Panic! at the Disco is a pop rock/electronica band depending out of Las Vegas, Nevada. The band is made from Brendon Urie (vocals, guitar, keyboard) and his childhood good friend, Spencer Smiths (drums), in conjunction with their schoolmate, Ryan Ross (guitar, keyboard, backing vocals).
To sell their music, the band made contact with Pete Wentz (of Fall Out Boy) with the aid of his LiveJournal website. Impressed with the aid of the band, Wentz personally met with the band and signed them to his imprint label Decaydance. Under the label, the band published their debut album, A Fever You Cant Sweat Out, which would debut at #112 at the Billboard 200 album charts.
Featured in Spin journal as their band of the day in early October 2005, achieving #1 on the MySpace chart, and invariably staying in PureVolumes Top 10 chart, might merely aid grow the bands acceptance. An visual appeal on MTVs TRL on January 17, 2006, at the top-rated of their music video for I Write Sins Not Tragedies, also helped garner the band plenty publicity.
To date, the bands 2005 debut album, A Fever you Cant Sweat Out has bought over 750,000 units. The band is lately headlining a North American summer time top selling travel with The Dresden Dolls and The Hush Sound, a band also signed to Decaydance.
