the fantasy is dead
dead poetic - vices
seemingly delayed forever, dp finally dropped their followup to 2004's new medicines, one of my favorite rock albums of the last few years. vices certainly doesn't disappoint, either. their intensity is turned down slightly (read: less screaming) for a sound with more depth and maturity that is more consistent across the length of the disc. seems a little weaker and more bland lyrically. it doesn't really introduce anything new or revolutionary to the genre; rather it shines as a nearly perfectly-executed example of how to make an emo-core album. take a listen - well worth picking up.
