Dashboard Confessional - The Shade of Poison Trees
Reviewed by agloriousruin
After a bit of a miss with last year's Dusk and Summer, Dashboard Confessional returns to its roots, with a more acoustic driven album very much like those that helped Chris Carrabba gain indie fame in the early part of the decade. This time around, though, the songs aren't as high pitched and emo, showing the maturity that Carrabba was striving for on his last effort. This album should please all types, from those who've been with Dashboard since the beginning and those who are just getting started. [www.dashboardconfessional.com]
