Fall Out Boy have finally revealed what they’ve been mysteriously teasing all bloody week – a new song, called ‘Young and Menace’. Available now via all the usual digital outlets, the band have also released a new video for it.
It’s the first taste of new music from the band’s forthcoming seventh studio album ‘M A N I A’, due out on 15th September via Virgin EMI UK/DCD2 Records. Pre-order your copy here.
“There’s a lyric in the song, ‘trying to send the world a message, I was young and a menace,’ that reminded me of growing up in the suburbs of Chicago,” Pete Wentz explains. “I didn’t look like anyone there or feel like anyone – I felt like an outsider in my own town.
“It wasn’t until I discovered punk rock and that community that I realized I did fit in somewhere in this word – with the other people who didn’t fit in. It’s hard to rationalize rage – it’s hard to quantify anxiety… this song does neither. It embraces the wave of those emotions.”
