    From a purely musical standpoint, there's no question that this is All Time Low's best work to date.

    Without the hands of major label henchmen edging them into the most marketable direction, there's an overwhelming feeling that consumes you when listening to Don't Panic that they've had more time, more room to breathe, and more fun this time around.

    All Time Low swallowed their pride, rededicated themselves, and ended up making the best record yet in a very consistently satisfying career.

    While For Baltimore proves they can still write a grade A banger when they put their mind to it, too many songs are destined to have "must try harder" stamped on their report card. [13 Oct 2012, p.52]

    1 of my top 5 all time favorites. No skips. Love it. Underrated band. They don't even have all of their albums on here. 4/9 to be exact.

    Melodies: 9 Overall catchy, but sometimes just boring and generic like in "Canals" or "To Live And Let Go"
