![]() ![]() ![]() There were no rules set yet for the band. Panic! at the Disco for me has been an outlet to do whatever. Why release the album under Panic! at the Disco’s name as opposed to framing it as a solo release? Urie recently sat down with Rolling Stone to discuss the album, the band’s history, the Beach Boys and why he’ll always play “I Write Sins Not Tragedies” live. Watch an exclusive clip from the interview, where Urie discusses synesthesia, above. Influenced by Frank Sinatra, the album is Urie’s goodbye to all that: He bids farewell to the band’s old sound and even to his former relationship status, reflecting on life before his recent marriage and giving it a raging send-off. With only Urie left under the moniker, Panic! has just released its fifth album, Death of a Bachelor. Odd. Guitarist Ryan Ross and bassist Jon Walker soon split, leaving only singer Brendon Urie and drummer Spencer Smith, before Smith officially departed just last year following time in rehab. After making baroque, theatrical emo sound cool with their debut album, 2005’s A Fever You Can’t Sweat Out, the Las Vegas group took one of rock’s riskiest moves when it transitioned to more stripped-down, Rubber Soul–inspired folk-pop for 2008’s Pretty. Panic! at the Disco‘s career has been defined by change.
