I guess that's divorce and misery does to a creative person. Like I said once before on this forum, some creative people make their best work when they're miserable or going through hard times.
That's right, though being miserable is not really the best way of becoming creative though.
It's certainly not the preferred way of doing things. I wouldn't want to be miserable just to write a song in hopes it would be good. But it gives you a different angle to work with as opposed to being happy.
Case in point: Deryck wrote Underclass Hero under the mindset of "making the best thing Sum 41 has ever done". With Screaming Bloody Murder he does not care at all ("we're back, fuck you" mindset) and I think that freed him up creatively big time. It shows on this song.

It kind of gives me a contrast of how to think in life to be successful, either go for what you think is best... Or just fuck everything and give it all.
Interesting.
I think this thread should be turned into a thread about philosophy now because i'm really seeing it in these songs.
God Damn, i can't keep jizzing in my pants, it's costing me a fortune
I want to fly, Can you take me far away, Give me a star to reach for, Tell me what it takes, And I’ll go so high, I’ll go so high, My feet won’t touch the ground, its my wings, That pull the strings, I bought these dreams, That all fall down
listening to it now.
sounds like green day.
now like muse.
now like something completely different!
Fuck this is awesome.
i do not regret this at all, and this further reinforces that this album is going to fucking rock.
Love the bass in the bridge, GO CONE!
Awesome.
you have far too much time on your hands

Like the guitar tone at the beginning of Letterbomb? I agree that that guitar tone reminded me of past tones I've heard, not necessarily of the actual song, if that makes any sense.
