    Producers Butch Walker and John Feldman add the dramatic arrangements, whilst Urie and Smith throw the whole gamut of instrumentation to create an album of slick pop/rock that bares the hallmarks of their debut, but defines itself with a more direct attention to big hooks, confident delivery, and a manufactured dynamic that deliberately aims for daytime radio rotation.

The result is a respectable, mildly promising return, with Urie and co. demonstrating just enough of their former credentials to avoid slipping into anodyne cliche territory. http://hackskeptic.com… Expand

    Often, the individual pieces of this patchwork pop are more captivating than the overall image, yet there's still an undeniable appeal to Urie and Smith's crazed earnest energy.

    The departure of two of its crew is noticeable, but Vices & Virtues remains a convincing, uplifting, and entertaining voyage.

    With Vice & Virtues Panic At The Disco sound like the kind of people your grandparents would like. That doesn't mean that they are people who make bad music, but it does mean that they are creators of an album that does not rock. [26 Mar 2011, p.50]
