Sibob Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 For those of you who don't know Panic At The Disco, they're a young band that bought out a very intelligent pop album maybe 3 years ago. They unfortunately got labeled as an 'Emo' band (which they hate), and as such, got written off! I think they're pretty good actually, and chose a great song to cover at abbey road First is one of theirs, then 'The Weight' Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat Burrito Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 Got to say they come across as a really nice bunch of guys. The cover is quite good but I've heard better versions in pubs. Perhaps others will disagree but just my view. Still, it must be awesome to play it in Abbey Road. Fair play to them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sibob Posted November 2, 2009 Author Share Posted November 2, 2009 The guitarist and bassist have left now I think lol I just think it's nice to hear a young band do it, and pull it off haha!. I've rarely heard it played in pubs, and when I have, it's been older guys Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wateroftyne Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 Yeah, it's nice, but as Burrito says.. it's a bit pubby. There's a subtlety to that song that usually gets buried under thumping tubs... I wish someone would cover a Band song that isn't The Weight or Dixie.

51m0n Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 They came across really well I thought, definitely a decent job on the cover, not brilliant, but good I thought (esp vocal harmonies). Good to see a band sticking two fingers up at a record company not wanting them to take an opportunity like this (assuming that wasn't all a set piece to camera, you never can tell) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

john_the_bass Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 Listening to it now, I think it's a good version - I don't think it's all that pubby, I think it's more acomplished than that - it's not as good as the original, but I think they've made a good effort.

AdamWoodBass Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 Yeah stick it to the man! Great vid Si! I actually quite liked them when they first came out, very catchy with pretty cool lyrics. It's nice to see that they know the label are trying to push them into the commercial world but they're still trying to persue their own musicality.
