Panic! At The Disco Release Short Film ‘The Overture’

Thursday, 10 March 2011 Written by James Conlon


Panic! At The Disco have proved that they are very much back to their old theatrical ways through a new short film entitled ‘The Overture’. The video features extended clips of four new songs from the band’s upcoming LP ‘Vices & Virtues’, scheduled for release on March 28nd in the UK.

The video is not likely to be nominated for an Oscar anytime soon, with lead singer Brendon Urie and drummer Spencer Smith lending their acting talents to the obscure project. The film depicts the two band members recruiting quirky townspeople for a trip, packing their possessions and eventually facing obstructions along the way. The bizarre extended metaphor is the band’s latest offering from ‘Vices & Virtues’ since they released their lead single ‘The Ballad of Mona Lisa’ last month.

‘Vices & Virtues’ is the first full-length release from the band’s two-man line-up of singer Brendon Urie and drummer Spencer Smith after guitarist Ryan Ross and bassist Jon Walker left the band in July 2009.

The band posted the video on their website yesterday, saying: “We're proud to present to you The Overture, a short film directed by our friend Shane Drake featuring clips of four new songs off our upcoming album Vices & Virtues. Hope you enjoy and let us know what you think!”
