Fall Out Boy vs Wikipedia

[Jason Tate]

Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fall_Out_Boy%27s_fourth_full-length_album) (yeah, we know how reliable that is) has an article up (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fall_Out_Boy%27s_fourth_full-length_album) on Fall Out Boy (http://www.absolutepunk.net/falloutboy)'s "upcoming" album. The page has a supposed tracklisting and album title. Take it as you will.

[Drew Beringer]

A lot of those song titles are fuckin sweet.

[Joe DeAndrea]

Eh..I don't know if I believe that and woah, the news posts are different.

[Drew Beringer]

I like how we are on the external links.

[xearlynovemberx]

that would be an amazing tour...

[Joe DeAndrea]

I like how we are on the external links.

Hahah and it's not even directed to a specific news post about an article confirming one of the track names.

[*crying stars*]

A lot of those song titles are fuckin sweet.

"Gay is Not A Synonym For Shitty" is a good one.

[Joe DeAndrea]

A lot of those song titles are fuckin sweet.

I can't see why they'd name their album Thiller. Only time will tell though.

[loganmmm]

Humm.. I dont want to see The Academy Is.., Gym Class Heros, and Gabe as support for Fall Out Boy. I've already seen that tour...

2005 Fueled by Ramen tour: Fall Out Boy/Midtown/The Academy Is.../Gym Class Heros.

[Jason Tate]

I can't see why they'd name their album Thiller. Only time will tell though.
Why not? It'd be an insane maneuver that would guarantee press and discussion.

[xearlynovemberx]

Why not? It'd be an insane maneuver that would guarantee press and discussion.

Agreed

[MKEcasey]

I think taking JM out on the tour would be a good pick. Between that tour and the current Panic tour, it would really give Jacks a big push.

[Joe DeAndrea]

Why not? It'd be an insane maneuver that would guarantee press and discussion.

I don't know, I just see it as a little unoriginal on FOB's part as it being the name of a Micheal Jackson record.

[Get Fucked]

Why not? It'd be an insane maneuver that would guarantee press and discussion.Aside from giving me a good laugh.

[zclark]

Agreed

indeed.. i would shit my pants if anyone without a child named blanket and a rollercoaster in their backyard named a record thriller.. that would be fucking hilarious

[Jason Tate]

I don't know, I just see it as a little unoriginal on FOB's part as it being the name of a Micheal Jackson record.
Uhm ... haha ... that'd be the point.

[SePaMc]

I'd go to that tour...I wasn't able to go to Fueled By Ramen and Friends...

And club tour prior to the new album? Soooo down.

But I doubt any of this is legit. Who knows.

[fedhed7]

A lot of that seems legit. I believe this.

[ilovebrandnew]

omg that tour would be SO amazing.

[mikearduini9]

Where did they pull this information from? Is this some kind of user submitted (to Wikipedia) leaked information?

[MKEcasey]

Thriller would definetly generate a lot of buzz on the band. But I think the new album alone will create enough buzz. FOB is pretty creative when it comes to song titles, I am sure they could come up with something just as catchy/clever/original/whatever for an album name too.

[Jason Tate]

Where did they pull this information from? Is this some kind of user submitted (to Wikipedia) leaked information?
:shrug:

No idea, it showed up in our news queue.

[Get Fucked]

:shrug:

No idea, it showed up in our news queue.He means who put it up on Wikipedia.

[earlynovemberX]

I don't know, I just see it as a little unoriginal on FOB's part as it being the name of a Micheal Jackson record.

wow

[JohnnyG]

some of the song titles are really good, if it's a legit tracklisting

[Leila]

:shrug:

No idea, it showed up in our news queue.

I have seen a lot of the titles brought up in various interviews, FOB blog posts or MTV articles. I assume it's a compilation someone made of all of those. I know on the fall out boy livejournal, someone went through all the articles and interviews they could find and posted all the as-of-yet confirmed tracks. This list has one or two additions. Seeing that it's only 10 songs, I am going to assume it's a list in progress.

I can confirm that this wikipedia link is at least somewhat reliable. Thoughtit might be interesting to post, so whatever.

[Drew Beringer]

Best title = They Make Plans, We Make History

That's why it's prefaced with "rumor/gossip" wording; so people take it with a grain of salt. So thanks for the submission.

[Joe DeAndrea]

I think half of the titles are confirmed.

[Dan CiTi]

I just heard this...I expected it to be MUCH heavier...whatever still better than FUCT.

[Drew Beringer]

So I was pissed that Lost doesn't come back on till February 7th, but then I was happy cause I realized I'll have new FOB a day before, making that week a great week.

[IamTheINDUSTRY]

tate's mad at wikipedia because they outted keith horn as owner and him as just lowly webmaster....(for noobs only)

[IamTheINDUSTRY]

So I was pissed that Lost doesn't come back on till February 7th, but then I was happy cause I realized I'll have new FOB a day before, making that week a great week.



drew, i now officially love you. not only do you love lost.....you love in keeping secrets...and i am giving fob one last chance...so i am right there with you! i want sawyer to fuck kate on a regular basis!

[waggy]

i really hope they're not dumb enough to name their album "thriller". think panic!'s next album will be titled "sgt pepper's lonely hearts club band"?

[IamTheINDUSTRY]

That's why it's prefaced with "rumor/gossip" wording; so people take it with a grain of salt. So thanks for the submission.


touche...

[BtoTheRad]

Humm.. I dont want to see The Academy Is.., Gym Class Heros, and Gabe as support for Fall Out Boy. I've already seen that tour...

2005 Fueled by Ramen tour: Fall Out Boy/Midtown/The Academy Is.../Gym Class Heros.

One of the raddest shows Ive ever been to.

heh idaho falls

[IamTheINDUSTRY]

i really hope they're not dumb enough to name their album "thriller". think panic!'s next album will be titled "sgt pepper's lonely hearts club band"?


thats not dumb. that would actually get me interested/them buzz/ be kind of "scene"...or out of "scene" anyway....it's obnoxious....and it tells the story that this will be really catchy...i would gain respect if they named it that....

[tiff_taff]

I like the song titles, but I don't think the albums going to be called Thriller even though I agree with what Jason said about how it would get a lot of press. And I hope they tour with Jack's Mannequin. I'm so down for that.

[KidLightning]

knowing fall out boy and how much respect they would have for an album like thriller i think the only way they'd name it that is if it was an acronym. so maybe it's going to be T.H.R.I.L.L.E.R. now let's all speculate as to what that would stand for . . .

[RyanBOTM]

"Gay is Not A Synonym For Shitty" is a good one.

Pete confirmed that that is a song title in a recent interview.

[overoverme]

So Jack's Mannequin is going to open for Panic in their arena tour...and then Fall Out Boy for their next arena tour?

I doubt that.
That tour sounds more like a fan's wet dream than anything else.
Also, it is too similar to the FBR and friends tour for when Fuct came out.

Gay is not a synonym for shitty better make it to the final album...
Some of the names are interesting, and others I have seen before...

[JunkBondTrader]

thats not dumb. that would actually get me interested/them buzz/ be kind of "scene"...or out of "scene" anyway....it's obnoxious....and it tells the story that this will be really catchy...i would gain respect if they named it that....
wow. you are sold incredibly easily. so if panic! named their album sgt. peppers you would have respect for them? im sorry, but i would fucking pissed. naming your album thirller isnt AS bad just because its a single word nad not as pigeonholed as saying Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band. i dont think naming your album thriller is a good idea, but if they want to then whatever.

[keeplioving]

I think most of those song titles are really lame. they aren't even creative. I really hope those aren't the real tracks.

[hollywoodending]

I think most of those song titles are really lame. they aren't even creative. I really hope those aren't the real tracks.

yeah, most of them seem too awkward, like petey was trying too hard. I do like the one about lawyers though. clever little fobbies

[JunkBondTrader]

I'm A Baller, and A Shot Caller

hahaha thats a sweet title

[garlicgirl1210]

I'd go to that tour...I wasn't able to go to Fueled By Ramen and Friends...

And club tour prior to the new album? Soooo down.

wow, i wanted to say everything you did.....great minds think alike.

yeah, i wanted to see the fbr and friends tour but couldn't so this would be awesome....but it still sounds too good to be true. and a club tour would be pretty sa-weet.

[chokeychicken]

in my opinion, fall out boy should quit being a label whore and take out 2 or 3 smaller or unsigned bands on tour. they're fucking gigantic. they've taken those bands out before - jack's mannequin is opening up for one of the hottest bands in music right now every single night to sold out mid-sized arenas. why not let a smaller, hard working band open up for fall out boy, so they can catch a break just like this band did not too many years ago?

and a club tour would be insane. so would getting tickets.

[They]

YEAH GRRRREAT. bring Academy, fucking Cobra Starship, and Gym Class Heroes out again for anyone who hasn't been spoon fed that shit enough.

Hey, fall out boy, why dont you finally remember your good friends PUNCHLINE and bring THEM on a fucking tour after years of neglecting a band at the top tier of Fueled By Ramen (and not for long since they've completed their contract although might re-sign)...and not to mention have said in interview that they are one of your favorite bands to tour with...with just a few shout outs 37 Everywhere could have rocketed them into the spotlight like they fucking should be. Do whats right.

[Leila]

Hm, now the title has been changed to Take It As You Will. Strange.

[thewk]

Why not? It'd be an insane maneuver that would guarantee press and discussion.
new end original (jonah mantragna) had an album named thriller.
no one gave a shit.

[Leila]

LoL, whoever keeps editing those track titles is a total douche.

[azrielen]

To the dillweed that keeps editing not-so-funny Panic! At The Disco jokes into the song titles. Stop it, please. (Even if that last one made me LOL.)

[lipslkemorphine]

wtf? i looked at the link, then looked again like 2 minutes later and things were changed. i think i lost my mind or something...

but now i see it isnt just happening to me. okay

[lipslkemorphine]

To the dillweed that keeps editing not-so-funny Panic! At The Disco jokes into the song titles. Stop it, please. (Even if that last one made me LOL.)



yea, it was pretty amusing. honestly. aha

[IceTech]

man, this is so gay

[SePaMc]

to the person that said one title was confirmed:

i'm pretty sure I liked you a lot better before you became a fucking myspace whore was confirmed....

and it didn't make the cut.

I would be shocked if "I'm like a lawyer.." makes the album. It was in an interview before, but I just can't see the label letting it fly on an album that will appeal heavily to 15-17 year old girls (as sad as that makes me).

[falloutboy.]

I think most of those song titles are really lame. they aren't even creative. I really hope those aren't the real tracks.
arent creative? what song titles are you into, the one word titles? thats LAME.
And watch out for FOB in december, small club touring to promote the record before going on a big spring tour after the record comes out...

[azrielen]

I would be shocked if "I'm like a lawyer.." makes the album. It was in an interview before, but I just can't see the label letting it fly on an album that will appeal heavily to 15-17 year old girls (as sad as that makes me).

I think it will make the album.

Fall Out Boy has always had rather blatant innuendo in their lyrics, to the point that when the Kidz Bop people made noise about maybe covering Dance, Dance people had a mild stroke. I don't think the band would let it's younger demographic dictate its titles or content because, though they certainly have developed one, a younger fanbase was never what Fall Out Boy's music was intended for.

If that made any sense... O.o It's late.

[falloutboy.]

YEAH GRRRREAT. bring Academy, fucking Cobra Starship, and Gym Class Heroes out again for anyone who hasn't been spoon fed that shit enough.

Hey, fall out boy, why dont you finally remember your good friends PUNCHLINEand bring THEM on a fucking tour after years of neglecting a band at the top tier of Fueled By Ramen (and not for long since they've completed their contract although might resign)...and not to mention friends that back in the day when you guys and pline slept on my neighbors floor you were inseperable...with just a few shout outs 37 Everywhere could have rocketed them into the spotlight like they fucking should be. Do whats right.
finally someone gives PUNCHLINE support! that band deserves so MUCH MORE than they have been given. I have seen them on tour 6 times, and not once did the 230 people venue sell out. disgusting. Each and every time Steve and the guys have came out and hung out with the fans and just showed incredible love for his job, its sucks NO ONE appreciates hard work/good music when they hear it..

[Jason Tate]

Can't wait to hear some new music. Wonder who will snag that exclusive?

[Epilogueboy]

"Were Still Not As Cool As Tate"....is that an aptly titled song in respect of our warlord....i mean weblord....i mean webmaster. hehe <3 Jason Tate

[Leila]

Can't wait to hear some new music. Wonder who will snag that exclusive?

You are such a fucking tease. You've been on about this for weeks - out with it already! Hurry!

[Chris Fallon]

I like the new look on posts, Jason! Spiffy!

And as for reliability, I would think Wikipedia falls very low on that list.

[sdbrown]

Jason wants people to read his journals, hm? :)

I think the "I'm like a Lawyer..." title has a really good chance of making it. Last time apparently a bunch of the lyrics and titles showed up in his journal, and I'm a Lawyer was definitely mentioned once or twice...

Carpal Tunnel of Love? I'm thinking sidekick. and I so want to make a noods(?) pic joke here. But I shall resist.

[DreamOfUnity]

Seems legit.

Maybe under a different name, but I remember reading somewhere that Pete really wants it on the next album.

[broken_glass]

I think half of the titles are confirmed.

Yeah,

Hum Hallelujah
I Got All This Ringing in My Ears But None on My Fingers
The Carpal Tunnel of Love
Gay Is Not A Synonym For Shitty
You Can't Spell Star Without A&RAre ones I have heard confirmed by the band in various interviews.

[VinceHotline]

A band from atlanta called treephort tried to do publicity stunt and get sued by metallica and named their cd "kill em all" it didn't work. So I highly doubt a band of FOB stature will do that with MJ.

They don't need to. And some of those song titles are beyond rediculous. The new FOB will be awesome and they won't need stunts like that to help sell units cause their an awesome band

All u haters can suck it.

[Remz]

man, this is so gay
Gay is not a synomyn for shitty. ;)

Someone is going to kill me for that. I can just feel it.

[Chevy114]

Wait a site where you let the readers decide what goes on a band's page could be wrong? :rolleyes:

[mydreamrewrite]

I don't see a title. The news posts don't look different. I am not a fall out boy fan.

[SingleDoubt]

omg that tour would be SO amazing.

haha, i was waiting for someone like you to post a reply. you suck.

[SingleDoubt]

Can't wait to hear some new music. Wonder who will snag that exclusive?

IRC, ftw!

[myaimistruex3]

i don't know if any of this is really true, but that would be awesome if they toured with Jack's Mannequin.

[Ruggiero2oo8]

A lot of those song titles are fuckin sweet.

I agree.

[eversoinviting]

that sounds like such a sweet tour

[mr chainsaw]

YEAH GRRRREAT. bring Academy, fucking Cobra Starship, and Gym Class Heroes out again for anyone who hasn't been spoon fed that shit enough.

Hey, fall out boy, why dont you finally remember your good friends PUNCHLINEand bring THEM on a fucking tour after years of neglecting a band at the top tier of Fueled By Ramen (and not for long since they've completed their contract although might resign)...and not to mention friends that back in the day when you guys and pline slept on my neighbors floor you were inseperable...with just a few shout outs 37 Everywhere could have rocketed them into the spotlight like they fucking should be. Do whats right.

HELL FUCKIN YEAH! I remember playing a show with fall out boy and punchline in columbus probably 4-5 years ago in this place in columbus, oh called the midgard...it probably smaller than wendys restaraunt these days...now fob are incredibly successful and punchline are being ignored

[NoseOverTail]

See: New End Original.

And to ever who said for FOB to stop neglecting Punchline, thank you!

[dafries1]

I just heard this...I expected it to be MUCH heavier...whatever still better than FUCT.


it leaked already?

[Bury Your Head]

thats not alot of songs.....

[LizisforLovers]

One of my friends went and saw JM out in California a while ago and talked to Andrew. He said that the tour was more than likely happening. If it's a club tour or an arena tour, I'm not sure.

I've heard the tour rumor for a while. But I don't know that I ever heard Cobra in there. Though, it would def. make that show amazing. I went to the FBR and friends tour, and I'd totally go again. That had to be one of my favorite shows ever.

I'm ridiculously excited for this album. I hope it's in the same category as TTTYG. I love FUCT, but TTTYG is so much better than that.

These song titles are pretty sweet, too.

i totally agree sean....i also think a lot of the rumored album titles sound kinda boring under fall out boy standards and dont think they would use some of them

[JunkBondTrader]

it leaked already?
fucking noobs

[Punk20]

www.fmqb.com does have "It's Not a Scene, It's an Arms Race" listed as the single, to be released in December.

[summerstars19]

Sadly, I think you're overestimating the average age of their fans. But I do agree with you...I don't think this song will make it either.

[CurtyB]

I've heard about that tour...with that lineup...but I heard it was going to be a club tour...and you know what..I can say I am quite excited..now if only FOB would only play songs off of Take This To Your Grave..

[blimpcityhero11]

Mainstream or not...I'm hyped

[Decemberist]

pete always tries to make the titles witty, but he failed so terribly here.

[Bury Your Head]

pete always tries to make the titles witty, but he failed so terribly here.

You got any ones that are better? I think there are some good ones

[Bury Your Head]

I hate when bands start off the cd with their single.


I hope that's not the case here

[NoseOverTail]

That same site lists The Ataris new single "Not Capable Of Love" coming out next week.

[falloutdrea19]

I'm Like A Lawyer With The Way I'm Always Getting You Off

are you kidding me? is that seriously going to be a name of a song?

[tiredofsunsets]

i'm pretty sure the record isn't gonna be called 'thriller'
i've read in a number of sources that fob won't tell anyone the name of the record yet.

[fearthesloths]

HELL FUCKIN YEAH! I remember playing a show with fall out boy and punchline in columbus probably 4-5 years ago in this place in columbus, oh called the midgard...it probably smaller than wendys restaraunt these days...now fob are incredibly successful and punchline are being ignored

did you guys ever think that maybe not as many people like Punchline... i mean they are pretty good, but theres a reason FOB are as big as they are... and they earned it too.

[C.R.U.X]

Can't wait to hear some new music. Wonder who will snag that exclusive?

Have you had the chance to listen to it yet by any chance?

[Ailite]

...9 songs?

[.KillMoneen.]

i agree 9 songs seems a lil cheap to me..

[summeroflike]

i agree 9 songs seems a lil cheap to me..

that's an incomplete list. the album should have 12-14 songs on it.

[SophmoreSyd]

That page has been up for about a month now and it keeps being wrong. Before they said it was just called F.O.B. and that they were getting a keyboarder.

That just about sums up the reliability of wikipedia.

[SophmoreSyd]

a) the cd isn't called thriller.

b) i've read most (but not all) of those song titles in interviews and stuff.

c) i'd be sad if "i'm like a lawyer" doesn't make it on there. I've actually seen about a line of the lyrics, and they were good.

d) Heard of the tour, too. and pete mentioned a club tour on fobrock.com

[Lehcar]

a lot of those song titles were confirmed by Pete, so I'd say this source is semi-reliable.

[SophmoreSyd]

Maybe under a different name, but I remember reading somewhere that Pete really wants it on the next album.

I have the live version of that song... can't understand most of the words though. Only got a bit something like "aren't you ashamed of the secrets you keep?"

[SophmoreSyd]

Gay is not a synomyn for shitty. ;)

Someone is going to kill me for that. I can just feel it.

Actually, it made me laugh. And I don't laugh that easily.

[MattRM]

I swear to God, some people posting here are so stupid.

THIS ISN'T THE OFFICIAL TRACKLIST.

These aren't the only songs that will be on the album, and I'd be surprised if all of these supposed titles really did make it onto the album.

And "I'm Like A Lawyer With The Way I'm Always Getting You Off"... I wouldn't be surprised at all if that song title made it to the album. Ohnoez, a slightly inappropriate title for 12 year olds... they'll get over it.

[You Won't Know]

pete mentioned a club tour on fobrock.com

I already respect Fall Out Boy way more than pretty much any other pop-punk band out there because of their underground roots and DIY way of doing things, but to do a club tour when you're the biggest band in the scene and potentially the biggest band in the world is fucking awesome. That's called credibility, folks. (And for those who disagree, let's be real. This isn't a hardcore band, let's give them credit where credit is due.)

People say that these titles are trying to hard, but every single one of them really makes me want to listen desperately... they aren't just witty, they're fucking genius. I'm looking forward to this CD, and if FOB do get a little darker or heavier I would be very excited. I think that by selling so many records, they hopefully have earned the right to make a darker CD from their record label. As sad as it is, I truly believe that being on a major label meant FOB cutting off the better songs from their last record (i.e. Hand of God, Music or the Misery) in favor of more poppy ones. We'll see I guess...

The only way I would love FOB more was if they brought Say Anything along with them... that would be absolutely insane. Just saying, Pete has been complimenting Max in the press quite a bit lately...

[ramstar]

we've heard most of those titles before. live versions of "We Don't Take Hits, We Write Them"
and "I Liked You A Whole Lot Better Before You Became A Fucking MySpace Whore" have been floating around since pre-FUCT. P3TARD has said "Gay Is Not A Synonym For Shitty" countless times at shows. "You Can't Spell Star Without A&R" has been a title since MTV caught onto FOB and was harassing them about their next cd. and I swear if Pete titled a song, "It's Hard To Look This Cheesy But I Keep My Arms So Breezy" I will have lost all respect for him and for the rest of the band not arguing with that title.

[Zummy]

We could argue for days about the song titles and what the album is going to be called but I say we all sit tight wait for the official tracklisting to be released. These AP arguments can be so stupid sometimes. I think I am the only person who read every post and laugh to myself, and before people jump down my throat I understand I DON'T have to come on AP. I just think people like to find pointless things to argue about.

[imapunkstarlet]

Ah!!!!! I'm Not Reading It!
It's hurting my eyes
I think it's better to be surprised by the titles when I buy it on Feb. 6th
(Can't wait)
