    Fall Out Boy

    I am stuck in 1986. My wife on the other hand tries to stay up to date with today's music. She recently go into Fall Out Boy. SHe played some songs by them for me and I thought a couple we're hooky, but not great. She tells me to give them a chance.

    I told her I would defer this to the All Mighty Army to guide me.

    Should I give them a chance or not??

    Question:
    Do you ever want to get laid by your wife again?

    Would you like to have repeated (really good) sex with your wife in the near future?


    If you answered yes to either of these questions, let your wife believe that you like them.

    That is all.

    Don't think they have much of a career left in them. They're too closely associated with the EMO movement. When that fad tanks they'll go with it.

    I probably hate this band more than any other band I've hated before.

    Pure rubbish with NO redeeming qualities whatsoever.

    I refuse to consider them a real "Band"...........
    well, maybe a band of idiots but not in a musical sense.

    Be kind to your ears man, they deserve better treatment. Stay away from their shit at all cost.

    Ugh! Crap, crap, crap. Total rubbish. If your ladies are holding out the lovin' beacuse you guys don't like this shit, you best go trade them in.

    However, I do enjoy a good singalong to the chorus of their biggest hit. "We're going down, down...nananananana na na...I know you gotta complex, ya cock-eatin' bully."

    i totally agree man! this band is complete horse shit and no, the only chance you should give this band is an opportuntity to come out of the closet and tell the world that yes, indeed, they are all a bunch of flaming homosexuals. emo is some of the worst music my ears have ever had the displeasure of hearing, and it should be outlawed on public radio waves as well as any other form of media. if this is what america's listening too, just goes to show that america's kids have no balls anymore. instead of goin to a concert to rock out and come back with a sore neck, they go and cry and come back with sore wrists. it's a complete disgrace to anyone's well-being.

    They only thing I've heard was a clip played in a cell phone commercial and that was enough for me to hate them. No talent whatsoever.

    You know, every generation gets pissed about whatever the kids are listening to. I've given up. Nowadays? I just try to find the funniest fucking shit available. Fall Out Boy? Not very funny. I have no fucking idea what's going on there...quirky breaks. They suck ass. If you wanna dole out a quirky break? At least make it un-repetitive..and funny. Modest Mouse used to be funny...they had that one song where a cop car got hit. Now they've got some dude that used to be in The Smiths in the band. He's probably fucking their earholes by now...or anything he can find! It's a no-win situation when some faggot from The Smiths is fucking your indy eye socket during funny song writing. This is kinda off-topic, but Frank Zappa's "Crew Slut" is really fucking funny. Especially where the central scrutinizer busts' out the "she was sucking cock" line.

    Back on topic....that particular song was followed-up with another song by my favorite funniest band of the moment. Thirty Seconds To Mars' "YOU'RE KILLING ME!" song. This was on some fucking playlist I happened across....fucking straight out of "Crew Slut" into that shit where the dude is screaming like he's dying!! I fucking cried...Zappa's doo-wop shit followed by that screaming fucker?

    Don't touch that dial....

    It's corporate crap....

    Not a rock band, pure pop: maybe if you get out of the mindset that bands like this are being called "rock" but are actually pop you might actually be able to listen to it and take it as musical fluff - the songs are well crafted, but generic, they have fairly decent hooks so expect them to be in your head all day....

    It's sort of "entry level" heavy music for tenny boppers, like Green Day were around Dookie....

    Would we even call it EMO??

    It's just pure pop isn't it?

    Calling them EMO is like calling Green Day punk...

    Fag Out Boy is absolutely the worst band to rear it's ugly head in recent years. Every braindead girl about my age LOVES these pussies, and I still have yet to figure out why.

    You hit the nail on the head. Even worse, Guitar World, of all mags, had the nerve to put an interview with them right in the middle of a story on the "living legends" (Tony Iommi, Angus Young, Jimmy Page). Pure BLASPHEMY! Fag Out Boy and every Emo-scenester band needs to fucking DIE!!!

    Pure gayness just based on the choice of band name alone.

    Enough said. And there are many other bands just like them out there....all will be available in the 2$ bin at the local music store soon enough.

    It's ironic that we are all calling them "gay" "queers", "Flaming homo's" etc etc as they are probably getting more pussy than all of us combined...

    Admitedly, said pussys will still ressemble paper-cuts framed in cotton-candy....

    I don't like them either. But they do have one redeeming quality...they're not R&B or Hip/Hop.

    So, I'm kinda happy about the fact that they're popular.

    That is all.
    Sucks to be you! Me and my fiancee hate this emo shit. Guess I'll still be able to give her a G-spot tornado without shame. LOL

    I have mixed feelings on this Emo thing. I mean, I hate it and everything like that. I just think about how ridiculous the whole hair metal thing looked back in the 80's and I fear for being too hypocritical when it comes to slamming this genre.

    It's also ironic that most of the people referring to them as "fags" and "flaming homosexuals" probably have some of the previously mentioned hair band albums in their collection. Bands that (even if they were straight) appeared to be transvestites.

    Not to mention actual "flaming homosexuals" like Freddie Mercury and Rob Halford. And Pansy Division is a damn good band too, for that matter. Sexual orientation really has nothing to do with talent.

    Or lack thereof, in Fallout Boy's case.

    true, i do love 80's metal. so i guess you have me there. to me though, you can at least rock out to hair metal. a lot of them took it way too far looking like chicks, especially poison whome i'm not fond of anyway. although i didn't grow up in the 80's, when i look at that music it seemed like it was all about rockin out and havin a good time for the most part. and even if the band was just another copy cat band, they still at least had some good guitar riffs and still soloed. now it just seems that if you strum some power chords, nobody gives a shit if you can play well or not and soloes aren't even heard of on pop radio at all. it's not about rockin out anymore.....which is why i can't get into it.

    I admit that I was into the hair metal thing to an extent. I liked Ratt and Dokken, but when bands like Trixter started getting heavy rotation on MTV I was replused.

    Even as a young child, though, I got into great bands. I was 6 years old when I started listening to my uncle's cassettes and 8-tracks. Bands like Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, The Knack(whose guitarist is gay), Ted Nugent, Heart, Zeppelin, Cheap Trick, and of course Van Halen.

    When grunge came around I dove right into it. It was more like the music I had originally fallen in love with.

    I hate both emo & hair metal...When I think of, I only like Rock like the stones..
    Not only such rock, but it's the main thing I listen to.
