Here is the new Fall Out Boy song which dropped out the sky the other day with an album announcement and video featuring 2 Chainz with a flamethrower burning stuff with two hot chicks cause #YOLO? Anyway, song is a pretty solid jam, not their best jam ever or anything but enough to get people excited for an album. And also perfect to be played during every commercial for college basketball this coming March (IU IU IU IU IU IU).
And they noticeably burned a copy of Take This To Your Grave, the record jocked hard by pop-punk “purists” who don’t like their arguably much better new stuff, which is a good indication that they stopped giving a fuck about those nostalgic little weiners are about to just release crazy jams and be hella famous again. They got pretty sad when no one really gave a shit about the real solid Folie A Deux, so now maybe they’re over trying to please the fans who can’t keep up with how much better they are at songwriting. Patrick bro can sing real well now too, mad props, making your past self look like a bitch.
These bitter teens are never coming back, about time you get over it.
The lack of fucks given in everything from the video to the lulzy title (“Save Rock and Roll” lolololololol) is sure to make people’s butts hurt and me be happy. Backed hard, I’m pretty stoked on it. BUT WHAT DO YA”LL THINK???
I dunno how to embed polls.
DOOSE IS
i honestly do not care at all
^^ here here brah ^^ =]
medium stoked brah.
idk if there even is a way to embed polls
Not rly feelin’ the new song. I’m not a pop punk purist or w/e and like the last couple FOB records, but this new track just ain’t doin’ it for me. :( I might go see ‘em live though, oughtta be fun.
I love these guys and I think the song is fairly promising. Officially stoked.
Dey been gone too long. No one will care bout this.
Also, there’s a reason “Take This To Your Grave” was the only FOB album I ever got. It is grad degree levels of pop punk superiority.
yes, very much so. big fan of FOB so I’m so fucking happy that the hiatus is over. I liked some of the non-FOB shit they did (Pete’s stuff, not so much), stoked to hear how they incorporated this into the all-new FOB sound.
all i really know about pete’s extracurricular affairs is he did guest vox on an ETID song i like and it was pretty sweet. i’m just going to pretend that’s all he did.
i like dance dance and i’m not okay but i don’t raelly know many of their other jams but it’s still fun bursting into ‘this aint a scene’ when nobody is expecting it
i c wat u did thar
8/10 troll
The youtube comments alone make this song/comeback/reunion/whatever worth it.
I’ve been a huge fan of FOB since the first time I saw them, opening for Count the Stars (Victory Records) at some little bar in ’02 or ’03. Not sure if Take This To Your Grave had officially been out yet, but they played nothing but stuff off that record. Stuck with them ever since, always loved the newest releases more than the last. Folie A Deux and the two new tracks on the Greatest Hits record are pure pop masterpieces. It’s wild shit being there every step as a band grows from opening bar shows with 25 kids to headlining and selling out an amphitheater.
I’m honestly not big on this new song, but I’ll be happy if more of the new material picks up where “Alpha Dog” and “From Now On We Are Enemies” left off.
There’s always one one dickhead.
Yeah fuck this guy for sticking by a hard working band and not pretending he stopped liking their music because it wasn’t considered cool…
More like… I remember one I saw this band in 94 when shit was underground. Shut up dickhead, we get it …. you’re cool as fuqqq
Nope. All my ‘fucks given’ for 2013 were used up when mbv dropped this past weekend.
Love take this 2 ur grave.
Is pete still rocking the 05 swoop hair?
not sure, but i kno Patrick bro had a funny hat on during their first show back.
nope, he grew up with the rest of us and has short hair now.
FOB ranks up there with Billy Talent for me, in the list of bands I really really liked when I was twelve but don’t really care about now
Legit double-take at “I’m on FIII-AAAAHH!!!”
Stoked as tits for this, already pre-ordered Save Rock and Roll (yes fanboi). Patrick Stump is a much better singer now than he ever was. Song seems like it would fit better under Patrick’s solo project. Surprised they’re re-using a song title though: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7PusSfbIkwU
that demo song is pretty essential garbage tho, cutting a line from it isn’t the worst, especially to use in a much better song. Cringe at comments saying they wish they released that song instead in 2013. Shameful
Idk man, I think this song would make a pretty good B-Side to one of their less famous singles.
And yeah man, dem internet pop punk warriors will never let go of the past. IMO Folie a Deux >>>>>>>> Take This to Your Grave (SRS)
not from under the cork tree? not music
Backed
FUTCT is a masterpiece. TTTYG follows a close second, IOH and FOD are straight pop shit
you must be a blast at parties. Mirin your fedora with the word ‘atheist’ actually sewn in.
i am so happy. i wish the album would of been called “defend pop punk” tho
hahahaha
I think FOB are too big to drop something called ‘defend pop punk’ without it losing its impact a bit. Now, if Chunk! No, Captain Chunk! called their next album ‘Defendes-vous le punk de pop’ (or whatever ‘defend pop punk’ is in french), then we’d see some epic butthurt.
UofM>>>>>>iu
You might want to check the scoreboard bro, I was at that game. it was not close.
Psyched on this. Ima try and snag tickets to see them in dc cuz I’ve never been to a big overproduced pop show before and it should be sick.
I saw them in 07 with plain white shirts and PE heroes. They had fire and confetti and shit. ’twas awesome
I’d lament over how I miss Take This To Your Grave-era FOB, but I don’t really. the only song I liked on that album is the one where they basically wrote a NFG song, and NFG writes enough NFG songs to satiate me so it’s all good.
Success-era FOB never did anything for me either and this new song really just confuses me via being extremely white and not rlly knowing what a Two Chains is, so I don’t really care. They are the one sxe vegan metalcore success story we can all point to and say “someday, if you’re really smart, you’ll stop worrying so much about your integrity and maybe you’ll make a little money off this music bullshit”.
Their newer stuff is better from an objective point of view but it is pretty much just art rock/classic rock in a pop frame. Call me a purist but I’d rather have some fun pop-punk then grizzled classic-rock influenced shit.
I am enjoying the spectacle more then the music tbh. I like the reactions they are getting, I also enjoy what they are doing on a theoretical level by realizing that lots of people still like the guitar band structure but not really the music anymore (talking top 40 and actually making mega $$$) so we get this whole trying to stay relevant as a guitar band by not really being a guitar band while still being a guitar band to get fans and money, then they act like they don’t want to be a guitar band to piss people off even more.
Some advanced shit, or I am entirely reading too much into solid but forgettable song.
No joke a friend of mine who is not into this music at all neutrally commented that it sounds a bit like the backstreet boys.
Lol did they throw a give up the ghost cd in the fire?
LOL. In a case of unintentional pro-tr00ness it will actually endear them to hc fans irrelevant of what theyre doing to the CD.
In b4 peter puts one of his stools through the central ‘O’ of a Hope Con CD in their next vid.
SO stoked on this! Awesome song as well as video!
Pretty excited, even though I prefer their output pre-Infinity on High. New song is sweet, doe.
that’s cool I guess
sure old school FOB is good…i just feel like pete needs the money..what ever happened to patricks band..things to ponder
In this case the butthurt is semi-legit. Old FOB had riffs, general dynamics and BREAKDOWNS, this is just super-pro production and good vocals with none of that fun stuff.
While I think they’re definitely over writing songs like the stuff they wrote on TTTYG, I don’t think they’re really disowning any of that shit. Saw a photo of their setlist at their first show back and they played like 5 songs from that album. Record is full of jams but I ain’t mad at their newer stuff. “I Don’t Care” is a solid pop jam.
Also “What a Catch Donnie” got that “epic ballad” vibe going on and #demrelatablelyrics in the chorus
“What a Catch, Donnie” is kinda liek The Beatles only it’s better since it’s not from leik 1391 leik that band
So glad they’re back together. Fall Out Boy jams bring back so memories. Bought my tickets to see them on their upcoming tour the second they came out.
