Interview: Deryck Whibley (Sum 41) on new album, musical nostalgia

Sum 41‘s new album, Screaming Bloody Murder, comes out next week, and singer Deryck Whibley recently did an interview to talk about it. He discusses the lengthy recording process, creative control and fans’ nostalgic expectations.

“I can’t write the same song twice. Whatever I write is what comes out. If I try to write a song like another song from our past, I wouldn’t have any ideas and couldn’t finish it. I don’t even feel like I have any control over what I write. Where songs come from is weird. I don’t always know why I’m writing about what I’m writing about. I want to be able to create new feelings and new music.”
