, October 19, 2007Reviewer: katy0819 - See all katy0819's reviewsPros: Pete Wentz!, FOB's amazing sound
Cons: Some less peppy songs
What a follow-up.
After Fall Out Boy's multi-platinum record, "From Under the Cork Tree," many fans wondered how they could get better.
While some accuse the band of becoming sellouts, I couldn't disagree more. FOB has matured and found a new point of view for their newest album.
I really loved Hum Hallelujah. It's a great mix of peppy sounds and Pete's amazing lyrics. It's been stuck in my head forever.
I also found joy in I'm Like A Lawyer With the Way I'm Always Trying to Get You Off (Me & You), another catchy tune that seems to be about the girl from Dance, Dance, but before the break up.
My least favorite song on the disc was definitely Golden. I think the lyrics are well-done but FOB sure could have put another tune with it and gotten their point across much better. For that matter, Pete even let me down a little bit, because I know he can do better.
Overall, a disc worth picking up, and as I write this, I'm in my dorm, pining away about missing their show in my town tonight because I have to pay tuition. ...

Pro Reviews: Infinity On High
| EXPERT RATING: From AMG Reviews A funny thing happened to Fall Out Boy on the road to Infinity on High: they got famous. Before 2005's From Under the Cork Tree they were just another poppunk unit from suburban Chicago happy to break even at shows with gas money. Next thing anyone knew, they were headlining arenas and being heralded as the new face of poppunk alongside their peers in My Chemical Romance. It was a position that never seemed to rest easy with the guys, and because of this, Infinity on High seems a bit conflicted. Fall Out Boy wants to charm everyone here. They want to prove themselves to critics by moving past the confines of emo, allowing a love of all things pop to come right to the forefront. Yet they also want to resonate directly with those dayone fans who may long for the intimate VFW shows of yesterday. This disparity makes points of the record seem awkward, and for the first time, the band appears to overthink things. Pete Wentz' lyrics are oftentimes full of resentment, full of fameinduced angst, and really emphasize Wentz's need to drive home his position that stardom has not changed the band. So it's in weird contrast to these sentiments that JayZ is the one opening the album and calling out haters who said FOB would fail. The glorification of their celebrity abruptly switches into Patrick Stump stating (pleading?) that the band is not buying into the hype nor do they even want it. "Make us poster boys for your scene/but we are not making an acceptance speech" is defiant, and when his sweet voice asserts "Crowds are won and lost and won again/but our hearts beat for the diehards," it's clear that FOB still hold their roots close. But this is contradicted by the fact that the album's majority is far and away their poppiest material to date, more pop/rock than poppunk, which inevitably means more interesting to those who know them just as that "Dance, Dance" band with the mediawhoring bassist, Pete Wentz. |
