Panic At The Disco have explained that dropping their exclamation mark was key to the band’s reinvention for their second album.

The formerly flamboyant rockers say they are like a "new band" on their new LP ‘Pretty. Odd.’, which is marked by their minor - yet deeply symbolic - name change.

Ryan Ross explains to Reuters, “Dropping the exclamation point was our way of drawing a line in the sand.

"We have a new record and we feel like a new band. We were all tired of it, and we went ahead and got rid of it."

The band‘s close buddy Fall Out Boy‘s Pete Wentz, a tab more lyrically, offers, "This is going to be like when Kiss took of their makeup.”
