FOB in Rolling Stone
Just for any fob fans who may stumble across my blog...
Fall Out Boy
"I Don't Care"
This is how it works: the more embarressingly famous Pete Wentz gets, the more irrisistible Patrick Stump's power-pop-heaven choruses become. Yo, Wentz: Ditch Ashlee for Miley Cyrus and Stumpo might write Sgt.Pepper.

Fall Out Boy
Folie a Deux 11/4
Even though fob's fifth studio album is coming out on Election Day, fans shouldn't expect much political content. "Its the musical equivalent of crashing your friend's company's Christmas party, but on a mass scale," says bassist Pete Wentz. Folie a Deux tones down the vocal bobbing and weaving and R&B influence of 2007's Infinity on High, focusing on tight rock songcraft. "I want to make pop art" says singer Patrick Stump. Lead single " I Don't Care," which marries a John Lee Hooker-style boogie with a massive glam hook, follows through on that promise. Wentz is especially pumped to gain one new fan: "The coolest thing is that this is the first record I'll get to play for my kid."
