Panic! At The Disco has been keeping fans on their toes for some time now with the hope of a new album. Now, it looks like that wait is officially over. The band has posted a cryptic clip to Instagram, as well as a seemingly straightforward tweet, to confirm that they'll be announcing their new album this Thursday, Oct. 22.
The brief clip depicts the band's frontman Brendon Urie emerging from a white plume of smoke, mesmerized, shocked and enamored by whatever appears in front of him before he falls through what sounds to be a trap door. The caption reads as it plays "If you love me let me go - October 22nd," the lyrics and song of which were actually excerpted from one of their former tracks,"This Is Gospel," which appears on their 2013 album Too Weird to Live, Too Rare to Die!.
If you love me let me go - October 22nd.

The tweet further confirms that a new album will be announced, along with a new song and music video. The band is referring to this happening as "The end of eras."
The end of eras begins October 22nd. New album. New song. New video. pic.twitter.com/1lmqsjeTv5 — Panic! At The Disco (@PanicAtTheDisco) October 19, 2015
The band's seminal debut album, A Fever You Can't Sweat Out, just celebrated its 10-year anniversary, so this is all timed kind-of perfectly. P!ATD's most recent single "Victorious" will most likely be on the new record, but you'll have to wait until Thursday to know for sure.
