Panic at the Disco
“We’re So Starving”
3/5 stars

This new demo, which clocks in at just under two minutes, initially underwhelmed Panic’s die-hard fans, who complained on various blogs, but Pete Wentz cleared up the disappointment, posting on his blog that this song was a joke. (As if the lyric “We’re so sorry we’ve been gone/We’ve been busy writing songs for you” didn’t tip anyone off.) Still, the joke ain’t bad: Over chunky, garage-y riffs, frontman Brendon Urie barks in a warbling tenor that could be mistaken for Eddie Vedder’s before launching into a huge chorus that shows off some Queen-style harmonies. No theatrics, no discofied emo, no circuslike xylophones. And it works.
