Fall Out Boy - Irresistible
Teasing another cut from their fast-approaching sixth album, Fall Out Boy’s ‘Irresistible’ lives up to its name.
Fall Out Boy are back. ‘Centuries’ announced it, the title track to their upcoming sixth album ‘American Beauty/American Psycho’ underlined it and ‘The Kid’s Aren’t Alright’ angrily scribbled around the news. And, just in case the message wasn’t quite obvious enough, they’ve released this latest new preview, ‘Irresistible’.
Opening with a brass procession that flanks a hurried soliloquy of intent, ‘Irresistible’s scene is set by a marriage of expected celebration and nervous intrusion. It’s the return of the king, but what is he wearing? The minimalistic instrumentals and big, brash beats sit tight to the thumping vocal storm before dropping away and letting that stadium refrain soar.
In a recent interview, Patrick Stump said “We’re the last rock band that doesn’t think that pop is a four letter word.” And, surrounded by glittering pop and an air of menace, he whispers an ‘Irresistible’ promise that’ll shape 2015. “I’m coming for you and I’m making war.”
