      Re: Fall Out Boy - Folie A Deux

      I just picked this up earlier today before going to work...

      ...then listened to it nonstop on the way there, while at work, and on the way home.

      I really like the album as a whole... I'll have to give it some time before I compare it to the other ones, though.

        fixed.

        I'm sorry, but I must have forgotten how great he was of a vocalist or this album just features it more. I'm kinda blown away at his talent vocally.

          This album definitely highlights his range a lot more and, while lyrically it may not be as strong as the past, vocally it is head and shoulders above.

            Some good songs, the rest are just in the "decent" category for me. I will say though, Patrick's voice is one of the more dynamic ones I can remember in recent memory. It is a shame that Fall Out Boy has that stigma around them and more people can't hear how talented he is.
            What is the stigma that they have?

              Maybe it's just in people my age and area, or with the people I hang out with/know...but if you listen to Fall Out Boy, you're "not straight."

              Don't know how many times I've been driving my friends around, they scroll through my iPod, see Fall Out Boy and go: "Wow, you ***" or something along those lines.

              Among those people who can't appreciate different tastes in music and what not, they have that stigma that they're a talentless, high-school girl band and all that dumb ****.

                Gotcha. It's like that around here too, but most of my friends are metalheads, so everything that's not brutal is gay, lol. I'm exaggerating, but it's not the most open minded group. Rock Band has me broadening my horizons, so I'm giving certain things a try.


                I'm streaming the FOB from myspace now, but it's not looking good for them, lmao.

                  Yeah, I like pretty much all of the music my friends like...but unlike them, I also like a lot of other music as well so I get harassed for having Fall Out Boy, or The Academy Is... or country music on my iPod because they think it's "gay."

                    I love 20 Dollar Nose Bleed. Such a good song.

                      Disloyal Order of Water Buffaloes, America's Suitehearts, Tiffany Blews and The (Shipped) Gold Standard.

                        I've noticed the last two FOB CD's really reel you in on that first song. Every time I listen to that first song I feel like listening to the whole CD.

                          There are some metalheads where I work at and they have a big range of rock and country tastes. Its weird how they can go from listening to Metallica straight into CCR or Johnny Cash. Not exactly a good transition for a mix, LOL.

                          As for FOB, I can't really stand listening to them at all.

                            I should clarify a little. My friends aren't casual metalheads. They don't listen to Metallica at all. They are all guys who play/played in touring bands, so they've picked up some really obscure CDs over the years. They listen to Cynic, Necrophagist, Faceless, Symphony X, Blood has Been Shed, etc...and kinda consider Metallica to be "pop" metal. I don't mean to paint them as elitists, but there are hundreds of these bands, and hearing this stuff on the road constantly really changes the ear.

                            For me, Fall Out Boy is just about a mood that I'm not into. I think they are good at conveying that mood, but I'm not sure if I ever feel the emotions they are trying to share. Plus I generally tune out singers, and only listen to the instruments, so bands that are so heavily geared towards the vocals tend to go by me.

                              You should get them set-up on RateYourMusic.com - that place seems to be a mecca for metalheads.

                                I didn't like Disloyal Order of Water Buffaloes at first but it's really grown on me. Might be one of the stronger tracks on the album as far as lyrics. I love belting "Boycott Love!"

                                Overall, it's been a long while since I had a full album that I could truly sing along to and really get into it.
