Seemingly out of nowhere (but actually, not really), Brendon Urie has closed the door on Panic! At The Disco. Brendon announced the breakup of what’s ostensibly a solo project (and has been for a while), due to his wife expecting a child.

At least Brendon Urie seems to be approaching this life change with a sense of poise and rationality. And to be fair, Panic! At The Disco was incredibly successful. Debuting in 2005 with A Fever You Can’t Sweat Out, Panic! experienced much success, especially of the chart-topping kind. In fact, “High Hopes” was basically inescapable on pop radio for a couple years, setting records along the way. Their dramatic, theatrical pop-rock sound exploded for a reason, after all.
