Rock out to Sum41‘s most dynamic, raw and most aggressive album to date, Order In Decline.
For each fiery, arena-rock entry (i.e. “Out For Blood” – a down-tuned skate-punk number with an insane guitar solo and “45 (A Matter Of Time)” – a groove-heavy mid-tempo rager that’s about exactly who you think it is), there is an equally powerful, vulnerable ballad that hits just as hard.
The honest process of writing Order In Decline, in which frontman Deryck Whibley chose to not hold back any feelings, ultimately released a weight that has plagued him in recent years. He said:
I want fans to take away what they want to from this record. It really is open to interpretation for each listener. To some, it could be a political record, to some it could be a social commentary, but for me, it’s just a personal record.
Armed with the most honest and intimate songs of his career, Whibley poured everything he had into the upcoming album. Producing, engineering, and mixing the album in his home studio, he painstakingly crafted and fine-tuned each song, highlighted by fast and full riffs, guitar solos from lead guitarist/backing vocalist Dave Brownsound, harmonious chords from guitarist Tom Thacker and the heavy, heart-thumping rhythm section of bassist/backing vocalist Cone McCaslin and drummer Frank Zummo.
Order In Decline is now available for streaming on AppleMusic.
