Pete's Log: SUM 41

Entry #996, (Music)
(posted when I was 22 years old.)

SUM 41 -- another band to look into. I saw the video for their song "FAT LIP" on MTV last night. I like it when MTV actually plays music. They have a punkish sound, kinda an Offspring sound, I thought, but with a definite influence of hiphop and such. The video was also quite fun. Very punk appeal. And at one point they showed this cute girl having all her hair (except her bangs) shaven off. I found evidence on CDNOW llinking SUM 41 to Blink 182 and to MxPx and those are bands I like. Unfortunately, I've forbidden myself from buying any new CDs until after this summer. I'll just have to add them to the list.

Another punkish band I discovered on MTV last night: New Found Glory. W was not as impressed by their song as by the SUM 41 song I saw, but they did seem like they were worth looking into at some point.
