We once thought that Avril Lavigne and 'the guy from Sum 41' was the altest couple in the world. Then they got divorced, and Avril Lavigne got married to thet Nickelback bro "Chad Kroeger." Probably because he has way more money and wanted to slam that tight lil Hot Topic Avril bod. Then every1 forgot Sum41 existed, but Nickelback will exist forever because their shitty music truly transcends society, and is listened 2 by more than just Alt Teens who shop at Zumies. Anyways, I didn't even bother googling 'the guy from Sum 41's name' because [...]

His latest effort tackles a track which is near and dear to me, “Fat Lip” by Sum 41 . In my opinion, nothing embodies early 2000’s punk rock like “Fat Lip” and Acetronik’s remix is nothing short of spectacular. Acetronik flips [...]
