Highlights include Ready to Go (Get Me Out of My Mind), The Calendar and Trade Mistakes.
After the band split in 2009, Urie and Smith stayed on and within two years dropped Vices & Virtues, an okay-ish return to their familiar sound.
In a similar vein to that of Too Weird To Live, Too Rare To Die, this was a record that needed to be released more than it needed to be a piece of art. Probably harsh, but it’s true, there’s only a couple of stand outs here, the big singles, This Is Gospel and Miss Jackson are both pretty decent, whilst I quite like Nicotine, but other than that it’s pretty uninspiring.īetter things were to come for this new incarnation of Panic! At The Disco. Becoming a one man band, and desperate I’d imagine to keep his career afloat, Urie pushed out a 32 minute, ten track album that just about kept him socially relevant long enough to work on some far better material. #6 Too Weird To Live, Too Rare To Die! (2013)Īfter the final original member of the band, Spencer Smith, left for personal reasons, Brendon Urie was effectively the last man standing. And so, I look back at the discography of one of my favourite artists, as I rank the Panic! At The Disco Albums From Worst To Best: This has led to a resurgence in both form and popularity, for both him and the band, and 2018’s Pray For The Wicked was a huge commercial hit. Odd, as well as the departure of drummer Spencer Smith after Vices & Virtues, as of now he operates Panic! pretty much on his own.
Having been a pretty big fan from the beginning, I’ve followed the often tumultuous, occasionally frustrating career of Brendon Urie closely, and after a well documented split from writer Ryan Ross after Pretty. That wonderful era of music is really important to me, the band that stands out above the rest though, was always, Panic! At The Disco. Back in the mid to late 00’s I was what you’d probably consider today as, “going through an emo phase”, I’m not sure I’ve ever fully left said phase, but in the years between 2005-2010, I was pretty obsessed with the likes Fall Out Boy, Blink 182, Green Day, Sum 41 etc.
