Bronx Mogli's diapers must be running up the tab at the Wentz household. To be a kid that's raising kids again...

I think there needs to be a rule where you can only release a greatest hits album after your band has been around for 10 years. These guys haven't reached that point yet.

I guess they'll do anything to make cash though.

Label's own master recordings. The labels usually decide to do these.

I used to really like a few songs. especially 16 candles and grand theft autumn. This cute chick I used to pharmacy tech with like them to. I tried to parlay that into getting her to like other pop-punk and date me but she wasn't having it.

Usually prattling about "This band isn't good enough for a greatest hits album" aside, I always think that it's a bit presumptuous to include new songs on a greatest hits collection. Do they re-release the album and remove the songs if the new songs are terrible and they don't become hits?

I dunno you gotta kinda assume it's for established fans who are probably happy to have knew toones.

They're just not greatest hits yet. When the record comes out, then they'll be hits. Just wait and see

It's a good (albeit shady) way to entice fans who already have all the records to buy this.

I liked their first two albums. They're good records, but I wouldn't call'em pop punk.

The hooks on that second album in particular are so ridiculously catchy. That's the only one i've been able to enjoy by these guys.

Blech. I'm of the apologetic Green Day Dookie, Blink-182 Dude Ranch generation.

It's kind of weird and sad to see FallOutBoy becoming of the ranks of the "Well, back when I was ____ years old, this was my life".

How do you have a greatest hits album if you only have 5 albums. And haven't even been a band for 10 years? The new Foo Fighters Greatest Hits album makes sense. They have been together for 15 years, and have what 8 albums now. Each going platinum. I don't understand this at all!

Don't think they're all platinum. There's only 6 proper full length studio albums, as well.

Report

jacknife737 (October 2, 2009)

To be fair, i think they probably have more 'hits" than most bands who put these out.

Still, there should be a rule that nobody under the age of 35 can release one of these.

OK. I am from Generation Beavis and had the joy of being raised on the likes of Insomniac, Punk in Drublic, . . . Wolves, and Wiggle. I'd never really heard this band, just the hype, so have just watched all the videos I could stand of theirs on youtube. As I figured, they suck. They are just a more bland rip-off of Jimmy Eat World. In fact, cashiers should just hand the kids who go to buy Fall Out Boy albums copies of "Bleed American". A pareto improvement for all concerned, except of course this knock off band. And any who calls it pop-punk needs to go get themselves impaled.
