The Return of Fall Out Boy

... ok man

maybe you’ll be the one who’s lonely SIMON
*takes lunch & sits at Brad’s table*

<3

anyway i think this song is DOPE

the video is...weird
also is it just me or is Pete’s hairline receding?
(no shade)

the video is so bizarre. gonna buy me a patrick stump

champagne for my real friends, real pain for my shrimp friends

lol

i def would like a Patrick tho

also is it just me or is Pete’s hairline receding?

He's like 10°F from Neil Hamburger.

The video's awesome. The song is better than the last few, I guess? Guess we'll see tomorrow how this all shakes out.

Yeah this is very enjoyable record. Nothing quite as straightforwardly catchy as some of their other more recent stuff, but I think it'll hold up better.

heads up that the tracklist on spotify and apple music is in the wrong order (which is also, oddly, the order my promo was in). i much prefer the actual sequence

good to know

i cant wait to listen :D :D

That video clip is super distracting

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l3vbvF8bQfI

the real tracklist for anyone who's curious

1. Stay Frosty Royal Milk Tea
2. The Last of the Real Ones
3. Hold Me Tight or Don't
4. Wilson (Expensive Mistakes)
5. Church
6. Heaven's Gate
7. Champion
8. Sunshine Riptide
9. Young and Menace
10. Bishops Knife Trick

wait what, the spotify one is wrong?

yep

wtf

the corrected tracklist makes sense to me "stay frosty" is kinda weird as track 3 but is a storming opener

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_kqSj_BKuUc

for some reason they only uploaded the clean version of this song to youtube

anyway as usual with nu-FOB album tracks >>>>>> singles, thank god (speaking of which, lol at all the religious sounds/imagery)

"bishop's knife trick" is mayyyyyyybe their best closer

enhhhh the closer was the best thing on the last one so I'm not at all ready to say that

i'm right simon

Man this is reaaaaally good! Excitingly so

Like it’s not Folie ~amazing~ but there’s really no skippable tracks on this for me so far. American Psycho was v patchy & took me a while to warm up, so it’s good to be hooked in from the get go again. Maybe closer to Saves Rock N Roll?
anyway i’ve gone through this twice already today, no signs of stopping

Love Patrick’s singing on Heaven’s Gate

why is it rearranged on streaming services? i noticed a similar thing happened with 21 savage's album last year, but then it seemed like it was because of which songs were getting the most plays right off the bat to inflate full-album playthroughs. is this going to start becoming a thing?

hmm, never mind, i found this tweet from pete.

No no. It’s a long story why it’s going to be wrong in iTunes for a few weeks- it’s just how their system ingested the songs we already put out.

#petetweet

it is extremely frustrating trying to tell anyone that this band is good

(audience: "well brad then they should make better music")

i am totally obsessed with this record and i think it's def their best since folie, someone pls talk to me about it lol

I wish I liked it as much. I do think it's better than AB/AP but I kinda long for the (relatively) spacious sound of SRAR. and I still hate "Champion" and "Hold Me Tight Or Don't" a lot. and "Wilson" sounds a bit like "YOLO" to me lol

"Heaven's Gate" and "Church" make a v nice pairing and are definitely right up there with their best material

thinking Stump should do a devotional r&b followup to Soul Punk

yeah I would love him to an album of slow soul covers

Gave into this despite actively disliking all the pre-release songs. Skipped to the first track I hadn't heard, supposed album opener Stay Frosty Royal Milk Tea (track listing still not updated on Spotify). "Are you smelling that shit? Are you smelling that shit?" I don't want to smell that shit, Patrick.

eau de resistance

ew de resistance

EAU
DEH
RESIS
TOWNCE

it is a v corny chorus

don't do this much anymore but ahem

WOKE UP ON THE WRONG SIDE
OF P-PARADISE
WHEN I SAY I'M SORRY I'M LATE
I WASN'T SHOWING UP AT ALL

I REALLY MEAN I DIDN'T PLAN ON SHOWING UP AT ALL

(also hope there is some ilx fall out boy/gene wolfe fandom overlap btw cuz I'LL STOP WEARING BLACK WHEN THEY MAKE A DARKER COLOR)

having a very belated moment with this song

speaking of belated, Brad was right and I was wrong about "Bishops Knife Trick"

i'm always right

^^^

they surprise dropped an ep today, one of the tracks is a reworking of a folie-era track, "lake effect kid"

fall out boy are back baby

tim f and j0rdan s. to thread

pretty solid! I like the title track a lot.

remind me to put this song on my ballot for the ilm 77

fuuuuck yes

Patrick sounds so fucking good, it’s crazy that he keeps getting incrementally better, like idk where the ceiling is but yay everbody wins

Love From The Other Side out everywhere January 18th ✨ lots more to come soon ✨ pic.twitter.com/i2mnFYbZ57
