    I think this is their best CD to date. It's got the best riffs and it is heavier than the other Sum41 CDs. Everyo1 should buy Chuck!

    Sum 41 is my absolute favourite band and always will be. I KNOW I am the biggest fan of their music. I listen to them for hours every day and I never get sick of them. This, and their CD Does this Look Infected are the best. I can't choose a favourite song.. That would be like choosing between your kids. Sum 41 is the best band, that's all there is to it.

    This album is unbelievable. I think i m the most diehard SUM 41 fan ever, and this album hits the spot. I dont have a clue what you guys are talking about the song Some Say. That song is my favourite, and i love it sooo much because it reminds me of how melodic and soft Oasis are.

    This was the best CD of Sum 41 ever. I wonder how they can top that? I guess will find out soon in a few years.

    Ok, first of all Sum 41 is the best thing that's ever happened to music and this album ROCKS! Some people are saying that they should stick to their old music but why do the same thing when you can try something different and rock at it? All the albums are sweet and i like every song on this album, is a booyes!

    I do think Sum 41 is the best band in the whole Universe. I think their last CD, Chuck, is great, and also lots of people I know think they're great. They're trying to do their music, but they are still young. People that don't like them should leave 'em and stop fucking them, 'cause there is also lots of people that thinks they're great, and the prove is I do think Sum 41 is the best band in the whole Universe.

I can't stop listening to them, it's samply great. All their CD's are great. So, people, if you don't like'em, FUCK YOU!!!… Expand

    Although half of the riffs are ripped directly from Metallica's catalogue, (especially "The Bitter End") this is Sum 41's tightest and best work. If you like rock, or you're new to Sum 41, this is their definitive album, going out in a blaze of glory before their guitarist quit and they sold out.

    So far, this is the best album that I ever heard in Sum 41. They also have grown to be more mature. Meaningful songs, great catchy guitar riffs and etc.

    In my opinion, if an album has both slow and fast songs that I enjoy, it is a definite win. If I enjoy all the songs however, then it is even better. To this day, Chuck and American Idiot are the only two albums I have CDs for. So, I would highly recommend this, especially 88, Welcome To Hell, and No Solution.

    Loved it. Awesome heavier sound. By far the best Sum 41 cd yet. A lot more awesome guitar riffs and it seems as though the boys have grown up a bit.

    It seems many people (professional critics particularly) do not understand what makes something good. The bottom line with the album 'chuck' is that it is brilliant. What the band has done in the past has no bearing on this collection of musical notes. This album is it's own work of art, and it is precisely that. This band has proven itself worthy by it's past works, It seems many people (professional critics particularly) do not understand what makes something good.

    The ceaselessly blistering tone does get overbearing. [Nov 2004, p.145]

    The spiky quartet furnish their usual shouty vocals with grinding riffola and twiddly guitar solos, just as the rest of the post-Linkin Park world are realising nu metal wasn't such a good idea.

    But whether they're being snotty or serious, there is a constant thread at work: those catchy melodies.
