The Return of Fall Out Boy

yaeh i like the instrumentation on this. 2 chinaz sounds like hes sleepwalking tho

2 chinaz!

haha i typo'd that and immediately regretted having given up display names / not being active enough on twitter to change my name to that

these new synths are some lil' jon synths imo

2 fine chinaz

i dig it

courtney love sounds amazing on this album fyi

i'm harboring a suspicion that big sean is on this album simply to say "fall out...*boyyiyiyyyii*"

lmao

(this album is awesome btw)

i'm kind of getting emotional over the fact that pete wrote the lyric "blood brothers in desperation"

"Young Volcanoes" is pretty great, although it kinda confirms my suspicion that they've spent the last year stewing with Ruess envy

the rest of the album didn't sound very much like fun. to me

basically it sounds like the album that should have come after 'infinity on high'... it almost feels intentionally corrective to me

word

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

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

like...post-anna kendrick's "cups"?

yassssss

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

"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.

i basically pretend this album starts at "alone together" which is prob the most fall out boy thing on here

omg yesyesyes

i will take my fangirl ears off one I get over the excitment of omg a new FOB album imo

this album is just so good

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

i'm gonna tough it out til next week, ya'll have fun

HOLY SHIT COURTNEY LOVE

hoping that the love cameo is like marilynne faithful on metallica

marilynne faithful lol

i've not heard anything by her outside of her work with metallica, markers where u at

my heart is like a stallion fyi

this hews a lil close to green day for me, terrance malick will prob like it

the title track is prob the most fascinating thing they've ever written

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

so much fist pumping and woo in this I'm loving it

"phoenix" is so massive

otm

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

i love that run of the final 3 tracks at the end -- especially RatTatTat fkn courtney fuck yeah

i love when elton john pronounces "love" as "LUFF"

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)
