underwaterzoo Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 Not super thrilled on this song, but still like it better than the last album. Got the lavender variant, anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stl_ben Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 Yeah I guess its shocking that folks have different tastes in music. Carry on with your hate, maybe if enough people hate it they will have to downsize their concerts. Fingers crossed for club shows again (because I know I won't get to see them in a bar ever again.) underwaterzoo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nardes Posted April 27, 2017 Author Share Posted April 27, 2017 This is exactly what happens EVERY. TIME. FOB releases the first song from their new albums... everyone shits on it, then by the end of the album cycle, they're wanting more. stl_ben 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nardes Posted April 27, 2017 Author Share Posted April 27, 2017 Looks like the variants are NOT limited, as swirl and lavender are back up with another 2000 a piece hammertime 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesus Of Suburbia Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 Well, I thought their last album was my last straw but this is definitely it. It's been a good run Fall Out Boy, not as good as the first though. Let me know if they ever do punk-rock or pop-punk ever again.

"Different" is not the descriptor I'd use to measure tastes, here. Honestly, man, if I were hyped on this single and enjoying new FOB in 2017, I'd probably opt to never open the music I purchase and instead sell it a week after it arrived on my doorstep, too. I think I'm starting to understand the angle you work. museummouth, zacooper and dantheriver 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChasHawk Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 I enjoyed the song. They have been pretty quickly evolving over the course of the last 3 albums. I guarantee the entire album doesn't sound like this song, however. Ordered the swirl variant, because FOB... stl_ben and underwaterzoo 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

famousdrumer Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 There's progressing as musicians and expanding your sound to attract new listeners and hopefully retain existing fans. And then there is this blatantly obvious cash grab and attempt to be relevant in music. Sad to see what this 'band' has come to. awful. rogeoa8 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InHybridMoments Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Critics will say that they should stick to what they're good at and fans will say they are brave for taking a bold stance and trying something far outside of their comfort zone.) Personally, I wouldn't want to eat at an ice cream shop that's trying its hand at making sushi, but that's just me. I feel like since FUCT, they have gone to great lengths to reinvent themselves time and time again and it sort of comes across as them being totally lost. For example, on IOH, they brought in Babyface to work on the album -- someone who had nothing in common with TTTYG or FUCT. Brave or dumb? They lost me then, but many people stuck around for IOH and FAD. Now, I have no idea where they've landed and while it's cool that they want to venture out into uncharted territories or whatever, at some point it seems like they have no intention of keeping their second or third wave of fans, let alone their first. If you liked FAD or AB/AP, you might have no interest in this album which seems like a strange strategy. Counter to this, I look at and respect somebody like Taylor Swift who I think has towed the line and kept her old fans happy while having Kendrick Lamar on her album (which appeals to a totally different market segment) which, by the way, was a big departure from her Teardrops on my guitar days. What do I know though . I'll still listen to TTTYG for another 10 years and when they release a Belgian post - crunkcore album in 2027, I'll still think back on the fun I had at their shows in 2004.
