Dashboard Confessional - The Swiss Army Romance

About this episode

The episode explores Dashboard Confessional's album 'The Swiss Army Romance' and its emotional impact.

In this episode we enter the confessional booth.. "Bless me Father, for I have sinned.. I think tonight I'll take the long way" Dashboard Confessional was the first singer-songwriter that we connected with. 'The Swiss Army Romance' is an entire album so full of heart and classic sing-alongs, Chris Carrabba was dubbed 'The King Of Pain' for all the right reasons. The pastor is in, so gather around because church is in session.
