Another of more modern metal bands that lean towards alt. rock brings forth their new album. The difference between Art Of Dying and my last review Protest The Hero is that AOD are focused and understand how to form songs into listenable music. All the aggression is present that is needed to make this genre what it is. After listening to the latest Saliva album and being a little disappointed in them I find AOD has released the album I more so expected from Saliva.
AOD is not a band I've been really familiar with but I will spend time getting acquainted with Vices & Virtues. The band have a song called "Sorry" on this album that sits right in my wheelhouse when it comes to power ballads. This is a truly brilliant power ballad that even though it might have familiar styling to others in the genre is a classic slice. It will forever be added to my rotation of regular listened to songs. I can't find anything about the song I don't think is great a flawless piece of songwriting. The band have another song on here that is flawless called "The Best I Can" worth a click over to I-Tunes for a purchase.
Overall Vices & Virtues is a well produced hard rock record that could make this band the next big thing. I love this album!
Song Highlights: Best I Can, Sorry, Breathe Again, Die Trying, Whole World's Crazy & Get Thru This
