The Common Vice

About Me

The Common Vice was spawned in early 2004 for the creation of a conceptual piece titled "Victorian Modesty." In addition to elaborate stage props set in the nineteenth century, a full length recording was made and released in December of 2007, which featured the talents of organist Dr. Goodspeed. The Common Vice then transformed into a power-rock trio, freely mixing in elements of Rock, Folk, and Pop, and they released an e.p. titled "May Flowers" in 2008. Shortly after, guitar wizard Felix Torres was added to the lineup, giving the band a sharper sonic edge. Another e.p. is scheduled to be released in May, 2009. MyGen Profile Generator
