i've been listening to the new record from fall out boy titled infinity on high. (i managed to find a sneak peak leak) and boy oh boy do i want to hate it. i found myself listening, tapping my foot, and bobbing my head but then when i realized i was doing it--i was enjoying myself--i snapped myself out of it.
'you can't enjoy this.'
after reading the "in depth" interview of the boys in this months Alternative Press it was completely evident; they DO NOT deserve their fame. in fact, i wanted to punch pete wentz in his overly exposed, shamefully mediocre penis until he cried for his mommy. but then again when you have women going on shopping sprees and then begging people online to pay her bills--and succeeding--i can't blame pete wentz for leaking pictures of his 'bits and bobs' for a little bit (pun intended) of exposure. i guess both in their own way are genius.
the album is different (and slightly christian???) and not always should an album being different equal goodness but i have to say i feel like it's enough of a stretch for the boys without being too far from who/what they claim they are. it's basically maroon 5 meets FOB. and with a menagerie of choir chanting and strong plucking guitar style...you can't deny it's catchy. you can't deny that it sounds good. and while i wanted to hate it... i don't hate it. i actually like the album and yet i hate that i like it. oh well. so much for taste huh? at least i can laugh at my own bad taste.
