"Too Weird to Live, Too Rare to Die! never settles too deeply into just one sound. Tracks like "Nicotine" and "Collar Full" even retain much of the anthemic rock bombast of the band's early work, despite the underlying dancefloor intimations coming from the rhythm section and synthesizers. Indeed, '80s synths and dance beats are a good fit for Urie's voice".

"Too Weird to Live, Too Rare to Die! is cold and computerized, celebrating an aesthetic that proudly values overbearing, repetitious style over creative substance and varied timbres. There's no doubt that Urie's themes are as universal and poignant as ever, but the way he and the rest of the group delivers them is misguided at best. The shallowness of Las Vegas culture is undeniable, but the music used to express it shouldn't be. Panic! At The Disco is now only a shadow of its former self".
