Grade: C-
The third studio album from Panic! at the Disco, “Vices and Virtues” is a solidly mediocre attempt and exactly what one should expect when investing in the product of a leftover emo band that refuses to die quietly. To be fair, the album is listenable from start to finish, and a few songs like “Memories” and “Ready to Go” nearly qualify as catchy. However, true shining moments are few and far between on the record, and for the most part, it sound like it was made entirely on a child’s keyboard.
