jocz, bassist Richard Roy and vocalist Jon Marshall.[2][3] They were originally called Kaspir.[4][5] The band is from Ajax, Ontario.[3][5] the band was formed as a NOFX covers band.[5] The group members decided to change the band's name to Supernova while on tour on September 28, 1996, which happened to be the 41st day of their summer vacation, leading them to change their name to Sum 41.[4][5]
The band met their manager and producer Greig Nori in 1996 at their first show as Sum 41.[5] Whibley convinced Nori to watch his band perform.[5] Nori is also the lead vocalist of the band Treble Charger.[5] Nori was not impressed with the band's songs or original vocalist and advised Whibley to be the vocalist, causing Marshall to leave.[2][5] With Whibley moving to lead vocals and rhythm guitar, Dave Baksh joined as lead guitarist.[2] Early on; the band was involved in a near-fatal car accident, resulting in Roy leaving the band.[2] Mark Spicoluk briefly filled in the position before Jason McCaslin was brought in on bass to complete the new line-up.[6] In 1996, the band opened for Len.[5]
1998–2000: Half Hour of Power
In 1998, the band recorded a demo tape on compact cassette which they sent to record companies in the hope of getting a recording contract.[5]
From 1999 to 2000, the band recorded several new songs.[7][8] The Introduction to Destruction and later the Cross The T's and Gouge Your I's DVDs both contain the self-recorded footage, which show the band performing a dance to "Makes No Difference" in front of a theatre.[7][8]
After signing with Island Records in 1999, Sum 41's first EP, Half Hour of Power, was released on June 27, 2000.[9] The first single released by the band was "Makes No Difference", which had two different music videos.[10] The first video was put together using the video clips sent to the record label, and the second showed the band performing at a house party.[11] The album was certified platinum in Canada.[12]
2001–2003: All Killer No Filler and Does This Look Infected?
Sum 41's first full-length album, All Killer No Filler, was released on May 8, 2001.[13] The album was very successful; it was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America in August 2001.[14] "Fat Lip", the album's first single,[15][16][17] achieved significant chart and commercial success; it topped the US Billboard Modern Rock Tracks chart as well as many other charts around the world.[18][19] The song remains the band's most successful to date. After "Fat Lip", two more singles were released from the album: "In Too Deep" and "Motivation".[15][13][20] "In Too Deep" peaked at number 10 on the Modern Rock Tracks chart, while "Motivation" peaked at number 24 on the same chart.[21][22] The album peaked at number 13 on the Billboard 200 chart and at number nine on the Top Canadian Albums chart.[23] The album was a commercial success, and was certified Platinum in the United States, UK, and triple platinum in Canada[24][25] The album's name was taken from the initial reaction from Joe Mcgrath, an engineer working in the studio.[26]
The success of the album brought the band touring offers with mainstream bands such as Blink-182 and The Offspring.[27] The band spent much of 2001 touring; the group played over 300 concerts that year before returning to the studio to record another album.[28] The band took part in the 2001 Vans Warped Tour[29] and the Campus Invasion Tour.[30] In April 2002, the band went on a month long tour called the Sum Like it Loud Tour.[28] In October 2002, the band went on a month long tour called the Sum on Your Face Tour.[31]
On November 26, 2002, the group released its second album, Does This Look Infected?[32] The special edition came with a DVD, Cross The T's and Gouge Your I's. Whibley said of the album: "We don't want to make another record that sounds like the last record, I hate when bands repeat albums.[33] The album featured a harder and edgier sound, and the lyrics featured a more serious outlook.[34] The album peaked at number 32 on the Billboard 200 chart and at number eight on the Top Canadian Albums chart.[35][36] It was certified Platinum in Canada and gold in the United States, but was not as successful as its predecessor.[37][38]
The first single released from the album was "Still Waiting",[39] which peaked at number seven on the Modern Rock Tracks chart.[39][21][40] The second single, "The Hell Song" peaked at number 13 on the chart.[21] "The Hell Song"'s music video depicted the band members using dolls with their pictures on them and others, such as Korn, Kiss, AC/DC, Snoop Dogg, Destiny's Child, Ozzy Osbourne, Sharon Osbourne, and Pamela Anderson.[41] The third single, "Over My Head (Better Off Dead)", had a video released exclusively in Canada and on the band's website, featuring live shots of the band.[42] The video also appeared on the group's live DVD, Sake Bombs And Happy Endings (2003), as a bonus feature.[43] The band again began a long tour to promote the album before recording the group's third studio album.[15]
2004–2005: Chuck
In late May 2004, the band traveled to the Democratic Republic of Congo with War Child Canada, a branch of the British charity organization War Child, to document the country's civil war.[44] Days after arriving, fighting broke out in Bukavu near the hotel where the band was staying.[45][46] The band waited for the fighting to die down, but it did not.[47] A UN peacekeeper, Charles "Chuck" Pelletier, called for armoured carriers to take the hotel's occupants out of the hot zone.[47] After nearly twenty hours, the carriers arrived, and the band and forty other civilians were taken to safety.[47]
In honor of Pelletier, Sum 41 named its next album Chuck; it was released on October 12, 2004.[46][49] The album charted at number 10 on the Billboard 200 chart.[50] It also peaked at number two on the Canadian Albums chart.[51] The album received positive reviews, and was certified Platinum in Canada and gold in the United States.[52][53]
The first single from the album was "We're All To Blame",[54] which peaked at number 10 on the Alternative Airplay chart.[55] It was followed by "Pieces",[56] which reached the top of the charts in Canada.[57][58][59] The next single was "Some Say", released only in Canada and Japan. The last single from the record was "No Reason", released at the same time as "Some Say", but with no music video. It was released only in Europe and the US, where it reached number 16 on the Billboard Modern Rock chart.[60] In 2004, the band went on a co-headlining North American Tour with Good Charlotte.[61] The band joined Mötley Crüe on their Carnival of Sin summer tour as an opening act.[62]
A documentary of the band's experience in Congo was made into a film called Rocked: Sum 41 in Congo and later aired on MTV.[63][64][65] War Child released it on DVD on November 29, 2005, in the United States and Canada.[63][64][65] Following the album's release, the band went on a tour with Good Charlotte until 2006.[66] On December 21, 2005, Sum 41 released a live album, Happy Live Surprise, in Japan.[67][68] The CD contained a full concert recorded live in London, Ontario[68] and was produced by Whibley. The same CD was released March 7, 2006, in Canada under the name Go Chuck Yourself.[67][68] The band played videos before its set that were deemed "unsuitable for children".[69] Controversy arose over some of the videos' violent content.[69]
2006–2008: Baksh's departure and Underclass Hero
On May 10, 2006, Dave Baksh announced in a statement through his management company that he was leaving Sum 41 to work with his new band, Brown Brigade, which has a more "classic metal" sound.[5][70] Baksh cited "creative differences" as the reason for his departure, but claimed that he was still on good terms with the band.[70] The next day, Whibley confirmed Baksh's departure and announced that the band would only replace him with a touring guitarist, who would not have any decision-making power in the band or be in videos, photo shoots, or albums.[71] The band hired Gob frontman and guitarist Tom Thacker to replace Baksh.[5][71]
Recording of the band's fourth studio album, Underclass Hero, began on November 8, 2006, and finished on March 14, 2007. On April 17, 2007, the band released a song on iTunes, "March of the Dogs".[72] Although not a single, the band released it early because, according to Whibley, "the record [wouldn't] be out until the summer". Whibley was threatened with deportation for the song, because he metaphorically "killed the president" on it.[73]
The album, backed by the first single and title track, "Underclass Hero", was released on July 24, 2007.[74] Despite mixed reviews,[75] the album was a commercial success, debuting at number seven on the Billboard 200[50] and at number one on the Billboard Rock Albums chart, the band's highest US chart position to date.[76] It also peaked at number one on the Canadian Albums chart[51] and on the Alternative Albums chart.[77] Two more singles were released from the album, "Walking Disaster"[78] and "With Me". "With Me" especially found radio success by 2008. Underclass Hero was certified Platinum in Canada.[79] On September 15, 2007, the band headlined the House of Blues with Yellowcard.[80]
In October 2007, the band began the Strength in Numbers Tour, a tour of Canada with Canadian band Finger Eleven; Die Mannequin opened each of Sum 41's shows.[81] During the tour, Whibley sustained a herniated disk.[81] As a result, the group cancelled the rest of its shows.[81] After Whibley recovered from his injury, the band continued the Underclass Hero tour in March 2008 and toured until early July, when the group began preparation for its next album.[82]
Sum 41 released a greatest hits album in Japan titled 8 Years of Blood, Sake and Tears on November 26, 2008. The album included a previously unreleased song, "Always", and a DVD, which contains each of the band's music videos.[83] On March 17, the band released the worldwide version of the album titled All the Good Shit.[84][85]
2009–2012: Thacker's official arrival and Screaming Bloody Murder
In July 2009, the band was an opening act for The Offspring on their Shit is Fucked Up Tour.[86] Drummer Steve Jocz confirmed that Tom Thacker was now an official member of Sum 41, and would take part in the writing and recording.[87] On November 5, 2009, Whibley posted a blog on the band's MySpace page announcing Gil Norton as the producer of the band's upcoming album, also saying that 20 songs were already written for the album.[88] In an interview with Tom Thacker, some working titles for songs for the new album were confirmed, including "Panic Attack", "Jessica Kill" and "Like Everyone Else".[89] Pre-production for the new album took 13 days in December 2009, with the band officially entering the studio to begin recording at Perfect Sound Studios on January 26, 2010. The new studio album, titled Screaming Bloody Murder,[90] was expected for a late 2010 release, but was delayed until early 2011.[91] The band finished recording on June 24, 2010, just before joining the 2010 Warped Tour. While the group was on the tour, the new album entered the post-production stages of mixing and mastering.[91] A new song called "Skumfuk" was leaked online on July 6, 2010.[92] In an interview with Canoe.ca, Steve Jocz said that while producer Gil Norton was originally hired to engineer the new album, he was only around for a week and Sum 41 self-produced the record.[91] From October to November 2010, the band headlined the Eastpak Antidote Tour.[93]
The first single from the album, "Screaming Bloody Murder", was released on February 7, 2011, in the United States.[94][95] The song had its worldwide premiere on January 14, 2011, on Windsor, Ontario radio station 89X.[96] The album Screaming Bloody Murder was released in Japan on April 6, 2011.[97] On February 28, 2011, a stream of "Blood in My Eyes", another new song from the album, was released for free listening on Alternative Press.[98] On May 28, 2011, Sum 41 performed a live set for Guitar Center Sessions on DirecTV. The episode included an interview with program host Nic Harcourt.[99]
"Baby You Don't Wanna Know" was released as the album's second single.[100] The band shot a music video for the song during a day off in Germany.[101] A music video was also produced for the first single, "Screaming Bloody Murder", but it was left unreleased due to its content and difficulties with the label.[102]
On August 9, 2011, Sum 41 released the live album Live at the House of Blues, Cleveland 9.15.07 – a live recording of a show that took place on September 15, 2007, in Cleveland, Ohio, while the band was touring its previous album Underclass Hero.[103] A week later when the band was touring the US as part of the Vans Warped Tour, making up for dates the group had to cancel on its 2010 tour, they were forced once again to cancel all remaining dates, when Whibley re-injured his back after playing three shows.[104] It was announced on the band's official website that they would be postponing indefinitely all upcoming tour dates for 2011 while Whibley underwent treatment. In an interview with Jason McCaslin that took place in Oppikoppi, he said that "it's safe to say Sum 41 won't have another album out for at least the next two years".[105] In 2011 Sum 41 was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Hard Rock/Metal Performance for the song "Blood in My Eyes", but lost to the Foo Fighters.[106]

Side projects and collaborations
Before the release of Half Hour of Power, and up until the departures of Dave Baksh and Steve Jocz, Sum 41 occasionally played as an alter ego 1980s heavy metal band called Pain for Pleasure during shows.[159] The band appeared in Sum 41's music videos for "Fat Lip" and "We're All to Blame" and had at least one song on each of the band's first three releases.[160] The group's best known song under the Pain for Pleasure moniker is the song of the same name from All Killer No Filler, a track that remains the band's staple during live shows and features drummer Steve Jocz on lead vocals. During the Don't Call It a Sum-Back Tour in 2017, Pain for Pleasure appeared performing the song at the end of their show with guitarist Tom Thacker replacing Jocz as the vocalist.[159]
Sum 41 has collaborated with many other artists, both live and in the studio, including: Tenacious D,[161] Ludacris,[162] Iggy Pop,[163] Pennywise,[164] Bowling for Soup,[164] Unwritten Law,[165] Mike Shinoda,[166] Treble Charger,[167] Gob,[165] Tommy Lee,[168][169] Rob Halford,[169] Kerry King,[5] Metallica,[170] Ja Rule,[171] and Nothing,Nowhere.[172]
Shortly after touring for Does This Look Infected?, Sum 41 was recruited by Iggy Pop for his album, Skull Ring.[163] Whibley co-wrote the first single from the album, "Little Know It All", and joined Iggy on the Late Show with David Letterman to promote it.[163] Following the band's show of September 11, 2005, in Quebec City, Quebec, the band went on a touring hiatus, although on April 17, 2006, Sum 41 played at a tribute to Iggy Pop, joining Iggy on stage for "Little Know It All" and "Lust For Life".[173]
During the band's 2006 touring hiatus, Whibley focused on his producing career: he produced two songs for Avril Lavigne's album The Best Damn Thing.[174] Jocz recorded his first video as director for a Canadian band, The Midway State,[175] and McCaslin started a side project with Todd Morse of H2O and Juliette and the Licks.[176] McCaslin's two-person band, named The Operation M.D., released its debut album, We Have an Emergency, in early 2007.[176][177] As well as playing bass, keyboards, and acoustic guitar, McCaslin contributed backing vocals as well as leading vocals on three songs. The album was co-produced and mixed by Whibley. The group's video for its first single, "Sayonara", was directed by Jocz.[177] In 2022, Whibley was featured on the Simple Plan single, "Ruin My Life".[178]
Musical style, influences and legacy
Sum 41 has been described as pop punk,[15][143][177][179][180][181] skate punk,[179][182][183][184][185] punk rock,[177][186][187][188] heavy metal,[182][186][189][190] alternative metal,[191][192][193] alternative rock,[177][194] melodic hardcore,[195][196] thrash metal,[197][198] punk metal,[199] nu metal,[200] arena rock,[201] hard rock,[202] and pop rock.[182] The band also uses elements of rap, like on the song Fat Lip.[203][204]
In a November 2004 interview, Deryck Whibley said: "We don't even consider ourselves punk. We're just a rock band. We want to do something different. We want to do our own thing. That's how music has always been to us."[205] Dave Baksh reiterated Whibley's claims, stating "We just call ourselves rock... It's easier to say than punk, especially around all these fuckin' kids that think they know what punk is. Something that was based on not having any rules has probably one of the strictest fucking rule books in the world."[206]
The band's style has been disputed by fans because of the complex combination of different musical styles and the more mature, serious, and heavy sound on later albums.[46] The band's EP Half Hour of Power is described as pop punk[207][208][209] and skate punk.[183][208] All Killer No Filler was described as pop punk[15][210][211] and skate punk[212] (except for "Pain for Pleasure", which is purely heavy metal).[213] Does This Look Infected? has been described as punk rock,[214] pop punk[210] melodic hardcore,[215] horror punk,[215] and heavy metal.[215] Chuck was getting heavier opting out the original pop punk sound with a heavy metal sound, but the band kept in touch with its punk rock and melodic hardcore roots, which created an even more mature sound than the group's previous effort.[198][213] Critics have described Underclass Hero as a revival of the band's pop punk style.[216] Screaming Bloody Murder and 13 Voices saw the band return to some alternative metal influences.[217] Some of the band's songs contain political-social commentary; "Still Waiting" is an anti-George W. Bush and anti-Iraq War song,[218] "The Jester" and "March of the Dogs" also are critical of Bush,[219] "45 (A Matter of Time)" is critical of President Donald Trump,[220] "Underclass Hero" is a song about class struggle, and "Dear Father" is about Whibley's absent father.[221]
Sum 41's influences include Weezer,[222] Slayer,[223] the Police,[222] Devo,[222] Megadeth,[224] Pennywise,[225][226] Rancid,[226][227] No Use for a Name,[228] the Vandals,[229] Anthrax,[230][224] Carcass,[230] Dio,[228] Judas Priest,[225][227][231] Foo Fighters,[232] Green Day,[229] NOFX,[227][47][233][234] Lagwagon,[225] Face to Face,[225] Nirvana,[222][235] the Beatles[232] (including John Lennon's solo work),[236] Elvis Costello,[233] Beastie Boys,[233][47] Run–D.M.C.,[47] Rob Base and DJ E-Z Rock,[47] Metallica,[47][233] Guns N' Roses,[47] and Iron Maiden.[47]
Sum 41 has inspired modern artists such as 5 Seconds of Summer,[237] Seaway,[238] Dune Rats,[239] Marshmello,[240] PVRIS,[241][242] Trash Boat,[243] Neck Deep,[244] the Vamps,[245] Tonight Alive,[246] Bully[247] Waterparks,[243] and ROAM.[243]
