We confess that we laughed a bit when Pete Wentz explains he met RM from k-pop group BTS in a arcade during his nine-year-old son's birthday party. 

Fall Out Boy also discuss Gaten's “Sugar, We're Going Down” cover. “It's kind of devastating that he's that talented on everything,” Wentz says.

“I think he sang it better than I did when I recorded it,” Patrick Stump adds.

Here's the full interview:

M A  N  I  A drops this Friday, Jan. 19. When talking about album for issue 347, Stump says this album is different than anything they’ve done before.

“This [record] is the most off-script we’ve gone,” the singer tells AP. “I want to try to invent something, because life’s too short.”
