So, while I am a HUGE fan of My Chemical Romance, and am especially fond of Fall Out Boy, I never really got into Panic at the Disco. They seemed cute enough (if terribly, terribly young), but their music never really grabbed me.
I ... I like the new single. I liked the new single BEFORE I saw the video for it. But the video is all steampunk, with a wake and a vengeful ghost! Some of my favorite flavors of eye candy! (Not to mention that in some sections of the video, the lead singer is done up to look like a baby version of Dave Vanian.) It's almost as if they decided to make a video to catch the attention of all the ElderGoths who've been doing neo-Victorian for years and years. And damn them, it's working.
(This (clicky-link!) is a link to the teaser trailer for the video. The full video is on MTV's site, but I'm not linking to them.)
Did I roll my eyes at all the goggles on top hats? Yes, I did. Did I come close to ::facepalming:: at the sight of all the gears affixed to things? Oh yes. But otherwise, the video is all sorts of fun, and the damn song is catchy.
Help me. I don't need to be enamored of another band from the bandom scene.
