... ‘Underclass Hero’ however sees the band return to their Pop Punk roots, and was actually a welcome surprise when I listened to it for the first time. I was expecting this album to be ‘Chuck’ the Second; however it is far from being that and is once again a great album. In my eyes Sum 41 have ... Read review

This is a very very good album which includes both upbeat track and slower songs. It is of typical sum 41, mixing chuck ... ...heard in certain songs on underclass hero, such as ma poubelle, writing in french, and for those of you who don't know french, this means my bin. There you go, back to typical stupid sum 41 lyrics that we all no and love from there beginning. There is also some new sounds on this album with songs like pull the curtain because although it sounds as though it could've come from chuck you can tell it hasn't because of this more upbeat sound.

Advantages: Return to their old style Disadvantages: Some political opinions
Underclass hero is the first studio album without Brownsound (Dave Baksh) and in my opinion they dont need him because this album is superb. And you really dont seem to noticed that he has gone!
Sounds different from their past two albums "Does This Look Infected?" and "Chuck" but fans of "All Killer..No Filler" will love this because this is Sum 41 returning to their pop punk style. Sounds like old Sum 41 but grown up, but you'll still be singing ...

Album Notes: Although departed guitarist David Baksh will be missed, Sum 41 carries on admirably and tunefully with their fifth studio album. The self-produced collection includes the walloping, catchy title track, which resembles in both sound and lyrics the power-punk anthems of old-schoolers Stiff Little Fingers.
Album Reviews: Kerrang (Magazine) (pp.46-47) - "[M]ixing easy familiarity with just enough twists and turns to keep you guessing where they might head to next."
