Song: Fatlip
from Canadian punk rock band Sum 41
This post stands representative for all the punkrock and poppunk bands I listened (sure still do from time to time). We have there Blink 182, Mest, Green Day, Good Charlotte, The Offspring, Zebrahead, and many more. This was always the other side of my musical coin during my school time. On the one side metal, on the other side punkrock. Today I'd need a coin with 50 sides because I dived in soo many different genres and god damn I'm happy about that. Can't imagine what I would have missed if I still only listen to metal and punk and never found from funk to ska to reggae, just to name one evolution.
Fatlip was love on first listen. It just has so much power and party-character and was played at many nights full of beer. Also again: a song you can go crazy playing it on the drums ;)
What's your favourite song of this genre (blink, offspring,...)? Let me know in the comments!
I think i already wrote it in another post and also read it in some posts of other steemians. Anyway, just a short background information to the name Sum 41: They started in 1996 and changed their name for a show in September in the same year which was on the 41st day of the summer. Back then they started to get serious about their musical future. So 41st day of summer - Sum 41 - simple af, I like that.
