fallout boy came out in an era where any dip shit with a guitar and a myspace could get famous. they edit their music so much that you can hardly recognize the real thing vs. the CD. Jerry Only and the rest of the Misfits had to work hard and use their own talent to obtain their fanbase. Thats why their fanbase has been alot of the same people and generations of families passing down their music vs. a bunch of emo kids whining about how awful it is living in beverly hills while there are people starving in the world.
Case in point, 20 years from now people are still going to know who the Misfits and other classical bands are, FalloutBoy will be a one hit wonder.
