Fall Out Boy Begins Recording New Album

[Jared Kaufman]

Fall Out Boy (http://www.absolutepunk.net/falloutboy) is entering the studio today to officially begin the recording process for their new album. Pete offered some details, which you can read below.
We officially went into the studio today. We are going to be recording somewhere between 12 and 15 songs and should end up with about 12 or so on the new record. Yes, there are love songs. Yes, there are songs about the world around us (more than just stupid boys in bands singing about infamous girls), but there are a bunch of those songs as well. More updates on songs and new record very soon. Expect to hear the first single this winter and the new record very early next year.

[AShannon04]

cool.

[Scuba Chris]

Pete is soooooo HOT!

[Steve Henderson]

So it sounds pretty "typical" for their sound. But earlier in the year, they were touting it to be "way different."

So, thematically, is it the same and it will sound different? Or was that just lip-service that bands like to dish out without thinking?

[MikeJames]

Can't wait for that infamous VFW hall / community center tour.....

[Scuba Chris]

I think it will have more of an R&B feel.

[Ryan Imhof]

omg like 7th reply!

[xllirikx]

great! not.

So, i guess the CD will be nothing like TTTYG. GAAAAAY.

[mat1419]

I just hope they don't go the way of Yellowcard...I think Pete knows how to keep the money flowing though

[PEPSI]

looking forward to this..i had no idea they were heading into the studio any time soon.

[IsraeliPunkGirl]

That's so cool, I can't wait for the new album.
I hope they won't change the style because of their sucsess.

[Garett Press]

That's pretty cool of them to keep the music coming. Gotta respect that.

[jfb392]

Hopefully they dont make music for the n00bz who like them, and listen to themselves.

[noles05]

We have to take our clothes off!

[ThatGuy]

We have to take our clothes off!

no way you've ever heard the song they sampled that from

[Steve Henderson]

That's pretty cool of them to keep the music coming. Gotta respect that.
This is very true.

[noles05]

no way you've ever heard the song they sampled that from

COOL!

[KB3RG]

I wish it would sound like TTTYG but it wont happen. No matter what they come out with people will buy it though

[jfb392]

I wish it would sound like TTTYG but it wont happen. No matter what they come out with people will buy it thoughI thought the band cleared it up that they didn't want to make a TTTYG2..

[ThatGuy]

COOL!

the internet is your best friend

[lostntheseethru]

this gets more and more exciting.

like i dunno...im just used to bands being like oh yea we'll go in the studio soon and make a new record, then like a year later still no record...so its cool to hear them say yea we are officially in the studio and yes this is whats going on.

[KB3RG]

I thought the band cleared it up that they didn't want to make a TTTYG2..

I am pretty sure they said that too but one can only hope

[Katie Schmitz]

OMGzz!

[Katie Schmitz]

I am pretty sure they said that too but one can only hope
I'd definitely take a TTTYG pt. deux.

[zerock]

hope they make the best record they can make..whatever

[Jared Kaufman]

Hopefully they dont make music for the n00bz who like them, and listen to themselves.
I so read that as n00dz at first, and it kinda made sense.

[PunkENG]

This band is soo fucking gay. They should just stop sucking each others cocks and start going on tour with Jessica Simpson. I have an urge to go out and buy Fall Out Boy's action figures along with MCR action figures and burn them in my oven, but I'm afraid of the nasty toxic fumes their shit spewing asses will give off. MCR = gay, Fall Out Boy = gayer, Hawthorne Heights = gayest.

[zerock]

they can make the best record rather or suck my $%ck... it's their choice B-)

harsh.. I don't think anyone else cares enough to do that.

[pretty_in_punk3]

that's pretty fast, they won't be taking very long to record it i guess....i pray that won't mean a crappy outcome...but maybe it will suck and everyone will hate it and yea that'll never happen....

[lostntheseethru]

I'd definitely take a TTTYG pt. deux.while that was an awesome record...i dont want a TTTYG2...i want something else

I so read that as n00dz at first, and it kinda made sense.
hahahahaha...whats on your mind this morning jared???

[Mark Orr]

I have faith that this will be decent.

Owned by a working title to a song by the band you just hated on.

[PunkENG]

Man I love pissing off you teenage emo kids on this website. The thing is MCR, Fall Out Boy, Hawthorne Heights, and all of the bands of Victory (excluding Voodoo Glow Skulls and Catch 22) write and play music that is so utterly bad that its like they are insulting themselves. When they learn to write songs about the problems really going on in this world then maybe I'll give them a listen, but I've been out of high school for 5 years and man I didn't even listen to this kind of shit music when I was in junior high. So go put on your eyeliner, your jeans you bought in the girls section, and keep your long ass hair in your eyes because the world knows that your just a pussy little pseudo depressed high school kid who thinks scremo is hardcore. Have fun chilling in Hot Topic!

youre such a badass

[iihungrieii]

its nice to see them get back into the studio so quickly. its annoying when a band takes 3 years to come out with another cd

[lostntheseethru]

youre such a badass
i thought so too...

i mean what is more bad ass than going on a message board and bashing bands?? seriously...i bet no one has ever done that before...sooo punk rock of him

[zerock]

PunkENG: you love to come to a forum and piss off high schoolers? that's just sad.

[beggingthesky]

wasnt there a post on ap here recently about how island was trying to stop them from recording so soon or something to that effect?

Hawthorne Heights is the only band on Victory that you called "gay".

[zerock]

wasnt there a post on ap here recently about how island was trying to stop them from recording so soon or something to that effect? yeah i read that too, i guess they failed.

[PunkENG]

I know FOB and MCR aren't on Victory. Every band on victory are lame whiney screamo bands. Hawthorne Heights is just the leader of the screamo kids with Silverstein the second in command. VGS and Catch 22 are just so out of place on that label full of whiney, long haired, mid-west suburbia kids with too much time on their hands.

Go rant somewhere else, this websites to big for "punk" folk like you.
And honestly, I don't think you even looked at some of the bands they have..

[thatsignant]

that's pretty fast, they won't be taking very long to record it i guess....i pray that won't mean a crappy outcome...but maybe it will suck and everyone will hate it and yea that'll never happen....

the best albums in my opinion are recorded in short periods of time, Tell all your Friends was recorded in like 2 weeks and I'm pretty sure TTTYG was recorded in around the same period of time. When you take too long in the studio you tend to want to tweak every little thing when it doesn't need to be done. Just my opinion.

[The Revisionist]

So it sounds pretty "typical" for their sound. But earlier in the year, they were touting it to be "way different."

So, thematically, is it the same and it will sound different? Or was that just lip-service that bands like to dish out without thinking?That little news blurb didn't seem to mention anything about "sound" so much, just lyrical content.

[lostntheseethru]

When you take too long in the studio you tend to want to tweak every little thing when it doesn't need to be done. Just my opinion.i agree...

also the longer it takes the more time people think about what it "should" sound like and a giant hype is created. its easier to fail that way. i dunno im not trying to act like i know what im talking about. im just saying from observing the way people act on here, the less time it takes for bands to make cds, the better the outcome usually is on here...

[The Revisionist]

P.S. If you guys had any brains of all, you would just ignore PunkENG and when he realizes that nobody is giving him the time of day, he would just waddle away. You are just giving him more ammunition.

STUUUUUUUPIDS!

I don't know some of the bands of Victory ha ha. Hawthorne Heights, Silverstein, Aiden, it doesn't matter because their all whiney mid-west screamo bands. About Fall Out Boy relating to this well they have the same fans. High school girls and "tough" emo kids.

Good point! I shouldn't even be wasting my time dissing on spoiled little suburbia kids and their shit music. Good music lasts forever. FOB and MCR will be gone in a few years anyway while bands that play quality music (NoFX, Bouncing Souls, Sick of it All, and Ignite) will still be releasing amazing albums like they were in the 80's and 90's. I'm gonna go back to Punknews and enjoy the new Falcon song.

that's pretty cool that you would drop over $100 to make a statement to yourself that would make you feel more badass and "punk"

Seriously, grow up. If you are that much better, why the need to make others know it? Why not just go about your own business? I don't listen to MCR or HH, but I don't take time out of my day to shit on them or those who listen to them. So, do yourself a favor and grow up. Maybe you've already returned to PN.org and won't see this, but if you do, please consider it.

Do you realize that you sound like the biggest asinine fuck that has ever graced this website. First of all, most of the bands on Victory aren't "mid-west screamo bands, alot of them are from Long Island. (Sidenote: I hate most of Victory as well, but they had nothing to do with this discussion) And if I'm not mistaken...doesn't The Falcon have Dan Andriano in it? Didn't he like...just come off of a tour with My Chemical Romance a little while ago? Don't get me wrong here, I love Alkaline Trio, I love MCR and I like Fall Out Boy alot, there are all talented bands in what they do. MCR has its roots pretty deeply seated in the "punk" or "hardcore" scene of New Jersey, they just didn't feel like playing the same bullshit four-chord "punk" crap that has been repeated over and over again. Grow up dude, you make me ashamed that I like NOFX and Bouncing Souls and Catch 22 as well.

i loooooove hearing this from people like they are the first people to ever say this on this site. man, i wish i could be as hardcore as you and listen to totally awesome music.

Tell Dan Perrone I said hi.

[KidLightning]

I'd definitely take a TTTYG pt. deux.
i wouldn't . . . i mean it's a great album and all, but that sound has been beaten to death and i think the guys in fob are much better songwriters (and probably musicians) than people give them credit for. i know that their new album probably won't be groundbreaking but i'd like to see them keep progressing and developing that TTTYG and FUCT sound that made them who they are, by combining it with their other influences and new styles. especially given some of the stuff patrick has worked on this past year, i'm quite excited to hear what they come up with

Patrick is an amazing musician, and I don't think he'll get the real credit he deserves while he is in Fall Out Boy. I mean, he'll get world wide recognition, but alot of people won't take him as anything more serious than another pop-punk guitarist, no better than Tom Delonge or whatever. I'd like to see Patrick do some acoustic R&B stuff. His vocals on the new GCH record and that acoustic version of the Ne-Yo song were incredible. Even the acoustic version of Sugar We're Goin Down re-sparked my attraction to that song after it was long since killed video radio over-play.

For someone who claims to have been out of high school for 5 years, you still sound like you're about 16 or 17. If I was a betting man I'd say....no college? or maybe junior college? Get back to me on that, thanks,

No, I just graduated UCLA with a degree in Mechanical Engineering. I just am bored at work and nothing keeps me more entertained or occupied then bagging on bands that I don't like and seeing people get mad about it and mad at me. If it would make anyone happier I can bag on a band that is crappier than FOB, MCR, and HH....Avenged Sevenfold (after Waking the Fallen).

Fair enough. But, usually, after one goes through college they realize that there's just more important things to worry about than ripping on easy targets (such as FOB or MCR). Judging by your profile picture, you're not as unique as you probably think you are (studded belt? Man, if I hated Fall Out Boy or My Chem as much as you claim you did, that'd be the last thing I'd wear). Just some food for thought,

I know I'm not unique, if I was bagging on bands like FOB and MCR then I wouldn't be unique because pretty much everyone does it. I don't try to dress the scene either, but I assure you you'll never see me caught in a pair of chick jeans wearing an underoath shirt with a huge mop of hair on my head.

I don't know some of the bands of Victory ha ha. Hawthorne Heights, Silverstein, Aiden, it doesn't matter because their all whiney mid-west screamo bands.

I don't know man, you look pretty "scene" to me. You might not wear an underoath t-shirt, but I really couldn't tell you apart from all the other Warped Tour minions.

[grace we bestow]

does anyone know where they are recording?
Most likely California.

[poppa Q]

looking forward to this..i had no idea they were heading into the studio any time soon.You must have been in the fridge too long, this isn't any new news!

And everyone missed the most important part of this thread: there's a new Falcon song?!

I don't know man, you look pretty "scene" to me. You might not wear an underoath t-shirt, but I really couldn't tell you apart from all the other Warped Tour minions.Phil is pwning PunkENG...so calmly at that. Well done, sir.

i think chick jeans are lame on dudes. but you know whats even more lame? red pants. who the fuck wears red pants? aren't you supposed to stop dressing like a jackass when you get a real job? or are you trying to keep it real and not become your dad?

[The Revisionist]

The Falcon is great, by the way.

[lostntheseethru]

I resent that. I love the mid-west. Plus, isn't Fall Out Boy the only mid-west band you listed?
hawthorne heights is also midwest...

Sweet, someone with some good taste in music!

Sweet, someone with some good taste in music!

oh, i bet tons of people on this site like the same music you do...i listen to some stuff you like...but i hate it when people (like you) have to criticize stuff that you consiter "scene"....right......like punk rock isnt scene either...you are the biggest hipocrite.....i bet you probably bought those red pants and studded belt at hot topic or some other trendy store....get over yourself....go fuck your mother.

hawthorne heights is also midwest...

[dukeboy1986]

Who is producing the new record? Is it still Neil Avron for a few songs and Babyface on a few?

[CountMeOut923]

pete is smarter than you think. he is a marketing guru-just look at him. i think that this album is going to lyrically probably stay in the regular but musically I think they are going to do something different-i'm excited for them.

yellowcard killed me with this new album-pretty horrible.

So it sounds pretty "typical" for their sound. But earlier in the year, they were touting it to be "way different."

So, thematically, is it the same and it will sound different? Or was that just lip-service that bands like to dish out without thinking?

you just completely discounted the actual music by saying this. everything's not lyrical content.

i wouldn't . . . i mean it's a great album and all, but that sound has been beaten to death and i think the guys in fob are much better songwriters (and probably musicians) than people give them credit for. i know that their new album probably won't be groundbreaking but i'd like to see them keep progressing and developing that TTTYG and FUCT sound that made them who they are, by combining it with their other influences and new styles. especially given some of the stuff patrick has worked on this past year, i'm quite excited to hear what they come up with
THANK YOU.
it's ridiculous to me that people want to keep listening to the same music/album over and over again after it's long been played out.

[PunkENG]

oh, i bet tons of people on this site like the same music you do...i listen to some stuff you like...but i hate it when people (like you) have to criticize stuff that you consiter "scene"....right......like punk rock isnt scene either...you are the biggest hipocrite.....i bet you probably bought those red pants and studded belt at hot topic or some other trendy store....get over yourself....go fuck your mother.

Maybe I'm a hypocrite, but I assure you I'm not a "hipocrite". I bought the red shorts at the dickies outlet store for $10 since you are so interested. Yeah I criticize the scene, but mainly I criticize because the music those bands play just sucks. Isn't FOB on Kidz Bop that CD where little kids sing songs. I bet there on NOW 2000000 also.

No.

Um, perhaps that is why I asked this:

"So, thematically, is it the same and it will sound different?"

Yeahhh.....

[Steve Henderson]

Yeah but Dickies Outlet is teh punx.

[werealldudes19]

No wonder you have so much pent up anger, your profile says your from Sacramento. It's all coming together.

True story...
I was at a Simple Plan/MxPx show (no cred I know, but I've never had any) at Roseland in NYC and I was standing in line waiting to check my backpack. A convo went like this:

15-YEAR-OLD-GIRL: Are you like an accountant or something?
ME: Pardon?
GIRL: You look like you're an accountant?
ME: How so?
GIRL: I don't know, you look like you don't usually go to shows like this.
GIRL'S FRIEND: Yeah, you look like an accountant (snickering).

FYI: I have blonde hair, blue eyes, my hair is ocassionally spiky or messy but whatever. I usually wear t-shirt, shorts, or jeans and polo shirts and, you kids are right, it shouldn't matter. My point being here is that "punk" was initially started as to not comform with the norm but now, since I wasn't conforming with the usual ideas, I was being labeled as an "accountant" (I work in advertising actually). So what gives with this?

For the record, Fall Out Boy isn't on Kidz Bop, I think they were on one of the NOW CD's but honestly who gives a shit about that? The NOW CD's are all major label politics which, as I'm sure you know, is what happens when you sign to a major. If you like the tunes, listen to it, if not, don't. And what inspired you to by Dickies? I'm sure it wasn't because of your inclination towards the shorts. You bought them because the bands you like wore them and therefor, you thought it'd be cool which is fine, but just admit it.

P.S. The Suicide Machines are awesome.

yea, because parents want their kids to be on a cd singing "i only want sympathy in the form of you crawling into bed with me"

R.I.P Suicide Machine
Too bad they broke up in LA at the Troubadour. I was at that show... pretty sad. Hmm I've been wearing dickies for the last 7 years so it was probably some band I listened to back in high school. All I remember is I listened to a lot of NoFX and Pennywise back then.

Yeah, I remember seeing them at Warped Tour '00. That was my first Warped. Green Day was there too (right before Warning came out). They were a great live band. NoFx and Pennywise were always ok to me but they never seemed to progress at all.

that was my first warped tour.....my first time seeing NOFX and the Suicide Machines.....they are both really fun bands to see live....and NOFX are funny as fuck.

[MotionIsntMeaning]

pete is smarter than you think. he is a marketing guru-just look at him.

true story.

[RomeoAGoGo]

this band sucks

[love_american_style]

that dosent offend me....i actually love it here.

[FOBPrettyNPunk]

Good news.

[PunkENG]

that dosent offend me....i actually love it here.

I just say that because as a LA guy I'm supposed to hate Nor Cal, but pretty much I just hate their sports teams. Everyone here is so fake and full of themselves especially in Orange County. Just like the NoFX song says "We want to burn Orange County Down".

well i'm from norcal and i hate the bay area.

[Ruggiero2oo8]

awesome.

[basementsong]

hearing them play honorable mention was the best thing to ever happen at any of their shows I've been to this year.

[Lehcar]

At one point in time, Pete said it'd be like a cross between Michael Jackson and Take This To Your Grave. What happened to that idea?

[Chris Fallon]

Not many bands who get the success Fall Out Boy has gotten go and record a new album a year later, and I just think it's very cool and very humble of them to putting music out quicker than many successful bands do.

[DivisionStreet]

I just hope they don't go the way of Yellowcard...I think Pete knows how to keep the money flowing though

Yeah, since that is what it should be all about.

[N8IVIin0rity]

nofx sux.

[Sailor Tattoos]

that's really awesome that they're getting the new music out so quickly

[Sailor Tattoos]

well, i guess under the cork tree has been out for a good while now... but still awesome news

[McSavah]

Cool.
