Vices and Virtues is the second studio album by Canadian rock band Art of Dying. It is the band's major label debut after signing under David Draiman and Dan Donegan's Intoxication records. Coincidentally, alternative rock band Panic! at the Disco released their third album, also titled Vices & Virtues (not counting the ampersand), on the same day. As of September 2014, Vices and Virtues has sold over 50,000 copies.[4]
