I feel bad for not listening to this album as much as I should have when it was released. But on the flip side it's a PERFECT winter album, so the fact that I didn't really dive into it until recently has made it a lot better. La Dispute will always be amazing post-hardcore pioneers no matter what they do. Some of the old aggression is gone, sure, but much like their contemporaries in Thrice, they've replaced it with far more interesting song structures and instrumentations and melodies. The album flows seamlessly from one song to the next and it's really easy to get lost while listening to it, which is a hell of a feat given it's like a million hours long. (Okay, apparently it's only 41 minutes long, but that just shows how easy it is to get lost in it, right?) Really damn good stuff.
