I have friends who love V&V, and that includes me, so it's weird to me that people think its only okay. Aside from "Mona Lisa" the whole album is gold. I love all the eighties sounds and song structures.

ahahaha what is this from? When Oprah gave everyone the cars?

I didn't really like Vices And Virtues, but to be fair I never really gave it more than like 3 listens tops. It didn't grab me the way Pretty. Odd. or A Fever You Can't Sweat Out. I think Pretty. Odd. was their best, imo. Then again, I also really liked The Young Veins, so I don't know if that nulls my opinion or not.

So pumped for this! Vices was a gem.

I think he said he's putting out a solo album.

Yes yes yes

agreed, great record, but no lasting power.

Maybe it was their record to say "hey! we're back! the original us!

We'll see.........

A Fever was genre-crossing massive and everything since then hasn't been. I don't hate the new Panic(!) , but they won't ever be what they were.
