History. 20. 01–2. Early years. Fall Out Boy was formed in 2. Chicago suburb of Wilmette, Illinois by friends Pete Wentz and Joe Trohman.
Wentz was a "visible fixture" of the relatively small Chicago hardcore punk scene of the late 1. Birthright, Extinction and First Born, as well the metalcore band Arma Angelus and the more political Racetraitor, "a band that managed to land the covers of Maximumrocknroll and Heartattack fanzines before releasing a single note of music."[1] Wentz was growing dissatisfied with the changing mores of the community, which he viewed as a transition from political activism to an emphasis on moshing and breakdowns.[1] With enthusiasm in Arma Angelus waning, he created a pop punk side project with Trohman as an "easy and escapist" project.[1] Trohman met Patrick Stump, then a drummer for grindcore band Xgrinding process. X[2] and a host of other bands that "never really managed," at a Borders bookstore in Wilmette.[3] While discussing Neurosis with a friend, Stump interrupted the conversation to correct their classification of the band in a conversation that soon shifted to the new band.[3] Stump, viewing it as an opportunity to try out with "local hardcore celebrity" Wentz, directed Trohman to his MP3.
Stump intended to try out as a drummer, but Trohman urged him to bring out his acoustic guitar; he impressed the duo with songs from Saves the Day's Through Being Cool. While Wentz wanted Racetraitor bandmate Andy Hurley in the group as drummer, Hurley appeared uninterested and too busy.[3]The band's first public performance came in a cafeteria at De. Paul University alongside Stilwell and another group that performed Black Sabbath in its entirety.[4] The band's only performance with guitarist John Flamandan and original drummer Ben Rose was in retrospect described as "goofy" and "bad," but Trohman made an active effort to make the band work, picking up members for practice.[4] Wentz and Stump argued over band names; the former favored verbose, tongue- in- cheek names while the latter desired to reference Tom Waits in name.[4] After creating a short list of names that included "Fall Out Boy," a fictional character from The Simpsons and Bongo Comics, friends voted on the name. The band's second performance, at a southern Illinois university with The Killing Tree, began with Wentz introducing the band under a name Stump recalled as "very long."[4] According to Stump, an audience member yelled out, "Fuck that, no, you're Fall Out Boy!," and the band were credited later in the show under that name by Killing Tree frontman Tim Mc.
Ilrath. As the group looked up to Mc. Ilrath, and Trohman and Stump were "die- hard" Simpsons fans, the name stuck.[4][5] The group's first cassette tape demo was recorded in Rose's basement, but the band later set off for Wisconsin to record a proper demo with 7 Angels 7 Plagues drummer Jared Logan, whom Wentz knew through connections in the hardcore scene.[4]Several more members passed through the group, including drummer Mike Pareskuwicz of Subsist and guitarist T. J. "Racine" Kunasch.[4] While Stump at this point felt uninterested in the group, Wentz was, according to Uprising Records owner Sean Muttaqi, viewing the group as "the thing that would make him famous. He had a clear vision."[4] Wentz was "singularly focused on taking things to the next level," and threw the band into promotion via early social media.
Muttaqi got word of the demo and wanted to release half of it as a split extended play with Hurley's band Project Rocket, which the band viewed as competition.[4] Uprising desired to release an album with the emerging band, which to that point had only written three songs. With the help of Logan, the group attempted to put together a collection of songs in two days, and recorded them as Fall Out Boy's Evening Out with Your Girlfriend. The rushed recording experience and underdeveloped songs left the band discontent.[4] When the band set off to Smart Studios in Madison, Wisconsin to record three songs for a possible split 7- inch with 5. Plan, engineer Sean O'Keefe suggested the band record the trio with Hurley.[6] Hurley was also recording an EP with his new group the Kill Pill in Chicago the same day, but raced to Madison to lay down drums for Fall Out Boy.
It was still a fill- in thing but when Andy sat in, it just felt different. It was one of those "a- ha" moments," recalled Wentz.[6]2. Early success and Take This to Your Grave. The band booked a two- week tour with Spitalfield, but Pareskuwicz was unable to get time off from work and Kunasch was kicked out of the band as the group "had all gotten sick of him."[6] Kunasch was temporarily replaced by friend Brandon Hamm on guitar, alongside drummer Chris Envy from the recently disbanded Showoff, but both quit prior to the kickoff of the tour.[6] The band invited Hurley instead to fill- in once more, while Stump borrowed one of Trohman's guitars for the trek.
While most shows were cancelled, the band played any show possible: "Let's just get on whatever show we can. You can pay us in pizza," remembered Wentz.[6] As the tour concluded, the general consensus was that Hurley would be the band's new drummer, and the band began to shop around the three songs from the group's unreleased split as a demo to record labels. The band members set their sights on pop punk labels, and attempted with considerable effort to join Drive- Thru Records.[7] A showcase for label co- founders went largely mediocre, and the band were offered to sign to side label Rushmore, an offer that the members of the band declined. They got particularly far in discussions with The Militia Group and Victory Records, and Bob Mc. Lynn of Crush Management became the band's first manager.[8] The band re- entered the studio with O'Keefe to record several more tracks to create label interest.
