Alex Zane >>>>>>> Derek Acorah

Britain's Obtusest Shepherd (Alan), Tuesday, 7 November 2006 15:22 (nineteen years ago)

At least Acorah has a comedy backstory (the ghost of Bill Shankly telling him to persue a career in light entertainment). Alex Zane, on the other hand, looks like he spent his entire school years baiting kids into hitting him before getting them suspended.

Current British TV personalities more loathable than Alex Zane

Zane's hair has gone more Brand-esque (Russell of Jo? who knows anymore)

but not sure he is worse than Justin Lee Francis

That one guy in the interview sounded like Tom Cruise when he got squirted:
"Why would you do that? You're a jerk!"

I can't believe I never objected to the rickety thesis behind this thread.

apparently they have "matured" and "grown beards" and have been listening to lots of "authentic" "music"

J0rdan S., Tuesday, 29 January 2008 21:26 (eighteen years ago)

Still dig the first album, and am cautiously optimistic about the new one - single sounds good from here.

Tantrum The Cat, Tuesday, 29 January 2008 22:38 (eighteen years ago)

J0rdan S, I think it looks like a nice cover. Calling it a "bullshit knit thing your grandmother would have hanging up by the fridge" is both not funny and wrong.

The allmusic review remarked that "Do You Know What I'm Seeing" sounds like a Morrissey parody, and sure enough it does. Judging from the album cover (and judging from the review and this one song I've heard) it looks like they found Ogden's Nut Flake in a record store.

BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Monday, 31 March 2008 20:08 (eighteen years ago)

ayo sh1pley have you heard this?

J0rdan S., Monday, 31 March 2008 20:09 (eighteen years ago)

I haven't liked any of their singles to date, and The Black Parade effectively scared me off emo-goes-classic-rock, so no.

Alex in Baltimore, Monday, 31 March 2008 20:39 (eighteen years ago)

Supposedly at their live shows the guy is all melodyne'd up and doesn't sound anything like the records. Another reason to love em.

The new album is brilliant. It is of course about as far from Emo and oughties teenage angst that you can possibly get though. Instead they have went out and made a great powerpop album. :)

Two Members Quit Panic at the Disco

Guitarist Ryan Ross and bassist Jon Walker are leaving to start a new project. Get all the details here.

By Peter Gaston 07.06.09 2:04 PM

Two of Panic at the Disco's four members are leaving the band, according to a post on their official website.

Guitarist Ryan Ross and bassist Jon Walker announced that they are departing the Las Vegas-based emo-pop act to pursue their own project together.

"Though the four of us have made music together in the past, we've creatively evolved in different directions which has compromised what each of us want to personally achieve," the statement read. "Over the years, we have remained close and honest with each other, which helped us to realize that our goals were different and that parting ways is truly what is best for each of us. We are all excited for the future, you should be too."

Frontman Brendon Urie and drummer Spencer Smith will continue under the Panic at the Disco name, and plan to go ahead with their 12 announced tour dates this summer as an opening act on the Blink-182 reunion tour, beginning August 4 in Milwaukee, WI.

Founding members Ross, Smith, and Urie have been friends since their early teens, while Walker joined the band in 2006 after the departure of original bassist Brent Wilson.

Any thoughts on a group like this possibly being outside of critical purview? This was a really good single.

timellison, Wednesday, 18 January 2012 02:26 (fourteen years ago)

Huh, now I see the critic there - Annie Zaleski, who writes for A.P. - had a comment published, too, on just this topic re. the Patrick Stump album.

timellison, Wednesday, 18 January 2012 04:19 (fourteen years ago)

P!ATD did better circa Pretty Odd iirc

Mordy, Wednesday, 18 January 2012 04:21 (fourteen years ago)

looks like it did better in any case:

in 2008 (6) votes for the album and (4) for the single

Mordy, Wednesday, 18 January 2012 04:24 (fourteen years ago)

pretty. odd is a great record. they lost their principal songwriter when the band split in half, so this year's record was kind of underwhelming though i do like "ready to go"

Whiney vs. (BradNelson), Wednesday, 18 January 2012 04:28 (fourteen years ago)

Patrick Stump album did get eight votes this year.

man this band has really sucked for a while. just marveling at it

HYPERLINK TO RAP GENIUS (BradNelson), Friday, 29 January 2016 22:52 (ten years ago)

My niece was watching Panic! videos on her laptop the other day. They're sucking for a whole new generation!

how's life, Friday, 29 January 2016 22:54 (ten years ago)

I shouldn't have included that second exclamation point. The one in the band name was enough for my whole post.

how's life, Friday, 29 January 2016 22:55 (ten years ago)

i was trying to assemble an album out of good songs from their last three records and i actually can't. there have been like five good songs

HYPERLINK TO RAP GENIUS (BradNelson), Friday, 29 January 2016 23:02 (ten years ago)

I enjoyed "Hallelujah" on the radio last summer but that was one of the very few times i've ever liked anything by them

77 lines about 77 albums i haven't heard (some dude), Friday, 29 January 2016 23:11 (ten years ago)

"hallelujah" is pretty ok! "victorious" is basically evil garbage
