A band that plays punk-rock music. They are often called fags because their bassist and lyricist ,
Pete Wentz, wears guyliner. Many people, mostly girls ages 14-
18, believe that
Pete Wentz is the hottest thing to
hit the planet since pet rocks, although, without makeup, he is not particularly attractive. Their vocalist, composer, and backup singer is Patrick Stump, their guitarist is Joe Trohman, and their drummer is Andy Hurley. Thier first
hit was
Sugar, We're Going Down, shortly followed by Dance, Dance, and, most recently, Thnks Fr Th Mmrs. They are often called emo, which is partly true, depending on your definition of emo, because some of Fall Out Boy's songs contain suicidal themes and
screamo. This band, for some reason that I cannot comprehend, inspires both extreme hatred and extreme idolization in great multitudes of people, who never actually pay attention to a band's music, only about their friends saying they are gay or talking about how hot Pete Wentz is. They forget to actually listen, or have their own
opinion. Mine, however, is that Fall Out Boy is a good band. I like their music, and I believe that they have never changed their values to satisfy people they don't care about, is a huge acomplishment for anyone, celebrity or not.
