[http://fueledbyramen.com/press/fueledbyramen/fueledbyramen.bio.pdf Official Fueled By Ramen Biography] In 1998, Fueled By Ramen released a self-titled EP fromJimmy Eat World , a five-song collection that proved a breakthrough for both the label and the Arizona-based band. With increased distribution demands and a rise in radio play, Fueled By Ramen set up its first real office space that same year.Fact|date=September 2008In 2004, Fall Out Boy’s
Pete Wentz introduced Fueled By Ramen to fellow Chicago rock outfitThe Academy Is... who released their acclaimed debut album "Almost Here", the following year. Soon thereafter, Janick joined forces with Wentz to createDecaydance Records and released a series of albums from a disparate-sounding group of acts ranging from the alternative hip-hop ofGym Class Heroes to the indie-pop comboThe Hush Sound . In September 2005, Decaydance and Fueled By Ramen released "A Fever You Can't Sweat Out ", the RIAA platinum-certified debut album from Las Vegas’Panic At The Disco .Fact|date=September 2008In late 2006, Vinnie Fiorello announced that he was leaving Fueled By Ramen, citing a clash between business interests and musical creativity as the primary reason. On the subject of the departure, he said the following:
In 2007 the label opened an office in midtown Manhattan and that same year Paramore’s album "
Riot! " debuted in the Billboard Top 20, was certified gold and has recently gained platinum status. Panic At The Disco’s second album "Pretty. Odd. " enjoyed similar success, debuting at number #2 on Billboard’s Top 200 chart, selling over 139,000 copies its first week and making it the fastest-selling album in the label’s history.Fact|date=September 2008Artists signed to Fueled By Ramen
