This band is one of the Vices I Admire, no pun intended. Borrowing their name from
one of the world’s most historic figures, Sir Winston Churchill, Vices I Admire bring an
album chock full of hit songs, something not expected in today’s music industry.
Unsatisfied with fitting in, the band takes a trip to the wild side of rock and brings back
a trophy catch with their new album release titled, “The Politics of Apathy”.

One of the top songs on the album, “Heartbreaker”, is in a galaxy of its own. On the
song Curtis spills his vocal talent all over the place, painting revolution and riots
everywhere he goes, while his band mates Mickey Dollar, Dan Battenhouse, and Mark
Towne help him burn the place to the ground. The song has “hit” written all over it, as
Curtis explains to us “the politics of apathy.”

In addition to “Heartbreaker”, another top choice of mine is the song “Sweetest Girl”
which was featured on MTV’s THE REAL WORLD LAS VEGAS. The song is the album
opener, and is a great way to come out of the “gate.” On the song, Curtis expresses
his frustration with what he calls a “melodramatic love affair” with the sweetest girl. The
song is a commercially viable selection that is perfect for Top 40 radio.

"Our ultimate goal is to continue growing as musicians and artists and share the music
we create with as many as we are able." -- Vices I Admire

Other bands out there should take a page from Vices I Admire’s book and simply make
great music instead of trying to fit in. Visit this band’s site and purchase their music.
Lets help keep real music alive and breathing.
