Fall Out Boy - So Much (For) Stardust (March 24,2023) Band • Page 9

TTYG
Infinity
FUCT
Folie

SRAR

AB/AP
Mania

I don’t actively dislike any of them. Hoping the new one slots in the upper category somewhere

 

Laura just loves shit talking on twitter haha

 

For me Folie is tops, just a 100%/A+ album, and TTTYG is on the bottom (a couple great songs, still enjoy it for the nostalgia, but not something I would love on the whole if it were just released today) and everything else kind of floats around in between. Sometimes I'm more partial to FUTCT/IOH and sometimes I'm more into the post-hiatus stuff, but they each have their hits and misses.

 

Folie
Infinity
SRAR
Cork Tree
AB/AP
Mania/TTTYG

I don't think their debut's aged well and they immediately started doing more interesting stuff on Cork Tree.

 

Swap SRAR with Cork Tree and AB/AP with Mania, and this is where I’m at as well

 

I’d probably go something like

FUTCT
Folie
IOH
TTTYG
Mania
SRAR
ABAP

I don’t dislike the post hiatus stuff at all, just more nostalgia attached to the others.

Folie
TTTYG

FUTCT

Mania

SRAR

AB/AP

I do like big chunks of AB/AP, but between the mix and my vote for least favorite FOB song (Immortals, it makes me nauseous), I just think it was a bit of a swing and miss. I was more positive on it at the time but with age it hasn't kept up with me.

 

Folie
IOH
FUTCT

TTTYG
SRAR

AB/AP
Mania

Really, I love the top 5 and like the bottom 2. I ranked TTTYG above SRAR due to nostalgia, but older me probably enjoys SRAR a little more.

 

wasn't big on their last two but enjoying this new song. cool.

 

TTTY
FUCT
FA
IOH

I've never been able to get into more than a handful of songs on the last 3 albums.

 

folie á deux
infinity on high

mania
take this to your grave
american beauty/american psycho

idk something had to be last. all of these records are good

 

After listening to these guys pretty much non-stop the last two days I'd say I am at

Folie
Mania
IOH
FUTCT
SRAR
TTTYG
AB/AP

 

Crazy to see TTTYG so low on many of your lists.

Whenever I play any track off that album I just get a rush of nostalgia. Lyrics don't hold up since I'm not an angsty teen anymore but it's still a great album.

 

what have i done

 

anyway, all the IOH comparisons made me revisit that album this morning and mannn its so good. Afterlife of the Part is my jam.

 

I hear some Alk3 crimson/agony&irony in the instrumentation on the new song

 

The comparison is definitely a reach. The dogs are portraying completely different emotions lol.

also,

MANIA/ABAS

 

I’m certain if I listened to this band for the first time today, TTYG would fall somewhere in the bottom half of my rankings, but that album made such an immense impact on me in 2003 that it really doesn’t matter to me how it’s aged. I’m blind to that because of the rush of joy putting it on brings me. That record was so transformative for me, and I have so much nostalgia wrapped up in it. Pretty easily one of my top 10-15 albums of all time.

 

Folie is honestly the only album of theirs I’ve loved, but I like it so much that I still get excited when I hear they’re releasing new music.

 

yeah its basically how I feel about Tell All Your Friends. era defining album for me, age defining album for me, probably influenced me in more ways than i'll ever realize, but, certainly at the bottom tier of rankings now with this large of a discography. TTTYG also has some lyrical content that now makes me make the jim halpert yikes face.

 

Which album from their current discography is this new song the most closely aligned with? Anything similar to this on their last 3 albums?

 

I had no idea how many people disliked AB/AP. It's my second favorite after IOH.
