'''Fall Out Boy''' is a pop-emo 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 referring to the sidekick to [[Radioactive Man]], a comic book hero in [[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 (television)|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 magazine|Billboard]]'' charts at #9, selling over 70,000 copies in its first week. Their breakout [[single (music)|single]] "[[Sugar, We're Goin' Down]]," peaked at #8 on the [[Billboard magazine|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 Awards. Their next single was "[[Dance, Dance]]," which also topped [[MTV]]'s [[TRL]] countdown. The video premiered on MTV2 on Oct. 15, 2005.
