Even if all of their other work is shit or hasn't aged well, this album and Follie A Duex are at least good.
You forgot Cork Tree, together they're probably the best 3 album streak in pop punk
After Life of the Party might be their best song
Thriller is a great song

These, also You're Crashing, But You're No Wave.
>>74722036
What about Take This to Your Grave?
>>74722597
unironically in my top 10 favourite albums, it's everything great about emo and pop punk in one concise, passionate record. cork tree is good too but they really lost their immediacy after that, but i do respect the ambition of infinity and folie.
>>74722732
it is their great divide album imho. It was the end of the pop/punk early 2000s sound and right before the more ridiculous NFL stadium electro-pop
>>74722597
TTTYG is decent but it is dated and not even really representative of their work as a whole at this point. It was the jump off point for Cork Tree more than anything in my opinion.
Folie is their best. Infinity on high is a close second
Holy shit, people actually like Fall Out Boy here? I never thought I'd see the day.

It's the other way around for me, Folie loses some points for me for really petty reasons but I don't like the way it's arranged track by track. How is What A Catch, Donnie *NOT* the final track??
>>74723995
We like Fall Out Boy when they're good, I'm a big fan of when bands and albums are good.

Let's clarify here: PRE-HIATUS FALL OUT BOY IS GOOD. Save Rock and Roll and everything after have not lived up to their predecessors.
>>74724374
I will admit though, Save Rock and Roll has some nice instrumentation and a few choice songs. Just One Yesterday, Miss Missing You and the title track come to mind.

>not The Pheonix
shiggy
>>74724576
You got me there.
Phoenix had some weird lyrics though, or, weirder and harder to parse than usual.
>>74724239
That's like asking "why isn't Runaway the final track on MBDTF?" To me, it just makes sense the way the album rises and falls in tone.
