The Canadian pop-punk, alt-rock band from Ajax, Ontario has announced their plans to disband after 27 years together. The band with hits like “Fat Lip,” “In Too Deep,” “Hell Song” and “Pieces” has gone on to be among the top 10 best-selling Canadian bands in Canada.
The band released the follow message to their fans and the world:
“Being in Sum 41 since 1996 brought us some of the best moments of our lives. We are forever grateful to our fans both old and new, who have supported us in every way. It is hard to articulate the love and respect we have for all of you and we wanted you to hear this from us first.
Sum 41 will be disbanding. We will still be finishing all of our upcoming tour dates this year, and we’re looking forward to releasing our final album “Heaven :x: Hell,” along with a final worldwide headlining tour to celebrate. Details will be announced as soon as we have them.
For now, we look forward to seeing all you skumfuks on the road and are excited for whatever the future will bring for each of us.
Thank you for the last 27 years of Sum 41.”
The Heaven :x: Hell album contains one disc of pop-punk and one disc of metal.
They will be missed from the tour scene but at least we have the heads up so you can see them one final time.
