FALL OUT BOY'S
NEW ALBUM, SINGLE, VID, TOUR AND
EXTRA SPACES

The gents of Fall Out Boy have announced a new song, album, video and fall 2017 arena tour.

The wild, genre-stretching single, “Young and Menace,” is out now at all DSPs; check out the video below. The Island/DCD2 full-length M A N I A is slated for release on 9/15 and available for preorder.

Album bundles include a first shot at tour tix.

The Crush Music-repped crew is also trumpeting its 2017 trek, a 20-city North American arena tour that kicks off 10/20 at Cleveland’s Qucken Loans Arena (more info on that here).

$1 from every ticket sold will aid a brace of Chicago-area charities supported by the newly established Fall Out Boy Fund. Because sometimes you spell philanthropy with an “F.”

And yes, that album title is M A N I A, the extra spaces in which are sure to keep our editors—several of whom have difficulty peeling a tangerine—very busy indeed. It is, of course, the follow-up to the band’s #1-bowing, platinum-certified 2015 smash set, American Beauty/American Psycho.

Bassist-lyricist Pete Wentz says the title of “Young and Menace” and its message of embracing rage and other confusing emotions were inspired by his Chicago youth and his immersion in punk rock. He also notes that the video was influenced by Elf.

Also influenced by Elf: Crush’s J.D., Bob and Dan, whose collection of floppy shoes is the envy of the biz.
