US punk-pop stars Fall Out Boy have credited Melbourne for restoring their health.
The band, with hits including Thnks fr th Mmrs, imploded at Rod Laver Arena while on a 2009 world tour.
Lead singer Patrick Stump said: "I remember specifically sitting in Melbourne Airport knowing it was actually over.
"Nothing came out of anger or hate. You spend too much time around people and it becomes a good idea to spend time apart.''
Guitarist Joe Trohmann added: "Sorry Melbourne. It's not your fault. But this is where the end of Fall Out Boy happened.
"If anything, you led to our health and wellbeing.''
The band reformed this year and will release a new album, Save Rock And Roll, in April.
Stump said the album title alludes to bands that take themselves too seriously.
He said: "They're missing the big picture.
"Some bands are so focused on how cool, how real, and how indie they are, that they're invalidating themselves.''
Joe laughed: "It makes it hard to relate to them.
"The more seriously you take yourself, the more people look at you and say: `WTF is your problem?'''
