@@sillycatboy69420the leaked dick pic... Those who weren't around for the original Fall Out Boy run will never know... Strange enough I was in the same situation as Pete but for me it was an acting job I was in and someone involved in the crew who eventually got dropped because of the whole situation so that's one thing Pete and I have in common our dicks are out there on the internet without our consent
my unbiased opinion: every single album is purely amazing, best pop punk band to ever exist. from their music style to their lyrics and meanings behind all of the songs, they are genius and especially all of their new albums are genuinely underappreciated. amazing band, beautiful vocals, great people. 10/10
Agreed. I think the issue is that they went more pop than punk in there later albums post Folie. Light Em Up is definitely more pop than punk. Not a bad song, but you can tell their sound was evolving from their previous stuff released and from that I tend to listen to stuff from primarily the first two albums.
A thought save rock and roll was pretty good overall. Mania and ABAP weren't great but they weren't as bad as people make them out to be. And So Much (for) Stardust SLAYS
Assuming you mean American beauty American psycho by abap, then yeah, I don’t really like a couple of the songs on there but like come on, it has Uma Thurman and centuries, and novocaine too
Despite listening to Fall Out Boy when their original 4 albums were still relevant, SO many of my favourite songs are from their more recent albums. Alone Together is an all timer for me
Honestly? My hot take is that every album apart from Folie are of the same fantastic level (Folie of course being the best thing released to mankind and a blessing on my ears.) Heck even bonus songs and EPs are goddamn fantastic.
When Folie came out i hadnt even listened to it. I had a dream I was sitting at a piano with Patrick and I told him “i didnt buy that album” and he said “I understand” lol
Honestly, I love everything that Fall Out Boy does from their old stuff to their newest album. If you look at the way Pete and Patrick collaborate its incredible and of course the unbelieveable talent of Joe and Andy. Their lyrics speak to me on a different level. I love them 🖤💜
As someone who only got into fallout boy after mania came out. And then went through all of their old music. I can say with absolute certainty that their first 4 albums were absolutely superior to anything post hiatus
@@DudeMan-xs3db actually when I heard some of mania I thought what is this nonsense. Don't get me wrong I liked "hold me tight or don't" But It was only till I listened to under the cork tree that I started to like them.
Imagine what life was like for 14 year old me when they released "From under the cork tree" and I discovered their music. It was the best time to be alive!
Nah man if they wanted a cash grab they'd turn into a nostalgia act and make another from under the cork tree. I say this as someone whose favorite album is from under the cork tree. And you're totally missing out if you haven't listened to their new stuff
“Cash grab” meaning “what the fans want” Yeah, if they made music that actually sells, like they used to. The closest they’ve got to their old sound since returning was AB/AP and oh look, it sold like fireworks before Bonfire Night. Centuries is their most played song on Spotify. But I guess that’s bad.
I appreciate your stance on their newer albums and how you don’t just shit on it and pretend they’re all objectively terrible just because you don’t like it, like a lot of people do. Instead you acknowledge your own personal biases and the fact that when it comes down to it, and opinion is simply an opinion
This is so accurate lol Have you heard the snippet of their new song, since they have a new album this week? Unless they're messing with us, it sounds like they're heading back towards their old sound. Buuut we'll see
That was most concise and exact explanation of the band as a whole I’ve ever heard. There are more details to add but this is how I’d explain them to someone who’s never heard of them. Sometimes it’s okay for us to get older and realize certain things aren’t made for us anymore.
I love all of their albums but Folie just does it for me. I love it with my whole heart, the lyricism,poetry,melody,patrick’s voice and pete’s screams,ofc Andy and Joe too! everything is just perfect abt them !!!
Ngl, ABAP was what got me into Fob, and it’s still my fav album of theirs. I get that some people don’t rlly like it as much as their other albums due to their style change, but it’s still got plenty of good and underrated bangers.
I was obsessed with fall out boy in elementary to early middle school. My favorite song then was my songs know what you did in the dark! I had a few cd's! 😊 I was stoked to learn that i shared a birthday with the lead singer (same day. Not same year)! Man, those were some good years. I still love the band! ❤
I got into them when they did their comeback and i loved the new style, strong concept and the music ofccc,Save Rock and Roll was my first album i ever listened to and im still obsessed
Lucky me, I can pretty much listen to any genre and like it as long as the rhythm sounds good to me 😂 Their music is already weird in my part of the world (eastern Africa) so I wouldn't have found them if I wasn't into experimenting with new sounds. Can't say I love all their songs, but there are those both old and new that I love still.
@@lucasputich2896 I’m in my late twenties and all I do is listen to the stuff I grew up with. Every now and then I’ll find a good indie album or something though. Shoot even when I was 18 and SRnR came out I was a bit bummed by the new sound lol
respect. this is how one should give out opinions. as for me, i rlly think fob is a great long lasting all time band as i see them being active until now. as for me, i think their old stuffs are pretty iconic but i rlly like how different artists try out many things esp for fob i rlly like how they mix up things while still having that old stuff flavor in it. sml for fob what a talented band and i have rlly utmost respect in patrick's voice 🙌🔥
Yes! Thank you! I saw that Wonder Woman Lynda Carter says they are her favorite band, and do I checked them out… Yah, I like them, but I needed “ an explanation “
I agree with all of this, but in my opinion so much for stardust was an amazing comeback and it’s extremely underrated (Folie and cork tree will always be my favorites though)
My mom used to have a game on her phone called Flappy Fall Out Boy. Basically you could choose between the four members of FOB and play flappy bird with their pixelated faces while Sugar, We're Going Down played in the background. One of my earliest memories is begging my mom to play it and being angry when she deleted it off her phone to save storage
Tbh i never heard of them before than 3 years ago... and... i fricking love their tracks :D its strong and meaningful and hell some even give me a "i want to live" vibe :D
I've listened to all of their albums (starting with EOWYG) and I love them sm they were punk rock/pop in the 2000s and then in the 2010s they went more pop then rock, but the majority of the songs from their new albums (including but not limited to M A N I A) they have some rock songs. The style did change but they still have my heart lol and I would suggest when starting listening to them start with Take This To Your Grave, for thats the first album they had publicly put out. I hope more people consider listening to them!
I'm seeing them in concert Thursday at the Dickies Arena. I agree with you. I loved the first 4 albums. The 5th was okay but, after that, wasn't swoon on the sound. I do miss the old days though! I was more into the adorable Patrick Stump back then. 😅
When I was 12, I loved how experimental Save Rock and Roll and American Beauty were, but now I really dig FOB's old stuff. I still think those albums are really good and those ARE the albums I grew up with, but yeah I'd rather they play their old songs if I go see them lol
Honestly, I've never heard a FOB song I didn't like, even as a casual fan at best. They're most recent album was the most exciting thing I've heard musically in years.
Nah, I'm 28 they were my favorite band when I was 11 and they still are. I've listened to every one of their albums and I actually love the new ones more than the old ones, Save rock and Roll is the only album out there where I like every single song and I listened to them. There is not a song I don't like, just songs I like more than Others. And recently So Much For Stardust came out and I love a good 6 songs of the album and they're now in my playlist when I drive to work and even when I sleep.
My take is that I kind of just view their old and new stuff as if it’s actually different bands! I absolutely LOVE both, but I don’t find them similar enough to really compare
I’m 20 so fob started making music around when I was born but man I love every song, there’s not a single one I dislike Love them so much 😅 finally got to see them for my birthday this year!
Lol that's me explaining fall out boy now. They're still the band that got me through my teenage years. When I was 13 and Infinity on High Came out, it was all anyone in my house heard for weeks. And now that I have tickets to go see them next month, it's all anyone in my house is hearing...again lol.
I love their old emo sound. Grave was decent but their three next albums were fantastic: Cork Tree, Infinity on High, and Folie a Deux. I admit when they came back with Save Rock and Roll and AB/AP I didn’t really listen to those albums when they were released. But I listened to Mania and it was totally different and I didn’t like it as much but it’s not terrible. I just recently a few months ago checked out the entirety of SRNR and ABAP and honestly I like those albums. And yes, SMFS is frickin amazing. Love From The Other Side and I Am My Own Muse are my two favorite songs off the album. I’m not a fan of the two spoken word tracks (The Pink Seashell and Baby Annihilation). And their cover of We Didn’t Start The Fire is good.
damn a youtube comment section thats actually nice abt their post hiatus stuff 😭 what a pleasant surprise! there are a lot of gems that deserve attention, and their newest album is the best they've released in over a decade
Lol I’m personally more partial to the 2010s stuff, I guess because that was the stuff on the radio when I first heard of them! I really like some older ones too, I just lose my shit when songs from American beauty/American psycho or save rock and roll come on!
My songs artistically was amazing. The lyrics punk album they did was fun but nothing spectacular American beauty has some straight bops and I love mania. This newest album is aight. They win some they lose some, but the talent is and will always be there. We all humans, we all evolve. Their dads now. I’m happy as a parent I can listen to old fob when I’m sad and new fob with my kids because so much of it has a positive vibe and meaning
My favorites are definitely still the first four, but like the first two of the second batch (American beauty and save rock and roll) but mania was a flop in my opinion, but the come back with so much for stardust was HUGE. That one is definitely my favorite fob album, oh and also the folie a deux anniversary song pavlove is also really good
My child is going to be named after the "pretty boy bass player" and I'm also old but I still buy the albums and follow them on tours. Being old isn't an excuse dude 🤪 I'm also fat and pregnant and I'm STILL GOING TO THE SHOWS🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
The problem is musicians wanna make music about their thoughts and feelings NOW. Music fans want to listen to music about their thoughts and feelings THEN. I can image it's pretty hard for bands to keep making their "old" music when they just aren't there anymore mentally because they're 40. Where as fans want to listen to nostalgic stuff that reminds them of being young because they're 40.
Idk fall out boy aged with me pretty well. I like most if their studf. Lake Efrect Kid is one of my favorite songs ever. Patrick has a soul voice and their new shit lets it shine
listen to the new album coming this march 24th have a feeling you’ll be pleasantly surprised there’s alr a couple singles and some snippets out it’s good
It was disappointing. They need to get past this whole aversion of pop punk they currently have, and do another record that sounds like Of All The Gin Joints.
@@SpinbassflipbassflyPatrick Stump likes the pop soul genre - he was inspired by Michael Jackson. It’s not CLASSIC fall out boy but I still appreciate the music and there are some good songs in that one - particularly what a time to be alive, love from the other side, so good right now, hold me like a grudge. Look at Patrick’s solo tour - it was incredible.
I'm not gonna lie bro, I laught a lot with the end, unexpected, and I like the new style, maybe it's because I'm younger (?, not soo, but 26 stills fine), but lol, nice short bro
