While Chicago quartet Fall Out Boy are best known for their bombastic fusion of pop and rock music, their rock'n'roll roots are planted firmly in Illinois punk and harcore scene, origins they returned to on their Ryan Adams-produced punk EP, Pax AM Days. Fall Out Boy's principle songwriter and band mouthpiece, Pete Wentz, talks to Sam Wicks about straddling the pop/punk divide.
