    Panic! At The Disco's latest offering is a good time, almost all the time. [5 Oct 2013, p.52]

    Too Weird to Live, Too Rare to Die! paints an exciting picture of Panic! At the Disco's genre-bending career trajectory to come.

    This is the sound of a band who have re-discovered the party (the good bits, the bad bits, the seedy bits) and the result is that Too Weird... is an album that pops and fizzes with excitement, vim and intent.
  4. The different moods and soundscapes take awhile to digest and let sink in, but every trip back to the dim dance floor has your feet leaving the disco with fresh moves and new accolades.

    Teeming with melodic hooks and reflective lyrics, Too Weird to Live, Too Rare to Die! is both hypnotic (the lingering closer “The End of All Things”) and beguiling (Far Too Young to Die” and second single “This Is Gospel”).

    It took eight years, but this Sin City-born emo-glam squad finally made its Vegas Album.

    Too Weird to Live, Too Rare to Die! is cold and computerized, celebrating an aesthetic that proudly values overbearing, repetitious style over creative substance and varied timbres.

    Maybe it's their sound, maybe their lyrics, but this band always keeps me coming back for something new, and they never disappoint.

I'm going to be jamming out to this one for a while, and I'm sure there are songs on this album for everyone to do the same. Expand

At the Disco is back with their fourth studio album. Many people complain that they do not sound like "A Fever You Can't Sweat Out". Well to be perfectly blunt with you, they haven't sounded like "A Fever You Can't Sweat Out" since "A Fever You Can't Sweat Out".

    Panic! At the Disco's sound changes as the years progress, and it's for the better. This time

With a mix of guitar music and synth-based pop sounds, Brendon really experiments with vocal effects to create an authentic and memorable sound. The album has no set sound and keeps the listener enticed the whole way through, whether it's the passionate guitars of This is Gospel, the psychedelic sound of Casual Affair, or the romantic essence of The End Of All Things. Key tracks: This Is Gospel, Collar Full, Casual Affair. 81/100 Expand

Most of the songs on TWTL have awesome, addictive music that makes you come back for more. I personally have listened to TWTL many, many times. The electronic tone and editing work surprisingly well, and really just sound great, even on the worst song - "Casual Affair".

    There is nothing good or meaningful to take from TWTL, and DoaB has the same problem. This album has a great sense of style, but a painful lack of substance.
