I haven't checked any because I don't have the shirt. However I would have probably left it blank. I still really like FOB even if I do long the for TTTYG days.

I'd probably check From Under the Cork Tree.
TTTYG > FUCT > FAD >>>>>>>> IOH
And I've never listened to their first album.

Let's be real. Folie a Deux is their best effort. Dudes make great pop music and you can hear their pop-punk roots in most of their choruses. If you don't like this album, you are either a) stubborn, b) haven't listened to it from start to finish (with an open motherfucking mind) or c) are completely jealous that your beat-ass band will never get you a sexy pop star wife, more than $50 bucks for playing a show, or the ability to be fat and bald and still rule.
I actually fall under the c) category and still love this goddamn band. And I have the greatest musical taste in the world. Listen up.

...since 5 seconds ago would be funny, or just now......... I wouldnt buy it, but someone else probably would, i like fob, i dont love them or anything, but if i listened to the radio i'd take them over hinder or somthing, or even hawthorne heights, which while i'd usually side with punk/indie/emo/screamo rooted stuff over nu-metal or post-grunge, that isnt to say that alot of those bands havent crossed over into that bad of territory, tho i'm sure many ppl feel thats where fob is, but honestly i couldnt had cared less about a band like them back in 03-04, i had been listening to punk for so long by that point somthing like that didnt seem special.

If I had the shirt, I'd leave it blank; I've always liked FOB

I really just don't know what I feel about this band anymore. I just know I still listen to them and enjoy myself usually.

What shirt are you talking about?
they sent a shirt with some of the pre-orders for folie a deux that was white and had "Fall Out Boy hasn't been good since..." and then they listed all the albums and it had a check box and you could mark it with whatever and they gave a sharpie with it.
if i would have got a shirt i would have left it blank. i just recently got into them, mainly because i actually listened to the music and not what people said about them, and i ended up loving them. yes TTTYG is my favorite, but FAD is really really good as well.
I'd leave it blank. Anyone who checked anything else is either jealous or in denial.

I just don't see what's the big deal about Fall Out Boy. They're OK, not awful, but definitely not a buzz worthy band. Everything about them is just consistently mediocre.

TTTYG is amazing, that being said, i really do love the new album. the other two are good for me, but not on the same level. I wasnt expecting anything from Folie, and they really delivered IMO.

i will be honest sir, i can totally understand not liking them, but saying they are consistently mediocre is unfair. FOB at least experiments with some R&B sort of vibes, and Patrick Stump is one of the best vocalists on the scene right now.

As far as the instrumentation goes, yeah, definitely, they're experimenting, and that's commendable. It's awesome to see band of their fame and stature trying to stay on top of their game - definitely not selling out. But idk, to call Stump when of the best vocalists in the scene right now is a pretty big stretch. He's certainly one of the most recognizable and original, but talented is not a word I would attach to the man. No offense to Stumpy, but he sings like he has ten years' worth of snot crammed up his nose. I guess some people like that nasally sound - and that's cool with me - but I just don't see the mass market appeal.

Edit: You know, I think I'll check Les Savy Fav out. A Wiki search has filled me with interest.

Yeah, they're really good. They don't really stick to the same genre, even from song to song, but they are very good.

what you are saying is fair. i guess by scene i meant radio bands, because i think that pat has the potential of having a good solo career when fall out boy is all said and done.

Although I enjoy all their stuff to some extent, TTTYG would probably get my vote since it's my favorite.

I personally like Folie à Deux the best, but I'd prefer my own playlist with an assortment of songs from all their albums.
Also, their assorted songs/EPs/B-sides are really good.
WhoSaidThat?
01/12/09, 05:33 AM
I went with first demo, because FOB is more than good...

I didn't like the new record because I don't like the direction they went in. I love FUCT because it was a perfect pop/punk record. The kinda political and kinda commenting on society stuff that he does in the lyrics I wasnt a fan of. the music was certainly a stretch from what they have done. And I just wasnt that big of a fan of all the over production. It is a pure pop record. not a fan
and that is why I chose FUCT

it is too big of a decision for me to put on a t-shirt.
it changes literally every day, because i listen to fall out boy at least once i day.
it's sort of an addiction.
i think overall IOH is my favorite, but FAD is a close second.

maybe if you're retarded.Basically, if you wanted to imply that Fall Out Boy has never been good, you would have to check an "ever" box. If you check "Since The First Demo", that leaves the implication that Fall Out Boy hasn't been good SINCE the first demo, but was good up until that point. Therefore, you are a dumbfuck.

TTTYG, but I still listen to any of their new albums that come out.
They were good from TTTYG to FUCT

saying that fall out boy hasn't been good since their first demo is meant to imply that they've never been good, hence why there's no choice that says "ever". I'll excuse you from calling me a dumbfuck since you're clearly not too bright.

I'll excuse you from calling me a dumbfuck since you're clearly not too bright.Are you kidding me? How do you not know the meaning of simple words like "since". If I said "I haven't eaten since 2 o'clock", it means I have not eaten since 2 o'clock, but at 2 o'clock, I ate. So apply that same logic to this situation: Fall Out Boy has not been good since the first demo. That clearly states that Fall Out Boy was good up until the point of the first demo, and then proceeded on being "not good".
Okay, maybe you aren't a dumbfuck, but you certainly don't have a grasp on simple logic.
