Panic at the Disco

Las Vegas emo-punk troupe took its name (and a good part of its pop sensibility) from the Smiths.

Biography

Just barely out of high school, emo pop outfit Panic! at the Disco burst out of suburban Las Vegas with their full-length debut, A Fever You Can't Sweat Out. Crafting pop-influenced songs with theatrical touches, quirky techno beats, and perceptive lyrics, Panic! at the Disco initially posted some demos online and caught the attention of Decaydance, the Fueled by Ramen imprint headed by Fall Out Boy's Pete Wentz. Even though the band had yet to play a live show, they became the first band signed to the label, which issued A Fever in September 2005. ~ Corey Apar
