The album has been certified Gold by the RIAA, meaning it sold over 500,000 copies in the United States.[7]

The album, according to Rock Sound, gave Dashboard Confessional "a ton of worldwide exposure."[8] This resulted in Carrabba becoming "the poster boy for the emo resurgence of the early 2000s" and the album "defin[ing] an entire movement."[8]
