Fall Out Boy’s debut album, Take This to Your Grave, garnered endless accolades and commercial success. From Under the Cork Tree, their second album, propelled the band into the upper reaches of the sales stratosphere, boasting some of the wittiest (and longest) song titles on a rock album. The band’s driving pop-punk rhythms and clever, knowing lyrics about love, the music industry, and modern life in general have set them on an upward spiral to triumph and veneration.
On The String Quartet Tribute to Fall Out Boy, their powerful music is transformed by some of the best string players in the business. Gliding bows on violin, viola, and cello strings replace the manic guitars, throbbing bass, and pounding drums. Songs like “Sugar, We’re Going Down,” “Sophomore Slump or Comeback of the Year,” and “Dance, Dance” take on a strange, new life while matching the originals in energy and emotion. Buy this album and you will discover another facet to Fall Out Boy’s intense songwriting.
