DCD2/Fueled by RamenPanic! at the Disco is back with new music. The band has released "Hallelujah," their first new song in two years. You can listen to "Hallelujah" now on SoundCloud.com.
"Hallelujah" is also Panic's first new song since founding drummer Spencer Smith announced he was officially leaving the band. Frontman Brendon Urie is the only original Panic! member left still in the band.
"As I begin what feels like a new chapter of my life, I’m filled with immense excitement and a fresh sense of hope," Urie writes on his band's website. "I’ve seen this band through every phase, every change, every hardship. And yet my appreciation and love grows with every breath."
"So I lift my arms in praise of your greatness," he continues. "YOU are great. YOU are beautiful. YOU are talented, and smart, and kind, and loving, and generous, and simply amazing. And you make me want to scream "HALLELUJAH!" from the top of my lungs with every bit of fervor and strength I possess. And I invite you to join me as you have over and over again."
Panic! will perform "Hallelujah" at tonight's Shorty Awards, which celebrate the best in social media. The event will be streamed live at ShortyAwards.com.
Panic! is working on their currently untitled fifth studio album.
