Well obviously.

Why are you presenting this as a binary? For a lot of people it doesn't even enter into the equation.

Also for fucking real I have to put up with everyone giving me shit about Paramore (who are fuckin awesome and full of exuberant energy and killer guitar hooks and interesting tone and clever lyrics and aren't overproduced and just slay, they are goddamn killer across the board) and after a page Kieffer's thread about Fall Out Boy isn't about that band anymore? You can all blow me.

Professor Snuggles:
Johnny I like Paramore too! I think it is mostly just that no one on this board gives a fuck about my opinions at all at any point anyway.

Haha sure it doesn't

Ballard:
Kieffer, when you wouldn't shut up about Gucci Mane and some other garbage southern rap, I thought you were wack.

But here you're absolutely right. Fall Out Boy is a band that writes catchy pop punk tunes. I used to consider catchy pop punk a guilty pleasure but I don't give a shit to bother anymore. Shit is great and I could care less how much money Pete Wentz receives from Axe Body Spray or Honda product placement at the end of the month. Same with Paramore.

If you want a different perspective on Panic! at the Disco, watch the episode of Live at Abbey Road that features them and you'll see that they're just a decent indie pop band who are plagued with shitty fans and whose producers cater to those shitty fans by making their records sound unbearably emo. Stripped down and well-produced, they're just catchy pop.

The frontman says some relatively intelligent stuff in the intro montage that you wouldn't expect from a guy in his position.
