It's a familiar situation really: Emotional indie rock boy starts off in moderately tough-guy band (in this case rockers Further Seems Forever), gets fed up, and realizes that he can write some pretty heartfelt acoustic tunes that the kids might actually enjoy. For Chris Carrabba, the dream of too many late-night troubadours actually came true, and on his second full-length he's got plenty of heartache to go along with some fairly catchy songs. Performing with a foot firmly entrenched in the {\indi   [ read more ]

Dashboard Confessional's Christopher Carrabba became pretty famous thanks to pop kids latching onto his band's second album, The Places You Have Come to Fear the Most. Released in 2001, this album carried Dashboard Confessional from the emo underground to the mainstream charts during an 18-month period; Carrabba made the cover of Spin two years later and late-night music stints on the shows of David Letterman, Conan O'Brien, and Craig Kilborn once again scoped {$Dashboard Co   [ read more ]

Dusk and Summer is the perfect next-level record for a band growing musically. Armed with the same brilliant lyrics you've grown to expect from Dashboard Confessional, Dusk and Summer is filled with huge, sweeping hooks and massive rock anthems. The bigness of these songs will be impossible to ignore and this is clearly the record needed to take Dashboard Confessional to superstar status.

The MTV Unplugged concept was probably invented with someone like Florida singer-songwriter Chris Carrbba (a.k.a. Dashboard Confessional) in mind. Carrabba's relentlessly sad, impossibly frail acoustic songs--which effectively spawned the emo-core genre--have given alienated, cardigan-wearing guys and gals a snappy soundtrack to their pain. Dropping the heavily inked guitarist amid his flock captures both the intimacy and awkwardness propelling Dashboard Confessional's best songs. Indeed, whether Carrabba i   [ read more ]

By the time their third studio album, the cumbersomely titled A Mark, A Mission, A Brand, A Scar, was released in the summer of 2003, Dashboard Confessional had long been poised as the band that would bring emo crashing into the mainstream. Never mind that Weezer already did that, before this kind of music even had a name -- during the late '90s, while Weezer was away, emo became an underground phenomenon ignored by the press and built by word of mouth by sensitive teenagers eager for musi   [ read more ]

As the initial frontman of Further Seems Forever, Chris Carrabba had already established his bona fide rock credentials by the time Dashboard Confessional took off in the early 2000s. He was an authentic rocker who felt enough confidence not to rock, who didn't cry when tattoo needles pierced his skin but openly wept during cathartic performances. Those live shows were the crux of Carrabba's manic appeal; while spinning tales of heartbreak and mistrust, he would invariably call upon the s   [ read more ]

Dusk and Summer -- a cohesive album divergent from the modern rock collection of songs on 2003's A Mark, A Brand, A Mission, A Scar -- finds Dashboard Confessional's path to maturity leading them, weirdly enough, back to their roots. Whether or not this is a reaction to mainstream success, Dashboard is still very much a full band, but the album is gentler and falls much closer to the feeling of The Places You Have Come to Fear the Most. Not only does it include more tracks with simpler arr   [ read more ]
