◇ image via WikipediaSum 41
Sum 41 is a Punk rock act. Their sound grew out of Metallica, Iron Maiden, Green Day, Judas Priest and Anthrax. Those roots explain a lot about how Sum 41 arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Blink-182, Zebrahead, Simple Plan, +44 and Rise Against, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Scandal, Cartel, Destiny's Child, Ozzy Osbourne and Good Charlotte, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 98 connections around Sum 41, reaching back through Metallica and forward to Scandal.
