I think they're awesome! I love their songs, especially "Lying is the Most Fun a Girl can have without taking her Clothes off" and "But it's Better if You Do"

Anyone else a fan?

I had a feeling these guys would be a name that everyone'd be dropping this year. A girl I know who interviews bands has known them for ages. Musically though, they're shit.

Just another poppy band riding the coattails really.

-AC

I was expecting comments like that (just like in the Fall Out Boy thread) lol. I just really like them, and think they're songs are really catchy.

Fall Out Boy have already said that they love the band in some magazines, that's all P!atD needed to become popular. Whether they're good or not they have more or less millions of guaranteed fans thanks to Fall Out Boy.

Shouldn't be that way really, but that's how it is.

-AC

I find this Song Title amusing: "Lying is the Most Fun a Girl can have without taking her Clothes off"

Well, I didn't know that because my friend recommended them to me, and she doesn't even like Fall Out Boy, I don't think....

And that's the way everything goes though, isn't it? Some people are lucky, some aren't. That's life. That's the business.

True indeed, but if I was in a band at the height of their popularity, I'd want the bands I liked to get ahead on their own, nor off my back.

Mainly because if they're great then they should earn it. Nor would I want to force bands down people's throats.

-AC

'cos you gotta be seen to be scene..


anyway, i dont have any strong feelings for them either way, i dont really listen to them but dont cringe when i hear them - i heard their EP's and demo's ages ago and knew they'd be the next scene-band after MCR and Fall Out Boy

my friend and others keep saying panic! is a great band, but i havent gotten around to listening to them.

Decent.

i like P!ATD. i think it's 'cause their catchy.

I just heard most of their new album, and I must say; their lead singer sounds a LOT like Patrick (the lead singer) from Fall Out Boy. The bands themselves don't sound too much alike, but the frontmen really sound alike.

I'd say their average. Nothing special, but not horrible either. I just hope they don't get a billion teenage girl fans, which I almost know they will.

i just heard em, they 'sing' like fallout boy, but musically their different. catchy tunes

Just listened to some of the music, not a fan at all, especially of the vocals.

...are you human?

No. The band is nothing special to my ears.

I like them! Have for some time now...I think they are great!

i just got their cd from my friend

my friend who HATES Fall Out Boy recommended them to me lol...i love their catchyness....and i may be a teenager...and a girl....but im not a little fangirl that follows trends...i liek what i liek...just before i get insults lol

After hearing a few tracks that some ***** sent me I can gladly say that they're pretty decent.

I saw them on TRL today! I thought it was cute how they were sooo nervous...I got a kick out of it. (I would be nervous too though)

Anyone heard or listen to them? What you think?

ive said it in another thread, but things have changed so..:

'because you have to be seen to be scene'

i like em...I've heard them on myspace.

FREAKING AWSOME!~!!!!!

perfect hahahahahahaha

what?? its true, I HAVE heard them on myspace...somone had them on their profile...

yeah, Panic! does have a myspace profile too

dont worry, private joke i guess

ah okay, no biggie!

I love 'em...going to see them in concert with The Academy Is... in 21 days!!! I cant wait!

id love to see The Academy Is... but i wouldnt want to suffer through the sea of scene and Panic!

The Academy Is...is my favorite group! Panic! comes in a close second though, so to see them together is going to be great for me!

Yet another over-hyped band that will be gone or at least have their egos deflated after the release of their first album going into second (see The Darkness, Franz Ferdinand and Oasis for prime examples).

The Darkness, unlike other bands, haven't actually let the hype ruin their ability to work.

Hence their second album being better than anything produced by both bands you just mentioned.

-AC

I agree.

-AC

yeah there good ive got some songs on my ipod.

The songs I've heard I really liked, but that is only two of them lol

i love them, they're kewl

Haven't heard of em.. What kinda music do they make?

Haven't you people ever heard of closing the goddamn door?!

Ergh, the newest obsession of my grade "Omg the hot emo guy in the Panic! video!"

Well just tell them his name is Daniel Isaac...thats what I did and it stopped

umm... they're kinda bleh to me. Very very boybandish imo. I like the video to "I write sins not tragedies" though...

I like the video too! I think that it is pretty dang cool...

what kinda rock do they do cause i cant really tell.

They're pop. A pop band.

-AC

listened to them for the first time the other day...reasonable for a band that has such an obvious target market...cant say much beyond that

they have good songs....

They aren't pop. Of all the reviews I've read they're Emo more than anything. And I do think "Daniel Isaac" or whatever his name is is hot
The video is great as well, its always on Kerrang.

They are actually pop though. They're making pop music.

They annoy me, mainly because they are a blatant copy of Fall Out Boy, who was nothing new in the first place

the guy from Fall Out Boy actually got them signed.

Doesnt surprise me, I know FOB likes Panic at the Disco.

Pete Wentz (from FOB) is the one that signed them to his label...

Yes I believe that was a know fact, as told by DF02

Oh sorry, I was just trying to be more specific...

No prob. It doesnt change my opinion of the band as much as it does that of their fans. i dont think this band would be nearly as popular without Fall Out Boy

I would have to agree with you...I don't think they would be anywhere without Fall Out Boy

Originally posted by beLIEve

O i never knew that, interesting to know..

They do sound similar. P!ATD just has more of a techno-thingy to them.

They wouldn't sound similar at all, IMO, if their lead singer didn't sound so much like Patrick (from Fall Out Boy). They sound pretty different, musically.

thats exactly what i thought....

Good

Just got there CD and I'm lovin it.

I like the single the best, but the whole CD is real good too.

There a kick ass band.

I heard a few people saying they sound like fall out boy.

I don't think so I don't like fall out boy except for one song.

I hate them .

They're alright but their incredibly long song titles piss me off. A lot of bands have one or too kinda long titles but with them its every single damn one. Are we supposed to make up abreviations or something?

Like LIMFGCHWTHCO? or TGRWTTANHYJHTIY?

Yes that is what you must do.

I saw them a couple months ago when they were on tour with The Academy Is... and they were really good. Now they are going on their own tour this summer. I am trying to decide whether or not to go...is anyone else going?

Fall Out Boy 4 Life

I saw them the other day too...haha

They have very little musical talent.

Having really long titles must attract emo kids or something.

Originally posted by SCENEXCORE

yeah, I never understood their titles o.o do they have to be so long?

Anyways, imo, they're shit. Just another poppy band that girls go nuts over.

And now some boys.............I hate how these bands get the spotlight, and all the popularity with little musical talent. Yet, much more deserving talented bands such as Dream Theater get none of that.

The long titles make their fans feel intelligent, but really the band and fans are just pretentious @#'?'s.

I think this band are so poor, just so very bad.

then again sufjan stevens has ridiculously long song titles...but his stuff is actually good

The track listing from illinoise being a case in point

1. Concerning the UFO sighting near Highland, Illinois
2. The Black Hawk War, or, How To Demolish An Entire Civilization and Still Feel Good About Yourself in the Morning, or, We Apologize for the Inconvenience But You're Going To Have To Leave Now, or, "I have fought the Big Knives and will continue to fight them till they are off our lands!"
3. Come On! Feel the Illinoise! / Part I: The World's Columbian Exposition / Part II: Carl Sandburg Visits Me In A Dream
4. John Wayne Gacy, Jr.
5. Jacksonville
6. A short reprise for Mary Todd, who went insane, but for very good reasons
7. Decatur, or, Round of Applause for Your Step-Mother!
8. One last "Whoo-hoo!" for the Pullman
9. Chicago
10. Casimir Pulaski Day
11. To The Workers of The Rock River Valley Region, I have an idea concerning your predicament, and it involves an inner tube, bath mats, and 21 able-bodied men
12. The Man of Metropolis Steals Our Hearts
13. Prairie Fire That Wanders About
14. A conjunction of drones simulating the way in which Sufjan Stevens has an existential crisis in the Great Godfrey Maze
15. The Predatory Wasp of The Palisades Is Out To Get Us
16. They Are Night Zombies!! They Are Neighbors!! They Have Come Back From the Dead!! Ahhhh!
17. Let's hear that string part again, because I don't think they heard it all the way out in Bushnell
18. In This Temple As in The Hearts of Man For Whom He Saved The Earth
19. The Seer's Tower
20. The Tallest Man, the Broadest Shoulders / Part I: The Great Frontier / Part II: Come to Me Only With Playthings Now
21. Riffs and Variations on a single note for Jelly Roll, Earl Hines, Louis Armstrong, Baby Dodds, and the King of Swing, to name a few
22. Out of Egypt, into the Great Laugh of Mankind, and I shake the dirt from my sandals as I run

The sufjan stevens titles are not as irritating as the PATD titles, maybe because I actually like his music. Still slightly annoying though,

I think it's a bit retarded. Two people on my MSN have it as their screename

Any band that steals song titles from a Natalie Portman movie lose credibility to me.

-AC

I think Morrisey and the Smiths are responsible for all of these EMO bands using massively long and pretentious song titles.

this is my new favorite band. i dont know why. but i hate their song "i write sins not tragedies" its so annoying..... but i like "but its better if you do" even though i didnt like it at first....... i think with this band it takes a while to like them. thats what happened to me anyway, i didnt really like them except for "'The only difference between martyrdom and suicide is press coverage" but after a while and when i read the other song lyrics i just really liked them. "There's A Good Reason These Tables Are Numbered Honey, You Just Haven't Thought Of It Yet" is a good song too....

Sorry for the resurrection. I was made aware of the thread in one that I had started.

I gave into curiosity tonight, scoping out bands. Given, I've known of P!ATD for a while now, just never bothered listening. Suffice to say, I enjoy their music, and their look. It's like a vaudeville act, set to music. Really showy, self-conscious, eccentric, outrageous songs and just a lot of fun.

Having read a lot of the comments in this thread, I think some are being a little harsh, even pretentious, because of their fanbase. The song titles are just clever, not intended to make fans feel "smart", given they probably can't remember them all, nor have anything to do with the songs themselves. Being catchy isn't always a bad thing. Just like pop music isn't a cancer.

The fact that you spent the time subconsciously justifying why you like them tells me that you see exactly why people have said what they've said.

They're a shit band and they're doing nothing but lowering the standard.

-AC

I've always given reasons as to why I like or dislike things. It's never subconscious, with me, it's automatic, and out of respect to the artists, do more than most who just give their two cents and jet. I don't get the reasoning behind the negative opinion of them based on this thread alone. Anti-pop assholes bawlking at a band because of underlying circumstances like song titles, the fan base, and unfair labels like "emo" is garbage. If you don't like a band's music, that's perfectly fine. Leave it at that. It's just that too many people go too far out of their way to find reasons to hate bands, making fans, be it trendy or sincere, feel like they have to "stand up" for them. Personally, I take the Ricky Bobby approach. "If you don't like _______, then **** you."

It's unfortunate, because I see something that a lot of people have failed to, or just ignore, because they're wildly popular, and for all the wrong reasons.

I think the band are shit, incredibly so. It has nothing to do with what they are or aren't labelled, I just think they're shit. That, plus the fact that they decided to not only cover Karma Police by Radiohead, but had the sheer audacity to change the lyrics. I'm not sure who they think they are.

They're nothing to do with emo, they're simply a pop band. No more or less, they are a pop band. A band, but a pop one. Nothing wrong with good pop music in my eyes, but they don't fall into the good section. Them, Fall Out Boy, The Academy Is, they all suck each other off in order to get success off each other. Fans of one will be fans of the other and they pimp that out. I've got no respect for that.

As for their song titles, they're not clever, they're just long. Nothing Morrissey didn't do before them.

I don't care about popularity, personally. I dislike them because they're shit. I just wonder how long you're gonna carry the elitist label upon your back now that you like Panic! at the Disco.

-AC

Panic!at the disco is hot!!!

did they writ Kama Police? coz i heard it off sum other band. some redhead or sumthin. but me likes theys betta.

No, anyways, the cover is not horrible, though I didn't even hate Limp Bizkit's cover of Behind Blue Eyes. Except for that I haven't heard anything by them, but I assume they are one of them bands you shouldn't listen to when you are in the mood to listen to good music. I might be way off. I don't feel the need to check them out really at the moment.

And they did change the lyrics, didn't they? Bastards.

They are one of those bands that people say are good to just "Have fun" listening to.

Aka: They're shit, but I like them anyway.

Good, simple, fun music doesn't have to be shit music, I think the people who like this band forget that.

They're painful live but they have a couple of catchy tunes.

I can't stand em.

They are incredibly catchy, but then so are herpes.

Absolute garbage, IMO.

I've got a weird ebb and flow when it comes to new bands I discover, however P!ATD, I'm still pretty keen on.

I guess opinions are rendered over time.

Umm... ewwww, gross. Why is there even a thread on Panic?

innocent question.

i keep hearing Panic's song on the radio, and it has the lines.. 'exactly where you want me to be' or something.. can anyone tell me its title?

That's "But It's Better If You Do".

oh. okay. thanks.

well, im not overly keen on them, but ive got a mate who thinks they are living bloody saints!it bugs the hell outta me!

Oh I know...

one of many recent overrated, crummy groups...while I'm on that train of thought, where's the "My Chemical Romance" thread...oh boy...

Just because a band has a lot of fans doesn't mean they're overrated. I, personally, can appreciate the uniquity of their music, unlike a good 75% of their fans.

Besides, music being "overrated" is subjective, because who's an authority? Someone may have a knack for being continually "good" at perceiving a band and their music, but in the end, it's all opinion.

I disagree.

See my new post..

http://www.killermovies.com/forums/440206_1-why-do-people-think-musics-subjective

That's fine. It's individual perception, ultimately an opinion which holds no more leverage that anyone elses, except for the occassional critic who may have a good track record, personal tastes notwithstanding.

I heard in NME that Panic! have aspirations to become the next Radiohead. No chance.

No, they're a pop band.

You like them, so you don't want to say you like a pop band. The fact is, they are pop. Having instruments doesn't make you a rock band by default, you know.

They are today's boybands. Except they are literally bands.

I wouldn't never deny liking a pop band, but the thing is there are officially labeled as "alternative rock." Well, you can keep your opinion but I'm entitled to mine as well.

Saying theyre alternative rock isnt an opinion. Its just plain wrong. They are pop rock, if anything.

There's no need to add "Rock", just because they play instruments, can we stop doing that? Thanks.
