Bands don’t succeed. Just statistically. So after the surprise indie success of our album Take This To Your Grave, I was sure there was no way but down from there. I was certain we couldn’t possibly match the success we’d had with that album. So I barely bothered considering it as a possibility, I just went in to write and record an album I enjoyed. I told my parents “I swear, just one more semester off and then I’ll go to college.” When “Sugar, We’re Goin Down,” premiered on MTV’s TRL I could tell that I probably wasn’t going to make it to college after all.
Happy 20th anniversary to From Under The Cork Tree, the album that changed everything. You turned it into something so much bigger than us, and for that we’re forever grateful.
We’re working on some cool things to keep the celebration going later this year, but more on that later. Here’s to the next chapter 🌳🖤.
Patrick, Pete, Andy, Joe
Me: We do NOT need any more Fall Out Boy t-shirts bc we already have more than one person can reasonably wear.
The demon who lives in my brain that likes to give Patrick Stump money: Yeah, but... we don't have one in this colour ✨
23 years ago today is when Fall Out Boy got their name. We all know the story from The Oral History of TTTYG that FOB’s second show where they famously got their name was at a “Southern Illinois university” while opening for The Killing Tree. Since then, it was unknown...
Blitz, the dog from the cover of @falloutboy’s So Much (for) Stardust has impacted so many of us. Now, it’s our turn to impact him. Please consider donating to his parents to help with medical bills. https://t.co/amYSpiHv9J
If you know you know! The festival merch this weekend “renamed” a bunch of bands which was good for a ton of laughs. And ya know what? We liked ours so much we’re considering just changing our band name. For a limited test run, this shirt is available at https://t.co/T3kUzuTDRm
gen z is trying to fight on tiktok that cobra starship is a gen z band and not a millennial band and listen yall have brought us a lot of really great things but you can’t have this one unless you owned a purple american apparel zip up hoodie in 2009 i don’t make the rules
imagine that a few years after your band had to take a break because the tension got so high, you decide to make some new songs—not necessarily expecting anyone to still care about you—and over a decade later the crowds still sound like this
