CitizensFOB Mixtape: Welcome to the New Administration was a promotional mixtape, released on Aug. 18, 2008, for the Welcome to the New Administration campaign to promote Fall Out Boy’s fourth studio album Folie à Deux.
The mixtape was put together with the help of American DJ Clinton Sparks, and featured multiple snippets of songs from various Decaydance-signed artists, including Cobra Starship, The Academy Is…, Gym Class Heroes, The Cab, Panic! At The Disco, and The Hush Sound.
Welcome To The New Administration was one of two viral promotional campaigns for the release of Fall Out Boy’s fourth studio album Folie à Deux, with the other being the Fresh Only Bakery campaign.
Welcome To The New Administration used various tactics to draw attention to the band, including a fake hacking of the Decaydance records page, the creation of the Citizens For Our Betterment website, and the CitizensFOB mixtape.
