The Return of Fall Out Boy

Happy for ILM to take me by the hand and lead me into the light on this issue.

i think "alive with the glory of love" is possibly the greatest emo song ever recorded but i don't the rest of the album quite matches up

that song

yes

i think "alive with the glory of love" is possibly the greatest emo song ever recorded but i don't the rest of the album quite matches up

okay yeah but the rest of the album nearly matches up

"spidersong" and "every man has a molly" and "yellow cat/red cat" which is incidentally an incredible slow burn

Do I need to be checking out Brand New and Saves The Day also

duh

Best Saves the Day albums are Through Being Cool and Stay What You Are, imo.

idk actually bc neither brand new or saves the day "crossover" exactly. like, brand new is pretty uniformly grim, and saves the day are amazing but extremely entrenched in pop-punk and emo traditions until in reverie where they decide to sound like weezer (and it's their best record imo but i'm alone in that)

one thing i'd recommend actually is taking back sunday's louder now, which wouldn't be on a lot of Best Emo Crossover lists but is a crucial record in that it creates a lot of the space that infinity on high would expand on the next year. this may be a false narrative but it's kind of how i experienced it

like, produced by eric valentine, sounds like a million bucks, released within the time "sugar we're going down" and "i write sings not tragedies" became massive on radio

déjà entendu is alltime as is Thursdays war all the time. When I get home ill look thru my emo albums for other reccs

oh sweet jesus i leave tim alone for 5 minutes

haha don't worry I'm listening to Trick Daddy at the moment.

emo in the wind

fall out thug

thug this to your grave

btw the first two panic at the disco records are essential tim even though they don't feature trick daddy

okay i'm on it.

Maybe once i've started collating these I will start a 'Tim listens to emo-crossover' thread.

nine in the afternoon was awesome too re panic!

"death valley" was the only song i was sort of indifferent toward and now it's enormous

omg @ courtney

i like how it sounds like she's doing the token Pete screamo rant of the album

The first two tracks have grown on me but so far, this does not click with me anywhere near as much as Folie a Deux. No "Disloyal Order" or "Coffee's for Closers" here. (Admittedly, Folie took a little while to grow on me too.)

that album was super immediate for me. happy to give this one time, though.

it kinda reminds me of the distorted PA shouting off of danger days

This album kinda reminds me of Marilyn Manson's Mechanical Animals, in a good way.

the drum outro on 'young volcanoes' makes me wish that fall out boy would cover 'monk chant' ... the thought of which is exploding my brain

I missed out on the brief emo canon tangent above, but I would nominate Midtown's debut as a dark horse candidate

OK, I'm pretty hooked right now. "Young Volcanoes" is the only one I skip. "Alone Together" is pretty great. I'm not sure which R&B artist it reminds me of.

"Alone Together" is pretty great but WTF at skipping "Young Volcanoes".

yeah flagged u for that sund4r wtf

ban sund4r

all in favor

i think i only like the first 4 songs + "miss missing you" *ducks*

BAN CRUNCH TOO

its cool i had a good run

i won't lie, i will miss u

ill petition for a spec dispensation 2 still post on proj runway threads, dont worry

whew

remember how i couldn't listen to "young volcanoes" upthread? "young volcanoes" is the BEST

unban bradnelson

you know i only wanted fun / then you got me all fucked up on love

i thought i wouldn't really give a fuck / but now a bitch all in love

^^

Updated thoughts now that I am the proud owner of this album

a)Young Volcanoes is proof that fun. should be fired. Go peddle yr lameass whoa hoa hoas elsewhere, fun. FOB OWNS U

b)Miss Missing You makes me want to go to prom. who wants to take me to prom

YOU SAID I'VE SEEN BIGGER SHE SAYS I'VE LIT BETTER AND THEY THROW THE MATCHES DOWN INTO THE GLITTER

let's talk about daft punk less and this more

yes, this album is awesome

YOUHE SAID I'VE SEEN BIGGER SHE SAYS I'VE LIT BETTER AND THEY THROW THE MATCHES DOWN INTO THE GLITTER

fixed myself

i was driving from NY to Philly yesterday and falling asleep at the wheel -- blasting this album really loud and singing along surely saved my life

i'll take your heart served up two ways

the "so we can take the world back from a heart attack, one maniac at a time, we will take it back" part is just
