Fall Out Boy: "Independent success
After the release of their mini-album, Andy Hurley, formerly of Racetraitor, joined the band and Stump picked up guitar, while Raccine and Logan left. During this time, they played many local shows at the The Knights of Columbus Hall in Arlington Heights, Illinois, the site of their first video: Dead On Arrival. The same year, after signing to Fueled by Ramen, they released their first full-length album, Take This to Your Grave, on May 6, 2003. The band received an advance from Island Records to record their proper debut, but the advance came with a right of first refusal for Island on Fall Out Boy's next album. With major financing in place, the recording of Take This to Your Grave took place at the Butch Vig owned Smart Studios in Madison, Wisconsin, with Sean O'Keefe producing.
With singles 'Grand Theft Autumn / Where Is Your Boy' and 'Saturday' receiving video airplay on FUSE and mtvU and radio airplay on mainstream stations across the country, the album sold very well and eventually achieved Gold status, but only after the success of their next album, From Under the Cork Tree.
In mid-2003, the band signed with Island Records which is a part of the mainstream label The Island Def Jam Music Group, along with Def Jam Records. This was after they picked up"

Fall Out Boy:
Early years
Fall Out Boy was formed in early 2001 by friends Joe Trohman and Pete Wentz. The two had played in various bands in the Chicago area. They decided they wanted to start a band that was more similar to bands they listened to growing up such as Green Day, Descendents, and The Smiths. Trohman met high schooler Patrick Stump in a Borders Bookstore. Trohman introduced himself to Stump when he overheard him talking about the band Neurosis, in which they shared a mutual interest. Stump auditioned as a drummer, but as soon as his vocal range was discovered, he became the lead singer. Two other Chicago musicians were recruited; T.J. Raccine on guitar and a drummer simply credited as Mike. The following year, the band debuted with a self-released demo and followed it up with the May 28, 2002 release of Split EP, which featured Project Rocket, on Uprising Records. The group released a mini-LP, Fall Out Boy's Evening Out with Your Girlfriend, on Uprising Records, in 2003.
The band was nameless for their first two shows. At the end of their second show, they asked the audience to yell out their ideas for a name. One audience member suggested 'Fallout Boy,' a reference to the sidekick of the Simpsons cartoon character Radioactive Man.
