WASHINGTON, Dec. 24 (UPI) — Two months after Panic! At the Disco announced their latest album, Death Of A Bachelor, the Las Vegas-born band released the official video to its title track.
The black and white clip, featuring only the band’s lead singer Brendon Urie dressed in a classic suit, was uploaded to YouTube Thursday just in time for Christmas.
In “Death Of A Bachelor,” Urie sings about falling in love with someone who makes it worth changing his life for. With lyrics like “The death of a bachelor/seems so fitting for/happily ever after/how could I ask for more?” the song breaks away from the band’s alt-punk characteristic and delves into a more classic sound.
Panic! At the Disco’s next album, their first since 2013’s Too Weird to Live, Too Rare to Die!, will drop Jan. 15.
“When I was a little kid and heard I song I liked on tv, I would jump up and run to the piano to try and figure it out by ear,” Urie wrote in the official announcement on Facebook in October. “When I was 10 or 11, I built myself a drum kit in the garage made out of empty laundry detergent buckets, old lawn chairs, paint cans, and old trash cans…I jumped between all of these instruments constantly to satisfy the ideas I heard in my head.”
“Death Of A Bachelor is in honor of those times I spent alone as a kid,” he continued. “This album is me. Running to the piano. Building a drum kit. Strumming a guitar. Some things never change.”
