Fall Out Boy - MANIA (Jan 19, 2018) Album • Page 4

few of my former coworkers always played EDM stuff @ work and i just couldn't stand it

 

Genre really doesn't have to do anything with why this song sucks

 

People saying this song sucks, what about that Alvin & the Chipmunks feature tho...

 

Yeah can we not pretend this song is indicative of electronic music? That's legitimately offensive to thousands of brilliant artists lol

 

Yeah like I think it's cool they're trying something new for them and stepping outside their comfort zone, I just hate the execution

Also, I'm not a big fan of when Patrick really "belts it out"

 

Absolutely horrendous- and I have loved everything this band has put out.

 

"electronic dance music" is not just mainstream leaning "dubstep"

 

bad EDM is pretty bad
but good EDM is pretty good

(insert any genre)

 

I enjoy the song, the chorus goes on for a bit too long though. I'm interested to see how the rest of the album sounds

 

whoa
steve
mind blown

 

This is a novelty song in the sense that the chorus really surprises you the first time you hear it and catches you off guard, but on repeated listens it feels like it's just a stand-in for where an actual chorus should be. It's gimmicky.

 

This is the first FOB album that I'm not a fan of the first single. Like ABAP, there is a lot going on in the song. Lots of new stuff to try, but it feels like it's too much and it's messy.

 

Well played

 

re: my previous post: I wasn't talking about the thread's reaction to this song if people think that, I meant the general sentiment regarding the genre lol. esp considering I find the chorus pretty annoying

 

Hey, it's a big get for them.

 

...At least it's different?

Don't get me wrong, it's not good at all, but I'm very glad it wasn't just a mid-tempo song with a "big" chorus like My Songs or Centuries. After how bland and bad AB/AP was I at least have a tiny bit of interest in this now, and I say this as someone who is a massive fan of all of their albums before that one. So I guess this makes this song so bad that it's...fascinating?


Oh and the lyrics are horrible, especially the Nikki Sixx line and the "oops I did it again" part

 

give it a month and y'all will love it

 

Opinions are opinions, but I don't see how you could call AB/AP bland. There's so much going on in that album.

 

Yea I just listened for the first time and not feeling the chorus. It might grow on me a bit but it's a bit too jarring for me right now.

Not really any less wanting to listen to the album though, remember when AB/AP the song dropped (although I will admit I liked that more than I do this song). But in any case still interested to hear the album.

 

Alright, after a second time through it I'm pretty sure I'm cool with saying I like the song. I understand why others don't, but something about it works for me.

 

Don't really want to get into this a ton right now but almost every song on there blends together for me

 

N O O O O.

 

best thing was in the zane lowe interview when pete acknowledged that srar and abap were basically the same album cycle. glad they're trying new and challenging things in this cycle. i do hope the rest of the record goes all over the place though and not just stick with the same pseudo-electronic, chopped/pitched vocal thing for all ten tracks.

 

Damn, y'all weren't kidding about this chorus. Woof.
