    Any one who is ignorant enough to not get the the fact the band grew up and oh well if they might sound slightly familiar grow the fuck up because this bands sound hasnt really changed since evening out... yea they matured a little bit but get over it. overall i though this cd was amazing it was everything i expected and more from this band

    The Best Album Ever Made So Far!....But that might change when Folie A Deux is released.

    This is my favourite album ever. Each song is great in its own way. They haven't "sold out". They have experience and the confidence that their fans give them, so have stepped it up.

    I think Pete Wentz and Patrick Stump might be geniuses, or a genius collectively. This album is amazing from start to finish - the best album this year, so far. I know, I know, we're only a month in, but c'mon. OK, best album since MCR for me. Best tracks: Thriller, This Ain't a Scene, It's an Arms Race, I'm Like a Lawyer With the Way I'm Always Trying To Get I think Pete Wentz and Patrick Stump might be geniuses, or a genius collectively.

Best tracks: Thriller, This Ain't a Scene, It's an Arms Race, I'm Like a Lawyer With the Way I'm Always Trying To Get You Off, Thnks Fr Th Mmrs, and I've Got All This Ringing In My Ears And None On My Fingers (which sounds mostly like it was ripped right out of the seventies). But they're all excellent. It's good to see a band that was so successful (especially financially) willing to adjust their music to what they want to write, rather than write for the mindless masses. I commend them all.… Expand

    This album is great...while on first listen I didn't like it as much as "Cork Tree," upon second and third helpings it has become THE album to listen to at this moment. Although FOB will never match the amazing album that "Take This To Your Grave" was (I doubt any one else will either), "Infinity On High" has become my record of the year.

    The kids who badmouth Fall Out Boy don't really make any sense in their insults. Chances are that they haven't even heard the album, are in middle school, and don't understand music. Here's something sensical: "Infinity on High" is one of the best pop rock albums I've heard.

    this album is amazing and maybe some people should actually listen to it before they rate it. once you listen to it, it will be very hard to talk crap about fall out boy. and they are not shit or at least- the lead singer can actually sing so they have talent.

    Fall Out Boy just seem to get better with every album they release, but with 'Take This To Your Grave' bordering on perfection, there's little room for improvement; just variety. 'Infinity On High' is by far their most varied album, and every song is instantly definable.

    These guys are amazing. This album is genius and is an follow up to cork tree. The whole album is great but Take over...,Thnks fr th mmrs, carpal tunnel..., don't you know..., and Hum hallelujah are all amazing. Athough out of those Thnks fr th mmrs is by far the best so if you only buy one song get that one.

    This is, by far, the best Fall Out Boy album out there! The songs are excellent, both the ones that you hear every day on the raio and the ones on there that you don't hear so often.

    Fall Out Boy are more talented than most pop/punk/emo acts out there today. To give them a lot of credit is shakey at this point, but Infinity On High proves that hooks and hard rock can coincide peacefully and with great appeal. The Jay-Z cameo on the opening "Thriller" is just a riot. Infinity trumps the band's previous From Under The Cork Tree by far.

    For a band that was once so self-assured and able to utilize its talents so compellingly, the album is regrettably haphazard.

    Some of the band's most gut-wrenching and powerful melodies to date. [Mar 2007, p.133]

    Lo and behold, it turns out these pasty emo boys are a pretty great blue-eyed soul band.
