Ryan Ross and Jon Walker's New Band: The Young Veins

The half of Panic! at the Disco that re-embraced the exclamation and pedaled backwards a bit as far as progression released "A New Perspective" today. Not to be upstaged (or harrassed via various social networks), the departed 50% of Panic announced their band name, The Young Veins, and put up a song on their MySpace.

Are you ready for this? "Change" is the name of the song, and little gossipy bees are suugesting the tune was penned for a certain ex-gf.

A super short blog on the account states that they are "currently in the studio" finishing up their first album. I guess these hippy tracks have been burgeoning to blossom from the soul of RyRo for awile now, eh?



What do you think of the track? Not gonna lie, I was surprised that it didn't quite sit well with me—I'm a bigger fan of Pretty Odd than I am of Fever, but this feels too retro to me. Is that even the right word? I don't know. I just feel like there was shag carpeting, putridly colored daisy wall appliques and ganja involved in the creation of "Change."

But I will follow Ryan and J-Walk to this album release because the alertnate version of "Behind The Sea" makes for a precious lullaby and I WANT MORE OF THAT.

Thoughts?

Before I listened to either track I said I wasn't going to compare them BUT it was kinda impossible not to compare them you know? I think I may be in the minority when saying I absolutely love The Young Veins! I like A New Perspective but I love Changes. I'm a huge fan of Ryan's voice, I personally prefer his voice over Brendon's voice.

I love Behind The Sea with such passion. I think that Change is just... okay. I wanna listen to more of their songs to officially judge if I like what they're doing or not.

No. Just no. I'm sorry but this song really sucks balls.
I think I'm just used to hearing Brendon's voice. This song won't grow on me.

I agree with you, it does sound a bit retro... But it's not too bad, so I'll keep listening and see :]

I love TYV and P!ATD the same way and always will.

I feel that change has basically been a beatles song, with new lyrics put to it. I love the beatles, but I don't think they need to be reinvented. I don't think I'll be following this group, but I wish them the best.

Am I the only one who thought of "Chain of Fools" at the end of Change where it goes "Change Change Change!"?

Pretty Odd is good, but I like AFYCSO better. I don't really know if I like the song.. It reminds me alot of The Beatles. I love them. I think that we don't need another Beatles though.

You have a typo. By "ex-gf," I can only assume you mean "ex-BF."

:D

I'm with you on this.

It sounds so... weird. :S

It's not as bad as I thought it'd be. I'm an "AFYCSO" fan myself.
However, the thing that really bugged me is that they said the word 'change' at least thirty times in the two and a half minute song.

I like it. But it sounds to much like the Beatles for my taste.
I think it might be better with a different singer, nothing personal, but Ryan's voice has no life in it.

I am loving both of these songs! :]
