did anyone hear the new one?/how bad is the new one?

Save Rock and Roll had 1 good song (Alone Together), a few tolerable ones, but the rest was shit. did not check AB/AP out in full but Uma Thurman is one of the worst songs I have ever heard and Centuries is on its own meh but thanks to how many times it has been played I hate it.

I think I'm going to check the new one despite all of this cause why not

Yep, it's one of the messiest, most unpleasant things I've heard in a long time. And yeah, I'm obsessed with TWBF, such a magnificent record.

So this album is bad.



I wanted to point out that I was shocked to hear the Son Lux "Lost it to Trying" sample being used as the backbone of "Fourth of July". It makes me question how much of FOB's music is even original, and much LESS respect I have for them for recycling other artists content as their own.



I'm curious to know whether people thinking that "Fourth of July" is an album highlight are aware that they didn't make this music.

Man, I've grown like this one a quite lot. It's crazy how it's not too different from Mania but the songwriting is far better. It just works for me.

Review Summary: Believers never die.

29 out of 47 thought this review was well written

It’s a story you’ve heard a million times before, with a slightly different ending. A hugely popular mainstream band sees their seemingly unstoppable career momentum grind to a screeching halt, due to forces largely beyond their control. Whether it’s due to changing musical tastes, a genre loosing its mainstream appeal, creative missteps or pure bad luck - something doesn’t go according to plan, and the band falls out of favor because of it, often in spectacularly dramatic fashion. In this case, the victims in question are Chicago pop punk stalwarts Fall Out Boy, and the story seems particularly cliched and predictable. As the pop punk genre fell out of fashion in the waning years of the 2000’s, the band fought to combat irrelevancy by releasing the experimental, multi-faceted Folie a Deux, an album that flopped spectacularly on a commercial level, widely dismissed by casual and hardcore fans alike. This led to internal tensions within the group that eventually manifested themselves in an indefinite hiatus.
