10 Most Underrated Fall Out Boy Songs
10. Young Volcanoes
Fans rejoiced in early 2013 when the band they once loved were returning with an all-new album mere months later.
Produced by music legend Butch Walker, Save Rock and Roll saw Fall Out Boy lean further into pop than ever before, ditching the fringe and nail polish in the process of creating an album that stands the test of time, despite what some disgruntled fans might think.
For as good as the offering is, it takes the majority of the release to arrive at the best track of all, with Young Volcanoes being amongst the final few songs on the album. Released as the fourth and final single, Young Volcanoes is simply delightful, as a surprisingly uplifting acoustic riff replaces any whinging electric guitars throughout.
Lyrically, it isn't poignant or thought provoking, but does well to evoke a sense of youthfulness that no other Fall Out Boy song really replicates. It feels innocent, lively and communal, as the chorus is always accompanied by backing vocals that give the tune much needed complexity.
Young Volcanoes failed to break the UK Top 40, only scratching the low 60's on the official charts. It's perhaps expected considering the goliath pop artists who commandeered the music industry at the time, but disappointing nonetheless.
