hm i've finally been able to listen to this cd, and it's eh. i'm really shocked, nothing's really sticking out.

I think Bend and not Break and I Am Missing stick out really well.

Chris said in AP that part of his set would be solo. He didn't say weather it would be acoustic or not...

i think Chris will leave Vagrant he is going to put up big numbers with this one. He also said in an interview that none of the set will be acoustic and all songs have been worked to fit a whole band. So yea maybe a acoustic encore but that will be it.


well that sucks ass.. i want to acoustic songs

i was never into dashboard until recently, so I snagged a copy of "the places you have come to fear the most," and that CD friggin' rocks. I've also heard some of Bright Eyes "Lift..." , that CD is darn cool, too.

I haven't heard any of the new album yet, but Hands Down is probably my favorite Dashboard song from previous albums, so I really can't wait to hear that!

I know this is a tad off topic, but did anyone buy a second copy of Swiss Army Romance just for the bonus tracks? I did :lol:

My friend sent me the cd via msn (the new one) and its great. I love it! I saw dash on tour with Weezer last year I think and I loved it. I have been a fan since he came out in FSF though. ;)

I am with rob the new hands down is way worse then the original

rolling stones gave the new album 4 stars I don't think they ever know what they are talking about.

the amped-up rock production just makes his songs more powerful



like hell it does it makes them less

The acoustic guitar always makes songs sound more solemn.

Anyone here notice that Chris Carrabba took away everything that made him unique? It was just him and an acoustic guitar. Then a band and an acoustic guitar. Now it's a band. It's like he wants back in Further Seems Forever, but wants to whine more. It's sad, really.

The new cd isn't whiny to me. It seems like a new chapter, and a good one. I'm sick of people thinking bands should always stay the same.

I know this is a tad off topic, but did anyone buy a second copy of Swiss Army Romance just for the bonus tracks?
No, but I do have the new songs. Neither of which were reason enough to re release the cd.

I like the amped up version of Hands Down...

Sorry Rob...I forgot about it. But as soon as I get home I am still gonna dl some!

i hate the dashboard confessional. always have. always will.

so, in other words, i <i>didn't</i> like them before they were cool, which by default makes me the coolest person ever.

Dashboard's on Letterman tonight!!! woo!

So yeah, this cd will have 12 songs on it. And of the 11 new ones, I think Dashboard will remake 8 of them for their next three cds.
