Ok, millennials, this may be hard to process, but January marked the 20th anniversary of Dashboard Confessional’s emo masterpiece “Screaming Infidelities.” I know, I know. Where does the time go? But stifle those angsty flashbacks because there’s good news. Late last month the band released their ninth album, All the Truth That I Can Tell, once again mixing the vulnerability and punk spirit that helped define a whole generation of rock, and it finds founder Chris Carrabba in Y2K-era form.

For many fans, the new the accident. Carrabba spoke with about why that’s so hard to believe and about returning to the road after a long break from touring.
