Fall Out Boy's new album, Folie a Deux, is currently scheduled to go on sale on election day in America, Tuesday, November 4th. The band is now having serious doubts about the 'cutesy' election day tie-in and hope that their label changes the release date. This is pretty cool, we are feelin' Fall Out Boy on this one, good decision.

We felt as though rather than making a commentary we were only riding the wave of the election. This seemed less and less like what we intended to do and more of a gimmick. It is now in the hands of our label to give us a new release date… it is our intent to get our record out this year and as soon as possible — as we made sure to have it done in time for its original release."
The elections are a serious matter! According to Pete Wentz, a member of the band, the new date for their upcoming album is now December 16th!
