On, May 11, 2006, Dave Baksh (a.k.a. Dave Brownsound) announced in a statement through his management company that he was leaving Sum 41 to work with his new band Brown Brigade. Baksh's departure from the band was said to be due to artistic differences, and his goal to play music with more of a classical metal sound. [5][6]

On May 12th, Deryck made the first official comment on the subject on the official message board post addressing Dave's departure.

Cone has said on the band's Q&A section that "You can probably expect a new single next spring and the album next summer. Thats the plan and hopefully that happens."


Really bad news.
 
I didn't mind some of their stuff but they always hinted at old school metal undertones in some of their riffs.
 
Well that's good I guess. I mean I have nothing against most American punk rock. I love Offspring (yes, without the "The") and Bad Religion. But Blink 182 or Sum 41? Hell no.
was blink 182 punk ? maybe the old green day style of newer garage punk. but soon they were watered down mtv fodder.
i still like offspring, bad religion, rancid, sick of it all, comeback kid and the even older stuff like dead kennedys, flipper, black flag, circle jerks, fear, misfits.
 
The only cool thing sum 41 ever did was that little "Pain for Pleasure" song.
And even that seemed like it was too mocking.
 
Ok I just remembered that they incorporated Rodney Dangerfield's "Triple Lindy" dive in a music video. So thats 2 cool things.

Old Blink 182 is good, like when their first album came out. Green Day is the shit too.

Come on Mosher, you've gotta be taking the piss now :rolleyes:
Blink 182 and all the other shit MTV whore bands that followed them should be lined up and shot. By Lemmy.
 
Since we all like punk maybe Anthrax will play with something other than a wanna be thrash band who couldn't sing their way out of a paper bag. :rock:
