Rock Sound
"I got sent some of the new Panic! demos the other day," remarked Fall Out Boy bassist and rhetorician Pete Wentz during a recent meeting with the Sound. "I think it will be all over for anyone else in 2008 if this track is picked as the first single. It has the biggest hook I have ever heard." Rock Sound pressed for a listen but Mr. Wentz would not crack and let our ears hear, but if Peter is to be believed it would appear the band are being highly productive as they rehearse away from the spotlight.
"Ryan (Ross, guitar) always likes to keep me guessing or try to freak me out with stuff," Wentz added. "So he will message me to tell me that they have just written an amazing song and I will get excited then he will message me again to tell me it sounds like Aladdin and I will feel kind of bemused. Or last week he messaged me to say they had written a song that makes him think of France. He can say some weird stuff."

Patrick Stump and Pete Wentz were interviewed by Popworld Pup magazine to clear up rumors.
One of the rumors that came up was about Panic! At The Disco.

Rumor - Panic!'s next album is going to make them bigger than you.
Pete: Definitely. I think it's a distinct possibility. I've heard some songs. One was like a film score, then it turns into Beatles 2007. Everybody's going to fall in love with it. They've got a hard road ahead of them because when you have that amount of success in a short amount of time, you have to repeat it or take a total nosedive.
Patrick: When I see Panic! now, it's colossal. I remember the demo and Pete tapped me on the shoulder and said: "What do you think of this?" I said: "Hmm, it's pretty good." I'm a slow burner – it takes me a while. It wasn't until I heard the first draft of the record and I was like, "Oh, right."
Pete: I don't think any of us expected they'd have that success. They're like our kids, it's awesome. But I think they would have gotten to where they've got regardless.
