De har senere fulgt opp med hits som «Still Waiting», «Pieces» og «With Me» for å nevne noen. Bandet har solgt flere titalls millioner album og har en enorm fanskare verden over. De har også samarbeidet/turnert med artister som Metallica, Tenacious D, Iggy Pop, Pennywise, Bowling for Soup, Rob Halford og Kerry King med flere. Nå er de aktuelle med det kritikerroste nye albumet «Order in Decline», som ble sluppet i sommer til kjempekritikker. AllMusic gir 4 av 5 i sin anmeldelse: «One of the most accomplished albums in their catalog». Sum 41 består av Deryck Whibley, Dave Baksh, Jason McCaslin, Tom Thacker og Frank Zummo.

  • Bill Whittle - Western Conservative Summit 2013
    Bill Whittle - Western Conservative Summit 2013 How many of you know a politician or two, or more, who has a hard time answering simple questions? Their responses to the questions sound fantastic, but they never actually answer the question. The root of this problem is the fear of admitting the truth. Thankfully our next speaker not only embraces the truth but he does it with enthusiasm and clarity. Bill Whittle is a political commentator, writer, director, and a pilot. Two things about Bill Whittle stood out to me: he has many videos on youtube, one of his most famous one is his analysis on the Occupy Wall Street protestors (+history of Wall Street protests / Occupation Nation "An Occupy Wall Street Documentary" (FULL)); it has garnered over 2.4 million views on youtube, and he also did a video about the Trayvon Martin case (+history of the shooting of Trayvon Martin), and that has, I think, about 1.5 million views, and counting. So, make sure to look those up on Youtube. (1:20) But something else struck me more. Bill Whittle has a video series, where he is the Virtual President of the United States. And let me tell you why you’re clapping, because he answers questions from the Press Corps. The most fascinating part about this is that he actually answers the questions with precisions, and so with that in mind, the truth is not safe today. The title of his speech is "Taking Back the Moral High Ground." Since he’s not going to beat around the bush, you can say, "Bye, bye Bush (George Bush)." Please join me in welcoming Bill Whittle.
