I think the problem with him making Dashboard a full rock band is that it never was a *rock* band. It was somewhere between rock and pop and so you lost the personal nature of the songs but rarely had a rocking enough edge to the songs that it made up for it. The songs that do work with the band element are the ones that are heavier and louder, so they naturally make it work better.
