Panic! At the Disco Declares Emo Is Bullshit!

Posted in Bands on October 18, 2006

Is the world crumbling around us? Panic! At the Disco got their panties in a bundle about being called "emo."
Read more Frontman Brendan Uriem had this to say about the genre to NME:

People always try to stereotype us, but we don't fit the emo stereotype.
