Dashboard Confessional working on next album

Contributed by an Anonymous Source. Posted by aubin on Tuesday, March 25, 2008 at 7:00 PM (EDT)

Dashboard Confessional have begun work on their next album. Frontman Chris Carrabba posted the update:

I took a vacation from my social obligations to write songs and before I knew it I had a batch that was new and intriguing and best of all connected to each other. I have missed you though while I have been working on this music, but I have discovered along the way that it is best for me to push all things to the periphery while in pursuit of new songs.

So to bring us one step closer, let me share this news with you: John, Scott, Mike and I started in the studio this week with producer Adam Schlesinger.

Dashboard released Dusk and Summer in 2006.

Guys who like to appear sensitive in order to trick little girls into sleeping with them are stoked.

everyone alway wants to shit on Dashboard Confessional. i never understood why.

i mean, yeah, the songs are melodramatic as all hell...but the songs are also really good pop songs. i will never understand why everyone feels like being narrow minded assholes whenever Dashboard Confessional is mentioned.

did Chris Carraba perform a puppy/kitty holocaust that i am unaware of?

If you have even a passing affection for Dashboard, you need to sit down and have a nice long reflection about your life and exactly where you went wrong.

Dusk and Summer was boring radio rock, but his more acoustic based stuff has been top notch

Um, they also released The Shade of Poison Trees in 2007.
