Sum 41
from Tonight's Musical Guest, Today Hosted by Tonight's Musical Guest, Today
They stormed the early 2000s like their name was El Niño. But what happened once the storm died down? It's SUM 41 week! Alex and Jon go solo to talk about the startling meteoric rise and winding transformation of this somewhat pop-punk Canadian outfit. Tommy Lee and Rob Halford join the band for a rock medley to open up MTV's 20th anniversary special before Seann William Scott and Sum 41 attempt to mend a broken nation on SNL. And the guys try to make sense of the band's long and intentional turn away from their pop-punk origins. Plus the debut of "Fake Hair or Real Hair?" Want to watch along with us?
