Fall Out Toy

Finally, a Stereogum-relevant revelation from the weekend's Comic-Con. MTVNews reports that toymaker SOTA unveiled a line of vinyl Fall Out Boy figurines! This puts the band among a motley crew of music action figures: KISS, The Beatles, Metallica, Jimi Hendrix, Elvis Presley, Biggie Smalls, Johnny Cash, Jerry Garcia, Jim Morrison, Led Zeppelin, Guns N' Roses, Ozzy Osbourne, Insane Clown Posse, Kurt Cobain, and My Chemical Romance (tiny eyeliner sold separately).

$12 each at Hot Topic this fall.

Please someone make a Brandon Flowers be@rbrick! Then we can act out the most awesome emo/pop doll deathmatch and put it on YouTube.

scott, you should make a line of action figures of not the obvious choice sufjan, but even more arbitrary acts like Doveman

Stereogum's super duper obscure indie dolls

sounds good no?

Are these hard plastic or are they squishy enough to put pins in? Because if they can work as voodoo dolls, I'd consider buying a set.

i hate to stick up for fall out boy, but "music times" not only is that joke a couple months too late, its incorrect. the cock shots were the bass player, who doesn't at all.

Rachel just admitted in public that she pays enough attention to Matchbox 20 as to be able to recognize their bassist.

I love how the bass player has more animation and character in his face than the whole world of emo has in it's repetoire.

Band To Watch: Hospital Ships

As we pass saturation point for press coverage of Montreal, Portland, Brooklyn and et cetera, it seems Lawrence, Kansas is poised for its coming turn in the music media trend piece carousel. At least from what we're hearing; this marks...

Quit Your Day Job: Ungdomskulen

The Bergen trio Ungdomskulen play proggy post punk, mixing chops and hooks with a sense of humor. But they don't sound like Primus. When I was in Norway a couple years ago, "Ungdomskulen" seemed to be on everybody's lips (or...

Premature Evaluation: Beck - Modern Guilt

It's been some time since we learned Modern Guilt, Beck Hansen's eighth album, would be some sort of psych rock minimalist '60s trip with Danger Mouse. Since then, we've gotten a look at the old-school jazz/Blue Note-style cover art and...
