Having found himself unplugging and finding joy in more “honest” analogue recordings with the help of frequent collaborator Jake Sinclair, Brendon has emerged with one of the most pure Panic! albums of recent memory.
Like the rest of us, though, Brendon’s trajectory changed completely in the pandemic. Not only did that record take Brendon to new, er, heights with the colossal High Hopes (which became the longest-leading Number One single in a decade), it was then followed up with the unashamedly cheesy pop of 2019’s Taylor Swift collab ME!. It feels like a message the singer has really taken to heart on Panic! At The Disco’s seventh album, a proper throwback to the ’70s and ’80s rock he grew up loving – albeit sprinkled with plenty of his own theatrical touches along the way.įollowing 2018’s spectacularly sleek Pray For The Wicked, this is something of a surprise. ‘ Three minutes and 30 seconds of a rock’n’roll record is all you need to know,’ croons Brendon Urie on All By Yourself, the penultimate song on Viva Las Vengeance.
