Fall Out Boy have admitted that they still feel like "underdogs" in the music industry.
Patrick Stump, Pete Wentz, Joe Trohman and Andy Hurley make up the band and are currently battling Mark Ronson's 'Uptown Special' for the UK number one album spot with their new release 'American Beauty/American Psycho', but Pete admits there was a time the group didn't think they'd ever perform with one another again.
Speaking to The Sun, he explained: "It means a great deal to us.
"There was a point when I thought we'd never play or make music again. Then we re-emerged and it's cool we have a place in music again."
Patrick added: "But we still feel like underdogs, even after all this time, and that will never change. Every time we achieve something there is a new peak and valley scenario. And whatever point we are at we are always the least likely people to be in that situation."
Also revealing that in the early years of their career they were worried about not conforming to the ideas of specific genres, they now are only interested in doing what works for them.
"When you are younger, you are scared of how people react. Now we know who we are ... Now we have the reward of doing something we are excited about, rather than operating in fear. We are just not scared anymore. You just have to be who you are."
