Musical style

While widely considered to be a pop punk band, Fall Out Boy also cites emo group The Get Up Kids as an influence. Pete Wentz was interviewed for a retrospective article in Alternative Press when The Get Up Kids disbanded in 2005, and stated that "Fall Out Boy would not be a band if it were not for the Get Up Kids."^[31] Fall Out Boy's main songwriters are Patrick Stump (melody) and Pete Wentz (lyrics), though they traditionally credit the whole band as songwriters. Their albums Take This To Your Grave and From Under The Cork Tree are both said to have pop punk as well as punk rock sounds and influences,^[32][33] and their latest work, Infinity On High, features a wide range of styles and instrumentation, including orchestral and choral arrangements ("Thnks fr th Mmrs", "You're Crashing, But You're No Wave") and a slower piano ballad ("Golden"). The band has shown signs of experimentation, working with hip hop producers and artists, including Timbaland, Lil Wayne and Kanye West, and have also been influenced by R&B music.^{[citation needed]} In general, the group has direct ties to melodic pop music, with Patrick Stump becoming a producer aside from his work with the band, and they also are closely connected to hardcore punk, as evident in their use of throat vocals and their prior involvement in the underground Chicago music scene.^[7] Moreover, a central part of Fall Out Boy's sound is rooted in the band's lyrics, mainly penned by bassist Pete Wentz, who commonly uses irony and other literary devices to narrate personal experience and stories.^[33] Pop punk is used for two separate subgenres of punk rock music: the kind typically found on Lookout!
