I think you can totally be a totally normal kid from the suburbs of Chicago and go off and play shows. It's one of those things that when you go home, you're still the nerd you were when you left, and your parents still get to yell at you about cleaning up your room, and your girlfriend still drags you to the pet store.

Quiet is the new loud.
- Nerd
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I used to work in a record store. I'm kind of a record nerd.
- Boy
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Whatever notoriety Fall Out Boy used to have prevents me from having the ability to start over from the bottom again.
- Being
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Touring on 'Folie' was like being the last act at the vaudeville show: We were rotten vegetable targets in clandestine hoods.
- Money

- Nov 07, 2020
There's no amount of money that makes you feel better when people think of you as a joke or a hack or a failure or ugly or stupid or morally empty.

The song that's affected me the most profoundly is probably Michael Jackson's 'Thriller,' or, more specifically, the couple seconds of instrumental break before Vincent Price starts 'rapping.'
- Laugh
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Written by the ancient Chinese philosopher of the same name, the 'Zhuangzi' is one long perplexing puzzle of a rambling collection of enigmatic short stories. It's a strange feeling to laugh at a joke written by someone in the 4th century B.C.
- Choice
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Between Prince and my dad's fusion-jazz records, I didn't have a choice in being funky.
- History
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
'As Long As I Know I'm Getting Paid' is a satire. Lyrically, I want to be direct. With my history in Fall Out Boy, there's some expectation that I'm going to be lyrically obtuse. But that song is a straight-faced satire of consumerism.
- People
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
There's no first impressions anymore. You go to a job interview, and they'll probably Google you. It's a shame - people should play it a little closer to the chest as far as what information they release to the world. If I'm angry about something, I'm not going to take to my Twitter.
- Direction
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I was going to record a solo album when I was 15 on a four-track. I started working on it, but then Fall Out Boy happened. The band was awesome and took me in a totally different direction. I don't regret it at all, but the band delayed the record I had been planning.
- Dress
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
All of the agreed-upon pariahs throughout pop-culture history put their identities into the thing we decry. And yet we derive our own identities from the act of hating. We connect on the things we are disappointed in. Some may argue that nothing in history gathers a crowd like complaining about Lady Gaga's meat dress.
- Busy
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
We're so busy broadcasting our latest cultural disdain that we scantly notice anything we enjoy. 'Oh man, this Rebecca Black kid is terrible! Let's laugh at her!' has become more culturally relevant than, 'I really love this new Bilal record.'
- Music
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Good music is good music, regardless of where it comes from. I think that's a really important thing to carry with you.
- High Art
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
When you're a little kid, you just like music that makes you happy and is fun. As you get older, you reach college or your 20s and you decide that music should be challenging and all art should be smart. So you start to think it makes you like high art more to put down things you consider low art. I don't even think things are low art.
- Fall
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
One of the things that always was Fall Out Boy was trying new things and kind of pushing ourselves in different directions.
- Fall
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
In Fall Out Boy, I noticed that I wasn't putting all that much soul into it. It was just kind of screaming, I guess. I was just dying to get out of there!
- Boy
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
In Fall Out Boy, we were all playing with our pop punk influences, so that was always within that kind of framework.
- Little Things
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I lost about 60 pounds. I don't really have a moment specifically that made me do it. I remember little things, like, when I was in Japan, I remember looking around at the portion sizes of a fast food restaurant and being like, 'Well, this has something to do with it.' Americans definitely eat too much.
- Bread
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I never really ate that bad, I just ate too much. It wasn't like I had to switch to whole wheat bread or something like that. I really just had to eat less of what I was eating, and I had to exercise more.
- Hate
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Yoko Ono never deserved any of the hate she got. Paul McCartney and John Lennon weren't getting along.
- Bowie
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Everyone wants to pretend like they sprang out of the ground with an Animal Collective record in their hands and a David Bowie haircut, and that's just not the case. You discover these things gradually.
- Lyrically
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Lyrically, I personally lean towards venting.
- Fall
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I wasn't necessarily frustrated in Fall Out Boy, but there were things that didn't get satisfied, desires left wanting. We didn't all meet on the same kind of music. When bands break up, there are all these buzz words that get tossed around to maintain a front for the audience, but in this case there literally were creative differences.
- Me
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I am genuinely into soul, R&B and hip hop - all these genres that get slapped under the 'soul' genre. That spoke to me more than it did to my punk-rock friends. And punk spoke more to me than it did to my soul friends. I basically didn't fit comfortably in either world.
- Love
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Drums were my first instrument, my first love. I need rhythm, something that moves.
- Gym
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Gym Class is a band I am more directly involved with than any other band except for Fall Out Boy.
- More
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
When you make art, you get really invested in it. When art happens by accident and you were just along for the ride? It's way more fun.
- Fear
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
There's a certain fear of simplicity. I think that's the thing, when you're younger as an artist, you get this idea in your head that complexity equals quality. The more notes you're playing, the better.
- Nothing
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I think when you're 17 and you're angry, you're angry about very short-term things. And there's nothing wrong about writing that record. It's a very real record to write; it's the realest record I could write when I was 17. The problem is, when you're 28, it's not the same thing; it can be a put-on.
- Better
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I write really scathing, angry stuff when I'm in a better mood, and then uplifting and happy stuff when I'm at the absolute bottom.
