Make America Psycho Again is the first remix album by Fall Out Boy, released on October 30, 2015.[4] The album is a remixed version of the band's original album American Beauty/American Psycho, and features a different rapper on each song. The album drew in over 13,000 equivalent copies in the United States its debut week.[5] The title alludes to the "Make America Great Again" campaign slogan used by then-presidential candidate Donald Trump during the 2016 election cycle.[1] The album artwork features a red-tinted photo of the same face-painted boy from the original cover, holding a sparkler.
