Sum 41 Pre-Production Video Updates

[Heather]

yeah I liked day 8's info...I also like that the piano and acoustic are being used again, but like Hentaiman, I think the sound will be different

[samueeL]

Woah, serious update. Nice to get some real info.

The clip where Deryck is playing piano and singing looks promising, I hope he has written piano & vocals only -song but hmm, the first chord progression played on piano sounds weird or atleast it doesn't sound sad =''(

[Gutter Dreams]

sweet, some great info in day eight.

I really don't understand this sentence, lol. But, 14 songs sounds great. I hope most of them are over 3 minutes and are heavy/ aggresive.

He means that he hopes the Cone writes the Bass, Steveo writes the drums and Tom writes the guitar for the songs instead of Deryck writing everything.

[samueeL]

Hmm well that was one bad sentence. What I meant to say is that I hope that this album includes a slow song, without any other instrument than piano.

I agree. I want more songs like 'Slipping Away'.

Haha, I hope so too!

No, but I agree with Samuel, it would be cool to hear a piano-based song by Deryck instead of him using it as "filler" to make the song sound full (ie. Walking Disaster intro, The Jester bridge). Fourteen songs sounds like a good amount. Hopefully that doesn't include intros, joke songs, or hidden tracks. That would just mean less actual (and potentially good) songs.

[Schmiznatch]

I would think that a "slow" song would be out of place on the new 41 record. They've always been about melodic songs that feature multiple layers (particularly vocals) and the idea of them recording a straight-up slow song with one singer and one instrument sounds incredibly...boring. A song like Pieces is about as good as it gets, as far as being called "slow" and I think Deryck loves writing music that is not only personal, but musically interesting as well!

I think Slipping Away was really awesome but it would have been even more awesome without the drums and with a real piano line.

...And here's the day #10.

[TomiT14]

So we'll actually hear someone else singing other than Deryck? That'd be cool!

(I base my expectations on the clip where it shows a writing of "Vox Derek" and "Vox Tom".)

[Gutter Dreams]

for some reason i couldn't watch like past 1:05 but its working now.
pretty good update.

This could be so cool. Tom is an awesome singer.

[samueeL]

I wouldn't expect too much.. Maybe some gang vocals like No Reason's "Hey's", but that's it.

[Heather]

yeah I found the double vox interesting as well, guess we'll find out

[Jeremy Kill]

Well, now I really want to hear some new songs!

[K.]

where the hell is the update 9

[Jeremy Kill]

I was wondering the same thing, haha.

[Heather]

I made screencaps if anyone is interested
