Pete Wentz starts new electro-pop band ‘Black Cards’.

The final nail has now been hammered into the Fall Out Boy coffin, as it now looks like Pete Wentz has gone and started his own band.

Ashlee Simpson’s baby daddy broke the news on his official Tumblr blog, writing:

there will be no treasure hunt. not viral campaign.

just the opposite- next week things will appear on this site in a very controlled distribution.

if you enjoy it, keep coming back. if its not for you than we understand.

He then provided a link to a website called www.bl4ckc4rds.com, which subsequently contains links to a Black Cards Facebook page, Twitter and MySpace.

Pete has also released a snippet of a new Black Cards song called “Club Called Heaven”. It’s kind of like folky, electro-pop, and it’s not particularly very good. There’s some vocals from a female singer on the track, but unfortunately, I don’t think that it’s Ashlee Simpson.

I’ll keep you posted on the band and let you know when they release an official single. Until then, feel free to join me in a candlelight vigil as we pray for Ashlee to release another album.

    I’ve really never liked him much. dont find him cute at all, or all that talented really. i mean he is ok and all but his own band…not seeing it.

    Lots Of Love,

    It sounds like Ashlee at the start, but then when the autotune goes it doesnt.

  • Isra

    that sounds a lot like Ashlee to me

  • Prince

    I like it. It doesn’t sound like electro pop to me more like jazzy pop like Camro Emerald

  • Andres

    sounds good I like it, I think him and patrick will have same kind of sucess like Travis McCoy putting albums in top 20 but hardly in top 10.

    the girls sounds kind of like ashlee..we will see if is her.

  • man

    it is ashlee… im a big fan its her

    i’ll be checking for patrick stump, now that’s talent..forget about pete wentz, fall out boy came to be one of my favorite bands, but they blew it..well, all there is left is patrick now. Shame, considering their music was amazing, i always listen to ‘from under the cork tree’, that was perfect from beginning to end

    Can I just say that Ashlee’s last album was AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!! Best song RAGDOLL!!! Even though Rule Breaker was it too.

  • TJ

    Oh gee, I hope Ashlee’s not gonna try to be in band to re-launch her career, cuz I just want HER and only HER!!!! I don’t think it’s her on this track so that’s good.

    Song ain’t THAT bad tho, and it’s an interesting kind of “Tim Burton moive” sound.
    These guys have caught my attention……
