A lot of the stuff released in FBR is catchy, but it's so limited. Why the hell does every band play the exact same type of music? It all sounds too similar and monotonous already... Fall Out Boy, Panic At The Disco, The Academy Is, Cute Is What We Aim For, Forgive Durden, even Paramore. I mean, FOB and PATD even have the same damn singer. FBR is cool, but I'm getting sick of so many teen-oriented pop bands.

Indeed.
And Fueled By Ramen will always hold a special place in my heart for bringing the Impossibles into my life way back when.

gym class heroes are pretty delicious. but yeah fall out boy and panic sound exactly the same, its no wonder why panic got signed so quickly without even playing a live show first. bands like that are ruining the music scene, especially for for all the hard working, self touring, DIY bands out there. what good does it do if the industry only wants FOB cookie cutter images? bring back the motivation to make music that is creative and diverse, without associating your band with pete wentz.

the album was out on FBR.
You gotta remember, the record label is a business. They'll sign whatever they believe will make money and at the moment catchy pop-punk stuff seems to be the IN thing. I don't mind though, I love that stuff.

FOB was good when they were on FBR...but when they moved to Island Records they went down the toilet...i especially hate that Dance Dance song...*cringe*
WakingTheMisery
03/04/06, 05:51 PM
dance dance is the only song off that album that was good.
FOB is on Island now. I like FBR for the most part.
And I don't really hate FUCT. Not their best effort, but whatever. I like about 6-7 songs on it.
Days Away is so underrated.

some fob of old...brief stint with recover and autopilot off showed a nice direction. maybe they should start signing bands that already have a name for themselves instead of trying to create more of the same band.
Days Away is so underrated.

Agreed. Best band on FBR. Then comes TAI... P!AtD are decent but nothing really special.
I'd just like to say that Paramore isn't on the FBR label. They are singed to Atlantic, they just released the All We Know Is Falling album with FBR to get their name out there. At least thats what I've heard.
This record label is an imprint label of Fueled By Ramen (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fueled_By_Ramen). Albums released under the Decaydance label are released by Fueled By Ramen, therefore they have Fueled By Ramen release numbers, and not Decaydance ones.

Not true. If you look on most FBR/Decaydance releases, Atlantic is also printed somewhere on the back of it.

Anyone who thinks fall out boy and panic at the disco sound the same has no right to talk about "pop-punk"or "emo" or whatever you want to call it. If you have actually listened to these bands cds all the way through then you must be retarded. That's just as bad as when everyone said FOB and MCR sounded the same. They're not even close. Saying that just makes you sound ignorant.

Fall Out Boy is on Island Records, not Fueled By Noodles, I mean Ramen.
And a label is a corporate group of individuals that sign bands based on their sound. So when you think of their label, you immediately think of a certain type of sound. It makes perfect sense to sign similar bands, that way you own that portion of the music industry.
DANCE DANCE is not a good song nor is it a Fall Out Boy song, some of you who like to comment on FOB need to do some research and "get some answers." There's another similar band reference, Cartel. Seriously, don't dish FOB if you only know SWGD and DD....

oh by the way fall out boy was fueled by ramen at first now there island

no here's the difference between P!ATD and FOB
P!ATD really sucks and is way overrated.
FOB is way overrated but is still good.
Jimmy Eat World was the best thing Fueled by Ramen ever had.
Okay, first off Decaydance is an imprint of FBR, not a separate label, and FOB still does have ties to FBR because I'm pretty sure they are still in control of TTTYG (although obviously not FUCT). I agree that FUCT isn't their best work, even if it does make an awesome acronym (personally I think that EOWYG is overlooked too much) but it's certainly a hell of a lot better than a lot of the crap out there - it's not really their fault that so many people copied them when they began to get more successful.

hell, FBR had a ten inch that had all my favorite JEW songs on it.
I probably like Clarity way too much though.
Forgive Durden have got that little bit extra, they deserve a lot more respect, I don't know how they can be on the same label as Cute Is What We Aim For..

So I thought Cobra Starship was on FBR, but at their show the other night, Gabe said they were on Atlantic. I've heard Jason say that FBR = Atlantic. When I interviewed Gabe, I went through Atlantic's publicity department. Does Atlantic own a stake in FBR? I'm kind of lost, does someone want to explain this to me?
