Fall Out Boy talks about "Infinity on High"

Fall Out Boy recently spoke to Billboard about their new album, Infinity on High. The record is the follow up to their multi-platinum major label debut, From Under The Cork Tree.

Guitarist Patrick Stump explained:

From song to song there's a completely different feel, but they all make sense in context. They've got a few common points, but overall there's a lot of different voices and perspectives and styles. It would be dishonest for us to hold back any of these elements.

Stump described the album's first single "This Ain't a Scene, It's an Arms Race" as "a hip-hop/R&B song, but written as a punk song.." Beyond that, he mentions a "borderline classic rock" as well as a greater use of piano, as well as strings and horns, though he claims that "we were really restrained about it. " Guests confirmed so far include hip hop producer Jay-Z, Panic! At the Disco's Ryan Ross and New Found Glory's Chad Gilbert.

The record is due out on February 6th, 2007.
