Panic at the Disco. Excerpt: Fall Out Boy is an American rock band from Wilmette, Illinois, formed in 2001. The Grammy-nominated band consists of vocalist, guitarist and composer Patrick Stump, bassist and lyricist Pete Wentz, guitarist Joe Trohman, and drummer Andy Hurley. The band released five studio albums from 2003¿2008. They announced an indefinite hiatus in late 2009. They have not broken up, rather they are taking a rest and the members are engaging in various side projects. Fall Out Boy was ranked the 93rd Best Artist of the 2000¿10 decade by Billboard. With Pete Wentz as the band's primary lyricist and Patrick Stump as the primary composer, Fall Out Boy reached mainstream success with its major label debut, From Under the Cork Tree. Released in 2005, the album won several awards and achieved double platinum status after selling more than 2.5 million albums in the United States alone. It spawned the lead single Sugar, We're Goin Down which reached #8 on the Billboard Hot 100 and went on to sell two million copies in the US. To support the album, the band headlined tours around the world in 2005 and 2006. In 2007, the band released the followup Infinity on High to major chart success, reaching #1 on the Billboard 200 and selling 260,000 copies its first week. The lead single, This Ain't a Scene, It's an Arms Race, reached #1 on the Billboard Pop 100 and #2 on the Billboard Hot 100. On February 2, 2010, the band reportedly broke up although no official press statement was released. Since then, Patrick Stump, in a recent interview, explained that Fall Out Boy never broke up and are simply on a break while the members work on other projects. In an interview with Chicago Sun-Times, he said Fall Out Boy is just not planning anything right now. I would be very, very surprised if we don¿t do another record again¿, hinting that Fall Out Boy may make more music in the future. The band's highest charting single is This Ain't a Scene, It's an Arms Race, from the platinum album Infinity on
