Their old songs are combinations of the Killers, The Postal Service, Death Cab, classical music, and pop-punk. Weird combination, but it worked. After every single member left, Brendon Urie is now the only member, so he experimented with electronica to mixed success.
Panic! At the Disco was one of the most original bands of the mid 2000s. Now they aren't the worst band around but if i had to listen to one modern day alt-rock song, it would probably be by the Black Keys

Get the Panic! At the Disco mug.
A band hailing from Las Vegas, that sounds like a dancey-poppier version of Fall Out Boy, only 10 x more repetative. Discovered by Pete Wentz OF Fall Out Boy.

After the hatred between Pete Wentz and Brandon Flowers (the Killers), Panic! released the song "London Beckoned Songs About Money Written By Machines" with the lyrics:

<i>"Stop stalling, make a name for yourself.
Boy you better put your pen to paper, charm your way out.
If you talk you better walk you better back your shit up,
with more than good hooks while you're all under the gun.
Start talking "a sensationalist",
Only slightly clever to just a certain extent.
If you talk, you better walk, you better keep your mouth shut
With more than good hooks while you're all under the gun."</i>

Taking a stab at Brandon for being unoriginal, after the release of the Killers' song "Under The Gun", which was released only in the United Kingdom.

Which is incredibly ironic, because had it not been for Pete Wentz, the Panic! would be nowhere. And considering the fact that they're basically a creation from Pete's own pen, the pure hypocrisy of this statement is nauseating.
All of the old Panic! At The Disco fans believe that they're better than the new ones for discovering them "first".

All of the new Panic! fans are dillusional, and believe they've been fans from the beginning.

Everyone forces themselves to like them because of the catchy name and because of the fact that they most likely adore Fall Out Boy.

An awesome rock/pop/electronic/dance/emo band from Las Vegas. They named their band after a line from a song called "Panic" by Name Taken, which is a reference to the song "Panic" by The Smiths.
Pete Wentz signed them to his label Decaydance.
Originally formed by Spencer Smith and Ryan Ross. They then recruted Brendon Urie and Brent Wilson.
Popular thanks in-part to the internet.
Very well dressed.

Panic at the Disco is, quite simply, the reason for all existence. These males are superbly attractive in every way imaginable; from Ryan's vanilla deodorant to Jon's Christmas/Sensual Amber smell to Spencer's love of black dress shirts, this band is the equivalent of existing. Each member of the band - Spencer James Smith V, George Ryan Ross III, Jonathan Jacob Walker, and Brendon Boyd Urie - is absolutely, astoundingly, amazing perfect in every way imaginable. Anybody that doesn't agree with said statement shall perish at once. Now, despite what you may believe to be true, there is no exclamation point/mark in the title "Panic at the Disco". It was heftily removed in January of 2008, which was nearly a year ago, so you shawtehz shall CEASE using it, at once. Stupendous lyrics and admirable song titles put Panic at the Disco at the top of every teenager's list. Most of these "fans", however, aren't actually fans. You see, my dear friend, those who think they are fans merely because they find frontman Brendon Urie attractive, shall die in a fire at this time. Those pathetic humans need to open their stupid little eyes and become aware of the fact that other members are in the band, as well; for instance, Jon, Spencer, and Ryan. Each of these males is equally attractive; not one of them is superior to any of the others in any way. Panic at the Disco recently toured alongside Black Gold, Motion City Soundtrack, The Hush Sound, and Phantom Planet on the 2008 Honda Civic tour, which I, Samantha, gladly attended (and, might I say, those males were looking especially appealing on the night of April 30th, 2008). For some reason, most Panic at the Disco "fans" have it in their naughty little minds that "Ryden" and "Joncer" actually exist. I, however, will not believe these rumors until the day the future bearers of my children confirm said accusations; besides, Jon and Spencer are currently occupied by females, clearly named Cassie, as well as Haley. Now that you've finished reading this, do attend the website that is myspace.com/panicatthedisco, so that you yourself can witness such musical genius.
