A band composed of Deryck Whibley (Bizzy D) on vocals, piano(occasionally, and rythmn guitar, Cone on bass a few times on vocals, Dave Baksh (Brownsound or Hot Chocolate) on guitar and vocals, and Steve Jocz (Stevo32) on drums and a few vocals. They were formed 41 days into the summer creating the band name Sum41.
They are not the greatest band on earth, but they are pretty good. They continue to become better with each album and more serious. They are not punk, but the y have been slowly moving into a more political type of band from their early days as a blabbermouth brat SoCal band from Ajax, Ontario.
Brownsound is a very good guitarist in my opinion, with raging solos, and Stevo32 can spaz out on the drums for what seems hours. Cone seems to be a good bassist on the solos sometimes given to him, and Bizzy D does well on backup guitar and can sing well on actual singable songs.
They experiment with different styles at times and have full songs of just instrumental or mainly instrumental.
They are wrongly placed in alternative and as punk. They are really neither- they have their own style which is hard to label since they have changed so quickly within their four albums (Half Hour of Power, All Killer No Filler, Does This Look Infected, and Chuck). To prove this furthermore, they made a documentary in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and in doing so almost died. Not typical of your SoCal bands like Good Charlotte and Simple Plan.
They do not deserve all the fans that they have which do not really recognize how well they can play and just like them for their looks. They aren't that good-looking anyway and caring about a band just for their looks is shallow. Sum41 doesn't deserve that. They are too great for that.

Girl: OMG! Cone is sooo hot! I love sum41!
Me: He's not really that- augh. Anyway, what's your favorite song?
Girl: Umm, I don't really know any.
Me: That's sad. I am so sad to share the same music genre as you, you shallow, sad little girl.

Sum 41 Rocks okay. All you Sum 41 haters can kiss my ass. They never said they were punk and I don't think they are. If you really liked Sum 41 you would know that they think they are rock. One of their songs even says that. They are not posers, you Sum 41 haters are the real posers. Yeah some of the Sum 41 fans are fags but if you listen to the lyrics and like their songs and not their image then you're cool and a true Sum 41 fan.

Sum 41 is a band that, throughout their career, have played many genres on their different cds, though by their lifestyle and antics within and outside of the band, i would call them a punk band. if goign by music solely i would say that a majority of their music is pop punk due to the musical structure, though the lyrics are generally pure punk. Sum 41 are my favourite band, and this is me saying what i think to be true and not discriminating or being biast to either sdie of the argument over genre
Sum 41's videos are punk, sum 41s lyrics are punk, sum 41s everything is punk, so dont tell me that they,a s peopel, are not fuckign punk
Don't count on me, CAUSE IM NOT LISNING-fatlip
i dont wanna waste my time, become another casualty of society, dont wanna fall in line, become another victim of the conformity, BACK DOWN-fatlip
coz we're doing fine
and we don't need to be told
and we're doing fine
coz we won't give you control
and we don't need anything from you
and we'll be just fine
coz we won't be bought and sold
just like you -subject to change (b-side track)
