Fall Out Boy debuted two new songs in public for the first time: “Love From The Other Side” and “Heartbreak Feels So Good.”

The rockers, whose new album “So Much (For) Stardust” is scheduled for release on March 24, gave a small-scale homecoming performance at Chicago’s Metro club on Wednesday (25.01.23), celebrating the club’s 40th anniversary. They gave fans a career-spanning concert.

The band opened their performance with the lead single “Love From The Other Side” before playing favourites like “Sugar, We’re Going Down,” “Dance,” and “Thanks for the Mrs.”

The song “Calm Before The Storm” from “Take This To Your Grave” was performed for the first time since 2007 as part of their set.

In addition to the group’s earlier release of the music video featuring Weezer vocalist Rivers Cuomo, a brand-new song, titled “Heartbreak Feels So Good,” made its live debut.

They teased: “The heist begins now. And before anyone asks, yes we do all our own stunts.”

For the first time since guitarist Joe Trohman, 38, revealed he is temporarily leaving the band to focus on his mental health, band members Patrick Stump, Pete Wentz, and Andy Hurley took the stage in front of an audience.

In a statement, he said: “Neil Young once howled that it’s better to burn out than to fade away. But I can tell you unequivocally that burning out is dreadful.

“Without divulging all the details, I must disclose that my mental health has rapidly deteriorated over the past several years.

“So, to avoid fading away and never returning, I will be taking a break from work which regrettably includes stepping away from Fall Out Boy for a spell.”

He has vowed to return to the band in the future but insisted it was “necessary” to put his “mental health first”.
