Vices
Vices when you think about Dead Poetic's new album, Vices, think classic rock n' roll or the '90s alt-rock nation. Vices owes more to Stone Temple Pilots and Pearl Jam than whichever "scene" bands have skipped the VFW Halls and gone straight to the mainstream this week. Vices reflects their strongest evolution yet.  Unencumbered by expectations, Dead Poetic set out to write the record they had always wanted to make. The end result is something more honest in every sense of the word, musically and lyrically. Songs like ''Crashing Down'' and ''Paralytic,'' co-written with Deftones Chino Moreno (who also guests) are the tip of a rich iceberg full of new sounds.
