Panic! At the Disco is old news. When’s the last time anyone really heard of them? Sure, they released that record a few months ago, but all of their best music happened years ago.

A band can have all the talent in the world, but if it can’t break through its own majestic bubble to meet the rest of us at least halfway, all bets are off.
