As I'm literally counting down the days until the new Panic!
at the Disco CD Death of a Bachelor will be released (15 January), I always remember what lead singer
Brendon Urie wrote on the band's Facebook page about the new CD:
"When I was a little kid and I heard a song I liked on
tv, I would jump up and run to the piano to try and figure it out by ear. When
I was 10 or 11, I built myself a drum kit in the garage made out of empty
laundry detergent buckets, old lawn chairs, paint cans, and old trash cans.
Around that time, my parents got me my first guitar. A baby acoustic. I jumped
between all of these instruments constantly to satisfy the ideas I heard in my
head. At this young age, I realized that music would play a huge part in my
life. I had no idea.
'Death Of A Bachelor' is in honor of those times I spent
alone as a kid. Allowing music to consume me. Playing everything myself just to
get the idea right and out of my head. It’s a beginning to a new era. And an
homage to how it all began.
This album is me. Running to the piano. Building a drum kit.
Strumming a guitar.
Some things never change."
