Album Review

The second release in MTV's revived Unplugged series of TV shows and albums (following Lauryn Hill's head-scratcher of a public therapy session) is very much in the laid-back, casual, chatty spirit of the original Jules Shear-hosted TV show of the late '80s. (In a nod to the times, however, this was released as a CD/DVD double-disc, with the DVD containing the televised concert.) Of course, Dashboard Confessional MTV Unplugged is a little redundant, considering how many of singer/songwriter/mainstay Chris Carrabba's songs are simple voice and acoustic guitar numbers anyway, but this 52-minute selection is a well-chosen parade of hits and relative obscurities from throughout the band's career. Those who have been to a Dashboard Confessional concert know that one of the audience tics that has grown up around Carrabba is that the audience often sings along to the songs, often louder than Carrabba himself; that tendency is kept somewhat in check here, but it's still present, which might make MTV Unplugged a rather annoying listen for some.

Customer Reviews

Amazing
     

I don't understand why some people don't like this album. Usually for those new to Dashboard that want to check out their older stuff I reccommend this album because it has all their best songs before A Mark, A Mission, A Brand, A Scar including all four songs of the So Impossible EP.. Anyone who enjoys attending concerts or listening to bands perform live shouldn't mind the crowd singing along. It doesn't bother me at all. In some songs I acctually like it. This album also contains better sounding production for songs like Swiss Army Romance, The Sharp Hint of New Tears, Living In Your Letters, and most of all Turpentine Chaser - all from the Swiss Army Romance Album. This is a great album and I reccommend any Dashboard fan to buy it immediately, however, do not buy it on iTunes because the CD comes with a bonus DVD of the concert.

This IS Dashboard...
     

Everybody needs to stop complaining about the audience and understand that this is what Dashboard is and always has been... I remember going to my first concert of theirs in 2001 and remarking at what an amazing thing it was to hear everybody singing along. Maybe you have to be musician to understand, but the power that comes with hearing everybody singing your songs provides much more reward than any checks from your record company. This record isn't for everybody, and it leaves out some of the best D/C songs, but the most devoted Dashboard fans will realize that this is what happens when D/C is stripped down to their truest, most beautiful form.

k...
     

no. just don't.

sure, dashboard is very talented live, but why would you pay to hear a crowd sing? this is not dashboard live, this is a crowd live. why do you insult yourselves dashboard?

Biography

Formed: 1999 in Boca Raton, FL

Genre: Rock

Years Active: '90s, '00s

Singer/songwriter Christopher Carrabba became the poster boy for a new generation of emo fans in the early 2000s, having left behind his former band (the post-hardcore Christian outfit Further Seems Forever) to concentrate on vulnerable, introspective solo musings. Armed with an acoustic guitar and soul-baring song lyrics, Carrabba christened the project Dashboard Confessional — named after a lyric in "The Sharp Hint of New Tears" — and began releasing material in 2000. By 2001's The...
