Music News :: Panic! At the Disco vs. The Young Veins

Blur vs. Oasis, it ain't, but the teenage myspace flame-war over the Panic At the Disco split has reached a head today as ex-Panic guitarist Ryan Ross and bassist Jon Walker announced their new band and song via myspace. The duo seemly have adopted a style reminiscent of their retro-60's psychedelia work on Panic At the Disco's 2008 sophomore release Pretty. Odd.

Meanwhile, Panic! guitarist Brenden Urie and drummer Spencer Smith re-added the infamous exclamation point to the band's name and have released a new track of their own via myspace, "New Perspective", that's also available on for purchase on iTunes. The song itself is yet another departure for the band, though not nearly as interesting of a departue as one might expect. A song I'd post as well, but the youtube terms of use violation gods are already all over it. You can, however, check it out at their site, and keep up with the endless stream of comments from crying high-schoolers over at The Young Veins' myspace.
