what a match! i'm half-doomed/and you're semi-sweet!

fall out boy is a chicago-based pop-punk/emo band originally put together in 2001 by bassist pete wentz, guitarist joe trohman, and singer patrick stump. andy hurley, fall out boy's drummer, joined a little later; patrick was originally planning on playing drums. fall out boy really changed the scene of pop punk music in the 2000s and helped to define the sounds of many other bands who were influenced by them!

my personal favourite albums are folie à deux (2008), from under the corktree (2005), and so much (for) stardust (2023) :D

during fall out boy's hiatus, patrick stump released his solo album soul punk in 2009, another musical favourite of mine. he also worked alongside disney junior to write the soundtracks for spidey and his amazing friends, which are surprisingly really good and pretty clearly influenced by the typical style of fall out boy. maybe worth a listen!
