This isn’t surprising, given the fact that Treble Charger’s singer/guitarist Greig Nori produced SUM 41’s latest work. The band’s mix of conventional pouty-lipped lyrics, overblown guitars and radio-friendly riffs might make for a hit single, but simply can’t sustain an 11-track album. The Detox formula wears thin far too quickly. Remnants of the original Treble Charger can be heard in the layered and harmonized vocals (they boast two singers), but the predictable three-minute progression of songs such...

In 1986 they stepped further into workaday modernity when they took their first subway ride...
...marine biologist, Akihito became an expert on fish. He is also a dedicated musician, and the palace often resounds with impromptu concerts of Mozart, Grieg or Beethoven; Akihito is a fine cellist and is joined by his wife playing the harp, Hiro on viola, Aya on the guitar and Nori at the piano. Says chief chamberlain Yasuo Shigeta: "This is a family so full of sweet music...
