La Dispute Band • Page 29

Rooms has completely overshadowed their other two full lengths for me. Absolutely phenomenal.

 

Hmmm I forgot Wildlife came out in early Oct. I remember listening a lot in the November time frame when it was released.

 

having a wildlife moment right now.

FIND IT. A BODY THAT MAKES SENSE. IVE FELT IT

really feel like they are going to unleash a storm on us in a few months.

 

I associate Wildlife a lot more with Winter (especially in January) than any other season but the first few tracks definitely have an Octobernovember charge to them, from Departure through Hometown.

Also I've been listening a lot to Edward Benz again lately. It's such a cinematic and goddamn good song, but as someone who has to deal with a parent with schizophrenia and thinking about how that affected my (now) deceased grandparents, and also me, I don't know it's a lot. It's something most music doesn't even address, most music seems interested in fetishizing depression, so it's cool to see something like this, even if it's ultimately about the violence that arises in rare cases. I remember being 17 and listening to it as my mother screamed about the sun disappearing in the other room, about how my grandmother continued to love my mother even laying in her deathbed as my mother attempted to choke her to death. It's a lot.

It's like hell getting old.

 

LDs Twitter liked this. Bet its their record

 

Wildlife is very much a summer or spring album for me whereas Rooms is fall/winter. Though to be fair, we don’t really get seasons here, but Rooms just sounds colder to me

 

i get 4 very distinct seasons where i live and wildlife will always be the fading into winter album while rooms is thawing into life.

 

With all the ice references in Rooms and the bleak content in places, it’s a very autumn/winter album for me. Reflective, moody, cold, winter evenings.

 

not so much the content for me. more of the release dates

 

Yep. Wildlife released in the fall, Rooms in the spring. I’ll always associate Home Like No Place, Rooms, and Oh, Common Life with spring since I got into those around the same time.

 

Didn’t Rooms come out early March?

 

Edit:

Hmmm March 18th I guess

 

Hotelier - February 25th
Elder Brother - March 11th
LD - March 18th
Fireworks - March 25th

That was a good spring.

 

Looks like I’m finally seeing them for the first time in December :’)

 

ANNOUNCE THE ALBUM DAMNIT

 

Probably won't until the reissue comes out.

 

I agree. I am guessing on a late november/december announcement. I am impatient.

 

Perhaps they will spill the beans when pressed by a fan or two at these upcoming live shows...

 

Saw them tonight. No new tunes. No mention of release dates.

 

ok but do they fucks with streetlight manifesto?

 

I don't know but they did come out dressed up as "Ska Dispute" which was pretty funny

 

Give me new releases from all four of these bands in March 2019 or give me death

 

nothing is funny until i have concrete news about the LP. can't wait for november 9 to be over

 

Elder Brother's came out earlier this year, so I don't see that happening. I would be the happiest person alive if Fireworks decided to release another album.

 

They played 30 seconds of ska music to start their set too. It was literally terrifying.

What is significant about 11/9?
