Panic at the Jimmy Kimmel Show

Did you miss Panic At The Disco on Jimmy Kimmel's show last night? Not a problem -- there's video of the band playing "Nine In The Afternoon" and "The Green Gentleman" right below these words.

 

The band really seems to like playing these songs live, and the orchestra they brought along is a nice touch. It definitely looks like they're doing a far more straightforward show than they've ever done before. I, personally, like it, because it shows a new confidence in the band. They don't have to hide behind their version of the Circe De Soleil anymore -- they just stand proud as a band and play their songs.

 

Here are the performances, for your enjoyment:

 

"Nine in the Afternoon":

 

 

"The Green Gentleman":

 

Thoughts?
I'm putting my money on them having the #1 album when this week's sales numbers are in.
Also of note to Panic fans... they're on the cover of the new Alternative Press. The subscriber cover, for once, doesn't have a close-up photo of one band member -- just a nice shot of the band. One one hand, I'm pleased with this aesthetic shift. On the other, I'd love to play "I can count your pores!" with a photo of Ryan Ross. Win some, lose some, I suppose.

Holy Crap - Panic At The Disco Really Think They're The Beatles

This is kind of amazing. Someone snagged some really good quality of three songs off the new Panic At The Disco album at the band's show in Stockholm, Sweden -- shockingly enough they contain steady camera work, nobody screaming the wrong lyrics into the microphone, and actually capture the songs. As such, we now have a pretty solid idea of what the new album sounds like [unless someone yanks these videos down, anyway.]

 

If the headline didn't clue you in? It sounds like The Beatles. Not a little, but a lot. The band clearly spent all their time in the cabin building a time machine that can traverse space and time, so they could become a 1960s British band. There is no other way to explain the transformation. Listen for yourselves:

 

"The Green Gentleman"

 



"She's A Handsome Woman"

 



"Mad As Rabbits"

 



 

See? Is it just me? It's kind of amazing that the band decided to go in such a different direction. I'm honestly not sure how I feel about it. It's vaguely catchy, but at the same time, it sounds old to me. Most likely because it screams "1960s" at me. So... is the new Panic At The Disco going to enjoy the same popularity and buzz with this album as they did with the last?

 

Time will tell, I suppose.
