Info for So Much (For) Stardust

So Much (For) Stardust marks a homecoming for the band on multiple fronts; the first of which found the band reuniting with renowned producer Neal Avron, whom they’ve worked with on three previous albums (From Under the Cork Tree, Infinity on High, Folie à Deux). On working with Avron for this record, Stump notes: “Neal not only taught us how to make records, but has a unique capacity to really take time and focus on a record. We thought it was a no-brainer to work with him again, on a record where that was very important to us, and he was gracious enough to agree to work with us.”

“Technology has made it really easy to make records much more quickly these days. There’s nothing wrong with that, and that spontaneity can be exciting,” shares FOB’s Patrick Stump. “But we wanted to get back to the way we used to work. We wanted to make a record that was really lovingly crafted and deliberate and patiently guided – like someone cooked you a delicate meal. I’m not a very proud guy, but I’m pretty proud of this record.” (Patrick Stump)

“Our band has been an ongoing art project for twenty years and we know there have been many inception points along that journey,” says FOB’s Pete Wentz. “We wanted to create an album that merged those points together – something new, but carved from our foundation. Fueled By Ramen and Elektra seemed like the perfect home for this.”

“We’re incredibly excited to welcome back Fall Out Boy to the Fueled By Ramen family. It’s been twenty years since the release of their debut album on Fueled By Ramen, and it’s a true pleasure to be working together again. Growing up in Chicago, I had the privilege of watching Fall Out Boy play DIY venues around the city, eventually growing into the global superstars we know them as today,” says Johnny Minardi, VP of A&R for Fueled By Ramen/Elektra. “They are a truly special band that has altered the landscape of rock music and who continually evolve with each new release. They have made an incredible album and we can’t wait for the world to hear it.”

So Much (For) Stardust is Fall Out Boy’s first new studio album since 2018’s M A N I A, which garnered a GRAMMY nomination for Best Rock Album and marked their third consecutive and fourth overall #1 album.

Fall Out Boy
ist eine im Jahre 2001 gegründete Alternative-Rockband aus Wilmette, einem Vorort von Chicago, Illinois. Die Band besteht aus den Gitarristen Patrick Stump und Joe Trohman, dem Bassisten Pete Wentz und dem Schlagzeuger Andy Hurley.

Mit Pete Wentz als Texter und Patrick Stump als Komponist erreichten Fall Out Boy mit ihrem ersten großen Label-Debütalbum From Under the Cork Tree ersten kommerziellen Erfolg. Das Album wurde im Jahr 2005 veröffentlicht und gewann zahlreiche Auszeichnungen, sowie Doppel-Platin in den Vereinigten Staaten. 2006 hatte die Band ihre erste große Tournee.

Ihr darauffolgendes Album Infinity on High wurde 2007 veröffentlicht und noch erfolgreicher als der Vorgänger. Es debütierte in der ersten Verkaufswoche auf Platz 1 der Billboard 200 mit über 260.000 verkauften Einheiten. Die vorab veröffentlichte Single This Ain't a Scene, It's an Arms Race, debütierte sofort auf Platz 2 der Billboard Hot 100 und stand dort mehrere Wochen. Im Sommer 2007 spielte die Band beim Live Earth-Konzert in New York City und ging danach auf die weltweite Honda Civic Tour.

Am 2. Februar 2010 gab die Band eine „Pause auf unbestimmte Zeit“ bekannt, jedoch ohne ein offizielles Pressestatement. Unterdessen gab Leadsänger Patrick Stump in einem Interview bekannt, dass die Band sich definitiv nicht aufgelöst habe, sondern vielmehr eine Auszeit nimmt während die einzelnen Bandmitglieder an diversen Projekten arbeiten.

Am 4. Februar 2013 gab die Band ihre „Wiedervereinigung“ bekannt und kündigte ein neues Album unter dem Titel Save Rock and Roll für den 15. April an.

This album contains no booklet.
