Fall Out Boy

Peeking smugly from the garish leaves of commercial rock magazines...Fall Out Boy are a corporate scourge of epidemic proportions.

Fronted by eyeliner-abusing, three-chord wonder boy Pete Wentz, F.O.B. forge ahead in their formulaic quest to wring every last drop of creativity from the already sickly, suppurating arm of the music industry. 



Boasting a tried-and-tested artillery of recycled riffs and epic-length song titles, each Prozac-happy expulsion of pop-punk effluvia grows more wearisome than the last.  While all things palatable and predictable are, albeit, necessary evils, inalienable from mainstream glory, the Chicago foursome have truly sacrificed their side-parted souls in favour of this bland, mass-marketing ideology.
