Odd., split fans and critics, and found them beginning a creative journey that would also see lineup changes. However, their follow-up, the '60s psychedelia-influenced Pretty. Championed from the start by fellow emo-pop favorites Fall Out Boy, Panic! At the Disco found success on MTV and on the charts with the wordy, hyperkinetic anthem "I Write Sins Not Tragedies" from their 2005 debut A Fever You Can't Sweat Out. gave them the confidence to take risks and do whatever they want.One of the biggest acts to emerge out of the emo movement of the mid-2000s, Panic! At the Disco transcended their early fame, transforming into a vehicle for singer Brendon Urie's charismatic, cross-pollinated brand of pop.
Without this album, there’s every chance the band would have faded into obscurity but Pretty. is the black sheep of the Panic! discography but the fearless, reckless spirit that inhabits every inch of this record is the very reason Panic! are so brilliant and so unpredictable even now, 17 years into their career. That stunning debut album inspired countless copycat bands and it would have been so easy for the sudden superstars to come back with more of the same, but their desire to shock resulted in this - a Beatles-inspired record that traded in scrappy synths and urgent electric guitars for beautiful piano and soulful poetry. Over their six albums, Panic! At The Disco have been celebrated for their ability to evolve, surprise and go against what’s expected. Honing in on that sense of jubilance, tracks like Victorious, Hallelujah and Don’t Threaten Me With A Good Time saw the Panic! become the go-to-gang for feel good pop while the title track and House Of Memories saw Urie get vulnerable for the first time in a long while, bringing that emo tag back into the present day.Įvery distinct, unique song on this record is an absolute hit. Panic! essentially became a solo project on this record and Brendon Urie really threw himself into the spotlight.
