Sum 41 Golden Shower

Obviously the chest-carving ritual Sum 41 performed for the July/August issue of CHART magazine has paid off for them.

The four hellions from Ajax, ON have achieved Gold status in both the U.S. (500,000 copies sold) and Canada (50,000 copies sold) for All Killer, No Filler. Satan hasn't let them down, coming through on his promise of Gold, riches and women.

Well, they still don't have the latter two, yet, but when Brownsound, Bizzy D, Cone and Steveo 32 wear those Gold albums in public, the chicks will come swooning.

Ah, we remember the days when the guys had nothing but cooper level sales and people mocked us for showering them with praise. Sure, all the credit could go to Satan for guiding this quartet of punks, but that would be a disservice to all their hard work.

Sum41 have been touring heavily in the last 18 months and from the looks of things they won't be letting up any time soon. Presently they're on the road with the Vans Warped Tour, surely causing mucho havoc before arriving home for a cross-Canada tour. They're bringing Blink-182 as the headliner for this jaunt that starts Aug 18 in Vancouver and ends Aug 29 in Montreal.
