Fall Out Boy - Infinity On High (CD)

"If you have the songs there, why not record them?" says Wentz. The group's prolific nature can best be summed by Stump, who enthusiastically proclaimed, "f*ck down time," when asked if he'd like a break from the busy schedule. The title of Infinity on High comes from a letter written by Vincent van Gogh to his brother in 1888. In the letter, Van Gogh describes the energy instilled in his work due to his new bill of health. Specifically, the line, "Be clearly aware of the stars and infinity on high. Then life seems almost enchanted after all."
