I would like to know that what do you guys think about when a musician talks about politics in public? Like in lyrics, in interviews, etc.
(What is your opinion about musician’s political commitments?)
Thanks

It depends on the artist really. I think Propagandhi are pretty knowledgable about social issues/politics. I'm always interested in what they have to say.

Black Zed wrote:Hey Cone & Tom. Awesome to hear that Deryck is okay. I just wanted to thank you guys. Sum 41 was the band that got me into the harder side of music, punk and hard rock specifically. I absolutely loved Screaming Bloody Murder, and I saw you in June 2012 in Tilburg, the Netherlands, Live and I still think it to be one of the best concerts I've been to.
Do you know anything about the new album? can it be compared to any of your old material or is it all new? What can we expect?
Thx for being a fan. Still pretty early to say what the new album will be like. I'm excited to get back at it though.

My first question is for you, Cone. Back in May, you mentioned finishing up work on new Operation M.D. material; how has the recording process been?
Yup just have to mix the song and it should be out this summer.

Did you already find a new drummer? I started to play the drums 13 years ago because of Stevo. When I first saw him to play, I was just amazed. I will really miss him, but I will never stop loving Sum 41, nad you guys.

Hey guys!!
A fan from The Netherlands here, I am wondering, what are the coolest/most fun bands (or artists) you've ever met while touring? and do you maybe have a story of things that you did together??
Good luck with making the next album! Im already looking forward to it!

For me when I write songs I either write lyrics way later and fit the words into the melody or I already have an idea of the lyrics and I try to base the song around 1 or 2 key lines. Every songs for me comes together differently.

Hi Cone and Tom! I have loved you guys for years, your music has helped me to get through a lot, and I am so excited you're doing this on my birthday.
I was just wondering if you were going to come back to Toronto anytime soon?

Also any ideas when the first supposed single will be out? Loved Cold. Glad to finally know that the new album is coming out, seemed like a long process.
Hey Samueel!
Yeah the new gob record (Apt 13) has a more rocknroll and punk sound than our previous album )Muertos Vivos), It was more of a metal record. The first single Radio Hell will be out sometime in July. Glad you love Cold, I'm sure you'll be stoked on the rest of the record too.
haha it was def a long process, I'm really f'ng stoked it's finally coming out

I have been doing a lot of producing lately. A band called "Sun K" I worked on and I'll be doing their upcoming EP and LP in the next few months. Right now just finishing up a band called "Lebarons". I love producing. Just been keeping busy with that right now.
