I don’t think FOB are overrated. The 2000s era holds so much that I can’t ever turn them down. Great video. I would definitely like to see more like this
Are they credited too highly sometimes? Yes. Are they a great band? Also yes.
Hated them then still hate them now can stand the singers voice
@The dog from Raditude. Fall Out Boy a “great” band? 😂 Wow people have some low standards.
@@nu-metalfan2654 of course it's the nu metal fan who says this.
@@lasteternal7611 well yeah, because I don’t know how a guy could listen to that PoP Punk Emo shit. Listen to bands that get the adrenaline going bro, none of that PoP Punk pansy shit.
Absolutely agree.
I'd say perfectly rated. They did make pop punk hits people still love decades later. Also dominated pop rock in the 2010s so they deserve their hype.
Here's why I would say they are NOT overrated, and this is coming from a casual fan (at best):
They've had misses, specifically the "Mania" album, but other tracks, also. But even the failures show that they're trying new things. Hit or miss, in this day and age, trying something new and different from what has been successful in the past is a bold choice, and they need to be recognized for that, even if it doesn't always work out.
Yeah, they could have gone full Nickleback and just kept putting out the same song with slightly changes after finding a sound that worked.
I agree! And while I prefer their older stuff, I think Mania is actually awesome. The Last of the Real Ones is incredible. It was very intentional that they opened up their style; Patrick has always had electronic influences, it just made sense to push in that direction for an album. My favorite FOB album is Folie á Deux, which also experiments with orchestra and R&B influences following two successful albums.
i’m glad they experiment & have grown each album. they’ve done great for 2 decades so they must be doing something right. MANIA had its flaws & a messy roll out but it had shining moments too. it’s just unfortunate that many older fans won’t even listen with an open mind. the boys have grown from teens to dads so it only makes sense that their music grew with them.
I completely agree that FOB are properly rated. their highs were high and their lows were low, and I'm very hopeful that this new album is a step back into a solid direction. Love from the other side is a banger
I love the band, if anything they’re underestimated in many circles. Mania is the only album I don’t care for but the new one out tomorrow is shaping up to be some of their best work yet.
Folie A Deux is still an S tier album for me.
Folie A Deux is possibly the best album ever made. Every song on that album is catchy and offers something new and interesting. Even Michael Jackson, The Beatles, Queen, Rush, Black Sabbath, and Pink Floyd had numerous duds that I skip every time on even their best albums.
I've hated every album since. Sure, there are some killer songs they've made since then, but 1-3 good songs on a 10-13 track record is pathetic. Listened to So Much (for) Stardust at least 3 times so far, and it's another dud for me. Heaven, Iowa is quickly becoming my favorite song ever, but I only like 4 tracks on the album, so it's pretty mediocre compared to even Take This To Your Grave.
Ok, this album really grew on me. It's now almost as good as IOH for me. Changing my rating from a 5/10 to an 8/10.
@@truthedministry Well you have to admit Save Rock and Roll is pretty incredible The only track I really dislike that much is the Mighty Fall, but I suspect that's mainly because of Big Sean
@@danielpatternson6149 Lol, that's one of the only tracks I remember from that album, because it's that is a clever turn of phrase, which is rare on their post hiatus albums. Most of their hooks rely on repetition of generic lines devoid of the same creativity shown in the lyrics of their earlier albums. I can't believe you like Young Volcanoes though.
@@truthedministry what I can't believe is that you say Michael Jackson and The Beatles have "numerous duds that you skip every time." Granted, I'm not a big fan of tracks like "Pretty Young Thing" and "I Want You (She's So Heavy)," but both Abbey Road and Thriller totally top Folie A Deux. And "generic lines devoid of the same creativity shown in the lyrics of their earlier albums" is very erroneous, as lyrics like "Wherever I go, trouble seems to follow I only plugged in to save rock and roll" rival some of the greatest lyrics I've ever heard. And, if you care so much about the quality of lyrics, you should be criticizing songs like The Beatles' "Love Me Do" and Michael Jackson's "Wanna Be Starting Something" since the lyrics in those songs are actually worse than FOB's entire discography.
As far as I'm concerned though, people who listen to music solely for the lyrics aren't music lovers.
It's crazy how a haircut and a beard was able to change Andy Hurley's looks that drastically. Biggest glowup in music history.
I'd say it's also the nicer body build and tattoos but you're mostly right
@@invisibilly1946 i think Andy has always had tattoos all over his body, it's just that he usually wore shirts that covered them up.
@@invisibilly1946 His body was always like that, he takes off his shirt in A little less 16 candles.
@This Ain't A Scene It's A Gah Dah Arh Rah! Ah very well! I definitely still see improvement in his build over time though. Mad props to him
They are definitely a band that you have to specify an era for when the term Overrated comes into mind.
Okay… been rocking with FOB since ‘05 and I’m not exactly here to reminisce with rose colored glasses and defend M A N I A as one of Fall Out Boy’s strongest albums (I agree that it has its flaws).
But I honestly don’t get the overwhelming hate on Young & Menace… if nothing else Andy’s drumming is epic AF on that song and worthy of recognition imo.
So Much (For) Stardust is really what Fall Out Boy in the current day should be. It’s not pandering by releasing another FUCT but it’s not trend chasing like MANIA it’s what a band who has aged and matured while acknowledging their roots sounds like.
Joe wanted it to be a full band album with no gimmicks
Properly rated is definitely a fair conclusion for them. FOB is one of my favorite bands ever but I think disregarding the hype from the fans who don’t like to admit the band can do no wrong, the 2000s output are enough to say that this band should deserve the love they get.
I don’t think you should judge a band based on 1 bad album otherwise Queen would be judged on Hot Space. Ignoring Mania I think all their albums are good, I particularly like Save R&R. Most of all though, they’re great live.
Personally, Mania isn't that bad. Sure, it's a lot more pop than their older stuff but the hooks are pretty good and they have some good tracks, like Hold Me Tight and Bishops Knife Trick. I'd say that American Beauty is somewhat worse. The hooks can get kinda annoying (Centuries comes to mind) and a lot of the lyrics are more weird than usual, such as Uma Thurman being nonsensical at times. There's still some good tracks, like Jet Pack Blues or Twin Skeletons, but in my opinion it's their weakest album.
Besides that, I agree with everything else you said.
@@luisgarcia1337 THIS! I agree with you. The moments I have issues with on AB/AP are harder for me to come to terms with than the overall vibes on
M A N I A. Sunshine Riptide and Wilson are two of my fav FOB songs.
All that being said though… Twin Skeleton’s is arguably one of the strongest album closers they’ve ever had. That song goes 0 to 100 and never lets up.
@@alexbecerramusic3820 yeah, Mania really isn't as bad as how it was shown to be in the video. What the original comment said about not judging bands by one album, can also apply to albums themselves by not judging the full project by the worst track. Young and Menace does Mania no favors and is an outlier in the album. The rest of the songs are much better, but still suffer from certain problems that hold the songs back.
As for Twin Skeletons, it does go hard for a closer and it's probably up there with other FOB closers like West Coast Smoker, and The Patron Saint of Liars and Fakes imo. Although, So Much (for) Stardust [the title track from the recent album] is also very good and probably surpasses Twin Skeletons imo.
@@luisgarcia1337 i quits like the songs from Mania when played live, but I don’t like them on the album. So perhaps it’s something to do with the production.
@@parishofrock2963 the production is a bit too much I will say. Young and Menace as well as Stay Frosty come to mind there. Church would also be a good example of a song that could've been much better. There's a video where Patrick breaks the song down, and plays a clip of him singing some scrapped lyrics that sound much more interesting than the ones that made it to the final song. There's also the LLAMANIA EP? Album? But it's a collection of 3 demos for Mania that were saved, that also show what the album could've been had they not decided to scrap it and remake it before release.
I've been a FOB fan since From Under The Cork Tree, and I'll happily be the only one who also loves their newer albums and classes Young And A Menace one of their favourite songs.
I actually like their newer albums if I gotta be honest
IKR?? post-hiatus era is so misunderstood. most of fob fans are strictly from pop punk scene and adjacents and these people will often say pop=bad when that couldn't be further from the truth. they managed to stay relevant for 20 years, it was a brilliant work of them.
Yet I liked those 2 albums when they returned. I thought they were there best. Fourth of July is truly underrated. Guess to each their own.
One of my favourite fob songs it’s an unreal sample
First 4 albums are so good! I don't think people can really argue that though they did fade in popularity in the mainstream. The "revived" themselves with Save Rock & Roll and it was a nice little comeback (commercially) record but I haven't listened to them much since then even though they really blew up due to tracks like Centuries & Uma Thurman on that next record. Patrick has a wonderful voice as well. Excited to listen to the new record.
Seriously disappointed by that album, but why is "Save Rock and Roll" the least Rock song ever made? What were they thinking with that? That's their album closer and title track, with Rock and Roll in the title and they make it this boring waste of a song...
@@truthedministry just like how your comment was a boring waste of time to read
@@zakkarystory2352 You are right. I should have labeled my comment "The last comment worth reading", then it would be your favorite comment ever.
@@truthedministry The title wasn't supposed to be taken seriously
@@danielpatternson6149 Which is why the song seriously sucks?
How about in this series, you do Nirvana next. I have heard tons of people saying they are overrated.
They(Nirvana) are not overrated.
I would opine/observe that Nirvana's "aura" was increased and risen after Kurt Cobain's death. I imagine (and have been told by those alive at the time) that Nirvana weren't held in as high esteem during their peak.
They kind of are?
Only continuing this series if this video gets good views. As of now, this and the first Overrated video I've done are not doing well.
@@Redrally they werent seen as legendary but they were definitely massively popular for a band playing the type of music they played. it paved the way for any other punk infused alternative rock that came later. they had rockstar status. any band that kurt was seen wearing a tshirt of got a huge boost in buzz at the time.
I agree with your assessment. They are too divisive to be overrated. Being overrated implies they are getting undeserved praise.
@NorCal Roamer. But FOB do get underserved praise.
@@nu-metalfan2654 Not from you. And not from the majority of people. Do you know what overrated means? When the majority of people say that something is overrated then that means it is, by the very definition, NOT overrated.
I always loved Save Rock and Roll and personally, despite not liking everything they did in the 2010s, I feel like they did the arena rock stuff well. I still love them despite their ups and downs
You summed it up perfectly. The 2000s for them great stuff. 2010s not so much.
Just because you or your band's style breaks down doesn't meant that you're overrated. There's a difference between a massive drop in quality from what listeners are expecting to hear from you, and simply not having the quality to back your reputation. Fall Out Boy is definitely the former, at least to me.
Man, this comment section sure does make me feel weird for being a mania apologist 😳
But nah, they’re not overrated - as someone who has enjoyed all their albums pre and post the 2009 hiatus, I can’t see them that way. They got me through some rough times.
shout out to the mania defender girlies. that record is so misunderstood.
'Is Fall Out Boys like New Vegas? Or is it more like 76?
Not sure if this was a joke but like just wanna point out that at 4:40 you used a fanmade version of the Folie à Deux album cover, and not the official one. 😭
Used to love this band when I was younger, now I don’t think they’re bad I just don’t care for them. You should do Sleep Token next.
i have one thing to say aboht mania: just because you dont like it, it doesn't mean its bad! just because it was not palatable for you, it doesnt mean its garbage.that album is a fucking masterpiece, people just don't understand it. I'm sick to my stomach of seeing people say pop/electro=bad.
Fall Out Boy are like a tale of two cities, pre and post hiatus... Its hard to measure them. I like Lukes overall opinion, that they are just kinda 'rated'
I think until SRAR they definitely were not overrated and in some cases underrated, especially in the Folie era. But everything after? 100% they're overrated lol. If people like their new stuff that's great and I'm happy that it's positively impacting people but I can't help but feel like they are only using like, 40% of their potential most of the time and can do much better. Like in the case of their new album, more guitar does not inherently mean it's better! I feel like you could replace most of the guitar with whatever synth/keyboard Patrick would've used otherwise and it wouldn't have made much of a difference. Just my opinion though
lol they can't be overrated if "fans" crapped all over their albums
I didn’t think they were overrated before and i absolutely don’t think they’re overrated now (after smfs). The amount of experimental sounds they brought into the (almost) mainstream scene is truly amazing and i think more people would think that if they listened through infinity on high od folie a deux. Save rock n roll and AB/AS were also good albums, not perfect or innovative (with a few exceptions like ‘twin skeletons’), but definitely good in that more pop-like direction they took. Mania is a controversial one but I still think it had its ups (church, stay frosty, hold me tight).
So much for stardust is the breath of fresh air the long time fans needed. A lot of older bands from the pop punk and metalcore scenes are coming back to their older sounds now and I think that’s great. After a period of uncertainty and trying to appeal to the masses, we’re going back to the roots and honesty in creativity.
2023 is already one of my favorite years in terms of new releases
I don't think they are overrated. Yes, the 2010's era was not what fans were hoping for, but that doesn't hurt how good the 2000's era was. Not to mention, the new album is really damn good.
Funny how this game out around the time of their newest album. I would say that people do give too much credit sometimes but they are still a great band.
That's really the gist of the band, their main decade of the 2000's was their peak of being overplayed, yet still enjoyable. The last decade...I tried...I TRIED but when my girlfriend had listened to the main single from Mania, I checked out from them and just stuck with the 2000's. To hear that snippet for their upcoming album, it looks like that going back to the end of the 2000's for their peak, with learning what worked and didn't work for the 2010's and hopefully get a better combo of both that everyone can enjoy again.
I'd say they're correctly rated too, they get overplayed, but they go get their listeners.
I would agree with the properly rated. They were great in the 2000s, but have been inconsistent pose hiatus.
I'd love to see you do Sleep Token. They blew up this year thanks to tik tok and I'd love to here your opinion
8:23 honestly I’d agree if I didn’t see nothing but negativity about them in the 2010s they can’t be overrated in a decade where they were constantly shit on imo
I wrote this comment regarding MANIA in the FOB sub recently and I think a lot would find it interesting (I will forever defend this album, its honestly one of my favorites by them):
I think it gets a lot of hate because people just don't get the song or look into the concept behind the album. I assume this because I don't really see or hear people talk about the meaning, just that they don't like it because differs so greatly from most of the rest of their music and it can be hard to digest.
MANIA is about the cycles and extreme highs and lows you feel when you're manic. The waves crashing represents the vast range of emotions that wash over you as you're building up to that manic state and also the dull emptiness you feel as that wave recedes back into the sea. Young and Menace represents the peak of that mania.
The lyrics are kind of all over the place as well as the music, as your brain would be in a manic state. The build up between the lines of "we've gone way too fast for way too long" and "I only wrote this down to make you press rewind" is IMO a perfect representation of that process of introspection that takes you to that next low then the kind of goofy "oops I did it again" that starts back up to the peak of "and send a message, I was young and a menace" then BAM, it cascades into an overwhelming and jumbled expression of emotions that doesn't really make sense.
The whole album is modeled around this concept, I love it so much.
@@theseth455 fair enough! Have you happened to listen to piano version of Y&M? I've really been digging the singles and I'm super stoked to hear the rest of the album! I think its gonna be awesome!
Save Rock N Roll was when they truly went mainstream and more 'pop' and lost a lot of their credibility as a serious and true 'rock n roll' band.
While not on the level of Nickelback, some people have made the comparison.
The songs still had more of an edge for a "pop" album
I’m subscribed!!! They are good but I’m not a die hard fan. I like most if the early stuff but not so much after the first 4.
I love them been a fan since 2004 and yeah they made some questionable music choices but I’m a fan and I’ll support them. I saw them on the Mania tour they sold out the forum and no one was bitching about anything.
i feel like they get trashed on too much for anything that doesn't match their first four albums. like people are insanely hypercritical of their stuff, and i say this as someone who agrees that mania was messy. im already seeing people have gripes about the new album still being pop oriented like okay??? did you expect them to go full back into the scene??? they literally SAID it wasnt that. like doesnt it occur to people that sometimes you just grow out of a genre if you arent vibing anymore. they've been comfortable with pop rock before, i dont get the hate for that now. they clearly arent doing pop stuff to please others anymore, bc all they hear is ppl begging them to just avoid pop at all costs.
I first heard Fall Out Boy around 2009. I don't think they were that popular in Britain. I hadn't heard of them before hearing one of their songs on a free compilation CD that came with an issue of Kerrang magazine. I thought they were ok, but not great, including their early albums. For me, they're one of those bands who has created some great individual songs, on mediocre albums. I won't be buying their new album.
I'm not a huge fan of their early albums either if I gotta be honest. It wasn't until Infinity on High, where I got more into them.
You can tell by the performance Patrick looked like he hadn't slept in years
I saw them during the Hella Mega tour with Weezer and Green Day at Summerfest. They were okay but I was there for Weezer and Green Day.
Still haven't seen FOB live so I can't speak much on that one.
definitely would like more of these videos
Yeah I'd say properly rated as an overall conclusion. 2000s - perfectly rated, 2010s - overrated (who is this for and why did people listen so much?)
Loving the new album so far. Some tracks are a grower, and that's what I'm stoked about!
The 2010s are better than some people say. I don't get why FOB "fans" went "Oh no, FOB went mainstream" when they already attempted it with Infintiy on High
I don’t think they are overrated…like many bands that come out hot in the beginning has issues finding where to fit as fans get older, music shifts so they try to adapt… sometimes not for the best. Lol I’m not a diehard fan but I do enjoy their music and always tune in to listen to their albums…they definitely had some bombs that left me saying wtf is this? But to this day my all time favorite song will be Dance, Dance..love it. I didn’t get to listen to the new album yet but I love the new single. It sounds like their old sound that I always enjoyed.
I listened to the album and I'm loving it! Got it on repeat.
Personally, I could at very lost, tolerate them. Right as they started with Sugar We’re Going Down. But very quickly couldn’t stand that song. The biggest reason was the vocals. Something always felt shrill yet flat to the singer’s voice for me. I couldn’t stand hearing their stuff. And their growing popularity only made me not stand them more, because again… that voice was nails on a chalkboard for me. The rest of the music was fine, the lyrics passable. I couldn’t say I hated them, but something between that and simply apathetic towards them.
I had to do a double take on the Folie à deux album cover with Monokuma lpl
It's good to keep people on their toes.
Great content as always.
I just listened to all of their stuff for the first time and…yeah. They’re overrated. The 2000s material has some great stuff but their super inconsistent and not the most talented with their songwriting or technical abilities. And they’re later material is, once again, inconsistent with some amazing tracks
Great video! I think you should do this with other bands who are labled as overrated such as The Beatles, Pearl Jam, Bon Jovi, Linkin Park, Green Day etc.
Only enough people watch this and the Overrated video I did. Views are really low upon upload for the first day so I don't think people are interested.
@MrSheed92. Linkin Park and Green Day are both massively overrated.
Bon Jovi are correctly rated how they are.
Pearl Jam if anything might be a little underrated.
The Beatles are only slightly overrated, my issue is people thinking they are the greatest band to ever live. And that praise belongs to the band that sang the greatest song ever in Stairway To Heaven in Led Zep.
@@RockedNet dang. Cause I feel like for me it’s a very interesting topic. Anyways I’m still subscribed to you and you are doing great with your content! Keep up the good work!
@@nu-metalfan2654 Stairway to Heaven is almost ten minutes long and feels way to similar to Let It Be (spades way better).
The thing is, the Beatles pioneered several music techniques and invented new chord progressions and hooks. Whether they're your favourite band of not, they're objectively geniuses.
@@danielpatternson6149 That’s not what I’m saying though, were The Beatles a pioneering genius band, of course they were.
But are The Beatles the greatest band of all time. No they aren’t.
Led Zeppelin imo are the greatest band ever, and Stairway To Heaven is the greatest song ever made, whether it’s a long song or not.
No they are not. The old Gold still outweighs the later Bronze. But the songs they dropped lately slap harder than an alcoholic stepfather
If anything, they are wholly underrated. I think people don’t pay enough attention to the brilliance of their music and lyrics. Pete & Patrick are the post modern Lennon & McCartney.
Sugar, We're Going Down is a damn good rock tune. Outside of that, I've never really been a fan
Patrick's solo album "Soul Punk"; CAUGHT ME OFF GUARD
Not really ever since mania the hates been pretty bad I mean they deserved it for sure but yeah I definitely wouldn’t say overrated.
2000s FOB was really good at what they did. I would say they are overHated. Their new stuff isn't as good as they used to be, but it's not horrible like MGK and 30 Seconds to Mars' new stuff.
Definitely leagues better than MGK or 30STM.
When they first came out no they weren't overrated,but now yes. They tried new things and it sucked. If they go back to there roots my mind will change. As of right now overrated
I just listen new album and it’s OMFG! Beautiful😭
man i was sweating, thinking you were gonna call them overrated, especially after the polls. kudos to your ultimate decision at the end, though. i'd say it's spot on
I was definitely their target demographic when they broke big in the 00s but aside from a handful of songs I never really got into them.
I’m in the minority in that i like the 2010s stuff better than the 2000s stuff. I think they’re an ok pop punk band but an exceptional pop group. I kinda like Mania too. I get the hate, I just disagree.
My advice for Mania or other albums you don't like is a quote from miles davis
"if you not making wrong notes your not trying anything new"
They used to be so good. I didn't care for Folie a Deux or anything after. Their songs ever since have felt processed, insincere, and even kinda dull.
I'll be honest, I only loved From Under the Cork Tree and after that their hits were fun and good but didn't interest me as much anymore. After that I just considered it solid music that didn't speak to me. Still wouldn't call them overrated.
Young and Menace was by far the worst song Fall Out Boy ever put out. After initial listen to the new album, I'm pleased. it makes me happy, a solid 7/10.
To me Fall Out Boy will never be as great as they once were. The pop-centric production choices, melodies and songwriting, and especially Stump's voice are nowhere near as enjoyable or engaging as they were in the 2000s and that continues with what I've heard from So Much For Stardust. 2005-2009 was their peak and everything after can't come close to it unfortunately.
Folks a dues is one of those underated masterpeoces that Casts a shadow on the rest of their discogagrathy
I've only met one person face to face that likes Fallout Boy... everyone else i know has said them and bands like them such as Simple Plan or 30seconds to Mars are the worst thing they ever heard and all i've heard makes me agree with them "emo" music in general has nothing for me
I would take the worst of FOB over the best of Simple Plan.
Oh yeah definitely. Too poppy and formulaic throughout even the 2000s. They don’t have anything new to bring to the table. I hate they ruined a great Simpsons memory for me
Fallout boy is one of two bands I’ve seen live. It was highly worth it and it was cheap for floor seating. I did hate that Jaiden smith opened for them but in general they were good concerts
I saw Jaden Smith open for them too. He ate the mic the whole time
@@XxHarounXx I didn’t even know blackbear was going to be there and didn’t even know who he was. But I looked it up on iTunes and recognized the album covers from being all over iTunes years before. I just never looked into it
I'm curious about the flip side to a video like this: if a particular, wildly successful but critically panned, artist is underrated. Certainly a lot of acts to choose from for a video like that.
They may not be overrated, but I certainly have little regard for a band that really has limited appeal to my demographic (I came of age in the 1980s). Give me a band that appeals to adults of all ages and I will respect them more.
I like a few songs but as a whole I’ve never exactly liked or disliked FOB so my answer is yes they are overrated
I think they are but I enjoyed their latest singles.
Classic Fallout Boy were pretty good but not great. Thanks for the memories is still an underrated banger.
Recent (last decade) Fallout Boy were/are bloody awful.
Seeing bands or musical acts like this have such success makes me sad, other bands deserve it Alot more.
I am going to see FOB in Tronto this summer during their tour. However, i am only going so i can see Bring Me The Horizon. I will leave after BMTHs set LMAO
They probably are, but it's always hard to balance a brief window of being great against a long stretch of being either bland or loathsome. The rating will depend on how easily you can forget all the bad stuff.
As a 30s something Dad, when Spidey & Friends debuted on Disney Junior a few years ago, I just KNEW that theme was sung by Patrick. Sure enough, it was him. Man, I'm getting old.
Yes absolutely! I can't stand any of the early 2000's pop rock bands
I will always stand by their 4 albums before the hiatus, especially Infinity on High. One of my favorite albums ever. After their return… … eh, American Beauty/American Psycho is alright IMO… that’s about it. I could take them or leave them these days.
I dont even care about Fallout Boy and I still have a soft spot for IoH. It's a sound that feels engrained into the decade for me.
if fob stopped after in 2009 they would have hands down a perfect discography.
however their new album rocks
I’m still an FOB fan to this day…
"For the love of god just hit the button"
Honestly the best way I have heard someone ask for subscribers :D
Have to make sure the desperation is clear.
I think the lyrics in the song In the Dark are abysmal. "My song knows what you did in the dark." Who wrote that and thought that sounded clever?
Iconic 00s Pop Punk Band
A MASSIVE YES.
I don’t know how the fuck Fall Out Boy, MCR, Paramore, Panic At The Disco and All Time Low got big.
They had great songs that were catchy that spoke to the teens of that time. It's not that hard to understand really. And besides, they all moved past the "emo" label that they were usually associated with or are not even considered emo by fans of the genre.
Oooh! A new format!
"Is [insert band] Really That Good?"
I can see why Fall Out Boy became superstars in the 2000s after pop-punk gave way to emo.
Definitely do one of these on Weezer
Only enough people watch this and the Overrated video I did. Views are bombing hard as of now.
When the majority of people think something is overrated that means that it is not by definition overrated.
Yes.
My personal ranking for fall out boy albums
Take this to your grave 4
From under the cork tree 1
Infinity on high 2
Folie a deux 3
Save rock and roll 6
Mania 8
American Beauty american psycho 7
So much for star dust 5
Yes
They had a couple songs that i really really liked. The rest are meh to me. More like one hit wonders.
Wait I’m so confused. Didn’t fans absolutely DESPISE Folie when it came out? Didn’t they like, boo them off the stage when they would play a Folie song?
I've got to be honest, in my opinion I think they are. But opinion is subjective and their type of music isn't really my thing. I think they were overplayed and overhyped and couldn't understand why people liked them so much. There were a lot of better bands around at the time that didn't get as much credit as these guys did.
Who's that guy to the right of breaking benjamin in the background?
Left = Trent Reznor/NIN
Right = Attila Dorn/Powerwolf
My bad, that is Trent Reznor, thank you
Maybe they were 20 years ago but is any guitar based "rock" band really held on a pedestal anymore?
