While bands from the mid-’00s emo boom quickly faded from the spotlight, Panic! at the Disco’s following has only grown over the last decade, despite a series of lineup changes and defections that left singer Brendon Urie its only original member. Like Fall Out Boy, the band has prospered largely by looking beyond emo and pop-punk. The group’s 2016 album Death of a Bachelor dove head first into contemporary electronic styles, while drawing liberally from pop and hip-hop as well. Those stylistic leaps paid dividends for the band: It became their first number one album and earned them a Grammy nomination for Best Rock Album. Last year’s Pray for the Wicked was even more audacious, building on those styles while drawing from the spirit of Broadway, following Urie’s 2017 stint playing the lead in a production of Kinky Boots.
