![]() Panic! At the Disco will also hit the road this fall for an extensive tour of the U.S., Canada, Europe and the U.K. “I didn’t realize I was making an album and there was something about the tape machine that kept me honest.” “ Viva Las Vengeance is a look back at who I was 17 years ago and who I am now with the fondness I didn’t have before,” Urie hinted of the upcoming album in a statement. ![]() The 12-track LP will also contain as-yet-unheard songs such as “Local God,” “Star Spangled Banger,” “God Killed Rock and Roll” and “Something About Maggie.” ![]() He continues to push boundaries as the steady frontman of Panic!, letting the band's sound further evolve with 2016's ‘Death of a Bachelor' and 2018's ‘Pray for the Wicked.“Viva Las Vengeance” also serves as the title track and album opener to the act’s upcoming follow-up to 2018’s chart-dominating Pray for the Wicked, which is slated to be released Aug. From that point on, Urie would remain the only original member. Hip-hop and dance styles were woven into 2013's ‘Too Weird to Live, Too Rare to Die!' which would be the last record to feature Smith on drums. Odd.' The following year, both Ross and Jon Walker (who'd replaced Wilson on bass in 2006) departed the group, but Urie and Smith stayed on as a duo and released 2011's ‘Vices & Virtues.' Going forward, Panic! continued to heavily experiment with their sound. In 2008, they returned with the more psychedelic ‘Pretty. First single "I Write Sins Not Tragedies" landed on the Billboard Hot 100, and by 2006 they were already headlining tours. Their debut album, ‘A Fever You Can't Sweat Out,' was unleashed to the world in September 2005. Though most of the band was still in high school and they had yet to perform a live show, Wentz signed them immediately to his new Fueled by Ramen imprint label Decaydance Records. Soon they were writing their own pop-punk tunes and sending demos to Fall Out Boy's Pete Wentz. They decided to call themselves Panic! At the Disco, a line plucked from a song called "Panic" by California rock band Name Taken. Vocalist and guitarist Brendon Urie, guitarist Ryan Ross, drummer Spencer Smith, and bassist Brent Wilson came together in 2004 and began using Smith's grandmother's living room as a space to practice playing blink-182 songs. Panic! At the Disco started innocently enough among four teenagers from the Las Vegas suburbs. You may even be lucky enough to see him effortlessly pull off Queen's mega-classic "Bohemian Rhapsody," which he performed during the Death of a Bachelor tour and Pray for the Wicked tour. Frontman Brendon Urie remains a magnetic leader, playing both the untouchable rock star and the showstopping theatrical performer. As each release has become more ambitious, so have their live shows. The band first stepped onto a stage in 2005 after recording their debut album, ‘A Fever You Can't Sweat Out.' They proved to be even more dynamic on stage than in the studio, and began a long round of touring by 2006, including their Nothing Rhymes with Circus tour, which involved an elaborate setup of dance numbers and skits. One of pop's most exciting live acts, Panic! At the Disco has long commanded stages around the world with their vibrant, passionate performances. lots of energy- he puts everything into his performances! there's this one high pitched note that he rly loved doing in like every song & towards the mid-end i'm like ok i get it you got octaves lol. but towards the end it did rly become a brendon urie concert lol. much less theatrical too lol (not saying theatrics is a bad thing!) at this point, the band has ended. my gf and i saw them twice over the past maybe 5-6 years, and i rly saw crazy vocal improvement, and could actually understand what he was saying lol. i know it's an unpopular opinion probably, but if i'd have to rate that show vocally it would have been maybe a 5/10? HOWEVER. i didn't know all of the songs fully & although the show was good (i remember big balloons being bounced around i think lol), i found it hard to understand what he was saying if i didn't know the words. saw them at the Wells Fargo Center in Philly. first was years ago (2005-6?) with their first big tour of the first album.
