I think they're a pop rock band with the exception on a scatter song.

FUCKING FUCK!!! SUM 41 IS NOT POP-PUNK!!!!!!!!!! I don't even know what retarded imbisil classified that as a "genre" of music, but god-damnit there is no such thing. It makes me so angry when people say that. Pop-punk sounds so fucking gay. It's like "I wanna be gay, but I'm not sure I can do it right". NOOO!! Sum 41 is PUNK and strictly punk!!! You don't hear fuckin bubble-gum pop shit in the background or as part of the music do you?? No, you don't, because it's not pop, or this "pop-punk" bullshit. There's pop and there's punk, no pop-punk.

It all depends on what you personally think "punk" is. Like, i believe old misfits is just straight punk.
In that case, they're hasn't been a real "punk" band in thirty years.

"Pop" music is listened to the majority of people who listen to radio/ watch music television shows. it usually has some kind of hook or catch, lyrically or musically. "punk" is fast and upbeat, to say the least. POPular punk is "punk" that gets major radio/tv airtime. sum 41 fit into this "pop-punk" genre-hybrid only in their HHOP-AKNF days.
to me, true punk is where the artist want to convey a message about something that not many people know about. ex. anti-flag has little excerpts/ facts about the meaning of their songs in their lyric booklets. to me, there are very few bands that are actually straight up "punk".
this is why, to me, that Sum 41 are alternative rock. they have displayed talent in a few different genres, but they are alternative because they are not as popluar as most mainstream rock bands, and their musical stylings have changed several times.

If you want a short answer, you could say they are a rock band, or an alternative rock band.
well said =Dsoft-punker wrote: Genre(s) for each album:
- Half Hour of Power: punk rock, pop punk

To anyone, and with no dis-respect..
HHOP was totally not pop at all. It was alternative punk-metal.
