fall out boy

1. A Chicago-based band whose sound is characterized by crunchy metallic riffs and by stop-start rhythms, as well as sometimes cheeky, sometimes emotional lyrics.

Could be (and often is) described as part of the modern pop-punk emo movement, though it has to be noted they are far more rock-oriented and electrically charged than self-admittedly emo bands such as Dashboard Confessional.

Started out fairly indie but has since gained a huge mainstream "pop" audience.

Biggest hits include: Sugar We're Going Down, Dance Dance

Similar bands include: Funeral For A Friend, Panic! at the Disco

2. In the popular TV show The Simpsons, Fallout Boy is superhero Radioactive Man's sidekick.

2. "Radioactive man, look out!" screamed Fallout Boy.
