Former Panic! At The Disco Members Create New Band

Lauren Croteau — Wed, 29 Jul 2009 15:07:36 +0000

It’s been about a month since Ryan Ross and Jon Walker decided to leave their old band, Panic! At The Disco, yet they’ve already created their own band, calling themselves the Young Veins. Boy, do they ever move quick!

Ryan Ross reportedlywrote MTV News asking what exactly he and Jon should call themselves. He wrote back to MTV saying, "We’re going with the Young Veins. I hope you’ll check us out."

The duo had thoughts about naming themselves “The Guts” and decided to rethink that, saying it was too punk for their style. So, not only have they shocked us with already coming up with a name for themselves, but if you’ve checked out their MySpace page, they’ve also released their new single, “Change”, shortly after Panic! released their song “New Perspective” on Myspace.

Listen to the song “Change” below. It’s a different from the music Panic! makes. it’s a lot ore retro and a little less pop. Hopefully things work out for them!
