Not sure if this has been made before, I searched but I really didn't feel like going through all 41 pages. Sorry.
Anyway, ever since they made it into the mainstream radio stations, it just seems like Fall Out Boy, mainly Pete Wentz, have been just trying to get on TRL/MTV and all this publicity stuff. Now, when I listen to their music, it's just not the same. Plus, I hate Sugar We're Going Down now. Well, only time will tell. P.S. If this post doesnt make sense, I blame it on it being past midnight. |

QUOTE(Acid Bath Slayer @ Mar 15 2006, 8:41 PM)  The problem with that is to abtain such levels of fame and fortune you need to sign a contract. And, in most cases, that contract binds the artist, in many cases, not to pump out "fabulous music." Ya dig?  [I'm not being mean. I just wanted to sound it, so I could say, "Ya dig?" Cool.] Fall Out Boy is signed to Fueled By Ramen which I think does a good job of NOT binding their artists to be a certain way. All the bands in that record label have different styles of music. They have a hip hop/indie band for god's sake. Is that what you meant by contract? And as for their "ways of gaining fame" if you mean the pictures incident, Pete's sidekick got HACKED, you can't really prevent that. Or hey, maybe he put them out on the internet by himeself. He's a dirty boy. I can see your point though because yeah I think TRL is tacky and just, stupid as well. They have to make money. This is their JOB. They HAVE to make money off of it. If that means going on TRL, so be it. Their loyal fans will stick with them. |
