the rest of the album didn't sound very much like fun. to me
― J0rdan S., Friday, 5 April 2013 23:01 (eleven years ago) link
basically it sounds like the album that should have come after 'infinity on high'... it almost feels intentionally corrective to me

folie a deux is kind of a warm, gloopy mess that i love... these songs sound much sharper
yeah i'm sure the album sounds like Fall Out Boy, i just kinda lolled at the hammy campfire singalong of "we are [like] young [volcanoes]"

i kind of see from under the cork tree and folie a deux being lineal descendants, linking infinity on high and this new one together would make some kind of symmetrical sense

where are ppl hearing this? did it leak or is it just journo-perks
― twinkin' and drinkin' and ready to fly (Alex in Montreal), Saturday, 6 April 2013 01:38 (eleven years ago) link
just journo-jerks i think

it comes out in a week so i'm sure it will be out there soon enough

"save rock and roll" is the most post pitch-perfect thing ever
― J0rdan S., Saturday, 6 April 2013 02:57 (eleven years ago) link

so far astounding in how it seems to engage with modern pop whoa-whoa bullshit and make it actually great
hahaha holy shit this is great
― Mordy, Monday, 8 April 2013 15:19 (eleven years ago) link
"Alone Together" first semi-dud imo, children chorus makes it worse not better, but even that sounds so glossy and huge and explosive that it's easy to forgive the retreading. "Phoenix" so insanely good.
― Mordy, Monday, 8 April 2013 15:29 (eleven years ago) link
i basically pretend this album starts at "alone together" which is prob the most fall out boy thing on here
― J0rdan S., Monday, 8 April 2013 15:35 (eleven years ago) link
omg yesyesyes
i will take my fangirl ears off one I get over the excitment of omg a new FOB album imo

Patrick's voice just gets better and better - he's like the little engine that could

hoping that the love cameo is like marilynne faithful on metallica
― 乒乓, Monday, 8 April 2013 15:54 (eleven years ago) link
marilynne faithful lol

the title track is prob the most fascinating thing they've ever written
― J0rdan S., Monday, 8 April 2013 16:07 (eleven years ago) link
like they wrote a track called "save rock and roll" and not only got elton john to sing on it but also had him sing one of their old lines
― J0rdan S., Monday, 8 April 2013 16:08 (eleven years ago) link
so much fist pumping and woo in this I'm loving it

never listened to "phoenix" and "my songs" in sequence but man everything is pitched at 100 percent for the first six minutes of this record
― emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Monday, 8 April 2013 16:41 (eleven years ago) link
i love that run of the final 3 tracks at the end -- especially RatTatTat fkn courtney fuck yeah
― set the controls for the heart of the sun (VegemiteGrrl), Monday, 8 April 2013 16:41 (eleven years ago) link
i love when elton john pronounces "love" as "LUFF"
― J0rdan S., Monday, 8 April 2013 16:42 (eleven years ago) link
though I kinda wish this was 70's elton, his oldman elton low voice is a bit jarring at first

i never think of pete wentz as a bass player but that's a great bass line in "where did the party go" (a realization i come to whenever i listen to "w.a.m.s" also)
― emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Monday, 8 April 2013 16:47 (eleven years ago) link
"where did the party go" and esp "miss missing you" are full prom dance
― J0rdan S., Monday, 8 April 2013 16:48 (eleven years ago) link
lol yes

it is with out a doubt the first record in a new chapter of fall out boy. we made this music for ourselves and no one else at the end of the day. this is meant be played loud, with the windows down on summer nights. four friends with our backs to each other fighting in the darkness against anything and everything that is out there. we bowed our heads, took a knee and plugged back in.
haha god dammit i love this band so much
― J0rdan S., Monday, 8 April 2013 16:52 (eleven years ago) link
got nothing but extremely entertained lols for "the mighty fall"
― emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Monday, 8 April 2013 16:53 (eleven years ago) link
good simple plan bite, big sean
"oh how the mighty fall / in love" is such a classic wentz lyric
― J0rdan S., Monday, 8 April 2013 16:53 (eleven years ago) link
the 'took a knee and plugged in' line made me irl lol so hard

"young volcanoes" is so good, i hear so many singles on this record
― J0rdan S., Monday, 8 April 2013 16:54 (eleven years ago) link
my girlfriend likened "young volcanoes" to train which has momentarily ruined the song for me

i guess i don't know whether to roll my eyes or to fist pump and cheer at somebody writing a song about the state of rock n roll in... 2013
nb without having heard the actual song, obv
― 乒乓, Monday, 8 April 2013 16:55 (eleven years ago) link
lol i was re-reading the infinity on high thread this weekend and i compared "what a catch" to train u_u
― J0rdan S., Monday, 8 April 2013 16:56 (eleven years ago) link
"young volcanoes" sounds like the most blatant fun. rip on the record tho
dudes you should've seen the way my eyes glimmered at the start of "miss missing you"
