Fall Out Boy Announces New Single Doomsday Generation (Slacker for the Ages) Featuring Walter Schreifels of Quicksand

November 13, 2026

Fall Out Boy is rolling out new material. A few days after unveiling “ACES” and announcing its world tour Twilight Of The Punks for 2027, the American band returns with a second unreleased track in a week, “Doomsday Generation (Slacker For The Ages)”, recorded with Walter Schreifels, frontman of Quicksand!

The track was unveiled this Friday, November 13, and was first uncovered by a handful of fans thanks to VHS tapes distributed at Fall Out Boy’s surprise show in a Los Angeles mall on November 10. An operation that fit within the campaign surrounding the band’s return and its new tour.

With Walter Schreifels, a key figure in the New York hardcore scene also known for his stints with Gorilla Biscuits and Rival Schools, Fall Out Boy adds a new collaboration to its ongoing activity. The track preserves the energy and the wordplay that are characteristic of the Chicago-based group.

This release comes at the end of a particularly busy week for Fall Out Boy, between the release of “ACES”, the announcement of the Twilight Of The Punks tour and that surprise show in Los Angeles. In France, the band will notably meet its fans again on June 10, 2027 at the Accor Arena in Paris, with A Day To Remember and Neck Deep in support.

With two new tracks in just a few days and a world tour in the works, Fall Out Boy appears set to open a new chapter. Now the question remains how far the band intends to push this new era, dubbed Twilight Of The Punks.
