March 26, 2008 (FPRC) -- Panic at the Disco (previously known as Panic! at the Disco, and often shortened to merely Panic!, P!ATD, P!@tD, or PATD) is a band that originated in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA. Their sound incorporates elements of pop, electronica, dance, and rock, along with many other genres. Their 2005 debut album, A Fever You Can't Sweat Out, reached #13 on the US Billboard 200, and has sold over 2.2 million copies since its September 2005 release. The band's second album, Pretty. Odd., will be released March 25, 2008. The album's first single, "Nine in the Afternoon", was released on January 29, 2008.
Panic at the Disco, like many bands within Decaydance Records including Fall Out Boy, are subject to wide debate about their musical genres. The main reason for this is the wide variety of different musical elements in their debut album A Fever You Can't Sweat Out. While Panic has been called an emo band, they themselves do not consider their music emo as stated in an interview with NME, "Emo is bullshit. We want to be the new Radiohead". However, some point out that they are signed to a record label owned by Pete Wentz of Fall Out Boy, a band considered by many to be emo.
However, Panic have gone on record many times saying that their second album would be completely different from A Fever You Can't Sweat Out, as Rolling Stone wrote in an article: "The group cemented its current direction with their first single, called "Nine in the Afternoon". "It’s influenced by the music our parents listened to: the Beach Boys, the Kinks, the Beatles", says Ross. "Our new songs are more like classic rock than modern rock. We got older and started listening to different music – and this seems like the natural thing to do right now." The Vanderbilt University online student community, insidevandy.com, reported on the album style in a blog. "Band members have referenced more mature influences and have expressed a desire for a less hurried, digitized sound than on their previous effort...The first single from the album, "Nine in the Afternoon,"...displays what Panic has described as the album's classic rock tone. The song's bouncy sound and classic pop structure and instrumentation allude to mature influences...Another new song, "When the Day Met the Night," reflects a similar style, featuring poppy, tinkling piano melodies and sunshine-y guitar riffs."
