A Decade Worth of Recognition

Fansite Connection Posted by Fansite Connection at 03:04 PM on December 17, 2009 Comments comments (0)

We all know Sum 41 rocked the decade, but its nice to know others are recognizing their awesomeness as well......


First Fat Lip ranks #9 on the the best 100 song in 10 years. The article praises the punk pop anthem, stating:


“Fat Lip” is the best punk song of the last 25 years, the greatest anthem of disenfranchised youth since Suicidal Tendencies’ “Institutionalized,” if not even longer. Of the list of classic punk bands who have written a song better than “Fat Lip,” I’d probably put The Ramones, The Sex Pistols and The Clash in there…and that’s about it.

Next The Sums, come in at #35 on Much Music's 50 Music Moments that Mattered. A quick video snippet tells the story of how the band rose from the suburb to superstars. Avril ranked #10 on the list, with her unconventional (and welcoming) burst on to the scene.

Deryck has posted pictures worthy to drool over. First up we have an inside look into his LA home studio. Next, a 21 guitar salute to his amazing collection.


Check out the studio photos in the forum

And also take a gander at some guitars The Biz has used throughout the years live and in the studio here


In Other Sum41 News the guys have uploaded a new Studio Video.

Deryck talks about the album's direction musically and how its like nothing they've ever done before. The video is backed by some killer piano driven melodies.


Last but not Least, The Sums have added photos from the recent July tour to their officialmyspace. I'm sure these freeze frames were shot by none other than Mr.Robb Dipple. So grab your chips and dunk into the Dip
