- Well, see, I feel like this song is different, you know,
compared to their early, early ones.
So I feel like they've changed a lot.
- Even in the early 2000s, they were kinda like the '90s band
with the '90s mentality and that kinda like the floppy hair.
And they were just playing guitar and having fun.
And then this is when they more became a mid-2000s band.

That's tight. I'll [bleep] with that.
- I feel like I'm smiling a lot. It's just 'cause I love them.
- His voice is so unique, so you can notice it.
But they just add so many different types of music
and sounds to it that it just, like--
I don't know. It changes it entirely. But it's all good.
- I love that their sound has stayed so consistent over time.
But it's still very modern and current with what's popping now.
- I'm a fan of their newer stuff still.
I'm not one of those people that's like,
"Oh, they suck now 'cause their music isn't the same
as when they were 20."
It's like, mm, music is music.
- You can ask someone who was 12 when they listened to them
and they're 21 now and ask them if they enjoy Fall Out Boy,
and the answer's probably yes.
- (FBE) Fall Out Boy has had a massive following
for over a decade now. - Me included, yes.
- (FBE) What do you think about
how their music has grown over time? - It's changed.
Especially now hearing that new track, that new single,
it's so different.
- Although they've stayed consistent,
they're definitely keeping up with the time.
But they're still not compromising the sound of Fall Out Boy,
which I totally respect.
- A lot of people say, "I don't like modern Fall Out Boy
because it's not pop punk."
But every band goes through evolutions, you know?
And so if you're a true fan,
you're gonna support whatever they come out with, you know?
And you're gonna see the beauty in it.
- (FBE) So for you, as a big fan,
can you talk about why you love Fall Out Boy?
- It brings people together. Music brings people together.
Like, just the lyrics itself, it's just inspiring.
And it also motivates people, and it gets them pumped up.
- Whenever I'm just feeling down, I just listen to their music.
And it just picks me right back up again.
There's one song for every emotion I feel like that I'm feeling.
- They're just an icon of our childhood, especially mine,
like just with my friends too. Like, we were always--
It was always on somewhere.
- They just remind me of, like, just middle school.
Those bands that were with you
and for some reason put you in a good mood.
- I didn't really become a true emo kid
until halfway through high school.
Um, and it really helped me
feel connected, and same with Panic! at the Disco.
Same with Green Day, you know?
All these different bands just connected broken kids.
- As a kid, I feel like I've really resonated
with Patrick the most,
because I was like the little chubby kid, too, growing up.
He's the lead vocalist for this sick band, like really cool band.
Like, "I can do some cool shit, too, when I'm older."
- (FBE) So the group went on hiatus back in 2010,
and many fans were devastated.
But they're back now and releasing albums,
including one titled "Mania," that's coming out later this year.
- Yes, I'm excited. Put it on my Hanukkah list.
- (FBE) Are you excited for that album?
- Yeah. I'm, like--
I feel like I'm a newly born Fall Out Boy fan.
- Hell yeah, I am.
Just from listening to what I've heard so far, I like it.
You know? And I'm excited to see what other songs that they have.
- I don't think I've ever sat down
and listened to an entire Fall Out Boy album.
But I'm definitely gonna hear these songs and be happy
and relate to some of them and be like,
"Yep, Fall Out Boy's still around."
And I'll be happy in that knowledge.
- I already pre-ordered it the day it came out,
and I already got my concert tickets for that tour.
So I'm kinda like excited just a little bit.
Anyone can enjoy it.
I mean, even my mom, when I make her listen to it,
she enjoys it.
My nephew, they had their songs in Big Hero 6.
He was singing "Immortals," and it made me so happy.
