Vices is the third full-length album by Christian hard rock band Dead Poetic.

Aaron Sprinkle once again produced the album, and Chino Moreno of Deftones contributed guest vocals to "Paralytic."

First, only Rike and guitarist Zach Miles remained from the band's lineup on its 2004 breakthrough, New Medicines.

Second, Rike does not scream on the record, thus abandoning the band's earlier post-hardcore sound in favor of straight-up rock & roll.

Finally, as a result of this shift in styles, Vices is released solely through Tooth & Nail, not through Tooth & Nail's heavier subsidiary Solid State Records, which released the band's first two albums.
