@@bobabooey4537 Yes sir, I just turned 30, I grew up in south western Ontario, Canada and I grew up with punk/ rock and metal. Huge NOFX fan as well. I met Deryck when I was 18 when I got into a show underage. Have seen them 8 times (want to make it 10). I like the way he writes songs. I covered The Hell Song. Check out my stuff and you will hear the influence.
@@EricBadderMusic love the hell song, I’m 36, was a huge sum41 fan as a teen. Their second album was always my favorite. Of course I’ve grown out of them by now, but good memories.
Deryck sounds like he’s got a really healthy mindset about music and life for someone so deep into a successful music career. Can’t thank him for all the inspiration through the years 🙏🏻🤟🏼
Dereck Whibley is my favorite artist of all time. I'm from Puerto Rico and I can say that Sum 41 save my life. It was the biggest inspiration for me to start my own band and tour my little island. Also, this is the first interview I watched from this UA-cam channel and I'M LOVING IT! You're a great interviewer! much love from Puerto Rico!!!
I just heard the news about Sum 41's disband and it pains me in the gut, I grew up with this band since I discover them watching that insane scene of Reese driving in Malcom in the Middle when I was 10 years old. then I turned 14 and I was hearing Chuck all day long because I felt like an outsider in my school, these guys made the soundtrack of my childhood/teenage years. God bless Sum 41!
I'm in my 30s now and Sum 41 was my favourite band for probably a decade. First concert I ever went to as well! I used to rewatch their metallica medley appearance on MTV and the judas priest/tommy lee medley, walk this way. It used to get me SO PUMPED.
They're video for FAT LIP is a time capsule that truly sets the tone for the entire pop-punk scene during the early 2000's! One of the greatest music vides ever!
That rap-intro is one of the funniest shit outta there. Honestly when Steve left, nothing was like before his departure. He was the soul of this being. Saying that I definitely don't want to underestimate Deryck. I love him as a performer for sure
I love the fact that Deryck is so comfortable with letting go, sounds like he's really healthy now in so many ways. Also, I don't know much about playing guitars but I disagree with him about his singing - I absolutely love the sound of his voice, whether he's screaming or singing along to acoustic guitar / piano. It's beautiful!
Seemed strange considering that in the last third of the video he mentioned he loved where Sum 41 was at that point and really liked where it was going. Then not even a few weeks later they announced they were splitting up.
I always liked Sum 41, but I hadn't really dug in until recently. I didn't reaize Deryck wrote so much of the music itself, and it's all so great. The new double album is super good, and so I just felt like commenting to say how much I've come to respect these guys!
i would love for sum 41 to rerelease their old stuff remastered. when silverstein did it a few years ago on their biggest hits, it really polished up alot of songs and made me appreciate them even more.
Absolutely phenomenal interview. Seen so many interviews and have loved them since All Killer No Filler came out. Love these guys, shame they're retiring but they'll still be with us in our record players. Absolutely inspirational. Thanks for the interview!
Cant wait for the new album. Been listening to Sum 41 from the song Astronaut and Makes no Difference straight through till order in decline. Thank you for years of great music. 41 Salute.
Loved this band passionately since 2007. Can’t believe they are splitting after watching this it comes as an even bigger surprise in some ways. Thankyou for everything Deryck and sum 41.
Saw them live and I hadn’t really heard many of their songs and when I left the show I was a huge fan. This was a long time ago love how they still rock that shit!!
I love these interviews. It’s like going back in time and being in the minds of the guys who got me the things all teenagers go through and come out the other side and realize how important music really is.
I always felt like Greig Nori latched onto Sum 41 but didn't have their best interest in mind. The songs are great, maybe one day they can remaster some of the original albums he produced to go in-line with Deryck's vision? It's great to see he's back on track with his life, as a Canadian I've always loved Sum 41. I was about 12 when they took off - they were in rotation with Much Music all the time and it was neat. When they used to do the Much Music lives where the bands would go to the Music studios building and do a live and personal song and storytelling sort of show I remember I watched it over and over again.
They emulated bands that were on the Warped Tour and wanted to do the same. They achieved exactly that! They didn't want to conform in high school and kept that mindset in their music their whole career. These things can't be understated. What an awesome band, my first favorite band and who got me into music in general
Fun Fact: my band Dylan Dog was on the same punk compilation back in 1998. I remember they had a song on that album called "Astronaut", It was produced by a Toronto label called WOUNDED PAW RECORDS. Riot 99, Respect Through Fear and Action was on that comp too.
I got my ticket for the tour this summer. I can't wait! It's a bummer they announced their break up in the near future. This upcoming tour might be the last time I see them. So I'm going to go all out. I'm gonna give them my 100% when I see them this summer. I love Sum 41. I've been a fan since 2001. Thanks for the amazing music and the memories of my youth. See you in August in Virginia! \m/
Back in the day we played a show at the Elmo in Toronto. Downstairs was slow so we packed it in and went up to see what the fuss was about. Literally just packed wall to wall. They could really put on great show and draw in a great crowd.
half an hour of power and all killer no filler were such AMAZING albums from start to finish. so much fun. so well written yet so juvenile. its hard for the same band to top those 2. maybe it was at a time in my life where those albums were so perfect as a kid around the same age wishing i could make something that cool.
Sum 41 is also a reason I started playing guitar I would just play and jam to like fatlip and the hell song, was just phenomenal My first solo was the hell song
I seen Sum way back in like 1998 or 2000 in a small bar in St. John's, NL called "The Majestic" when they opened up for Treble Charger. The lead guitarist (Dave Baksh) actually took our coats at the coat check lol. One of the best shows I ever went to! And one of my firsts (I was probably 10 years old).
Super interesting to hear that Fat Lip was written over a long period of time and in pieces! Usually the more you tinker with something creative it becomes worse, so it's cool to hear a story like that.
How amazing how the lighting changed to this moody movie atmosphere the moment you switched to the other cameras. Post processing really changes everything.
Stryker is such a good interviewer. He asks the fan questions we all have been wondering about and not the norm..I do have a suspicion that Stryker maybe knew about the upcoming announcement at the time tho..🤔
Can't remember the date but they played on The Warped tour my buddy was also playing on on a small, almost ground level side stage, it was in Pontiac Michigan. They left a hell of an impression on us, they were so good, so tight and we thought, man, they're going to blow up and they got big shortly after, I feel it was well deserved, they were great live. Looks like he borrowed Paul Simonon's wardrobe (this is compliment, not a criticism BTW) Another thing is I'm an old punk rocker and love to see new bands/opening bands.
Im surprised they chucked it in. Especially after being sidelined for two years with covid and the drinking. I dont know how you could give it up, not take a break, end it....
@ 9:09 that's how I learned about ALL THE PUNK ROCK BANDS! the thank yous and pictures of shirts the bands would be wearing. That how I learned about TILT!, Pnast Division and more. I was poor so it was the tape cases id be looking at.
This was a masterclass from the perspective of someone who's just starting out. It's funny that he's influences by nofx and pennywise. My first show was pennywise and guess who was there? Fat mike. It was cool.
This is the first time I've ever watched this channel.. I've been a Sum 41 fan since All Killer came out when I was a really young kid.. and this was awesome! And I can't wait to see more! Deryck is a genuinely awesome dude! I would love to meet him one day! This video made me subscribe! Keep it up brotha! 🤘🤘
Great interview. Noticed he constantly says “I”. Really wondering if Derek wrote every single song for sum 41… surely other band mates had input or songs they wrote???
99% of them were written by deryck apart from a few. chuck had a few songs dave and deryck wrote together and screaming bloody murder was originally a gob song. but other than that all of their songs have been written by deryck
Not signing to a Canadian major label was the smartest decision that Sum 41 ever made. Once you sign and get successful you're locked into a system that works against you instead of with you.

He's very very modest.
he's an underrated rhythm guitarist. Fatlip and In too deep has the best pop punk chord pattern and the shifting is good too
Very sad to hear that Sum 41 is now breaking up. I’ve seen them live twice. They are my heroes.
very sad indeed 😥 I found out yesterday
At least they are going out with a bang. Final tour and an album. So many other breakups just ended abruptly without a proper sendoff.
Seemed strange considering that in the last third of the video he mentioned he loved where Sum 41 was at that point and really liked where it was going. Then not even a few weeks later they announced they were splitting up.
It isn't the same band I grew up with anyway, members changed so..Dave left 2006 and Steve left 2013..

Great interview, and I appreciate the homage to Burnout 3 on your shelf. Classic game.
Thank you so much! I'm actually the voice of CRASH FM in the game (many people don't know that)
@@TunaonToastwithStryker wow fun fact thank you Stryker!
flying from the 6ix to Washington to see sum41 this summer!
This is rad, thanks Stryker!! Very fun and insightful podcast with one of my favorite musicians of all time. Deryck is so humble yet so creative.
Sum 41 announced their disbanding yesterday and you wouldn’t know watching this interview. Damn. RIP.
Deryck has such an awesome personality, he has a way of explaining stuff that is intriguing and relaxing....excellent interview
Absolutely phenomenal interview. Seen so many interviews and have loved them since All Killer No Filler came out. Love these guys, shame they're retiring but they'll still be with us in our record players. Absolutely inspirational. Thanks for the interview!
thank you so much!
Awesome interview! Loved Deryck talking about everything, especially the new album. Great questions, Stryker
Sum 41 best mix with pop punk and thrash metal and Excited for heaven & hell

"because you don't know us at all , we laugh when old people fall" my favorite lyrics of all time
Great interview. Sum 41 and NOFX are my favorite bands!
Thanks for this. All killer no filler was the first cd I ever bought with my own money. In to deep was 10 year old me’s favorite song.
Saw them live and I hadn’t really heard many of their songs and when I left the show I was a huge fan. This was a long time ago love how they still rock that shit!!
Awesome video, deryck is very articulate and thoughtful, great songwriter. Haha kudos to him for keeping healthy.
Whoa, didn’t expect this. Got nostalgics and put their band name in. The search bar

Going to the concert tonight @ Xfinity Mass. Will be bittersweet but so psyched!🔥🔥🔥🔥

All right, now I know what I need - I need the Sum 41 remixes of the first four Sum 41 albums because I agree qholly with Deryck's opinions, here

Stoked to see he's still going well👍👍👍
I got that VHS demo in a swag bag at a PunkORama show/ tour. I watched it a ton. Wish I still had it!
Great interview! Interesting facts we didn't know about the band :)
Deryck's voice when he isn't singing kinda sounds a bit like Michael Cera
that’s true
I love that Tommy and rob said yes and gave you guys a fucking shot to impress. Big ups to them and sum41 for absolutely destroying that night.
Sum 41 introduced me to Punk music much like the Sex Pistols did for Derek. Thank you Derek and Sum 41!
Super interesting to hear that Fat Lip was written over a long period of time and in pieces! Usually the more you tinker with something creative it becomes worse, so it's cool to hear a story like that.
That DVD with the pranks and full live performance, was huge inspiration! Big thanks to S41!
How the hell do you just sit down and write dtli calibre songs. Gifted.
He's the best. Nuff said. Sum 41 lives on forever for those of us who connected with their music.
The production on Does This Look Infected sounds great to me. Would be interesting hearing a remixed version of it though.
Striker, I've been listening to your voice for years. This is the first time I see your face. HAHAHAHAHA Nice!!
Thank you!
I hope to hear some vocals from Dave and Tom also on the new Heaven x Hell album… 👏 😈 🔥 🔥 🔥
The first thing they should do is GIVE UP using those silly titles.........................but they love them!!!
How amazing how the lighting changed to this moody movie atmosphere the moment you switched to the other cameras. Post processing really changes everything.
Another amazing interview
THANK YOU!!!!
Brilliant interview. Thank you ! Love SUM 41 💙
Thank you for the years of music sum 41
We hope heaven and hell comes out this year 2023, pleeease! 🙏🥺
No thank you, the quicker it comes the sooner they disband and I for once cannot accept that this year

After watching this interview it made me think that maybe he's going to start a new band. It could be possible?
Biggest shocker is they asked Slash to do something on stage AND on TV and he said no.
But Rob Halford and Tommy Lee filled in for him so everything was ok!
Damn guess gonna blast CHUCK all damn day
Please remix DTLI? It's my very favorite album and I would love to see the authors version
Totally paused this at 28:50 to go check out the mtv 20th anniversary performance... just saying.

my birthday is just like deryck but he is much older than me
You look good Derry! Take care of your health, with the alcohol and stuff
