Welcome to Gaia! ::

yeah it's out. Who bout theirs?

Mine came on the 24th, I like it more and more as I listen to it- so thats good cause I already bought tickets for the concert in my area about two months ago.

i knw people are going to give me a lot of crap about this but after hearing Pretty.Odd. I think the change in sound is too drastic and I know after being addicted to fall out boy's albums From Under the Cork Tree and Take This To Your Grave then listening to Infinity on High that when a band or any musician tries out a new sound it takes some getting used to.

I have to say though that I did not like the album as much as I thought I would. They lost their edge on this one. They still have a great sound just not for them. Like you know how red is darker than orange? Well A Fever You Can't Sweat Out has a red cover as Pretty. Odd. has orange on it. In other words Pretty. Odd. is not as dark as AFYCSO. I like dark. I like the whole sideshow carnival act theme. Right now it's a bit past "Nine in the Afternoon"

I do like the album. I don't love it, though. It makes me feel like I'm in the sixties when the Beatles were around and everything was 'groovy'. Heck, people have even went as far, on iTunes, to claim they stole some of the Beatles' beat. While I have to admit, I do like some of the songs, I don't like all of them and I doubt I will adapt to all of the songs as I did on A Fever You Can't Sweat Out. Now, sure, Panic is happy. That's great and wonderful, but I loved the weirdness of A Fever You Can't Sweat Out, and I am wondering what is going to happen when they tour. For some reason, this album reminded me of Alice in Wonderland or Through the Looking Glass sorta theme, and while that's fine and dandy, people will consider Panic posers. They will make obnoxious and evil comments and they will make fun of them. This album was a huge risk for them, and I commend them for taking it, although I really wish they were just a little more alternative, and less poppy. My grandma even liked this albumand wants to borrow it to put it on her iPod. sweatdrop confused

i didnt really like it at all. i borrowed pretty.odd. from a friend and the sounded soo different. if you compare it to the beatles of something, they sound the same. i was like what happened to the circusy theme? i do think they changed. i think that when people were calling them emo and stuff, they just got tired of it and changed. i dont know, put when it had the puzzles of stuff.. i was so excited. but then when pretty.odd came out, i was dissapointed.
