Sum 41 – “God Save Us All (Death to Pop)” Video

Pretty generic. My hopes for this album are fading...

 

That cringeworthy opening statement couldn't be more wrong

 

I don't know what it is about seeing a person in a wheelchair getting to crowd surf that immediately puts a smile on my face, but I hope it never stops.

 

I'm a staunch defender of this band - I loved Underclass Hero and thought Screaming Bloody Murder is their best to date - but by god what were they thinking with this record? I hope there are some good songs on this, the last two (and the first, to an extent) are pretty forgettable.

 

The pop statement is something I might've agreed with... Like in 1999 lol.

 

i personally like the vibe of the songs so far

 

Surely I'm not the only one here who has loved all 3 songs they've put out so far?

 

Does anyone know when their PledgeMusic backers get the album?

 

October 7 at the latest. ;)

 

Ok but doesn't Deryck write songs for 5SOS now?

 

The song is kind of boring but happy to see these guys are still around.

Also sick of those annoying lyrics all over this and all videos nowadays.

 

I've turned it off after the opening statement. Not only is it ignorant in regards to pop music, which is especially ironic coming from a POP Punk band, but also towards all other genres, including Hip Hop, which has been kind to them over the years. What a horrible joke this comeback is turning into.

The new songs suck too.

 

see my comment above yours

 

I've really enjoyed all 3, best they have been to me since Chuck.

 

Song isn't awful but what purpose did the opening words serve?

"Let's make sure to alienate everyone except angsty teens"
"Yeah!"

 

I'm not even sure that works anymore. In my experience many teens have more diverse tastes now, due to YouTube and streaming. When I was at an All Time Low show last year, the pre-show song that received the best crowd reaction was by Kanye West and Jay-Z, and the demographic at that show definitely fell under "angsty teen".

 

This is a bad song and that opening statement is pretty terrible.
