The album's title track premiered exclusively on Apple Music's Beats 1 Radio where Urie described "Death of A Bachelor" as, "It's like some Beyoncé beats with some Sinatra vocals. It's really crazy... [Sinatra's] music has been a major player in the soundtrack of my life. So it's only right that I return the favor and/or pay it forward."
DEATH OF A BACHELOR is the follow up album toTOO WEIRD TO LIVE, TOO RARE TO DIE!which made a top 2 debut on the SoundScan/Billboard 200 upon its 2013 release. The album wasfueled by the RIAA gold certified single, "Miss Jackson (Feat. Lolo)," and quickly proved a top 10 favorite at Modern Rock radio outlets nationwide. In addition, the song's companion video - featuring actress Katrina Bowden (30 Rock) - scored major rotation at MTV2, mtvU, FUSE, and Logo's "NewNowNext," while earning close to 25 million views.
Released in 2005, Panic! At The Disco's double platinum-certified debut, A FEVER YOU CAN'T SWEAT OUT remains one of the biggest selling debuts in Fueled By Ramen history. Singles like the 2x-platinum smash, "I Write Sins Not Tragedies," earned the band international acclamation and a fervent fan following around the globe, also receiving a number of major honors including multiple Grammy® nominations and the prestigious MTV Video Music Awards "Video of the Year" prize for the "I Write Sins Not Tragedies" video.
Panic! At The Disco's acclaimed second album, PRETTY. ODD. arrived in 2008, debuting at #2 on SoundScan/Billboard 200 album chart upon its initial release. The album's popular success was matched by a wave of critical applause, with NME declaring it "a victory for artistic ambition over cynical careerism, one of the feel-good psych-pop albums of the year." They returned three years later with VICES & VIRTUES. The album - which features, "The Ballad of Mona Lisa" and "Ready To Go (Get Me Out Of My Mind)" - made a spectacular chart entry upon its March 2011 release, entering the SoundScan/Billboard 200 at #7, while also coming in at #2 on SoundScan's "Alternative Albums" chart.
