I know of fall out boy and heard some songs earlier and this new video was just as i expected it to be...GARBAGE

 

[Z500]

the thing i hate most about FOB is how they get consistently labeled "punk."

 

[localz]

[that1dude]

Those who voted "Can't Stand Them" are probably ignorant heavy metal fans (there are a few on this part of the forum).

I voted "Good". I didn't like "This Ain't A Scene, It's An Arms Race", but "Thanks for the Memories" is good...catchy.

No I dont just listen to heavy metal, I will also listen to anything that is pleasing to my ears not limited to metal but inlcuding, sublime, gorillaz, Icp, Alice in chains, some of hole and no doubt and even the cure.

I just dont like that band, your musical taste may wildly differ from mine but just because I chose cant stand them does not mean I am an ignorant metal head,

BTW you have a great taste in games TES 3 and 4 were awesome.....just too bad they werent online so many nights spent playing those games

Nope, not a metal head just can't stand them.

 

[marduke]

some catchy tunes but thats about it..... nothing spectacular from FOB, sounds like most other emo/pop/punkish band out there

nice job making ignorant assumptions. I (an ignorant metal fan), probably listen to a far wider spectrum of music than yourself, it just so happens that FOB falls under the bar for even 'tolerable' to me. The reason i don't listen to radio music is quality. in other words, Why would you go for the potted meat when there's a t-bone steak in front of you? I'd choose better sounding, better quality music over that stuff anyday.

And its not just metal i listen to either, sure, its my 'specialty', but at work, i have some chill jazz mixes playing in my exam room all day. No one guesses that i jam to Dissection, skinny puppy, misfits, and Front 242 at other times.

yeah, its funny that mine can handle 4, but when i try to play some good old morrowind, it crashes and freezes...

 

[serephim02]

Yes Morrowind is far superior TBH, sighhh...I had a high level nord on xbox than it crashed. FOB was just too irritating for me to stand, I am sure they have some good song but that voice is what drives me nuts. I dont even like some of COF's old stuff.

 

[Chrome]

COF was never really good to me, even in their older 'tr00' days.

anyway, i agree about TES3 and 4, Oblivion was beautiful, but it lacked the depth that Morrowind had, and besides, Oblivion doesn't have the UNDERGROUND for it.

speaking of which, my old computer couldn't run morrowind with the Underground too well, and i was hoping i could actually finish it on my new laptop. Man was i disappointed.

Hey! The only kind of Metal I like is Hair.

I just happen to like songs with instrumentation that's more than a din.

please stop calling FOB "punk" (i know you qualified it with emo, pop, and -ish, but still)

thank you

I suppose I'd like to apologize for metalists for my generalization. Most of my music class at high-school consists of metalists, and I suppose even though I do like some metal (mostly the 80s hair-metal kind), I sort of get that impression that most metalists scorn everything that isn't metal.

 

[Chrome]

metalists

laughing...

anyway, we 'metalists' get alot of stereotyping, and personally, (and it appears not only me), i take generalizations seriously. At work today, i was explaining the 'emo' phenomenon to another soldier, when this one guy butts in "yeah, they cut themselves and stuff, people call them goth too, emos and goths are the same!", i turned my focus on him, because, coming from that subculture, it pains me to know that someone is so ignorant of a subculture they judge.

btw, if you have to use some sort of term for fans of metal and metal subculture, then i'd recommend metalheads.

 

[Z500]

i'm not sure whether to laugh or cry whenever ignorance shows itself on this forum
