Fall Out Boy is a four-piece Pop-Punk band from the suburbs of Chicago, that formed in 2001. While still unnamed, the band asked the audience at a show what their band should be called, and an audience member yelled out "Fall Out Boy," presumably from the superhero Radioactive Man's sidekick, Fallout Boy, on the TV show The Simpsons.
The band started to achieve notable success with 2003's Take This to Your Grave (Fueled By Ramen), with singles such as "Grand Theft Autumn (Where Is Your Boy?)" and "Saturday," receiving airplay on Fuse and MTVU. The band signed to Island Records in 2003, and on May 3, 2005, released their major label debut From Under The Cork Tree (Island), which debuted on the Billboard charts at #9, selling over 70,000 copies in its first week. Their breakout single "Sugar, We're Goin' Down," peaked at #8 on the Billboard "Hot 100" charts, and reached #1 on MTV's TRL, where the video was retired. The video also won the MTV2 award at the 2005 MTV Video Music Award. Their next single was "Dance, Dance." The band has been nominated for "Best New Artist" at the 2006 Grammy Awards.
