Fall Out Boy



Sell outs, too mainstream, and much more are descriptions people may associate with Fall Out Boy, but not me. Didnt your parents ever tell you, dont diss something till youve tried it? Thats what I believe about music. Started in 2001 Fall Out Boy has been gaining popularity. From the tiny town of Wilmette, Illinois, these boys have been working their butts off to get where they are today.

The guys we know as Fall Out Boy NOW are Andy Hurley, Joe Trohman, Pete Wentz, and Patrick Stump. Drummer, Andy, hasnt been with the band from the start but hes still awesome at what he does. Joe is the lead guitarist is not only great at what he does, but he even has videos on youtube.com so aspiring young Fall Out Boys can learn to play some of their songs. Pete Wentz is the lead bassist, along with being a husband, father, and entrepreneur. He also helps co-write the songs. Last, but not least, is lead singer and guitarist Patrick Stump. Mr. Stump, known for his signature hats, helps produce and back-up sing on such bands albums as Cobra Starship, Gym Class Heroes, and The Hush Sound.

Starting out on Uprising Records, they made their way to the hit label, Fueled By Ramen. Aside from numerous singles Fall Out Boy has produced such albums as, Fall Out Boys Evening Out with Your Girlfriend (2003), Take This to Your Grave (2003), From Under the Cork Tree (2005), Infinity on High (2007), and their newest release Folie a Deux (2008). If you like pop punk music, youll love them. Their songs always get suck in my head just like The Academy Is... and Blink 182.


Songs you should listen to by Fall Out Boy (all of them of course, but these are a few of the GREAT ones):
1. This Aint A Scene Its An Arms Race Infinity on High
2. Dance, Dance  From Under the Cork Tree
3. I Dont Care Folie a Deux

Good on ya!
But, you should of said MORE about their music persay.

PS - If God was to be born again and sang for us, Patrick Stump would still sound better.
