Fall Out Boy releases a vinyl record destined to be big with collectors for a weird reason

May 3, 2023 Alan Cross 0 Comments

If you’re the kind of person who trolls Discogs.com for rare and interesting releases, expect to see this new piece of vinyl from Fall Out Boy in the future.

They’ve unveiled a special limited edition version of their album, So Much (for) Stardust that they called “Crynyl” (vinyl-crynyl, geddit?) Limited to just 50 copies, each contains “real tears for maximum emotional fidelity.”

Yup. Actual emo tears from every member of the band. Kinda like when KISS put drops of their blood into the ink for a comic book back in the 70s.

Everything is long sold out (the original price was US$99) but the band says they’ll be giving some away in the near future.
