Fall Out Boy. I just caught the end of their "act" on TV. Hilarious crap.

Yeah, just saw that as well. I wonder if the guitarist started spinning around like that or if the bass player did first... and what, they other guy was like, "hey, that's cool how you spin around. Hey, do you mind if I spin around like that?" So then they both spin around that that while they play...





...and scene.

Precisely. I Don't know about you, but I can really get behind the big mouth bass look they were posing for.

I voted "Far out, man!"

Let me tell you gents that almost everyone in suburban high school loves this band. Sad but true. Do you know any place where I can find this footage? What show they were on?

It distresses me that they are shelved very close to the Fall. People, she might look at me at the store like I actually buy a record by this band Fall Out Boy.

-I would never buy a record by this band Fall Out Boy

-I would not go see a band called 'Fall Out Boy'

What is it, this Fall Out Boy?

What is it, this Fall Out Boy?

she is an appropriation of the simpsons. the latest in a long line of the bad shemopunk bands to do so for naming purposes. such sorrow.

first and foremost: CRAP.

i'll acknowledge that not only does almost every suburban high school worship these guys, almost every state college does as well. it's sad. it's true. it makes me want to sit every last one of them down and blast Rites of Spring into their ears for hours on end screaming "SEE?! THIS IS WHAT IT WAS! WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED?!"

anyway.

the only thing that makes me more depressed about Fall Out Boy is when people make a point of pointing out they're from Chicago. what the fuck difference does it make? music on that commercial level is so normalized anyway that it's ludicrous to suggest that its location of origin makes any difference in terms of the sound, visual aesthetic, or anything. as often as i can successfully ignore it, it still bugs me on occasion.

They are from Chicago? Which Chicago? Chicago, Illinois?

acording to the Allmusic database, they're from Wilmette, in specific. they say they're from Chicago, though. interpret that however you like.
