>>67948>Fueled by RamenI was just thinking this earlier today–back then I knew that if a band were associated with Fueled by Ramen I'd probably love it. I'm so glad I was a teen back in 2005; there was a lot of good media, I was lucky enough to have spare cash to fund my obsessions, and social media wasn't so big so I didn't make an immortal fool of myself in public. Older music from a decade ago is just so nostalgic for me.
>>67949I am on a huge Panic! kick right now, but like you I prefer older Panic! Pretty. Odd. was my favorite album.
My taste in music has greatly changed since most bands in bandom came out. I've been having a nice walk down memory lane since I saw anons mentioning many of the bands in this thread about a month ago. It's been interesting to see how lineups have changed and which groups are still around… I hadn't realized MCR was gone and Panic!, too, in all but name.

I think Mike gets overlooked because William is really pretty and has a very 'look at me!' personality. Mike is more reserved and shy. He can definitely get wild with his bandmates and friends, but most interviews, he is really shy. He even has this gesture where he is constantly touching and rubbing his arm when he's nervous.

Bands like FOB and MCR tend to acknowledge fanfics about them and encourage their fans to keep writing but that's it. Brendon lost his temper and it was pathetic to watch.

I remember someone asking Gerard about his gender identity recently on Twitter and he said he identifies as a man, he just has feminine traits and doesn't dislike them. I find it more disgusting when people try to force a gender on someone like when people try and force Trans!Gerard as if it's reality or using "she" pronouns.

I don't care if I sound like an old elitist or whatever, but I went to a show recently with Frank iero of My chem in his new band and more than half the audience had Xs on their hands meaning they were under 21 and pretty sure more were 18 and under. It was filled with kids who had this "I'm better than you" arrogance about them and thought they were the biggest MCR. A few people even straight up went to the show in Black Parade cosplay which is massively disrespectful imo. I mean, Frank was a huge part of MCR, but that wasn't an MCR concert.
Also, I've seen the freaks who want to write Panic! and MCR as trans people. I want to throat punch each and every one of them. They don't know the line between fantasy and reality. Whether Ryan and Brendon dated irl is their business and irrelevant. I hate new bandom.

Even in Cobra Starship they talk about fics. I think Alex was only like "yeah, I don't mind if write about me, but do I have to be bottom?" which was pretty amusing.
Trans Gerard is literally retarded. He's stated before that he doesn't really believe in gender and he does see himself way more feminine than masculine, but that was it. It's like god for fucking bid Gerard just wants to be more girly than masculine. It's obvious in his gestures, hair, clothes, etc, but he has never once said he was trans or felt trans.

Re: concerts: I just cannot stand being in the pit anymore. Last time I went to a general admission concert one of my friends was knocked in the head by a mosher, another was legit humped by this weird guy twice her size who kept putting his arms around her, and we had a hell of a time fighting our way out of the crowd when we had had enough. Can't enjoy the music if you feel like you're fighting for survival.

>>68295I think some retarded fans asked him about it on periscope when he doing it live in June or July 2015, but he didn't have to go off on the writer, which he did. It's fanfiction and he should have just ignored it or acknowledge it exists and nothing more, but he totally went savage and it was disheartening to watch. I am a Ryan and Spencer fan, but Brendon used to be a sweetheart and I honestly feel like he's changed a lot in the last 5 years especially. He's become a typical dudebro from LA and it's sad to me.
I will always love innocent and pure Brendon from the Fever era of Panic.

Brendon you're right about. He was adorable until Vices, but he's slowly become a real dick the past years. Did you see him go at that guy on Twitter who made a simple video talking about current Panic!'s problems? The guy didn't insult anyone or anything, he made serious valid points.

I was waiting outside the venue for 7 hours before doors opened and I saw him come in and out of his trailer a few times. He always smiled and waved to the people waiting outside.

I know it's not the same thing, but imagine the girl who write that fic basically had someone she probably used to look up publically humiliate her.It's on Youtube now, so it's basically on the net forever. The fact that Brendon treats his fans this way, trying to be an edgelord is really repulsive and it has honestly made me lose all respect for him. I only really listened to Panic up until the Virtues and Vices album. After that Brendon became less and less likable as a person.
Thank you for showing this to me, anon. It sucks a lot, but I'd much rather know the truth than remain ignorant in the dark. Brendon Urie is no longer the singer and person I used to admire all those years ago.

Speaking of age, even earlier in 2015 when I went to that free earth day concert that FOB performed at, I saw kids that were about 10 wearing FOB shirts. I can't imagine someone so young listening to their music considering how often it contains sexual themes

>>70423That is the reason.
Back in 2007 during the PR tour Frank and Gerard use to kiss and hump and all sorts of shit on stage. This led to a lot of people thinking Frerard was real and that's why G broke up with Eliza Cuts (his gf before Lyn-z). One night they had a small "fight" (not even sure if it was one, you can barely tell) and then a few days after Gerard married Lyn-z only after dating her for a a few months.
Some people think G married Lyn-z out of some sort of spite in relation to the on stage "fight" he had with Frank. The whole thing makes no sense when you think about it, Gerard even came out about a few months after the full on kiss he had with Frank and said it was just for show.
As to Frank and G's current relationship they're obviously on good terms. Frank donated to the stream last night and G went to Frank's show in LA with a bunch of friends (including Ray and Mikey). Not to mention Gerard went on to talk about how someone apologized for wearing Frank merch or something he said it wasn't a big deal and he hates when people assume shit.

>>70423It was a little bit of both. Frank was one of the few people who really helped Gerard through his addiction. You can see it through out all of LOTMS when he's really in the lowest points of his life.
Frank and Gee got really close during Bullets era but during Projekt Revolution (2007 summer) Frank got his long time fiance pregnant and then married her. This caused a lot of tension and they got into a skirmish on stage. (You can youtube the fight during Projekt revolution. )
They were touring with MSi with Lyn-Z as the bassist, so her and Gerard has a small but for a few months. Directly after the fight (i've heard it was a week and some say it was only 4-5 days) Gerard proposed to Lyn-Z and got married backstage during the tour. Frank and none of the other MCR were even invited. Mikey was sick and they had a temp bassist at the time, so Mikey wasn't even there to stop any of this.
After Lyn-Z got pregnant and gave birth to their daughter, Gerard got depressed AGAIN and began to drink heavily once more. That's when he decided to break up MCR to try to be with his family, but a lot say PR2007 in general was the defining moment when MCR changed forever as a band. You can even see the tension in the beginning of Danger Days, even though Frank and Gee did make up later and are friends now.
It makes me sad, really.

>>70460I apologize it's it a little jumbled. I'm sleep deprived and terrible with words half the time, however this is everything from the top of my head in the last year I really sat down and researched more about why MCR went south after Black Parade era.
Frank and Gerard were best friends and even more so. You can see so much evidence they weren't just 'stage gay.' And it sucks since it seems Gerard really broke down during 2007 after the fight and Frank went into a depression himself. During 2008/2009, he really ballooned up and got fat. And both him and Gerard wrote cryptic shit on their twitter accounts.
Mainly, Gerard rushing into marriage and not even inviting his own little brother is a red flag imo. Mikey wasn't on the PR tour because he was either sick or in rehab at the time, so they got a temp bassist: Mike cortez. It says on wiki Mikey wasnt there because he just got married, however before Mikey got married, he fell into a deep depression (during the recording of BP) where he needed to see three therapists and had a cocaine habit, so… (tbh I think Mikey's wife is sleazy as hell, but that's another story.)
TLDR; Gee rushed into marriage, which was something that no one saw coming and he never invited any MCR members, including his bro.
Gee used the marriage as an escape route.

>TL;DR: Gerard and Frank are fine and on great terms.That's just like, your opinion, man.
I love Lyn-Z and I think that Gee and Frank are both wonderful fathers and husbands, and I also think there was a lot of tension building up to the break up of them band before it happened. Every one of them was struggling with some aspect of being in MCR, and both Gerard and Mikey were struggling with some severe addiction problems. I don't think they could have kept MCR going in the state they were all in. Tbh, no matter how sad the break up is and no matter how much I wish they would get back together, I know that they did what they felt was right for them and I'm not going to be angry at them about it.
However, I do firmly believe that there was more going on with Gerard and Frank than they both admitted. Call me a fan girl if you want, but their relationship wasn't staged. You can't fake the way they look at each other.
>>70461>>70458And I have discussed this a lot, along with another person. Watched every interview we could. And I agree with anon that there was something more and they are still hurting because of it. And I think that their unresolved issues was part of the reason why MCR broke up.
I mean, I don't know the full story. There are only 2 people in the world who do. So this is, I suppose, speculation on my account. But I still think there is something more to their relationship with each other than meets the eye.
I think they still care about each other a lot. Seeing as Gee did go to The Cellabration show in LA, and Frank donated almost $2,000 to the stream two nights ago (which meant he had to have been watching some of it.) I mean, there's no denying they are friendly. But still, I sense some bitterness. Reading the lyrics to Frank's newest album really gave me a lot of feels. I'd bet you at least one of those songs is about Gerard.
Anyway, that's my two cents. I could be wrong. Like I said before.. Only two people know what really happened. And they aren't gonna tell.
(I have a lot of really cute pictures of Frank and Gee from the bullets era on my laptop, but I'm on the road right now, so have this instead. Happy Valentines Day.)

And, I'm the anon who posts both of these
>>70461>>70458I do firmly believe as someone who got into the band around 2004 that Frank and Gerard definitely had something way more than simple fanservice. Like you said, the way they looked at each other, anyone who is very good at reading body language can put two and two together. I honestly do also believe that they want their friendship to work out very much, but there is a longing and bitterness still attached to the fact they are both married with kids now and their relationship just did not work, even though it must have been intense and said.
Like you stated, only Frank and Gerard know the truth and they aren't telling. Gerard's addiction and Mikey's depression would have eventually ended MCR unfortunately. Just looks like it ended soon than later.
And the worst part for me is, even as a long time fan who desperately wants them to get back together, they probably won't even sound how we all want them to.

I'm not sure if I would have a problem with any music they made if they ever got back together (here's to hoping for 2019!) I mean, I'm a big fan of everything they have done outside of MCR, and a big fan of everything they did in it as well. So I'm not really hard to please, I guess, haha.

>>70550Agreed, it all seems too rushed. I'm not going to lie, the whole post-hiatus thing has been. They've done 2 albums, an EP, a remix album, and God knows how many collabs. It makes me sad. I know they were rushed as fuck pre-hiatus, too, but at least it was good… maybe it's a preference thing.
AB/AP was bad, no guitars, which is weird considering there's 2 guitar players. The title track in itself genuinely hurts my ears.
Previous anon said that a lot of people bitch about new FOB, but it just doesn't feel as genuine. Folie was the last album I can say I constantly enjoy listening to. It felt so real, I remember when it came out. The whole era was fun, despite the backlash. Anyone remember the CitizensFOB mixtape?

>>72670He posted a Twitlonger a while ago explaining he never left Alicia for anyone, they were separated in private and they hadn't announced it to anyone. Which I guess would explain why Lyn-Z went off on Mikey when the whole thing broke out.
That model though, Sarah Em, was pure garbage. When she and Mikey split in early 2014 I remember she made a bunch teenager level tweets about how he was a coward and spread some pretty personal shit, pic related.
Next thing you know Mikey reveals he's in rehab and tried to kill himself shortly after the break up with Sarah Em. Gerard's song "Brother" is actually about Mikey's attempted suicide, It's quite sad.
Hell, if you wanna really see the whole thing detail for nasty detail there's this blog:

>>70458>>70461>>70521>>70539Basically, some of us speculate that apart from the other issues in the band, Frank and Gerard may have had a relationship with each other before they both got married and had kids. And they had a pretty huge fight on stage during Projkt Revolution in 2007, right before Gee married Lyn-Z after knowing her for like, four months. (Same concert where Frank sang "Lie to me" instead of "Trust me" during I'm Not Okay, is that right?) And maybe there's still some bitterness and sadness there because it didn't work out, and maybe they still have some sort of feelings toward each other. But, this is speculation on the part of the fans (as they've never confirmed anything officially.)
Yeah dude, Frank is a sweetheart from the ground up. He's got a heart of gold. And Gerard's still a nerd who plays D&D in his kitchen at 2 in the morning.

>>73449Haha me too, I remember watching LOTMS in middle school thinking they were the coolest people ever. I forgot about it until maybe a year ago and rewatched it after focusing only own life for so long and cried haha. Honestly thank god they tried to protect and stay true to their image of being the "talented underdog/outcast" band, it incidentally played such a huge role in me growing up not hating myself for being a weirdo.
Except for Mikey now, I can't imagine younger fans getting into them and seeing this joker. I think the glasses came off and he didn't want to be the dorky little brother anymore. That and from my own experiences coke destroys anything good about a person.

It was super fucked up that Mikey got to be so publicly obnoxious about how "happy" he was with his young girlfriend while Alicia got humiliated.

>>73772The younger fans are literal cancer. Even to this day, you can find old tumblr entries from when Mikey first cheated on Alicia with Sarah and fans were DEFENDING HIM, saying it wasn't our business to judge because he was an 'adult.'
In my experience, anyone who speaks this way is automatically a damn child. He cheated on his wife of 7 years. He got engaged to a teenager a week after doing a family x-mas dinner. Mikey is scum and even if I liked him during MCR, it doesn't make him a good person. He cheated and it went public. It doesn't matter if he's an adult or not. I'm an adult too, but if I go around murdering in private, is that really my business?
He even got a new tattoo over his forever one after meeting Sarah, then covered it up AGAIN after their engagement fell through.
His younger fans are the worst and still defend Sarah over Alicia, saying Sarah is a good person, etc. It boogles my mind.

>>74505Yeah the younger fans are pretty fucking gross, I think it's the time their growing up in where divorce is just "expected" and kids are trying to be edgy by being as disconnected as they can be to the point that they're deeply scared of abandonment from being emotionally stunted. I've read fans being like "lol look at Alicia why would''t he cheat she was probably a bitch".
His secret instagram and Sarah's go waaaay back, Alicia got really fucked over. Luckily on instagram she seems to be rolling with the punches, but still.
>>74558ia, even if he respectfully separated it's in the poorest of taste to handle it the way he did. I definitely noticed her constantly smirking, it's so fucking vile. I was actually p happy he fucked her over since this girl was a willing accomplice to adultery, and she was dumb as shit with nothing to offer the world besides starving herself to be a model. And now Mikey is engaged to another woman, but she looks like an insufferable woman who wants to sell you Shakeology so that's always a good laugh.
Pic related bc I'm a player hater. I think he doesn't want to be alone because his new girl is the style ambassador for Old Navy, and all these basic women pictured all look related. Maybe she's dating him to get to Mumford & Sons or pretends he's Dave Matthews when they're fucking I don't even know I don't relate to women that look like they get excited to go to Starbucks.
I was their fan since Revenge came out, which is clearly a theme I enjoy haha. Mikey being so lame makes me appreciate the others even more by contrast.

At least Alicia was involved with music, being a merch table person and guitar tech. Sarah was a creepy fangirl who looked like a fish (and a 30 something year old man dating a teenager is some telling signs of mid-life crisis.)
Kristen looks like some basic bitch who sits around drinking starbucks, wearing yoga pants. Then again, Mikey seems boring as fuck outside MCR. All of his IG and twitter posts are about sports. He even got a nose ring when he was dating Sarah.

>>74799I really just think it's a combination of Mikey being a cokehead and now living in LA, probably also why he settled for his current gf/wife because she's so harmless. Addiction runs in their family, he's probably having a really difficult time balancing his sobriety and personal life post-MCR break up. I don't think he's doing anything with his life now, and to be honest he was the bassist and learned for his brother so I doubt he has anything else to contribute to the world now.
I rehash it too honestly :/ He's only human, but no matter who you are what he did is unforgivable, it just makes it worse given the context. It sucks that he didn't make a statement given his age and how black and white adultery is, but whatever. It's not like anyone wants to fuck with him now haha.
I never lurked their social media past Myspace (lol) because I'm afraid of people judging me for my past fangirl ways. But I just looked up Frank's instagram and oh my god adorable is an understatement, he's always been someone who seemed amazing but I think now having kids he's like iconic as a human.

Hey everyone– just a warning, but there appears there is some autistic farmer on the warpath against all things MCR related. They get their fee fees hurt by this band, and subsequently they are reporting anyone who posts MCR gifs or pictures. I wouldn't be surprised if they reported this thread as well.

Was anyone else ever a fan of Steam Powered Giraffe at one point?
I used to be a huge fan, but they fell apart and went downhill so fast.
I have a lot of beef with them but I don't know where to start and don't want to ramble if no one else cares.
Only two of the original members are still in it, they replaced the third robot with their drummer and the best robot character had a gender change and the whole feel of the act has changed because of it. I was fine with the gender change at first because the plan was to just change the gender and keep the character the same, but that didn't last long.
There's been a lot of drama within this bandom due to social justice warriors and the band making shitty decision after shitty decision. What started out as a lighthearted steampunk band has turned into a wannabe childrens' act with shitty music and cringe worthy performances.

Brendon isn't a terrible writer, but he's nowhere near as good as Ryan was.
Honestly, Panic should have just broken up after Vices. The new album (DOAB) is shit aside from maybe…one song? It feels like it was written just to get on the radio and no real thought was put into it. I'm not a musician, but it feels cheap and hollow to me.

Brendon knows he can use the Panic name for points and coverage and all the new fans will follow him blindly. I didn't get into Panic until the Pretty Odd era, however A Fever You Can't Sweat Out will always be the peak/golden time for them imo. The writing was new, raw, however it worked so damn well for them.
Brendon has a beautiful voice still, but between his twitter, instagram and periscoping, he's basically a media slut now who lives off attention from the new, younger fans who weren't even into Panic until way after Vices era.
Also, fuck him for ever thinking this hair looked good. Brendon looks so gorgeous with longer/shaggy hair. This haircut is an abomination. No. 98442

>>98432This this so much this. I honestly think Brendon doesn't care about the actual music anymore, he just cares about getting shit out there as fast as he can so it can get popular. No substance. I mean fucking hell, all of the DOAB videos came out within barely months of each other. It all felt so forcibly shitted out.
As for Dallon that dude deserve soooooooooo much better than being a bassist for a band that doesn't even appreciate him. Dallon is actually an amazing song writer (see The Brobecks) and he has a great singing voice as well, but Brendon's head is so up his own. I think Dallon said one time that he was basically told he doesn't have anything to offer to the band is can't contribute to writing.
It's quite sad to see Brendon go from a quiet guy who was just out there having a great time to being an egotistical dick.

>>98442I honestly think that without Ryan's writing, Brendon would still have been singing for tips at the Smoothie hut. He has a beautiful voice with a decent range, but his personality went from being a super cute ex-mormon going out into the world for the first time to an over-inflated dickhead.
I used to want to give Brendon the benefit of the doubt, but I also heard the whole speech he gave about Dallon being a member without nothing musical to contribute to the band. Does Brendon just write all the songs now? At least in Vices & Virtues, you could hear the Fever influence with him and Spencer Smith. Now it's all Brendon and it sounds like your generic LA trash pop radio music. I feel bad that I never went to see Panic during Fever era or even Vices era. They really peaked after that third album.

Issues, anyone?
They used to be a joke to me, all that bizarre time signature crunkcore nonsense, but after 'Headspace' I'm actually listening to them seriously.
On the other hand I'm getting a bit disappointed with Bring Me lately, I thought Sempiternal was a real sweet spot, but they just keep getting increasingly soft. Fair play to them to keep changing up their style and I'm still listening to the new stuff, but if it goes any further then SwS will be heavier than they are.
>>103992I hadn't even thought it could be a merch drive. That would be depressing.

>>104023I have nothing to contribute, but I love that you mentioned issues. I feel like no one's taking them seriously.
>hurdur Bieber voice XD>hurdur rap XDAs for bmth and sws, I'm a nostalgia emofag and I don't like the softer sounds. James Dean era sws, best era sws. Same with mcr, I'm going to get hate for this, but I have a hard time listening to DD. I'd still love a reunion though.

>>104023I was introduced to them through the Black Diamonds EP which I thought was terrible and like any other generic metalcore band, but their self-titled album warmed me up to them a little bit and I thought Headspace was a great album. Plus, Sky is an amazing bassist and from what I've seen, they're all pretty good live.
I haven't been into BMTH since Sempiternal came out, Antivist and House Of Wolves are the only songs on that album I can stand. I gave That's The Spirit! a listen and I honestly thought it was bad in just every way. And the drama surrounding them and the stories I've heard of them being dicks to people for no reason is enough to put me off them. When Jona from I Killed The Prom Queen was still in the band was their peak quality-wise.
>>104027Me too, for SWS and MCR. I've always though Danger Days was overrated because it was their last real album and as a stand alone album, it didn't even compare to The Black Parade and Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge.
All of these artists who are considered emo now like Twenty One Pilots and Halsey make me depressed, like there's nothing about them really has any trace of what emo used to be. I guess the genre changed with time, but fuck, it's sad to see gendervoid foxkin kids say that they're emo because they like mainstream artists.
Is there anyone who listens to Nortlane in this thread? What do you think of Marcus and Node? I actually liked the album and there's some catchy easily replayable songs like Rot and I like Marcus' clean vocals more than Adrian's but I still think Adrian was a better performer live and brought a certain irreplaceable energy to the band.

>>97707I didn't have the full story and now I'm sad as fuck :( I knew there was beef with jon but I didn't know about what.
They even deleted Ju Ju Magic which i think was a Sprague's song? or they were just mad. oh well.
and the bunny being trans thing really fucked up the band even more, sadly.
man now this is depressing

>>104090Me too, honestly. I figured it wouldn't be something so extravagant as a reunion tour like some people were gunning for, but more than 'reissue of TBP with demos and some new shirts' would've been nice. Oh well.
It is good they nipped the rumours in the bud, though. I can't imagine how apeshit everyone would've gone in September if they'd still been holding out for more.

>>93766I thought he had a window of hotness around TBP but that seems to be over now.
>>104076Damn, that's what I suspected sadly. They gave a date only about 2 months ahead and it didn't seem likely that they would have an album put together or a tour ready to go in that time frame.

>>104076Yeah, but why did they create a whole new logo for it? Really pisses me off. Like, they did a nice vinyl release of Revenge and never made a huge deal other than basic info on their twitter page.
They made this vague as hell 30 second flag clip with the first few notes of Black Parade and random date. They knew what they were doing. A lot of fans are pissed off now. I certainly won't be buying any reissue shit they're leasing. They got nerve, even putting out a new shirt design. It's playing on the fans who still had hope for some kind of reunion tour like The Academy did last year.
>>104146Glad they nipped it in the bud early as well, but I still can't help but feel very disappointed and upset.
Gif are my feelings towards the MCR site managers and merch team.

>>111119Honestly, I still listen to MCR, so I was hyped for the 10th anniversary of the Black Parade, hanging on to a thread of hope there would be a reunion tour, but… sucks man. Feels bad there's just a horrid cover album no one asked for and more money fishing from the record company.
I still listen to Panic!, especially the first two albums. I might even go to the Death of a Bachelor tour next year, even though I'm wondering what the set list will be.
I really want Brendon to retire the song 'I write Sins.' He's been singing it for what– 11 years now?
No. 111353
>>98442I know this post is months old, however has anyone seen the new video that just came out for LA Devotee?? Brendon got obsessed with the show Stranger Things and basically stole the kid who plays Will Byers for views.
I'm truly hoping the next new set of songs/next album Brendon releases will be closer to Vices & Virtues or Fever because everything after the third album is really not great.

>>111353This.
Don't get me wrong the latest album has grown on me like herpes but the one before was godawful. You know you're in trouble when This is Gospel is the best song you have to offer.
