* LyricalDissonance: ''7 Minutes in Heaven (Atavan Halen)'', which is about Wentz's suicide attempt, is written to happy, fun music. It's quite misleading.

* LyricalDissonance: ''7 Minutes in Heaven (Atavan Halen)'', which is about Wentz's suicide attempt, is written to happy, fun music. It's quite misleading. Most of the lyrics on Infinity On High gets this treatment too.
** WordOfGod stated that I Don't Care was "Like the chorus says, 'I don't care what you think as long as it's about me.' It's that pop culture thing again, where people don't care about anything but the superficial, and I think there's something so tragic about that. I also thought there was something so ironically anthemic about the chorus, where it's not something you want to sing along to, because it's vacuous and empty. So I wanted something really anthemic underneath it, like something you'd hear at sports games or whatever, because I wanted people to hear it and be confronted with how empty that is. I didn't want anything to be superficial on this record unless the point was to point out superficiality".

---> ''I'm in the de-details with the devil/So now the world can never get me on my level/I just got to get you out of the cage/I'm a young lover's rage/Gonna need a spark to ignite''

They have numerous music videos, including one where they pretended to be vampire hunters that went on for about seven minutes (A Little Less SixteenCandles, A Little More "Touch Me"), and with Turk from ''Series/{{Scrubs}}'' and a ridiculous amount of Michael Jackson reference (for their cover of "Beat It"). Other notable deeds the band has committed include one of them impregnating Ashlee Simpson, wearing remarkably tight trousers, almost getting a Guinness World Record for playing a live concert on all seven continents in a certain amount of time, being loved by [[{{Blink182}} Mark]] [[{{TropeCodifier}} Hoppus]], getting on ''TopOfThePops'' with a song about wanting to kill themselves and having some really strange lyrics. They also have a comic called ''ComicBook/FallOutToyWorks'', a {{Cyberpunk}} love story with [[GainaxEnding one big mind screw of an ending]]. As is to be expected from them.

During the hiatus, Patrick started a solo musical effort, Pete has started a dancehall band turned EDM act called the Black Cards, and Joe and Andy have wrapped up work with rock supergroup The Damned Things (also featuring members of {{Anthrax}} and Every Time I Die). Andy is doing guest drumming with Enabler and Joe started a new band called With Knives (where he [[HiddenDepths does lead vocals]]).

As of February 4, 2013, Fall Out Boy stated the end of their hiatus as they finished their recording of their newest album, "Save Rock And Roll" coming May 6th and 7th. [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_profilepage&v=HsfY8iFbYjE Seriously]].

Fall Out Boy are a pop-punk band from Illinois, home of Screeching Weasel, Alkaline Trio, and the Smoking Popes. Whether or not they belong to the "Music/{{emo}}" genre depends on your definition of "{{emo}}" and that's quite a controversial label to go around slapping upon things these days, so we'll leave it up to you.
