Fall Out Boy - MANIA (Jan 19, 2018) Album • Page 151

I don’t dislike The Take Over but I’ve heard it enough to skip it every time over the last few years... but Tiffany Blews?! That’s like one of my favorite FOB songs ever haha


All good - I appreciate you sharing dude. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion and I’m definitely in the minority on a bunch of opinions when it comes to this site lol

 

wait people don't like "The Take Over, the Break's Over"??? news to me

 

The (Shipped) Gold Standard and Tiffany Blews are probably in my top 5 FOB songs of all time. Goddamn, Folie is still incredible.

 

if i was a mod i'd ban you

 

is this an unreleased FOB song

 

Nice

 

i skip golden but that's it for the entire discography

 

Goddamn this is just reminding me how amazing they were pre-hiatus

I still really like SR&R and Mania but their first four, especially 2-4, are just nonstop quality imo

 

I honestly think I listened to MANIA like twice and never again

 

I was so worried about Lil Wayne being in Tiffany Blews, but it works quite nicely

 

Crazy that whenever they drop the next record they will have as many albums pre-hiatus as they do post-hiatus

 

"used to!"

 

I am so so interested to see where they go on the next album

 

Almost skipped the last 3 pages of the thread. With all the bad takes I've read in them , I should have.

 

In retrospect now, was Folie as big of departure as it was when it came out? When you listen to it does it flow next to Infinity?

 

I always thought Folie is a better version of IOH.

 

Yeah me too, doesn't sound that much different.

 

Yeah, I never understood the description of it as a departure. The change from TTTYG to FUTCT seemed more abrupt than the change from IOH to FAD.

 

FAD always seemed "slower" in how the songs were composed, and doesn't have as much of a frenetic energy that IOH has. Like if you sped up the songs by 1.1-1.25x the original speed they seem like IOH songs

 

I never felt this was a huge departure tbh

 

i 100% see this!!! I never thought about it this way, but definitely this.

 

TTTYG turns 17 today. These anniversaries make me feel old.

 

Tempted

 

It's almost old enough to outgrow itself!

 

Cooperstown is a good song but it's overrated as hell. Not even in the top five on that album.
