Pretty Odd - Panic At The Disco

... 'Pretty Odd' opens with the disappointing 'We're So Starving', a minute and a half of lacklustre self loving nonsense. There's a great irony of the band here singing 'You don't have to worry cause we're still the same band', a complete lie of a statement which completely contradicts the ... Read review

Pretty Awful

Advantages: Panic at the Disco have in their career released an excellent album.
Disadvantages: An extremely lacklustre offering, the vocals lack life and the melodies are tedious.

...actual fact going to be pretty rubbish. 'We're so sorry we've been gone' Brendon Urie doth sing, oh how I wish that they'd never come back; at least that way I'd have purely fond memories of the band, as it stands however the mere thought of Panic at the Disco fills me with anger at how such a talented and enthusiastic band could let it all go so horribly wrong.

Before listening to this album I was not at all looking forward to once ...
...every level 'Pretty Odd' is pretty ineffective.

Panic at the Disco is probably the biggest rock band in the world right now, the fact of the matter though is that this second album 'Pretty Odd' just isn't very good. The band show no real signs of promise here, the music is dull and uninspiring; energy is kept to a minimum and when listening to this album you get the distinct impression that after four years together as a band Panic ... more

Panic!

Advantages: Everything
Disadvantages: Nothing!

Within the first few chords of We’re So Starving, you can tell this is an album you won’t forget soon, an album completely different to its predecessor A Fever You Can’t Sweat Out. Starting out with Brendon Urie apologizing for being gone, claiming themselves as the same band. They’ve grown up, taking influences from bands like The Beatles, or The Vines, and a whole new look; can the lead singer still claim this? Telling their ...

Bright and vibrant, it gives off a happy tune, making you want to just dress in your pajamas and get into the nearest main street, to make others feel the same. To feel Pretty. Odd. She’s A Handsome Woman and Do You Know What I’m Seeing goes on to show the bands newfound brightness. “Clouds are marching along, singing a song, just like they do” opens Do ...

Still the same band

Advantages: Brave and Unique
Disadvantages: None!!!

As a panic fan, I admit I was anticpating the release of this CD very much and had even pre-ordered it. Since the release of "A Fever You Can't Sweat Out" the band has definately gathered a lot of fans from around the world. "Pretty. Odd." has a very different feel to the last album, however. Whereas "Fever" was very much get-up-and-dance, "Pretty.Odd." definately has a more relaxed and reflective feel. "We're So Starving" is the first track on the ...
...song on their official myspace page which was the first taste of the new material for many. Admittedly, after hearing this I felt weary and thought Panic have taken such a different turn that they were surely contradicting their lyrics of "we're still the same band". However, after a few listens the song eventually grew on me and became as catchy as the previous material. Shortly after, the well known single "Nine In The Afternoon" was released which ...

Doesn't deserve the bad reviews

Advantages: 'That Green Gentleman', 'Northern Downpour' & 'Mad as Rabbits'
Disadvantages: 'She Had The World'

...a camp fire song. It's Pretty Odd. 'She Had The World' is awful, awful awful. It's one of the worst songs I have ever heard.. ever. I skip it out every time. 'From A Mountain In The Middle Of The Cabins' is another odd one. I am not really sure what I think of it - there are moments of the song that are good - and others which are bad. 'Mad as Rabbits' is the final track on Pretty. Odd. and is by far the best song on the album. Totally mad lyrics. ...
...mixture really works. The keyboard works well. The bass riff in the song is very good. Admittedly, it's not the best album in the world - but I don't think it deserves the bad reviews it has received. But I have managed to listen to the album almost 100 times - it has lasting value but it's starting to get a bit boring now. ...

Pretty.Odd-Panic At The Disco

Advantages: Tongue in cheek,good humoured band,catchy songs,whacky sounding album.
Disadvantages: Rip off from Sgt Pepper.Bit over stuffed musically which doesnt always work.

I have written and deleted this review about a hundred time! I am finding it so hard to know what to say about this band and this album, but yet I have the massive urge to say something about them! I will begin by saying they are an American Emo quartet and that this album smacks a bit too much of The Beatles Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. As probably the only avid Beatles hater I know, this doesn't impress me but I will allow it because I ...
...about themselves. So who cares that they are blatantly copying old classics and pulling them off as their own because at least they do it without removing their tongues from their cheeks. As for the music, well it sounds a bit mental on this album. What I mean by that is that it's a but over stuffed...busy if you will. It houses a mad theatrical combination of organs, bird sounds, pipes, trumpets, banjos and marching drums and although it's listenable, ...

Bring back the !

Advantages: Easy listening, more mainstream
Disadvantages: A disappointment to Panic! fans

What happened? As a huge fan of the "Fever you can't sweat out" album, I was truly disappointed with newly !-less Panic's long awaited second album. The first track "We're so starving" sounds like an apology for their awful new album, but claims "We're still the same". A far cry from their first album of heavy electro, synth and aggrivated vocals, Pretty.Odd. has definite sixties influences, and I must say they should have stuck with what they're ...
...beautiful love story, which is smothered with cheesey trumpets and bad harmonies. "She had the world" is Pretty.Awful., and "Mad as Rabbits" is...well it's in the title. That Green Gentleman is by far the best song, and it would be pushing it to call it a decent song. Bring back the ! please! ...
