Fall Out Boy confirmed that its new single 'ACES' will be released on Monday, November 9, at 10:30am PST, ending a three-year wait for new material. The announcement followed a 20-second teaser posted on the band's social channels.

Why it matters

The release marks the band's first new music since 'So Much (for) Stardust' in 2023, offering fans a clear signal of the group's next chapter. Whether 'ACES' is a standalone single or the start of a larger campaign should become clearer when the associated box office opens.

The release follows 'So Much (for) Stardust' (2023), produced by Neal Avron, and ends a roughly three-year gap in new material. The band has not yet confirmed reported 2027 tour dates, so the commercial scope of the new single remains unclear.

The players

Fall Out Boy

A Chicago-formed American rock band known for hits such as 'Sugar, We're Goin Down' and 'Centuries,' which has built a long career blending pop-punk and alternative rock.

Neal Avron

An American record producer who previously worked with Fall Out Boy on 'So Much (for) Stardust' and is known for his work with several rock and pop acts.

The details

Fans first saw a 20-second teaser for 'ACES' on the band's social channels this week. The band's website was overhauled into a directory for a fictional 'Twilight Town Mall,' while fans queued at a live-cam claw machine on November 4 and 5 to win an alien plushie, and mystery packages containing 'Twilight of the Punks' T-shirts arrived at doorsteps.

Industry Dynamics

The release follows the band's 2023 album 'So Much (for) Stardust,' which was produced by Neal Avron and marked its last full-length studio effort. The rollout uses an interactive, fictional-mall campaign rather than a conventional single announcement.

Listeners can stream 'ACES' starting November 9, 2026, at 10:30am PST, with the release accompanied by the Twilight Town Mall Box Office on the band's site. Fans seeking tour tickets should wait for confirmation, since the reported 2027 Chicago dates have not been announced by the band.

The takeaway

Fans who want to hear the single on release day should plan around the 10:30am PST drop time. Keep an eye on the band's official channels for confirmation of any tour dates before making travel plans.

What happens next

'ACES' is scheduled for release on Monday, November 9, 2026, at 10:30am PST, and the Twilight Town Mall Box Office opens the same day.
