Today's Pick

American alternative rock band Dashboard Confessional have released a new music video to their latest single "Belle Of The Boulevard," on the band's myspace on November 25, off group's sixth studio album "Alter the Ending," is available in stores now via Vagrant Records.
Dashboard Confessional was started in 2000, as a side project from lead singer Chris Carrabba's venture band with "Further Seems Forever," based in Florida. The current line-up also consists John Lefler (guitar), Scott Shoenbeck (bass) and Mike Marsh (drums). They won the MTV2 award at the MTV Video Music Awards in 2002 for their song "Screaming Infidelities" and have appeared on motion picture soundtracks for 'Shrek 2' (As Lovers Go) and 'Spider-Man 2' (Vindicated).
"Belle of the Boulevard" is the album's second track, and was made available for listening at Radio Sophie on September 17. The video for track was shot in New Orleans last month and directed by actress Joey Lauren Adams, who got "had Rick Derris and Cohee Lundin locked in like a pair of Chinese finger cuffs" in movie "Chasing Amy." I'm loving the old-film vibe and the story it tells, and it really fits with the whole theme of the record. Dashboard Confessional also released "Belle of the Boulevard" for the Universal Pictures movie "Cirque Du Freak: The Vampires Assistant".
The album "Alter the Ending" is also peaked at No.1 at UK and Canada Charts. Rolling Stone saying "The emo godfather's sixth album proves he's also gotten better in that span." frontman Carraba says, "Alter the Ending's biggest drawback is the big production value over pre-determined substance, which hinders the potential of the weight these songs carry." The band has begun a 13 date acoustic tour with their friends in New Found Glory from November 30.
