Sum 41 is a Canadian rock band that formed in 1996 in Ajax, Ontario. The band is known for its blend of punk rock, pop punk, and alternative rock, often characterized by catchy hooks, energetic performances, and a mix of serious and humorous lyrics.

Key Points About Sum 41:

Musical Style: Sum 41's sound is influenced by punk rock, metal, and pop. Over time, their music evolved to include more complex and heavier elements, especially in albums like Chuck (2004) and 13 Voices (2016), which showed a more mature and darker tone.
