Never has punctuation caused so much furore among the emo kids of the world as

when Panic at the Disco! renamed themselves as the blink-and-you’ll- miss-it Panic at the Disco (sansl). A startling turn around for the theatrical emo rockers signed to Fall Out Boy’s Decaydance record label with a nice sideline in being bottled at rock festivals. You can't have escaped the ubiquitous nature of their current single ‘Nine in the Afternoon‘, a slice of infuriatingly catchy 80$ flavoured pop rock, which those sensitive emo kids just can’t get enough of.
