Half Hour Of Power - Sum 41

It would seem that the Canadian punk-pop scene is in terminal decline with the emergence of the incredibly sexy Avril Lasagne and the Blink182-isation of Sum 41. Teenie Boppers no longer listen to prissy boy bands but crave today’s so called punk-pop, culminating in hopelessly under talented public schoolboys forming bands like Busted. Whilst I personally still prefer to listen to Wheatus or Busted over Westlife, a lot of todays punk-pop bands are too interested in creating music that’s going to make them a fast buck rather than carry any sort of message or meaning. Sadly Sum 41 have gone this way too, their most recent two albums have been filled with ...  Read the complete review

Half Hour Of Power is another excellent album by Sum 41 and it can be bought now for just £5 from Amazon which is a very good deal considering its quality. The genre for the album is mainly Indie Rock and Punk Rock and is very similar to the other Sum 41 albums in that the style of music is almost exactly the same, which is what I liked about it. The album was originally released in 2001 and really is excellent. I would though rally recommend this album to any Sum 41 fans because it is just as good as the others! The album features 13 very good tracks and it has a total play time of just over 30 minutes which is relatively short again. This album contains two ...  Read the complete review

Sum-41......a band on the verge of stardom....well actually they already are....but, they aren't like Blink-182 or anything....not yet. And they certainly weren't when this came out!! released at the end of 2000/beginning of 2001 (well at least that's what it said in the booklet!) this wasn't even the bands debut album. contrary to popular opinion, this little musical ditty was actually an Ep.....and a damned good one at that! *HISTORY* The band that came to be known as Sum-41 first met in 1993. But they didn't startthe band then! Oh no...it was another 5 years before the decided to join forces. before that, Cone was in a grunge ...  Read the complete review

I wrote this op not long after I joined dooyoo, and I was never really happy with it (it was way too short - the op has now more than doubled in size). So I decided to rewrite it, even though the chances are it will always just be a “useful” opinion. Sum 41 are a “college rock” group, in the same vein as Blink 182. They’re composed of four young members, who seem to really enjoy what they do, and a whole lot of obnoxious noise. Don’t let that put you off though, there is “gold in them thar hills”, if you give it a chance. Their first offering was the aptly named “Half Hour of Power”. Aptly ...  Read the complete review
