American rock band Fall Out Boy, consisting of Patrick Stump (vocals/rhythm guitar), Joe Trohman (lead guitar), Pete Wentz (bass) and Andy Hurley (drums), dropped a new music video for “So Much (For) Stardust” on February 29, 2024.
The video was directed by Brendan Walter, starring the NBA star player Jimmy Butler of the Miami Heat.
On the clip, Jimmy Butler takes on the role of an emo cowboy, and reclaimed the straightened hairdo he sported on Miami Heat's 2023 press day.
The song is featured on their eighth studio album of the same name, which was released in March 2023.
It was written by Andrew Hurleym Joe Trohman, Patrick Stump, and Pete Wentz. Produced by Neal Avron.
The band said of the album last year, “‘Time is luck.’ Finish another tour. You reflect but not like a gem in the sun - more like a year long stare into yourself in another airplane bathroom, Sometimes you gotta blow everything you were and put the pieces back together in a new shape. The same but different - the foundation dynamited and the dust used to create the concrete pour. I have a tendency to get a little sad whenever I think about anything...but I also feel pure joy when I think that I exist at the same time as whales or that read happens to rise at a certain temperature. And that we happen to be spinning on this little blue rock at the exact same time together. So much (for) stardust.”- Also, Jimmy Butler, who appeared as a cowboy in the video, plans to release his debut country album.
He told Rolling Stone about the album, “I don’t want to tell anyone who I’ve been writing with because then it’ll ruin the surprise. Now, I’m in the lab writing and producing country music. We got some real artists and songwriters. We probably got around 45 tracks right now, and I hope to go write some more. Maybe a week before training camp I’ll get down and do some. There’s definitely going to be an album. That’s the goal. I just don’t know when. The date I want to do it always gets pushed back because this other job that I have, playing basketball, kind of overshadows everything. [Laughs] And maybe some of the songs will be down the line for my second or third album. I can’t wait to get it to the people.” - source : Apple Music
