Hot Topic rumours are circulating.

Fingers crossed - we may now have a date for the return of Panic!'s classic albums on vinyl!

You might remember that way back in the halcyon days of January 2016, shirt-hating forehead owner Brendon Urie released the latest album by his really rather good band Panic! At The Disco.

Fun times.

But, sadly, we were still waiting to get our hands on a sweet vinyl copy of the band's classic records to simultaneously impress our hipsters friends and make our shelf look all pretty.

Fortunately, dark eyeliner and band merch purveyors Hot Topic are coming to the rescue. In a post on a vinyl forum (yep, those exist), a user named Travis, who is a music buyer for the company, posted this encouraging message, even revealing a release date.

Diehard Panic! fans may have noticed that getting a copy of one of their earlier masterworks on vinyl can often prove tricky and expensive.

This is because, with a couple of exceptions, the albums have never had a reprint and are now subsequently Too Expensive To Live, Too Rare To Buy (sorry).

But never fear because, according to Travis, Hot Topic may once again be coming to the rescue!

Just look at this cryptic message.

Well, if what Travis is hinting at is true, we could soon be seeing a Hot Topic re-release of Panic!'s previous albums on vinyl.
