Oh Fall Out Boy, where does one even begin with you? Providing the soundtrack to many of our lives with their first album (does An Evening Out With Your Girlfriend count if they didn't want it released?) pop-punk greatness Take This To Your Grave, angsty From Under The Cork Tree and wildly popular Infinity On High they appeared to be an unstoppable force. However, it seemed that despite its matured excellence, people didn't quite adopt Folie a Deux with the same kind of passion, and along with a stream of internal issues led to the four calling it quits for an indefinite hiatus. A period of almost four years - and rumours every other week of a comeback - that fans don't like talking about ensued before they came blasting back on what was to be just another Monday. Of course Fall Out Boy being Fall Out Boy didn't just do this with a simple "hey we're gonna start touring again" tweet but the promise of shows for that same day, an album in a couple of months and a new song with a video for the world to sob over. Everyone seemed to rejoice. How the band managed to keep this a secret is insane as a long list of people were involved with this, the album itself has four guests, but alas the boys are back, and as the first single "My Songs Know What You Did In The Dark (Light 'Em Up)" says, and are on fire.
