Dashboard Confessional - Crooked Shadows (February 9, 2018) Album • Page 4

For some reason I had you blocked... I don’t know why ha

 

Gonna fall asleep to the Unplugged album tonight.

 

Honestly they’re all equally important to me for different reasons, except “Shade...”

There’s a few good songs on there that I go back to but that’s the only record in their catalog that I don’t have much of a connection with. Some of the songs seem forced IMO.

I’d say Dusk and AMAMABAS are my top two. ATE is probably third, but I’ll have to think about it. It’s hard to rank them on the same scale as the first two records (which I do LOVE)

 

Haha, those were actually my two favorites on the record for the longest time.

Speaking of underrated songs... I’ve been obsessed with “Currents” lately. Never hear anyone talk about that song.

 

Shade is not very good.

 

Just realized “Swiss Army..” and “Shade..” are both not on Spotify at the moment.

 

i’m sorry but ATE is absolutely his best vocal work. i mean that big note in the title track? that’s some rafter reaching shit

 

The title track on Shade might be my favorite Dashboard song. It's so simple but so haunting.

Man, I need to go back through his discography. I grew up on Dashboard but for some reason haven't thought to listen for a while.

 

Shade hit home for me in winter 2012. I specifically remember the day I thought to myself "damn, I can't believe it took me this long to really appreciate this album". Fever Dreams, The Rush, and Widows Peak are the only songs I skip. Little Bombs is one of my favorite Dashboard songs too.

One thing about that album is I wish the original release was a full electric version like AMAMABAS and Dusk and Summer and a DLX version being the acoustic version like ATE was.

 

Dusk is not very good

 

Dusk is my FAV! Reason to Believe and Slow Decay

 

Hands down it was the best day you will ever remember

 

Steve, I'm already aware of how wrong you are about this band.

 

I do not see what you did there.

 

This is a real opinion?

 

Zzzzzzzzzz

 

You skip The Rush and Widows Peak?? Those are two of the best songs on the album!

 

I think those are the worst on there haha

 

I think “The Widow’s Peak” is probably the best on Shade.

 

I came around to Shade a few years ago, but haven't gone back to it since it finally clicked with me haha.

 

Damn, wish that was coming to Utah...

But either way, I'm seeing them tonight!

 

Probably the most rough I've ever heard him. I love that bridge though.

 

He sounded pretty good over the summer, but the winter tour this is exactly what he sounded like in Boston. It was pretty bad. But that’s been most of my recent DC show experiences, tbh

 

Damn! I was thissssss close to going to that. It was free, but it was during my lunch break so I had only 30 minutes. They opened the doors late though and it was FREEZING outside so I ended up waiting for like 10 minutes in line and then went and got food. Haha. But I went to their real show later that night and it RULED.
