A Fever You Can't Sweat Out revealed the state of
pop-
punk/
emo in 2005: it was hip to be self-aware. "Dear studio audience,"
Panic! at the Disco vocalist
Brendon Urie quavers in
"The Only Difference Between Martyrdom and Suicide Is Press Coverage." "I've an announcement to make/It seems the artists these days are not who you think." He goes on to shout out, "Applause! applause!" His lyrics also say he's the narrator, but that's for debate, because later on
Fever Urie hoots about meeting the press and his band being a "wet dream for the webzines," so who was actually worrying about stardom, the narrator or
Panic! at the Disco? With
Fever it was clear that the
MySpace revolution had come full circle -- no longer just a convenient promotional tool, the site had become something to sing about.
