I'm going to admit that I never heard of Fall Out Boy until I heard "Sugar We're Going Down" on MTV. I fell in love with the song and proceeded to go out and buy their CD NOT because they were on MTV, but because I liked the music and could care less whether or not TRL put it on the number one spot or no. Since then, I have learned all the lyrics to ALL of their songs, even -GASP- the songs before MTV stuck their big ass noses into good music and twisted it into a "trend" they know will get them a big ass pay check. MTV is not worthy to be called "Music Television" as it no longer plays any "good" music anymore.
Many of you will be shocked to hear that FOB is not emo. Just because Pete happens to wear skinny jeans and eyeliner doesn't mean he has to wear this stupid ass lable that butt-fuck MTV exec's put on him. Anybody who calls them "emo", I have a special message for you: Shut up you incoherent asshole. Maybe if you would actually think with the brain God gave you and not with your ass, you might actually find some good bands. Stop calling them emo when you don't even know what the fuck it means.
And for all of you saying that Patrick can't sing, GO FUCK YOURSELF WITH THE MIC YOU "TRY" TO SING INTO BECAUSE, EXCUSE ME, PATRICK IS THE ONE ON STAGE SINGING AND YOU, MY FRIEND, ARE NOT.
I for one listen to Fall Out Boy because of the music and if Pete and Patrick just so happen to be attractive its a extra bonus. So shut the fuck up and if you don't like FOB, that's your business, not mine, but don't fill someone else's ears with your half-assed "rants" because, believe it or not, THEY might actaully listen to the music and not what these asshole magazines say about them or some fat ass music critic whose whole life has been dedicated to sitting around on his blubbery ass watching MTV and listening to whatever radio station he listens to.
Buttfuck#1: FOB is so emo. I'm going to listen to them just because MTV says to and this magazine says they're emo.
Buttfuck#2: Dude, I know. Maybe if we listen to Fall Out Boy and think Pete is hot people will think we're emo.
Me: SHUT THE FUCK UP. YOU DO NOT DESERVE THE AIR YOU BREATHE. YOUR CONTINUED EXISTENCE IS A WASTE OF SPACE.
(proceeds to kick their little wannabe-emo asses)
Buttfucks:(cry and go sit in a corner so their friends can take pictures of them and post on myspace to show how emo they are)

Here's an actual defenition, not JUST an opinion
A band from chicago formed around 2001. It consists of pete Wentz, Patrick Stump, Andrew Hurley, Joe Trohman. They are not I REAPEAT NOT, and emo band(see the get up kids for some). If anything someone could call them Pop-punk. In my opinion a very good band who's fans actually go deeper than what most of you think. Fall Out Boy did exist before they were on TRL, therefore their fans existed before TRL and thefore do not consist only of 13 year old girls who love guys in gril pants.
Catchy guitar riffs and unique vocals make their music better than anything you and your crappy yamaha bass could put out.
Urban dictiony person:Fall Out Boy is SOOOO Emo.
Actual intelligent Fall Out Boy Fan:You Fucking Idiot, no they aren't, listen to the lyrics you dumbfuck.

an amazing band that could be concidered "pop punk." This band consists of pete wentz, joe trohman, andy hurley and patrick stump. many people criticize this band and call them "posers" and "sellouts" which is totaly stupid concidering the fact that most of these people have only heard the songs that are concidered their "popular hits" such as "sugar we're goin down" and "dance dance." The band probably didnt expect these songs to get popular and its not their fault that mtv and trl decided to make them the "next big trend." this band is more than a trend and it always has been. Im not saying that every1 should like them, because its impossible to please every1. but i think fall out boy deserves more credit to their music, not just the "popular" stuff but some of their older music that is overlooked by the kids who are truly only listining to them because the are popular, or the kids who hate them because they've been on trl and get played on the radio.
fall out boy is an amazing band

Fall Out Boy are a band from Chicago, which split crowds right down the middle. Also known as FOB (for obvious reasons), the band consists of Pete Wentz, Patrick Stump, Andy Hurley and Joe Trohman. Pete Wentz is often judged by people lacking in information about him as a poser,and judged to be arrogant. He has made a few mistakes in his lifetime,including a dangerous overdose on the anxiety drug atavan, but from what I have seen he seems a geniunely nice guy-as do the rest of the other three.
Their sub genre is often disputed, often branded by (mis-informed) people as emo. I would say they are pop, but I love them and don't care what genre they are. Many of their of fans are hysterical obsessive girls. However this is stereotyping(which I try to avoid) and there is a large percetnage of their fanbase who actually like their music, whether or not they are on MTV or TRL-these fans tend to be incredibly devoted and loyal, and generally awesome, intelligent people :P. People who hate them often prove themselves in need of anger management sessions, and suffer from a pathetically limited range of vocabulary(often resorting to offensive terms like gay,fag, shitty ass etc.) Please, haters, don't be so damn bitter. Leave Fall Out Boy fans alone. Express your opinions in more mature ways. And for God's sake, by a dictionary!
Who ever said Patrick had down syndrome, this is EXTREMELY OFFENSIVE & NASTY.You are disgusting. Other than that, have a nice day.

The name is derived from the television show, The Simpsons, Fallout Boy is the young sidekick to the Superhero, Radioactive Man. Like Robin is to Batman.
The band Fall Out Boy is currently(2005-06) very popular. However, they give what is quite possibly the worst live performance of any major record label band currently out.
The guitarist and bassist insist on being in constant motion while on stage, including jumping in 360's, getting on top of amps, and jumping off of stage platforms, even though they are physically incapable of continuing to play correctly while doing so. The lead singer/second guitarist can neither sing, nor play guitar well, much less perform both tasks at the same time. This produces a stage sound and presence which is highly unnatractive, and very unpleasant to the ear.
Their songs are pop-driven, somewhat simple, yet varied, and feature many catch phrases that will be branded all over your friends' AIM profiles and Myspaces for the next few months.
Examples:
"Drop a heart, break a name"
"I'm just a notch in your bedpost, but you're just a line in this song"
"Sugar, we're going down"
"We'r always siffee ee eida sefehh fodah roongg teeee"
As the last quote demonstrates, most of their lyrics, even on the studio tracks, are indiscernible to the common person's ear. But not the 8th and 9th grade girls. They can mysteriously hear all of the lyrics and find great, deep meanings in them.
Girl: "OMG i loove Fall Out Boy, 'Sugar We're Going Down' is the anthem of my lifeeee"
Guy: "I think we need to break up"
Girl: *sad face* "I'm just a notch in your bedpost, aren't i?"
Guy: "Yeah, seriously, we're not even going to be friends anymore."
