Panic! At The Disco Tease Return With Cryptic New Website

If there was a cryptic post Olympics, there is no question that Twenty One Pilots would take home the gold, but their label mates Panic! at the Disco are about to give them a run for their money with the release of their new website.

First appearing on fan pages earlier this afternoon, shutupandgotobed.com appears to be a hint that Panic! at the Disco is about to release new music- but in a suspicious and coded way.

Similar to the pages that appeared prior to the release of their last album, Pray For The Wicked, visitors to the site are prompted to input their age range, their desired bed time and their email address. Once they do so, they can submit this information to find out what time they should set an alarm to wake up.

The site would then flip to a new page that reads: “DON’T BE A DIVA IT’S TIME TO BE FREE” followed by “IF YOU’RE GOING TO BED AT (time input on previous page) you need to wake up at:” with a huge block of letter and number combinations in an alarm clock format that flipped every few seconds.

First reading 6!01 (which has been interpreted to be June 1st) and followed six flashes later by V!LV (suspected to be 5:55), the alarm clock message has sent fans spiraling. As for what the 5:55 means? Fans have two theories: 5:55am (or pm) meaning the time of a potential new release or 555 as in angel numbers- signaling that Panic!’s Wicked era is over.

555 is the angel number which is the opposite of the last album’s “wicked“ theme so what if this album will show the “prelude” to the whole trilogy and how he started off as good but became “evil” and what were the things that eventually made him the bad guy +

Additionally fans have been quick to notice that the new website (and update account‘s) icons feature three notable symbols: the sun, the eye, and the moon that were heavily promoted in the Pray For The Wicked era. However instead of appearing in a triangular shape, the symbols now appear in a cloud shape, hinting that there has been a change in how the band will be presenting.

And that’s not even all the site contained.

In addition to the date and time (or number) clues, the site also featured a new clip of frontman Brendon Urie singing the phrase “shut up and go to bed” over a string led melody, which fans could hear if they clicked the “Set An Alarm” button on the second screen.

But all of that being said… neither the official Panic! social media accounts nor Urie’s personal accounts have posted even a single hint at a soon return. In fact, neither have been active on Instagram since mid 2020.

So now with no answers and dozens of possibilities for this June 1st countdown, the main question we have is: how the hell are we supposed to shut up and go to bed when Panic! might make a grand return at any moment?
