Panic! at the Disco have just released a new EP with two new tracks, Say Amen (Saturday Night) and (f*** A) Silver Lining.

A video for Say Amen (Saturday Night) has also been released:

"Say Amen" is decent enough, I've added it to my playlist.

Posted by: Juan Carlos 🌴 22nd March 2018, 05:18 AM

It's actually a teaser of the new album. It's called Pray for the Wicked and it will be released on June 22.

Posted by: The Hissmobile 22nd March 2018, 04:56 PM

They have gone a bit too poppy sounding and Maroon 5-esque for me.

Say Amen (Saturday Night) is still good though. music.gif

Posted by: Jonjo 30th March 2018, 10:23 PM

Just heard 'Say Amen (Saturday Night)' for the first time and it's really good! I've always liked PATD I just never invested in them more really. I should change that. The video is absolutely fantastic. Video of the year so far.



That high note is amazing!

Posted by: Tombo 31st March 2018, 01:03 AM

I like the songs, I hope the album is good.

Posted by: DropzoneUK 31st March 2018, 05:33 PM

SUPRISED. Have disliked pretty much everything PATD and Brendan Urie have done over the past 5 years but this is very cool! alot different from the old Panic but still got some great vocal lines and the bridge reminds me of 'Lying is the most'.... thanks for posting! tongue.gif

This pretty much sums it up laugh.gif

Death Of A Bachelor is one of my favourite albums of recent years tbh, and these two tracks feel like the perfect way to move on from that era without changing the sound up too much. Really loving Say Amen especially though!

New song 'High Hopes releasing tomorrow! biggrin.gif

Posted by: WhoOdyssey 23rd May 2018, 06:05 PM



I think I prefer their first two songs they released from this album, but this is still very good.

Posted by: Dexton 24th May 2018, 03:32 AM

UGH now I have a new favourite song called High Hopes. Sorry Kodaline tongue.gif

Posted by: Colm 25th May 2018, 07:12 AM

Just heard High Hopes. Quite infectious.

Posted by: Ronald McJackson 26th May 2018, 08:46 PM

I'm not really liking the new one.

Posted by: Lindsey 🙃 28th May 2018, 04:57 PM

Love the new stuff so far, High Hopes is my fave wub.gif

Posted by: Dobbo 7th June 2018, 01:10 PM

Took me far too long to work out Say Amen sampled Lil Wayne's A Milli.

Really good output again from them!

Posted by: WhoOdyssey 18th June 2018, 04:09 PM



New single King of the Clouds is out now.

It's alright, but it's easily the weakest out of the four songs they've released from the new album.

Posted by: Dexton 19th June 2018, 01:28 AM

Not bad, it's definitely an album track though tongue.gif

It also samples this


Posted by: HarryEzra 27th June 2018, 03:40 PM

Hey Look Ma, I made it, One Of The Drunks and Dancing's Not a Crime are the best album tracks easily wub.gif

Posted by: Midge 29th June 2018, 08:09 PM

The more I listen to "High Hopes" the more I *really* like this track!

Posted by: Dexton 30th June 2018, 06:07 PM

There isn’t a single song on this album I don’t like... which is a first for me ohmy.gif Something about the theatrical cynicism of Brendan’s voice has got me hooked. I’ve been playing their previous album right after this one too - they have a lot of similarities but are very different at the same time. I do prefer DOAB’s Impossible Year to PFTW’s Dying in LA as their closing tracks (so far, anyway, although Dying In LA has been stuck in my head all day laugh.gif)

Posted by: Dexton 1st July 2018, 02:51 AM

High Hopes enters the ARIA Top 50 at #44, becoming their 6th Top 50 hit in Australia and first since The Ballad Of Mona Lisa in 2011 cheer.gif This is also their 2nd #1 album here wub.gif

Posted by: Liаm 1st July 2018, 01:14 PM

Idk why and how I slept on Say Amen for so long, great song wub.gif I'll have to check the whole album out.

Posted by: SameBoy 3rd July 2018, 04:37 PM

The album gets better each listen, hopefully "High Hopes" can be their smash on streaming era to drive this album even more than DOAB. dance.gif

I don't know how to rank the albums, it's really hard, all i know is that Pretty. Odd is at the bottom for me. heehee.gif

Posted by: Liаm 8th July 2018, 11:30 PM

Brilliant album now I've got round to it!! wub.gif It all does a fab job of being something a bit different and quite streaming friendly but still very Panic. The singles, Roaring 20s, Dancing's Not A Crime and Hey Look Ma I Made It are the best for me.

Posted by: WhoOdyssey 15th July 2018, 12:24 PM

High Hopes is looking set to go top 40 this week, it would be Panic!'s first since Nine in the Afternoon in 2008!

They've been robbed so many times, most outrageously being The Ballad of Mona Lisa peaking at number 43 sad.gif

Posted by: Dexton 15th July 2018, 12:28 PM

Since it's been out a while and is firmly looking to be my album of the year x (scaled a bit because I could easily give everything a 10 tongue.gif)

07.5 (f*** A) Silver Lining
09.0 Say Amen (Saturday Night)
10.0 Hey Look Ma, I Made It
11.0 High Hopes
09.5 Roaring 20s
08.0 Dancing's Not a Crime

It's amazing how Brendon elevated his popularity after Vices & Virtues, without anyone. He can go even more far if he promotes his works overseas, like some performances in UK. At least he will tour.

Posted by: Dexton 12th August 2018, 04:52 AM

High Hopes up 10 places to #14 in Australia this week wub.gif Could potentially go Top 10 soon too seeing as it’s #12 on Spotify

Posted by: WhoOdyssey 13th August 2018, 12:05 PM

It's great how well Panic have done this era, hopefully he can keep it up for their next album.

Yeah it's been bumped to #1 on Hot Hits Australia (after a video for Eastside which may or may not count) wub.gif The music video is coming out soon too so who knows how far it could go ;o

Posted by: WhoOdyssey 13th August 2018, 03:13 PM

He really needs to get the video out soon!

Posted by: Dexton 18th August 2018, 02:16 PM

High Hopes #7 Australia, officially their has highest charting single wub.gif

Posted by: WhoOdyssey 22nd August 2018, 11:25 PM

Fantastic performance! Now he just needs to release the video. tongue.gif

They should try and get them to perform at the Brits next year, they usually like the token alternative performance!

Would he be nominated for best international male solo or group?

Posted by: SameBoy 26th August 2018, 02:48 PM

Performance at Reading yesterday



he was so happy, amazing show, i need so much to see him cry.gif


Posted by: WhoOdyssey 26th August 2018, 02:57 PM

Yeah, it was an amazing set! I was very happy to see the audience singing along with the new songs!

Love this video! Hopefully it can go top 30 at least in the UK now.

Posted by: SameBoy 27th August 2018, 08:26 PM

Video is trending #1 in UK right now cheer.gif

Posted by: Jonjo 27th August 2018, 11:41 PM

HH is one of my songs of the year. It's just so powerfully uplifting and joyous. Video is decent enough. They always seem to prevent their more "generic" videos from being a boringly, normal/plain video to adding something simple but effective to it.

I need to witness them live drama.gif

Posted by: SameBoy 31st August 2018, 12:46 PM

Wow, Panic sold out 2 dates in The O2 arena in minutes, i'm shocked ohmy.gif
The entire europe leg is sold out apparently, i couldn't even get tickets, waiting for more dates.

Yeah, I don't have the money, but my friend really wants to go. They should definitely add more dates.

Posted by: SLlewellyn 10th September 2018, 10:48 PM

I know "High Hopes" is smashing right now, so doubt they'll move on just yet; but what do people reckon/want them to follow as single #3? I'm hoping for "Roaring 20s" (just for something different on the radio) or "One of the Drunks".

Posted by: Steve201 10th September 2018, 11:10 PM

Wonder if the next single will get radio 1 support?

Posted by: SameBoy 10th September 2018, 11:32 PM

I think Roaring 20 or Dancing Is Not A Crime are the best choices to follow up the success of High Hopes.

Regarding Radio 1, i'm sure they will support Panic! next release, not sure if they will spam everyone like they did with HH tho laugh.gif
HH was instant made for radio, Brendon said he wasn't sure if this song would make the album cut, it was the first song he recorded.

Hopefully R1 can get them on the main stage at the Biggest Weekend next year, they headlned Reading + Leeds ffs!

Touring guitarist since 2013 Kenny Harris will no longer perform with the band amongst allegations of some pretty dodgy Snapchat interactions.

Posted by: SameBoy 24th September 2018, 03:29 PM

/\ I'm happy Brendon handled this quickly and carefully, this is serious allegation.

Curious fact is that The Greatest Showman song was supposed to be a Panic! At The Disco song at first, but it didn't happen.

Posted by: Hexton 9th October 2018, 03:10 PM

Very very excited for this... The Greatest Show was the best song from the movie plus it fits in really well with Brendan’s theatrical aesthetic right now, the original always reminded me of parts of Nicotine so this is just gonna be amazing

Posted by: SameBoy 9th October 2018, 03:38 PM

Brendon about "The Greatest Showman" song:

QUOTE
Brendon tells Variety: “Benj Pasek and Justin Paul are phenomenal writers. They sent that song over and said, ‘We think you should sing this.’ And I heard it and I was like, ‘This sounds like a Panic! song. You guys did a Panic! song better than I’ve ever done a Panic! song. So I would love to.’… I tried it, and then for whatever reason – labels, management, I’m not sure why – I got cut out of the process and it seemed like it wasn’t going to happen. But finally I hooked back up with them and we got a demo version recorded and they mixed it and are putting it out. It’s awesome.”

It was supossed to be for "Pray For the Wicked" i guess.

Posted by: HannibalLetcher 15th October 2018, 03:21 PM

I look forward to hearing 'The Greatest Show' from them.

Posted by: WhoOdyssey 17th October 2018, 06:06 PM

Spotify Singles have been released featuring High Hopes and a cover of Outkast's Hey Ya!

Posted by: HannibalLetcher 25th October 2018, 10:34 AM

Certainly an interesting version of 'Hey Ya' from them.

Why is Brandon's hair bigger than the puppets? Did they not look at any pictures of Brandon before making the puppet?
