Great new addition to the P!atD catalog!
Sounds like a continuation of the last album, "Too Weird to Live, Too Rare to Die", but with a dash of Frank Sinatra moments thrown in. Overall, the album is great. Personally, "Emperor's New Clothes" and "The Good, the Bad and the Dirty" are the tracks on the album. The only downside is that the album's length feels a bit short. At roughly 36 mins, it leaves you wanting more.

Victorious!
There's something about Brendon Urie's voice that just gives me life. This record comes a little over 2 years since the release of "Too Weird To Live, Too Rare To Die!" and as a Panic! fan I desperately needed this. Such a great album. It's GOOD, it's BAD (but in a good way), and it's DIRTY! Fans rejoice because our boys are back and they are definitely here to stay.

Solo act...who care's, it's great!
I have been following this band for years, kind of the doppelganger to Fall Out Boy ( and both bands are BFF's in real life). It's a shame it's just down to one guy...Brendon Urie, but the album is awesome none-the-less. My only gripe is that he released about half the songs early off the album, so there were only about 5 undiscovered songs to listen to.

You will not regret this purchase
This album is incredible. Death of a bachelor is Brendon Uries first solo album and he absolutely kills it. In this album you can really feel that Brendon put a lot of his own life into this album. Each song in intricate and personal and is catchy in it's own way and you can hear the Frank Sinatra inspiration. Bravo Brendon, bravo.

It's alright
In short, Death of A Bachelor takes Brendon Urie's decent songwriting skills and trades them for amazing vocals. He sounds brilliant; this is probably one of the best Panic! albums vocal wise, and a lot of the songs have diversity within the vocals. He can hit extremely high notes; be eccentric and energetic, but also soften his tone, and be low and patient. The lyrics on these tracks are kind of lackluster. The second track is recycled binge-drug-pop garbage. The last track, while one of my favorites, sounds sometimes like he's just trying to find words to rhyme with, and running with his first match. The singles on this album are great. They're sounding like a mix of Panic!'s old and newer stuff. Most of the time the instrumentals are organic, so we're hearing buzzing guitars and live drums; it's great. Instrumentally this album is wonderful. In all, this album is a good one. It's decent. It's not amazing. I feel like Brendon can do better lyrically, but its a really good step in the right direction.
