The guitar chords echo along with the words, "Your hair, it's everywhere." thousands of voices ring together, "screaming infidelities and taking its wear." Chris Carrabba stands center stage strumming the chords on his acoustic guitar, with his eyes closed and a smile dancing across his face, as he hears the voices of his fans dominating over his. What a feeling.

     Carrabba 's incredible talent for songwriting comes together with his raw, piercing emotions to make brilliantly charismatic songs. You can feel the agony, the joy, the confusion in each of his songs. The passion in his voice as "This Bitter Pill" builds towards an end is enough to send chills up your spine. The full boasting guitar cords in the opening of "Again I Go Unnoticed" takes your breath away in an instant, and the lyrics to "Remember to Breathe" can melt any girl's heart.

      Boys across the country can only wish for the ability to have such effects on the ladies. And it's not just the girls who love Dashboard. Boys and men alike line up to see the show, waiting for a performance from their tangible idol.

     Dashboard Confessional's full length, Places You Have Come To Fear The Most , has earned praises from critics as well as fellow artists and is a must have for all who enjoy music.of any genre. Contrary to popular belief, Dashboard Confessional is not emo; nor is it pop, rock, folk, or any other classification genre you could come up with. The sounds of Dashboard Confessional can't be confined within the walls of genre.

Bottom line: its good music.label it if you dare.
