As 2712 said, I don't think it's great, but not that bad, I'm sure a lot of people don't even know Sum 41 released a new record, anyway it's really not important

well, it's not very good, but with almost no promotion at all, it is not that bad ... let's see what the video will do to with the sales, Sum 41 don't have that much a chance to sell a lot of copies when the only way of letting people know in IR's heads is to tweet about it on their fucking useless twitter XD
and also, the first shows that were dedicated to let people know about the new album didn't work out well, Deryck kinda fucked up except for the last show ...
let's wait till the first single is out, it shouldn't be that long ....

the next update should include the sales from Japan
with the music video out and playing all the festivals in Europe in the summer they will do just fine, because the album is clearly good enough

Its not gonna sell all that much. As much as no one wants to admit it they just aren't the same band they used to be.

I don't see how the sales matter. The album fucking rocks either way.

My personal opinion is the Sums should have released a single with a music video BEFORE they released the album. A lot more people watch music channels than they do radio.

well, this is one of the stupidest things I've read, because as many of people think that AKNF and HHOP are the best Sum 41 albums, I haven't listened to them since the year of 2005 ... sometimes I listen to DTLI, most of the times I dedicate to Sum 41 I spend listening to Chuck, and sometimes SBM ...
my list is 1.Chuck,2.SBM,3.DTLI -- whatever, so in my head, the new album is the second best from 5 albums and 1 EP, and I can guarantee you that I'm not biased ...
IR can suck a dick, Sum 41 wanna leave them anyway, so why should they care about it ?
