Doing another blind review
Disloyal Order of Water Buffaloes: 80
The opening part is mixed for me. I really didn't like the "buzz" line, but the rest is pretty okay. The song overall is pretty alright. Kind of not very different throughout, but at least the tone that it keeps isn't awful. Its not really a song for me, but its not bad.
I Don't Care: 97
Immediately hooked me with the beginning guitar riffs. The beat is extremely catchy. The chorus absolutely slaps. It's extremely ... read more
The Phoenix: 82
Very nice. I already like the vibe this song sets for the album. The chorus is explosive, the violins cutting through the quiet parts of the vocals just fits very nicely. Since I recently got done reviewing AB/AP, I can make the comparison that this sounds like it would fit pretty well in there. This definitely has the more rock inspired feel though. Overall, a pretty decent start.

Stay Frosty Royal Milk Tea:
I actually kind of love this song. It has some really glaring issues. Sometimes the singing doesn't follow the beat and you can definitely tell. But I like the ever-present guitar riffing. The "Eau de resistance" part doesn't really fit in the song, but everything else sounds good. I like it. 88.
The Last of the Real Ones:
The best part of this song is the chorus. Its actually really damn catchy. I said that it was the best part of the album, but that ... read more
The Ballad of Mona Lisa: The song people know from this album. It has the era’s feel for Panic! and it works to set the tone of the album. It has a good beat, well put instrumentals, and Urie’s signature great vocals. 89.
Let’s Kill Tonight: Just damn good. Really good instrumentals and vocals. A beat I like. The chorus is nearly perfect. The lyrics are extremely smooth and fit well with everything. Just really good. 92
Hurricane: First, the lyrics are extremely goofy. That ... read more
