Panic! At The Disco, video of 'The Ballad Of Mona Lisa': steampunk and amusement

Panic! At The Disco burst onto the international scene with their debut, A Fever You Can not Sweat Out, a debut that perhaps the most notable were the names of the cuts appeared impossible in the tracklist, but still not one of the best albums of 2005, it left us a remarkable single, "I Write Sins Not Tragedies', with a video itself was considered the best during the MTV Video Music Awards 2006.

Pretty. Odd. Top notes received criticism, but for many it is no longer considered as another group of aesthetic emo and lack of originality in an era in which for years that punk had already ceased to be the vehicle for venting of angst of an entire generation of youth. Personally, these labels have always seemed a sovereign bullshit, especially when they are charged of so much prejudice.

The third album from Panic! At The Disco, Vices & Virtues not go on sale until 28 March but we can take a look at what will be his first single, 'The Ballad Of Mona Lisa. " Keep in mind that this is the first album that does not include the participation of Ryan Ross, who was responsible for much of the composition, and he left the band, leaving as a duo consisting of singer / guitarist , Brendon Urie and drummer Spencer Smith.

The result is not affected negatively, and would even say that it is better that many of the single that preceded it, but as to title refers not finish it right. 'The Ballad Of Mona Lisa' has no philosophical depth unnecessary, or wearing clothes with greatness or arrogance, but perfectly fulfills its work, to entertain enormously and for a very strong promotional single.

The accompanying video follows the trail of other clips recorded by Panic! At The Disco, an aesthetic rather dark and somewhat grotesque based, this time in the typical features of steampunk. Missing, yes, that clear and transparent after staging a video that manages to become a story and not a display of dolls that try to tell a sequence of events somewhat frayed.
