1998年成军于加拿大蒙特利尔的Simple Plan乐队由五位成员组成，之前发表了两张专辑，销量均在百万张以上，2005年7月24日，作为CCTV-MTV音乐盛典的嘉宾，他们将空降北京。
2002年，首张纯流行朋克专辑《No Pad, No Helmets Just Balls》在欧美市场的几百万张的销量证明了他们并非等闲之辈。但Simple Plan没有冲昏头脑。
2004年秋，由金牌摇滚制作人Bob Rock(曾经为“金属”乐队等担任制作人)担当监制的专辑《Still Not Getting Any…》(一无所有)的面市充分见证了这五人组合的健康成长。这不再是张专辑纯粹的流行朋克专辑。其第一主打单曲“Welcome to my life”已经成为全球范围内的热门歌曲；“Shut up”则是生猛有力流行朋克，而“Untitled”则是一首动人的情歌。
Simple Plan的情绪其实更多是来自经典朋克们那些永不磨灭的愤怒与青春冲动，激扬的鼓点、流畅的旋律、时髦的扮相、加上不俗的实力和杰出表现使他们成为一代城市少年主流的音乐消费目标。而从其主唱Pierre Bouvier被美国《明星》(PopStar)杂志评为2005年最性感的14个男人之一也可以看到Simple Plan未来的道路会更为多姿多彩。
Two albums. Seven million records sold worldwide. A string of Top 40 hits like I'd Do Anything, Addicted, Perfect and Welcome to My Life.
A worldwide legion of fans who can testify to the power of one of the fiercest live shows ever to hit the boards. At this juncture, Lava/Atlantic rockers Simple Plan simply seem to have it locked. So for its crucial third album the group could just head back into the studio and do just what s worked so well in the past, right? Not quite. Welcome to SIMPLE PLAN, not just an album but a statement of artistic ambition and growth from the Montreal-based quintet. As you d expect from any band that would call its debut album NO PADS, NO HELMETS...JUST BALLS, the self-titled release is a fearless, without-a-net excursion into dynamic music-making, taking what we love best about Simple Plan -- the unbridled energy, the ripping guitars, the hook-filled melodic sensibility -- and incorporating a slew of inventive sonic approaches informed by new collaborators such as Nate Danja Hill(Timbaland, Justin Timberlake, Duran Duran, Nelly Furtado), Max Martin (James Blunt, Kelly Clarkson, Avril Lavigne) and Dave Fortman (Evanescence, Mudvayne). The new equation yields 11 songs that are unquestionably Simple Plan but still sound unlike anything it s done before, from the loping synthesizer loops of the opening track and first single When I'm Gone to the tight dance groove and R&B flavor of The End, the hip-hop styled beat of Generation and the unabashed power balladry of I Can Wait Forever.
