Music - Patrick Stump of Fall Out Boy - Frontman in the Background - NYTimes.com
december 2008 by bradbarrish
He speaks knowledgeably about jazz fusion, early blues, underground hip-hop and hardcore punk. He likens the task of songwriting to Robert McKee’s rules for screenwriting. He argues, not altogether unconvincingly, for the influence of John Cage on Fall Out Boy’s music. When talking about how to deliver Mr. Wentz’s lyrics in the most effective fashion, he invokes David Mamet.
