Carpal Tunnel of Love

[Jason Tate]

Who'd you expect to premiere the first new Fall Out Boy (http://www.absolutepunk.net/falloutboy) tune to the world? What? Where? Here (http://www.absolutepunk.net/falloutboy). How's that for an ABSOLUTExclusive.

[Jason Tate]

For those curious: No, this is not the first single from the album. And Pete's latest journal entry is hilarious.

[YourMusicSucks]

Wow, that's huge. Great job.

This song is surprisingly fucking good. Wow.

[redsand62]

yeah...what that guy said ^

[m_rue]

i like the screaming in it.

[Scott Irvine]

Oh snap.

[tombo85]

who is the screaming from

[Steve Henderson]

So fucking huge. If MTV wants to interview me, go ahead. :)

[tharealck]

well, this thread is guaranteed to be like 300 long...

jason, hope you invested in a lot of bandwidth this month :)

[Mike Kraft]

Omg!!!!!!!!! No Way!!!!!!!!!!!

[yutsmcgee]

Good stuff

[shane hennessey]

i like the song but the screaming dosent do it for me

[Steve Henderson]

well, this thread is guaranteed to be like 300 long...
Terrible underestimation. 900+.

[!kELLEE]

who is the screaming from
i'm gonna take a wild guess at this one....petey?

[(joeyman)]

this is why i love ap. this song is a lot different than what i thought fob was going to go for. i like it so far. and the screaming reminds me of TTTYG.

[XErikxthexRedX]

dammit pete, stop screwing up FOB songs with randomly screaming!

[MPS_]

Shit, this is pretty cool. Mad props Jason. I've never been the biggest FOB fan but I'm really liking the new song.

[Jason Tate]

My thoughts on the screaming: they do it on every album on one or two songs, I'm expecting that to be the same as this ... probably won't be on other tracks. I think it adds a nice touch to the bridge, and I like it.

[quixotic]

doesn't sound bad... but it's probably going to get kind of old if it gets the play the last album did.

[TheEndofGravity]

not bad not bad

[Steve Henderson]

Note to people: even if you think you do not like the song, I dare you to try not singing/humming the hook after it stops playing. So fucking catchy.

[yufli]

i hear very poppy stuff (the reason i never was a fan of them in the first place) and screaming.
i like the screaming.

[dashboard1190]

sweet

im excited. they're really catchy.

[shane hennessey]

true

[JohnDorian]

Worth staying up til 1:20am for

[average_jane]

I can't wait to hear the rest of this album. It's going to be fucking huge.

[AFSjulian]

I have to listen to it a few times more. It's definitely catchy, but in a way that I'm not used to from FOB. I definitely don't hate it though.

[devinisdie]

mmmm I love that voice but it doesn't need the effects added to it so much.

[rdriter]

it sounds great

[Juber]

its awesome! I love AP.net!

[Joe DeAndrea]

Awesome song.

[crit]

Not the best FOB track, but solid. I can't wait for the album.

[!kELLEE]

the song is catchy and actually somewhat refreshing compared to the preconceived expecations i had. however, i don't think pete is a very good screamer and like others have said, it seems a bit out of place. a band that rhymes with saw thorn dykes comes to mind.

[Steve Henderson]

Haha you killed the hidden link.

[ddojo]

sounds pretty awesome! and i think it will really grow on me.

My thanks goes out to the members of Fall Out Boy for letting AP.net be the first to post the song, that's such a nice thing to do!

[average_jane]

Haha you killed the hidden link.

haha, yeah glad I got there fast.

[m_rue]

this is why i love ap. this song is a lot different than what i thought fob was going to go for. i like it so far. and the screaming reminds me of TTTYG.

memories...:-)

[JohnDorian]

Haha you killed the hidden link.
Was it a mistake?

[AbeLurkin]

the hidden link is no more...back to the BN thread.

[Drew Beringer]

This song fuckin rocks, the new album should be better than FUCT. I'm excited.

[forgetdecember]

i like the song but the screaming dosent do it for me
That's basically the way I feel about it, too.

[*crying stars*]

^ditto.

[Steve Henderson]

Was it a mistake?
Haha, not sure - it might have been an mp3 of the song.

[yeaimkindahxc]

great great song.
i wish i knew what exactly the words mean, pete is just a little too deep for me.
but whatever, i love the sound. classic yet new FOB.
i'm falling even more in love.

[Jason Tate]

Haha you killed the hidden link.
It's just hidding more now. :shhh:

[GoWaitInTheCar]

Boring and nothing new.

[Luckie St]

i really like it. tttyg is my all time favorite pop punk album. fuct just didn't do it for me for some reason (i really wanted it to) but this has me super excited for fall out boy again. i just can't hate these guys no matter what. how many new members did you guys get from this?

[Steve Henderson]

It's just hidding more now. :shhh:
Oh, you sneaky fucker :)

[Riki]

Im with the others the screaming is really out of place, Im sure he is a lovely guy, but id prefer FOB without Pete =/

On the other hand Pats voice is tonally beautiful, his layered vocals are what really makes a FOB song catchy IMO :P

[muddysocks7]

nice ap.net

[...generic...]

Why does this song have the same bassline as "Our lawyer made us change the name of this song"? Please tell me i'm wrong about this!

[C.R.U.X]

what about a hidden link now?

[muddysocks7]

i'm never good at finding hidden stuff...

[zclark]

oh damn!

[Mike Kraft]

Oh, you sneaky fucker :)

haha, he's getting a kick outta this.

[C.R.U.X]

i'm never good at finding hidden stuff...


Me too, me too.

Whereas this song is pretty simple, i still cant imagine just ANYBODY else writing it. The way pat sings the chorus is pretty exciting i feel.

[bustamebus]

found the hidden link.
but didnt know that this song hasnt been posted here yet. ive had this song for like 3 days or so.

[Jason Tate]

Me too, me too.

I really like his vocals as well ... the pause .. then hit the highnote part is probably my favorite.

[tharealck]

Terrible underestimation. 900+.

clearly...in retrospect, I'd imagine this to be in the quadruple digits range

[Jason Tate]

found the hidden link.

That's because I put it up on Friday and didn't tell anyone except the general forum and the FOB message board. ;-)

[Mike Kraft]

"..... you call me a badtipper of the cradle. but im just tired yawns for fawns on hunters lawns. were the hasbeens of husbands, sharpening the knives of young wives."

[nijofosho]

reminds me a lot of Take This To Your Grave(which is one of my favorite albums.) i love it.

[Tristan Needler]

this is pretty huge jason for sure, but it's slowing the site down so much already!!

[Jason Tate]

this is pretty huge jason for sure, but it's slowing the site down so much already!!
Site's still running okay for me ... the BN thread was what was slowing it down the most. Our server loads are still all under 1 ... I'm keeping an eye on everything.

[Chris Fallon]

Old news.















hahaha ... I like it.

[CountMeOut923]

thank you for putting this up-this site never ceases amaze me!!!!! i love the song, patricks voice sounds amazing. the screaming definitely sounds good. thank you ap.net for making me happy today

[mgrogan048]

that brought a smile to my face... thanks ap, and fob

[Prestonxsmith]

Very good song
It is so catchy
but what FOB song isnt?

[bustamebus]

That's because I put it up on Friday and didn't tell anyone except the general forum and the FOB message board. ;-)

oh you sly dog you. ;-)

[mikeyxxcore]

I dotn know how anyone thinks that screaming is good. it doesnt fit the song at all, its a horrible attempt.

I wish I could cut this out of the song and listen to it more, I would LOVE this song.

[Mike Kraft]

That's because I put it up on Friday and didn't tell anyone except the general forum and the FOB message board. ;-)

and what fun that was :memories:

[Nick DiLallo]

about what I expected, also this doesn't sound like a mastered version; the espescially vocals sound like they aren't completely finished in this recording

[irthesteve]

sweet

[SellOuts]

Same prechorus chords and melody as the first track from their last cd...

[LewistonSpecial]

I don't dislike it immensely or anything, I'm just not impressed. At all. However, It isn't a bad song so I'm sure the album might not suck when i can check it out in full.

[jtrocka182]

This song is amazing. Pete's screaming is great.

[jetsto]

great job ap. i liked the song but didnt like the bridge with the screaming. overall not bad though

[JohnnyG]

not bad at all, lookin foward to what the rest has to offer. congrats to AP.net!

[irthesteve]

Same prechorus chords and melody as the first track from their last cd...
our lawyers? far from it

[i12punk]

Why does this song have the same bassline as "Our lawyer made us change the name of this song"? Please tell me i'm wrong about this!

You're not wrong. There is a guitar part that is also identical to the part in Our Lawyer that goes "we will leave you high and dry, it's not worth the hearing you'll lose". Maybe they ran out of ideas. Or maybe it was an intentional musical reference to their last album, much like Our Lawyer was to Grand Theft Autumn.

[Ailite]

Wow..... I like this song. But not the screaming.

[SellOuts]

our lawyers? far from it

Listen to the chord changes and the melody in the prechorus from laywers and the new song

[bleed me bleu]

the guitar on the bridges are from an old fob song

to lazy to think of it

[Shoorty0690]

Ha. Theres no way they could make that their single. It was hard enough for whats his name to sing Sugar were goin' down. Try getting a falsetto to sound good that many times...

<3ryan

[TheLifeMelodic]

thank you mr. tate and ap.net staff.
you are the greatest.

[notoaststereo]

i dont like the screaming

i really like the lyrics he's screaming more.

[JonyeWest]

Great song. I downloaded it off of demonoid, And it surprised me. I had no clue it originated from AP. It's definitely an amazing sign that the new record will not disappoint. I bet they'll outdo themselves again. Patrick is a genius

[Steve Henderson]

I like you.
What about me?

[lftcoastenvy05]

dammit pete, stop screwing up FOB songs with randomly screaming!

its not like anyone is gonna stop listening to this band because pete is "screwing up" songs by screaming

[i12punk]

Great song. I downloaded it off of demonoid, And it surprised me. I had no clue it originated from AP. It's definitely an amazing sign that the new record will not disappoint. I bet they'll outdo themselves again. Patrick is a genius

It didn't originate here. It leaked a day or two before it was up here on friday. But the version that leaked was a 128kbps m4a and this one is higher quality.

[thewk]

good job ap

[math, you?]

I don't know if I like it that much.

[itkeepsuswarm]

The screaming is, was, and always will be horrible. Just because Pete's only talents are writing decent lyrics about girls and being an attention whore, that doesn't mean he should be allowed to ruin songs that could otherwise be solid. The vomitting-blood sound doesn't make FOB any more hardcore

[Roy_Stalin]

twat

It was a rip off our stream.

[captainhampton]

not good at all, generic until the screaming. at that point it becomes so bad it made me laugh.

[Dan CiTi]

Simply...I'm gonna love this new album.

I like you.

Right back at ya, buddy. :drew:

Wrong. It originated from here.

Days ago -- there's all kinds of threads in the general forum and over at the FOB message board.

[captainhampton]

:bann:
you want him banned for being 100 percent correct?

[Drew Beringer]

LOL at people thinking that some other site had this before us.

this is tit

[CalebAndrew]

I dig it.

[Jason Tate]

Wait. You assumed a Fall Out Boy song wasn't going to be "generic"?

Come on. You know what you're getting if you're listening to FOB -- if you don't like them, why are you listening?

Did your sisters pants get a little to tight?
or are you just a little pre-menstural?

[Mike Kraft]

i said that because i dont agree with him

[JohnDorian]

This has gone to the top of my 100 most played on iTunes already.

finally. LOL at all the people looking at this right now.
anyways, damn good song, besides petes screaming..
and i can't wait for the album to come out

[Nick DiLallo]

Wait. You assumed a Fall Out Boy song wasn't going to be "generic"?

well said; I don't this this song is going to surprise anyone, but its still pretty catchy

[Adrian Villagomez]

More screaming, FOB? Okay. Upon first listen, it didn't catch me much... but I'll probably still like the full album. Either way, props to AP.net for the exclusive, this is major. I've always supported these AbsoluteExclusives.

[trackrecord182]

i like it, can't wait for the rest of the cd now

[ihatecayte]

it's good. different from what i was expecting. i think it will have to grow on me. we'll see.
all the crazy kids on the fob forum were TWEAKING out. it was kind of gross the way some of them (over)reacted. buh. SWGD round 2?

[Mike Kraft]

This has gone to the top of my 100 most played on iTunes already.

hahaha, according to Last.fm the song is the most played track i've listened to.

[Prestonxsmith]

That would be chad of NFG and pete

i didn't say i didn't like them. their first album was solid. i think the screaming is just really bad. not needed at all. it's just that FOB are another band that doesn't deserve the attention they get.

[Jason Tate]

How do you determine what bands do "deserve" the attention they get? The word "deserve" seems to be derived from a personal preference or way of thinking.

[derricklc22]

Best song I've heard from them since their TTYG album.

And I liked FUCT, but this is just has that same old FOB feeling when I first heard TTYG

[Mike Kraft]

:overhead: Jason ftw

[captainhampton]

i think the bands that deserve attention are the one's that are talented. whether that be talent in songwriting, being good musicians, originality, etc. I want more bands that are talented to get big and receive attention.

[i12punk]

Wrong. It originated from here.

Days ago -- there's all kinds of threads in the general forum and over at the FOB message board.

My bad. I just assumed that someone with enough knowledge to rip streaming songs wouldn't encode something in m4a. Then again you don't need to bother ripping it at all if you know what you're doing.

[JohnDorian]

AMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!

plus
There are two people screaming
That would be chad of NFG and pete
Chad's in there? Need to listen closer

[GirlyGirlGirlGi]

How to ruin this song forever in your brain:

1. Close your eyes.
2. Get ready for the chorus.
3. Imagine the squat dude from the Barenaked Ladies singing it.

Ta-da!

Overall, this is kinda boresville. Anyone heard that Girl Talk track where he mixes Lil Kim over the opening riff from "Sugar"? That's quality

[Prestonxsmith]

Chad's in there? Need to listen closer
Its hard to tell
I have my iPod headphones plugged in
They trade off until it gets to the hasbeens of husbands
then they scream together

[alreadyheardit]

the first significant chord progression is exactly the same as the first track on FUCT.

[Jason Tate]

i think the bands that deserve attention are the one's that are talented. whether that be talent in songwriting, being good musicians, originality, etc. I want more bands that are talented to get big and receive attention.
Talented, to me, is also a subjective term. For example, I think to write songs this catchy takes extreme amounts of talent. And I'm envious of Patrick's vocals as well. Otherwise, everyone could do it.

But I also understand where others say it's "talentless" music. So, that brings me full-circle to my idea that the idea of "talent" is subjective.

fair enough.

[youareallfreaks]

hasnt really stuck after 4 listens. we will see though.

[Music4Torching]

i'd consider myself a pretty big FOB fan, and I'm really excited for this next album, but i'm sort of on the fence with this song...

Patrick's voice is incredible (as always on the recordings), I love the high note he hits with the falsetto in the chorus after the bridge. it sounds in credible. plus the layering and effects on his voice sound really good and crisp, even though maybe people are saying this still isn't mastered (?) i can't tell. it sounds pretty good to me. also the hooks and melodies are intense and mind-numbingly catchy, but...

i don't think the lyrics are all that great to tell you truth. Even though they are always completely wrapped in teen-angst and cliches, I always really like FOBs lyrics, but this just didn't live up to it. some lines seem forced, and a lot of it was just cheesy in my opinion. Plus it seems like there was no time put into getting the lyrics and the song to flow nicely together. Patrick is doing so much of his crazy wailing (which I normally like a lot) that it seems like he's over compensating for the lack of continuity with lyrics and melody.

and although i seem to be beating a dead horse, i'm also not a huge fan of that screaming...i understand the contrast of Stump's smooth vocals with the crass sound of Pete freaking out, but i just don't like it. it takes away from an extremely catchy song, and, much like the lyrics, sounds forced. maybe i'm just not a big pete fan? probably..

well. that's my rant. go easy on it, i do really like the song. i'm looking forward to this release.

[Imtheotherguy]

I'm guessing this is the song pete described as "it would be an r&b song if there wasnt a rock band in the background"

[whitelines]

man i love absolutexclusives

[werealldudes19]

i like this.

as much as I hate to say I, I think I agree with you. Parts of the lyrics are intriguing, but they're not as inventive as some of FOB's older songs.

[beckettlove]

this was pretty good.

[Brxtt]

First MCR, then Brand New, and now Fall Out Boy... all releasing some amazing new music. The Used's new album will be good as well. Music is so much better than it was 5 years ago.

[Matt_Dizzle]

oh man IM LOVIN IT.

[Gunwalls]

Stump sounds way better

but anyway, I don't like it. the only good thing about it is Patrick's vocals.

[TBSowns524]

wow this is huge jt

[wtfemokid]

oh man this is good, and i'm not always an fob fan.

[XmorganX88]

Patricks voice is good in this but the screaming is pretty stupid.

[eversoinviting]

very good

[CorporateFish]

Not bad at all...

Less dance, more punk por favor.

It was up on AP days ago - we were just slowly telling different factions about it before making the main page post.

[GAD_guy]

uhh...yeah this is a new level of bad for this band.

[doomcrs04]

i like the new song. finally fob hating is gone

[Ladron]

It sounds like a demo to me.

[Domb]

Hey Patrick became an even better singer. Man... Pete just had to scream... IMO that part ruined the song, but the rest of the song sounds great.

[cahrishurr]

the screaming is unneeded

[Domb]

Part of the verse reminds me of Motion City Soundtrack. Mainly the way Patrick sings it.

[frommelyty]

oddly, i enjoyed that.

[Loch_Doun]

patrick's vocals just get better and better.

and I like the screaming.

only problem is that the instrumentals get overshadowed by patrick's voice

[tremulant14]

Hey Patrick became an even better singer. Man... Pete just had to scream... IMO that part ruined the song, but the rest of the song sounds great.

My thoughts exactly. I don't care too much for the screaming in any of the FOB songs. Patrick's voice became much better too, a much wider range of vocals.

[MGTrolling]

Jason, thanks for posting this, AP fuckin' rocks.

This song is catchy as hell, but it took a few listens and reading of the lyrics for it to really sink in. I like the style of the lyrics, less introspection and more symbolism.

The screams add a nice touch to the bridge.

[Spusel]

Ok, I'm really suprised so many people liked that song. because I feel they took everything bad about the last album and combined it into one song. I thought it was terrible. Sorry folks. All i can say is thank goodness it's not the single. Maybe if I give it another listen i will think differently.

no way. i see this as a perfect blend of TTTYG and FUCT. minus the bridge this song is amazing.way better than what i expected.

[Jonathan London]

This is awesome! The song really shows that they've come full circle!

Because it sounds like a song from The Stereo... does Jaimie Woolford get royalties?

I guess I'll reserve total judgement till I see what the rest of the album offers. I liked Cork Tree.

[rhinitus]

i mean, i suppose, but someone let the cat out of the bag yesterday or the day before...

anyways yea the song is awesome, but i could do without the screaming

[Stephie]

I'm liking it!

[rhinitus]

and i know pete is going to read all of these...dont take it personally bud, i still love your tunes

[Spusel]

listening to it again, i like it more. however, the falsettos are shakey at points, and i dislike the screaming on the bridge very much.

[seabatty06]

so awsome!! it's great to hear patrick's voice again! and peter can do some major screaming! <333:-)

[SecrectsLost]

I love this song i can't wait for the feb. 6

[ByelineCole]

g4y

[Jason Tate]

g4y
G4y is also not a synonym for shitty.

[ByelineCole]

anyone agree that this sounds like an unmastered version of a song?

(listen to it with headphones on, it makes a big difference)


the levels and tones of this song def do not match up to prior releases.... but then again this is a stream. the metal breakdown ending was pretty pontless and didnt add anything to the song except trying to broaden their already massive fan base.

[StanIV]

Here goes my first post:


Not the biggest fallout boy fan, but this song is pretty sweet. I'm now excited for this album.

[tacobell]

i wouldnt call mysef a fan of fall out boy, the last record was catchy and very hook heavy...but this new song...is SHIT.

[mr chainsaw]

sounds good...wish the full length was coming out sooner

[mr chainsaw]

i wouldnt call mysef a fan of fall out boy, the last record was catchy and very hook heavy...but this new song...is SHIT.

you're not punk and i'm telling everyone

the song had a lot of potential but the screaming ruins it for me. annoying.

[smurf6585]

you're not punk and i'm telling everyone

This made me laugh :)

[cahrishurr]

how are there still this many people lurking this thread

i dont even recognize but a few of them as regulars...its sad

[bpopowitz]

i dont like the way patricks voice sounds in this song minus the first 20 seconds. the song never evolved into anything exciting for me and the chanting/screaming part kinda missed for me too. it was kind of a creative idea but this song def. doesn't do it for me. i hope the album sounds better.

[lipslkemorphine]

I'm so happy to hear some new FOB. <3

[CROMagnon]

liking it

[tragedyco]

that screaming part is gross.

[_all_star_me_]

this is fairly interesting. way catchy.

[Scuba Chris]

I am digging it. Nice hook, excellent vocals. And as per the screaming, I can go either way with FOB, some songs it works, others not at all... in this song, I like it a lot.

Thanks Jason.

I'm guessing a heap-load.

[AimeeNW]

Definitly a toe tapper. The vocals were awesome. Wow. I'm so happy I can't think in complete sentences.

[Dan CiTi]

Pie much?

[AimeeNW]

How many people registered to hear this song?

I did. Guess i'm not cool.

[loganmmm]

Wow, I acually like it.

Still not nearly as good as TTTYG, but still a big step up from FUTCT

[Roy_Stalin]

still gash

[tiff_taff]

OMG I love it. I want their new album to come out now!

[Gitch]

you sir are gracious

[diehtc0ke]

That could have been a lot worse.

[ishotthepilot]

a good song. not the best i've head from FOB, at all. but definitely likeable.

[cue john denver]

I did. Guess i'm not cool.

NO NO, it's great that you registered. I was just wondering what kind of new traffic the site is going to get because of it. :) I encourage registering.

[Ryan Imhof]

decent.

[Remz]

It's refusing to load for me.

EDIT: Works now. I really like it, I was abit worried about how this new album would turn out, but hell yeah I like this song. Thank god it wasn't taking hip hop pop punk direction I was expecting.

[AimeeNW]

NO NO, it's great that you registered. I was just wondering what kind of new traffic the site is going to get because of it. :) I encourage registering.


I visit the site every day, i just never felt like registering before. This time i was super excited.

[cue john denver]

Well, while you're still looking at this... i'm in this band. Our Ep is going to start streaming here (http://www.absolutepunk.net/youmeandeveryoneweknow) this week. Listen. Thank you for registering. Tell your friends.

[cabanandhisemo]

can't wait for the album. but sadly we have to :( but i like this song alot :D

[Adrian Villagomez]

I visit the site every day, i just never felt like registering before. This time i was super excited.For shame! Judging by the new registered members, it looks like new FOB was just the cheese that Tate needed. Crafty.

[CurtyB]

wow...that was surprising...i dont quite know what to think of it yet

[AimeeNW]

For shame! Judging by the new registered members, it looks like new FOB was just the cheese that Tate needed. Crafty.


I'm sure the thought crossed his mind a time or two. Worked for me?

[Sailor Tattoos]

this song is fucking sick... they fucking did it AGAIN!!!!

[Vanilla Bear]

not bad...not bad at all

[mattcore]

in the immortal words of mr burns "i know what i hate... and i don't hate this"

i wanna be a little kid and play with trucks again

[DaveHallow]

DaveHallow <3's it!

[pnkdrmr182]

wow - go falloutboy. this song is excellent, and i dont mind the screaming; i dont like it any more or any less here than anywhere else. It does however remind me of tttyg, which is totally sweet.

[radtyler23]

wtf.
why is there screaming? lol it doesnt match at all.

[GoTHErelentless]

i can't even remember how it went after a first listen.

and, i'm pretty sure i was listening this to PV last night before it was even posted on AP...

edit: i am totally retarded. it was on here.
slap me, trent.

[stevadore]

i think the song is good up until pete starts screaming. and hes like...scream talking. stumpy has some nice vocals going and then we have to be reminded that its the pete show. hes ruining the band.

[Snails]

I like.

[azrielen]

I must say when I first listened to this song I was like...hmm.

But now I've had it on my iPod for a few days and a few dozen plays and it's stuck in my head. LOL. I love it quite a lot. Can't wait for the new record!

About the screaming, I'm getting use to it. Let it be said that I HATE HATE HATE bands that write music that is entirely that sort of throaty screaming. The closest I get to hardcore screamo is The used, and that's not very close at all. heh. Pete tho, can't pull it off fully, and it's a softcore sort of screaming that I think sounds pretty OK and doesn't make me want to throw up. Sometimes it makes me laugh too (just like everything else about Pete) and that's always good.

And anyway, I'll get behind any screamo bridge that involves ice cream headaches and angst. LOL, Pete, wtf were you writing about here, you weirdo. Ashlee?

Patrick, as expected, sounds fabulous. Can you believe he didn't know he could sing this way? He was a drummer LOL. That would have been such a waste of a lovely voice. I agree with Jason, when he hits the high note on the end of the second verse, I shiver a little.

Not the most complex of guitar or drum work. I am particularly eager to hear some of the great drum stuff Pete said was going on in the studio. I'm a bit of an Andy fangirl. Hehe.

FOB vs MCR for a Grammy nomination? (I gotta say I'm leaning toward MCR, but it would be awesome if they both got one.)

[Gunwalls]

Anyone know if this is one of the tracks babyface produced?

[falloutboy.]

its so freaking beautiful its amazing. the guitar work is so sick, omg this band is taking over the world one piece at a time. LONG LIVE FOB

[mxpxjf]

This song is gross, but props to AP.net for the Exclusive on it.

[callisto]

meh its alright. better than i thought it'd be. and i agree with the others it could do without the screaming.

[lbc182]

after one listen it's not too bad but single radio mainstream material, no.

[sdbrown]

I really tried to make it through the last 6 pages but I gave up, so sorry if I repeat something someone else has said.

Anyway, I think this is their LEAST catchiest song they've ever released. I've listened to it about 10-12 times and still can't remember the chorus. I do like the beginning with the digitized effects and Patrick's voice is damn good. The screaming is... screaming. It's not bad, but it's not what I was expecting. Especially after they did such a great job on the Nightmare cover.

I don't know what else to call this except vanilla. Not French vanilla gelato or like, Cold Stone sweet cream vanilla...just Baskin Robbins or generic brand at Dominicks vanilla. No reference to ice cream headaches intended.

[nickkilluv]

anything from TTTYG tears that song a new asshole.

[KevInept]

not really a fan of the chorus. but the rest of the song is cool.

[Coil]

Sounds like this song was made up from pieces of FUCT songs, kinda weak.

[Jacktheskipper]

I really liked the song until the screaming came on ... I know what to expect from Fall Out Boy, but please, this made me laugh so hard, this is the perfect example of pointless screaming ... but I still like the song as a whole ...

[Lehcar]

I'm proud to say I found this a few days ago when it was hidden in their profile.

Okay song. I'm sure the others will be better. Atleast you can tell they're trying new things.. Patrick's voice sounds great and I think Pete brought back a little TTTYG screaming bc the fans complained about FUCT being too pop.

[redlightpledge]

Suprisingly, I'm diggin' the new song.

[TheFirstMatt]

i love fall out boy, but this song is awful. there is a riff in the first minute that is exactly the same as a riff off FUTCT. The first single better be shithot or I won't buy the new album.

was expecting more from the first released song. not impressed at all. sorry guys.

[china white]

any way you spin it, this is a good song.

and Jason, Get Fuzzy is amazing.

[megazordx]

this is good. still only a demo, so obviously it's going to get changed.
i'm excited for the new album, and fuck all the haters yeaaaaaaah

[Scuba Chris]

this is good. still only a demo, so obviously it's going to get changed.
i'm excited for the new album, and fuck all the haters yeaaaaaaah
um? I don't think so.

[gonfreaks]

The song's okay. Not great (the screaming might be to blame for that), not horrible. I'm looking foward to their new album. I probably won't love it, but I'm sure it'll be a whole lot of fun to listen to.

[summerstars19]

I'm definitely getting a TTTYG feel...not gonna lie, I'm pretty excited about the new album.

[NeedlesAndPins]

it's pretty good. stump is great in it...the screaming seems out of place.

[|ant|]

The riff in the beginning part of the chorus is a little TOO familiar. This is really good though, seems a little more dark. I know hating fallout boy is the cool thing to do now, but I can't wait for this.

[WCC335]

The screaming doesn't do it for me. They should have gotten guest vox for that part. That would have been tight.
