Do you think PATD(panic at the disco) is NOT an emo band? I think they are...?

Question

I've seen from the cover of a magazine they say "emo is b****hit, we'll be the next radio head".. duh? but i love the band though.

Answer 1

I don't think they are emo bcuz right now im listening to this song  Panic At The Disco:I want sin not tradegies  n this song dont sound emo bcuz this might happen to u.

Answer 2

i really dont think they are. or at least, theyre not anymore. i think that its just so easy to write about really strong emotions in songs, and since they were so young when they were first thrown into the music world, they were still going through that finding yourself phase when everything you write seems to be slightly depressing. NOT that i dont like there old stuff, because i absolutely love A Fever, but I don think you can judge them as a band by it. If you havent listened to their new album, Pretty.Odd., I highly suggest  you do because you will see that they have all matured and are much more of a band now. theyve moved completely out of whatever emo title they may have had, and now are definately just an alternative rock band.

but thats just my opinion:)
