Dashboard Confessional recently released a video for "Burning Heart," a song from their forthcoming ninth studio album, All The Truth That I Can Tell.
All The Truth That I Can Tell is due out on February 25 via Hidden Note Records/AWAL.
After releasing the video, Dashboard Confessional frontman Chris Carrabba appeared via a Rodeo livestream to discuss the track.
"In the song, there's this sense of, 'Okay, here we go! Are you ready? Because it's starting!'" Carrabba said. "This was the first one I wrote for the new album and it's the one outlier of the bunch. That night, I wrote a song that I was so certain of. Not that it was just good, but that it was powerful in some way, too."
"The conceit of this song reflects the fact that I'm holding in a lot," he continued. "I have a lot to say to the person I love in this moment. The idea in this setting is that I'm here to fight for this. I wanted a song that took a look at a hard conversation with a sense of although things aren't right now, they may be able to be set right if it's needed badly enough, wanted badly enough."
"In this setting, the conceit of the song is between two people in a relationship — well, you only hear one side," Carrabba added. "That's the bigger part of the conceit: what if you only heard the one side of the conversation?"
