Folie A Deux


I've finally had a chance to give Folie a Deux, the new Fall out Boy CD a good listen. I've had the CD on repeat since the day I got it. This is a different Fall out Boy than we've heard before. Patrick Stump seems more comfortable and his vocals on this album are great. He has a good range and we can finally hear that. The style of songs varries widely. One minute it seems like older Fall Out Boy the next second it sounds like something Panic! At the Disco would have done.

Their first radio single "I Don't Care" is a really fun song and has the typical catchy Fall Out Boy hook. "What a Catch, Donnie" is another stand out song for me on this album. It's a little different than what I'm use to from Fall Out Boy but this slower song is growing on me. "20 Dollar Nose Bleed" features Brandon Urie from Panic at the Disco and sounds like it came off of Pretty Odd. I love these two singing together. One other song I have to mention is "America's Suithearts". That song gets stuck in my head constantly now.

Even if you're not a big fan of Fall Out Boy I would give this album a shot. It's just a good album.
