Fall Out Boy was considered one of, if not the first "emo" band when they released their first album, Take This to Your Grave in 2003. They wrote five albums together in the span of seven years before announcing they would be taking a hiatus in 2009, all of the band members went on to join different groups and go their separate ways for four years now. That is, until they announced yesterday morning that they had not only been working on new material, but finished an album titled Save Rock n' Roll, shot a music video, and planned the accompanying tour (which I'm already planning on attending).
Needless to say, it was a big for not only the fans, but the band as well. After flying under the radar four several years, their debut single, "My Songs Know What You Did in the Dark (light'em up)" was an instant top ten, not 12 hours after being released. By the end of the day, it had jumped to number 2. With a more dance club, dark tone to the song, it strays from the traditional Fall Out Boy sound, while still staying to true to the band's aesthetic. I'm very excited to hear what the rest of the album has in store for the band, and without further - a -do, here's a link to their music video for the new single, fresh off the youtube presses.
