Huh. I didn't know they had.

Guess I'll go back to not caring.

This does not bode well for the struggling post-fall out boy mascara market...

fall out boy disbanded? If I'd known I'd have drank to that. I think I'll still drink to that.

"Pete Wentz says it's all his fault that Fall Out Boy disbanded"

I know those words, but that headline makes no sense.

Well, thnks fr th mmrs.

Fallout Boy disbanded? Well isn't that S.P.E.C.I.A.L.

That gives me hope that Nickelback will not last forever.

 
CravenMorehead 2009-11-18 02:46:08 PM  
So he isn't such a Wentz after all?

 
monkeyman3875 [TotalFark] 2009-11-18 02:46:09 PM  
I think the world needs a little less Pete Wentz - Pete Wentz

/straight from the Wentz's mouth

Looks like the bottom fell out for Fall Out Boy.

 
Land Ark 2009-11-18 03:02:50 PM  
Um, not to be a "Debbie Downer" or anything - since I'm a dude - but am I the only one to realize we are now potentially going to be subjected to 4 different versions of Fall Out Boy? Or however many Newstyle Hipster Douches were in that band.

Unless one of them happens to land on a future Twilight sound track, I think we're safe.

Dude actually seems pretty level headed...I don't get the hate. FOB songs are insipid but catchy, so they don't outright SUCK...imo.

 
TeddyRooseveltsMustache [TotalFark] 2009-11-18 03:36:54 PM  
Raise your hand, if you would have known they were done without reading the link. That's what I thought. This attention whore is the worst kind of attention whore. The one with a dong.

Yeah, I'm going to have to agree with this. Their bassist was fun, especially.

Also.. no clue they broke up.

Find some better music and don't listen to the radio? Problem solved.

Fall Out Boy disbanded? Christmas came early this year.

Aww damn poor little fella. This is just proof that anything Papa Joe Simpson touches turns to sheyat flavored toothpaste.

FTFA: WENTZ: 'I RUINED FALL OUT BOY

can't do much with that.

PETE WENTZ blames himself for the demise of FALL OUT BOY - because his personal life became a "hindrance" for the band. "My biggest personal reason for taking a break is that I feel my name has become a hindrance for the band."

In other words, you've become so full of yourself that the other band members kicked you out of the band?

 
eagles95 2009-11-18 05:09:54 PM  
besides my tumor not returning this is the best news of the year

 
Lloyd Braun 2009-11-18 05:21:48 PM  
So, when is the cash grab reunion tour?

 
Rickenbacker 2009-11-18 05:23:41 PM  
Funniest quote in the article?

"(Frontman Patrick Stump) is a musical genius"

 
Katastrfee 2009-11-18 06:09:50 PM  
I'll wait to see what Stump does next. I could maybe stand half of each album, and maybe 2-3 minutes of each album were catchy enough to stick in my head and not be horribly annoying.

I'm really hoping that Stump improves his enunciation, stays away from his falsetto, and get lyrics that aren't as trite in the future because he really does have a decent voice.

Over in 1.

 
mylonitic 2009-11-18 07:30:36 PM  
I don't care. I will never forgive them for pissing on Ian Curtis' grave with their rage-inducing, sense-assaulting, caterwauling, arse-raping of a cover of Love Will Tear Us Apart.

FOB can hire any of them to replace Wentz if they're going on looks alone (which they must be):

I don't know about "musical genius," but I always thought he could do more. He's got a pretty good voice.

 
Sherjo311 2009-11-18 08:19:56 PM  
i saw a commercial for these guys' greatest hits album. how many lp's have they even put out, like 2?

 
KNaBisco [TotalFark] 2009-11-18 08:29:04 PM  
Is "Wentzbag" redundant like "ATM Machine" or "Pin Number?"

 
rollinghills 2009-11-18 10:04:08 PM  
Id say his marriage is over in 3-2-1 ... because as FAIL as Ashlee is shes still more marketable than he is - and shell be like 'fark no I dont want to sell AMWAY'

I must concur. Besides, this has the making for a short lived variety show starring Mr. and Mrs. Wentz. Not to mention collaborations between former band members and possible reunions.

Maybe he isn't such a Kanye after all.

Fallout Boy broke up? How did we not hear this much sooner and why was it not accompanied with a Newsflash tag?

GavinTheAlmighty 2009-11-19 10:06:17 AM  
Meh, I didn't hate them. And in their genre, they did sound pretty unique, especially the lead singer. I actually kind of liked Dance Dance and This Ain't A Scene or whatever that song was called.

"And the bassist is sick of seeing his face on the cover of magazines, because he is now better known as a tabloid celebrity than as a musician."

that's his own fault. he has himself to blame. when celebrities get all butt-hurt because they've become infamous, i laugh.

he didn't even play his bass live. it was a sampled track. no joke. i've met the techs from that band.

What a maroon. He is a wentz. The archetypical wentz. The wentz to end all wentzes.

 
MDGeist 2009-11-19 03:04:13 PM  
Bummer, I kind of started to like them. They did a great cover of Beat it.

 
Spockrocket 2009-11-19 03:41:02 PM  
I'm not much of a drinker, but this is definitely cause for celebration.

//anyone know where an under-21 can get champagne in Hoboken?

 
ParadisePornoTheater 2009-11-19 05:19:42 PM  
Didn't hear about the breakup 'til just now. Good news anyway. Too bad Prince Douchebag still has a career and brand.

I've seen them live twice. My girlfriend loves them. He played his bass live both times.

My cousin has played with them (recently, actually) and he does play live. In fact, he screws up a lot. So...you, and your "tech friends", fail.

 
KNaBisco [TotalFark] 2009-11-20 05:06:22 PM  
Your cousin is clearly a wentz by association.

 
WienerButt 2009-11-20 06:56:48 PM  
Yes, a young, wealthy wentz that is popular worldwide. What a farking loser...
