Few bands defined emo in the 2000s more than Dashboard Confessional. On this breakthrough third album, frontman Chris Carrabba perfectly distills post-adolescent angst and the dizzyingly wide emotional spectrum it entails. Romantic hopefulness (“Hands Down”) hangs out with revenge-fueled breakups (“Rapid Hope Loss”) on songs whose sincerity is matched only by their intimacy. After two relatively low-key albums, A Mark, A Mission, A Brand, A Scar is, to quote Rolling Stone, “the toughest, most assured music [Carrabba] has ever made, summing up the vulnerable charisma that has made him a cult idol for fans.”

Channeling both 1970s soft rock and Eighties hardcore, Carrabba hits his vocal high mark on this landmark album. “Most [emo] artists … can’t muster a wide emotional range,” wrote Blender at the time. “They’re good at rage or wonder, but not both. Carrabba can hit both poles in a single song.”






Customer Code Of Conduct: If you are rude to our staff, we will assume you wish to cancel your order. If you file a case, but say "I still want it," we will just refund you and you are welcome to purchase it again if you'd like. We offer good pre-order pricing for patient customers. Being aggressive ultimately makes transactions take longer. Everything we get goes out the day we get it. Logistics in music isn't fun for you or us. We do our best to communicate the latest known dates, but some of you like artists who are challenged at getting their stuff out on time. We get that.
Do we make mistakes? Of course, but it's fewer than 0.5% of orders. And when we do, we fix it.
