preview: panic at the disco on tour / too weird to live too rare to die
Panic! at the Disco’s fourth albums opens with a fuzzy, electronic plea; it sounds nothing like anything else they’ve ever done, and then it explodes into Brendon Urie’s unmistakeable voice and a chorus crying that this is the beat of my heart. Urie lets it all out on the line if you love me, let…
a year in review
