Dashboard Confessional To Return With New Album In February

Dashboard Confessional will return early next year with a new album.
'Crooked Shadows', their first full length in over eight years, will arrive on February 9 through Fueled By Ramen. Speaking about the record and its lead track, We Fight, frontman Chris Carrabba said:
“When I wrote ‘We Fight’ I thought it was just about the music scene that I came up in—a place where people who’d never quite fit in anywhere felt they actually belonged. When we began playing the song live on our summer tour, I realized that ‘We Fight’ held a much broader meaning. It’s a song for people who, in spite of their differences, can find common ground in their convictions and foster those into something bigger than themselves. That, to me is something worth fighting for. Every album is personal, but as this album was coming together I realized, especially as the world’s political climate was rapidly changing, that ‘personal’ did not necessarily mean ‘mine.’ Suddenly, ‘Me’ became ‘We’ and that realization was empowering, comforting and terrifying all at once.”
