Chicago’s Fall Out Boy came together in suburban Wilmette around 2001. The quartet used the unbridled intensity of hardcore as a foundation for melody-drenched pop-punk. Take This to Your Grave appeared in May 2003, and Fall Out Boy garnered positive reviews for their tour appearances. Their breakout album, the ambitious From Under the Cork Tree, followed in spring 2005, quickly reaching the Top Ten and spawning two Top Ten hits with “Sugar We’re Going Down” and “Dance, Dance.” The album went double platinum, and earned the guys a Grammy nomination for Best New Artist. Fall Out Boy’s star status in the underground had boiled over into the mainstream. They toured extensively behind the album,in addition to appearing on TRL, late-night television, and music award shows. Without taking a break, the guys hunkered down to work on their follow-up record. Infinity on High appeared in early February 2007, spearheaded by the hit single “This Ain’t a Scene, It’s an Arms Race.” The album continued Fall Out Boy’s streak, debuting at Number One on the Billboard charts and going platinum about a month later. They released American Beauty/American Psycho in 2015. Fall Out Boy continues to perform to packed arenas. Great show!
