Fall Out Boy is a Chicago based band, that actually had a life before MTV.

It has four members; Pete Wentz, Patrick Stump, Joe Trohman and Andy Hurley.

For those of you who think Fall Out Boy are emo posers; they aren't. They aren't even emo, and, like I said, had a life before MTV. It's MTV that made them so popular, along with some air headed teenage girls, who only listen to them because 'PeTe Iz SoOoOoO hAwT!!!!!11'.

Oh, and by the way, there is no 'Tom' in Fall Out Boy. On the From Under The Cork Tree album, some tracks were mixed by Tom Lord-Alge, which could be the cause of this misconception of the invisible 'Tom'.
Air Head : OMG, LIEK PETE FROM FALL OUT BOY IZ SOOO HAWT!!!!!1
Normal person : Air is leaking out.

1. A Chicago-based band whose sound is characterized by crunchy metallic riffs and by stop-start rhythms, as well as sometimes cheeky, sometimes emotional lyrics.

Could be (and often is) described as part of the modern pop-punk emo movement, though it has to be noted they are far more rock-oriented and electrically charged than self-admittedly emo bands such as Dashboard Confessional.

Started out fairly indie but has since gained a huge mainstream "pop" audience.

Biggest hits include: Sugar We're Going Down, Dance Dance

Similar bands include: Funeral For A Friend, Panic! at the Disco

2. In the popular TV show The Simpsons, Fallout Boy is superhero Radioactive Man's sidekick.

2. "Radioactive man, look out!" screamed Fallout Boy.

a band. if you like them fine, if you don't, fine. personally i don't and i've heard some songs, i'm not pulling that opinion out of my ass, like some of these retards. and they're not punk/emo. they are pop. most of the bashing retards wouldn't know emo if it stabbed them in the eye. emo is just another form of punk, not a bunch of pussies in girls' pants slitting they're wrists. i don't know what those tools are. and no need to be homophobic. you can express your hate for something without being a bigot. saying nothing but "gay", "fag", "queer" makes you look like a stupid, homophobic, asshole with no vocabulary, who therefore shouldn't be taken seriously. I've had to thumb down quite a few otherwise valid and funny defintions for being homophobic. not cool.
FanGirl:"OMG! LyKe.....FOB is so0o pUnk RaWk!"
Me:"No, not quite."
Homophobic Asshat:"Fuck Fag Out Boy! Emo faggots and they're gay ass shitty emo music!!"
Me:"Have you even heard 1 Fall Out Boy's of songs?"
Asshat:"Fuck no! I'm not listening to that queer fag crap."
Me:"So, how do you know they suck? Is it because most of their fans are girls? So, just because something is liked by girls it's worthless? Wow, a homophobe AND a misogynst!"
Asshat:"Miso-what? Whatever. Fuck emo fags."
Me: "Define emo."
Asshat:"...It's....those whiny little fags in girls' pants and makeup who.."
Me: "Wrong, tool. Why don't you go learn stuff for yourself instead of accpeting what MTV tells ou it is. I thought you didn't watch MTV?"

Founded in 2000 this band did not start out on top. With the newest album at the moment (from under the cork tree)there sound is different that it has been in the past.
usually Fall out boy's songs have a awesome title like our Lawyer made us change the name of this song so we wouldn't get sued.

Fall Out Boy is commonly mistaken for an emo band, but in fact, they are not. They are mainstream/pop/punk, and are sometimes called emo because they look slightly emo.

I'm going to admit that I never heard of Fall Out Boy until I heard "Sugar We're Going Down" on MTV. I fell in love with the song and proceeded to go out and buy their CD NOT because they were on MTV, but because I liked the music and could care less whether or not TRL put it on the number one spot or no. Since then, I have learned all the lyrics to ALL of their songs, even -GASP- the songs before MTV stuck their big ass noses into good music and twisted it into a "trend" they know will get them a big ass pay check. MTV is not worthy to be called "Music Television" as it no longer plays any "good" music anymore.

Many of you will be shocked to hear that FOB is not emo. Just because Pete happens to wear skinny jeans and eyeliner doesn't mean he has to wear this stupid ass lable that butt-fuck MTV exec's put on him. Anybody who calls them "emo", I have a special message for you: Shut up you incoherent asshole. Maybe if you would actually think with the brain God gave you and not with your ass, you might actually find some good bands. Stop calling them emo when you don't even know what the fuck it means.

And for all of you saying that Patrick can't sing, GO FUCK YOURSELF WITH THE MIC YOU "TRY" TO SING INTO BECAUSE, EXCUSE ME, PATRICK IS THE ONE ON STAGE SINGING AND YOU, MY FRIEND, ARE NOT.

I for one listen to Fall Out Boy because of the music and if Pete and Patrick just so happen to be attractive its a extra bonus. So shut the fuck up and if you don't like FOB, that's your business, not mine, but don't fill someone else's ears with your half-assed "rants" because, believe it or not, THEY might actaully listen to the music and not what these asshole magazines say about them or some fat ass music critic whose whole life has been dedicated to sitting around on his blubbery ass watching MTV and listening to whatever radio station he listens to.
Buttfuck#1: FOB is so emo. I'm going to listen to them just because MTV says to and this magazine says they're emo.
Buttfuck#2: Dude, I know. Maybe if we listen to Fall Out Boy and think Pete is hot people will think we're emo.
Me: SHUT THE FUCK UP. YOU DO NOT DESERVE THE AIR YOU BREATHE. YOUR CONTINUED EXISTENCE IS A WASTE OF SPACE.
(proceeds to kick their little wannabe-emo asses)
Buttfucks:(cry and go sit in a corner so their friends can take pictures of them and post on myspace to show how emo they are)
