Brand New - The Boy Who Blocked His Own Shot

Is a Real Boy

Wow, I Can Get Sexual Too

Movies on the bright box
deliver their magic warnings.
I've got tired of these
fictional prophecies swarming.
And if they're going to come true-
bringing the dark to me and you,
no good you screaming it's unfair.
No good searching for an ark.

Last night I was so tired
.....So tired
..........So tired
...............So tired I thought
I might have expired.
Last night I was so tired
I thought I might have just expired.
Oh! Last night I was so tired
.....So tired
..........So tired
...............So tired I thought
I might have expired.
Last night I was so tired
I thought I might have just expired.


*

Oh! Life is unfair.
Life is so very unfair.
Please do not revive me-
I believe my death will be
a breath of fresh air.
Let a new personality
.....begin the process
..........of starting me over again.
My mind's about to blow
but I don't mind giving it another go.
God help me!
.....There's a war going on
..........inside my soul.

WAR IN MY SOUL

regarde le soleil se lever sur la mer

Failure By Design

La Dispute's "Wildlife," the follow-up to their 2008 LP "Somewhere at the Bottom of the River Between Vega and Altair," is a nearly 60-minute musical examination of the twentysomething search for purpose; an exploration of the struggles that confront, damage, and redefine us inevitably in life through 14 tracks of new material. Set up as a collection of unpublished "short stories" complete with the author's notes and sectioned thematically by four monologues, "Wildlife" discusses the difficulties inherent in growing up by interweaving the author's own ambiguous loss and struggle for meaning alongside the stories it compelled him to document. Accordingly, each song musically captures both the moods and tones of those stories as well as the more subtle personal narrative throughout the entire record through a heavy reliance on dynamics and alternative instrumentation allowing for a diversity that shows nearly every spot on the spectrum while never sounding out of place, forced, or unfamiliar. Recorded at both Drasik Studios in Chicago and StadiumRed in New York with Andrew Everding and Joe Pedulla using no artificial reverb, La Dispute's sophomore full length organically captures the sound of five friends committed to pushing their own creative boundaries while still retaining a desire to create honest and emotional music. "Wildlife" arrives October 4 via No Sleep Records.
