Eighteen Visions - Vanity
Review by Margaret Schaut
Vanity, the sixth studio album by Eighteen Visions, is a true testament to the band's musical prowess. The album features a perfect blend of heavy guitar riffs, pounding drums, and catchy choruses that will leave you wanting more.
The album starts off with the hard-hitting track "Crucified", which sets the tone for the rest of the album. The band then transitions into the more melodic "Tower of Snakes", which showcases their ability to seamlessly switch between heavy and soft sounds.
One of the standout tracks on the album is "The Disease, The Decline, and Wasted Time", which features a powerful chorus and a memorable guitar riff. Another notable track is "Underneath My Gun", which has a driving beat and a catchy chorus that will have listeners singing along.

- As per wikipedia:
- "The album was re-issued on January 25, 2005 as part of Trustkill Records re-issue calendar (which also saw Bleeding Through's This is Love, This is Murderous get the same treatment simultaneously). It featured new artwork and the album now had an enhanced video section which included the music video for You Broke Like Glass, the only single from the album. This also provided a chance for the track listing to be fixed, as the song "There is Always" was left off on the original CD covers of the album. It should however be noted that the picture LP released by Good Life does not feature the listing of either "interludes" on the album, "The Notes of My Reflection" and "There is Always". The possibilities that "The Notes of My Reflection" was actually mistakenly left on the track listing is often wondered. Nevertheless, both interludes are listed on the reissues' track listing."

Best song on vanity
Always cracked up at the ending
The band's 2002 album, Vanity, is a replica of their previous ones with more attempts at clean singing, acoustic chording and Emo-core sections.
Thank God come dumpster Amber was the one that put dip on trial Johnny Depp on trial
Awesome! Thanks for uploading this song. Memories ??
Who's this band could of herd of acid bath.

I remember the first time I heard this song back in 2002...

It was the rising of Metalcore days... good times!

this is a classic now. sad.
Throwback
eighteen visions was always "rock and roll" and heart, and in the early records you can see it in the lyrics but mostly in James' stage presence. they were great live. it was inevitable that they would become less and less heavy. their early stickers said "we're rock and roll kids playing metal music in a hardcore band." Taken was another good band that came out of that OC (I think) scene around that time
They used to be so good.
RIP Mick Morris AKA Mick Deth....passed away yesterday in his sleep.
