Panic's Disco Is Lame In Mississauga

By Stephanie Joudrey (CHARTattack) October 27, 2008 4:06 pm
Anyone entering Arrow Hall last Friday night would have expected to meet the screams of hundreds, if not thousands, of teenage girls. This wasn't the case, as the crowd barely filled a portion of the venue. You crossed through a practically empty convention hall to get to the stage, and the sheer size of this venue made the audience seem...

Dashboard Confessional Rock Awkwardly

in
By Allegra Shepherd (CHARTattack) July 4, 2006 4:30 pm
Pre-teen girls have always made up a substantial portion of Dashboard Confessional's fanbase, but they arrived in unprecedented numbers to see Friday's concert at the Molson Amphitheatre. Since there's little worse than going to an emo show alone, they came with their BFFs, their boyfriends or, in some cases, their mothers. Despite the...

Dashboard Confessional — Dusk And Summer

in
By Allegra Shepherd (CHARTattack) June 28, 2006 10:19 am
More than a year ago, Dashboard Confessional's Chris Carrabba announced that his band would re-record their fourth full-length album, saying that the original version would only appeal to hardcore Dash Con devotees. Those same fans were panicked that Carrabba would abandon his signature songwriting formula (metaphors about struggling + overuse of...

Dashboard Confessional — A Mark, A Mission, A Brand, A Scar

in
By Christine Estima (CHARTattack) August 12, 2003 3:12 pm
Like Dashboard Confessional's last release, The Places You Have Come To Fear The Most, Chris Carrabba delivers on this new collection of earnest pop-rock heartbreak tunes. This album is intensely intimate, just like the candid photos of the band in the CD booklet. Carrabba has a gift for off-kilter lyricism. In a way, these songs are all about the...

Kasabian celebrated the end of their tour in support of last year's West Ryder Pauper Lunatic Asylum by gatecrashing two weddings with Noel Gallagher. We're guessing there was plenty of booze involved and the language got quite... appropriately filthy. —The Sun My Morning Jacket, R.E.M. and Rage Against The Machine guitarist Tom...

Dashboard Confessional — Alter The Ending

in
By Sheena Lyonnais (CHARTattack) December 16, 2009 3:40 pm
After nine years of emo indulgence, I expected to move beyond Chris Carrabba's tattooed sobs over lost love and dreams. But instead, I find myself feeling even more in love with Dashboard Confessional's latest release, Alter The Ending. It's an album that manages to capture Carrabba's famous sense of melancholy through matured eyes. What used...

Dashboard Confessional Opening For Bon Jovi

Soccer moms and bikers are about to be mega-confused. In what's probably the weirdest bill ever, Dashboard Confessional has been picked to open for Bon Jovi. Yes, emo and classic rock in the same venue. I'm trying to think of something that's weirder than this, but I can't. Chris Carrabba and company will open for Jon Bon and company from...

Dashboard Confessional's Chris Carrabba wasn't talking to us when he toured through Canada a while back. But that was due to a cold that kept him quiet until he hit the stage. So instead we went 21st century and got some email time with Carrabba to talk about new album The Shade Of Poison Trees and his style of music. ChartAttack: The Shade Of...

They've become one of the most popular bands in the country, won Juno Awards and become one of the country's most sought-after acts abroad. The only thing they haven't done is release a sophomore album. After a long, long wait, the sequel to the band's full-length debut...

Dashboard Confessional's Chris Carrabba is a picky guy. He scrapped the first version of the band's new album after not being satisfied with the final product. Then he overhauled much of what he recorded with Canadian producer Daniel Lanois (U2) after teaming up with Don Gilmore (Linkin Park, Good Charlotte). Gilmore and Carrabba first...
