It’s difficult to describe the machinations of my life without acknowledging the ubiquitous discomfort. I know that I’ve been happy, it’s just hard to surface from beneath the gossamer of guilt that covers everything I’ve known.
But when it’s my turn to leave I pray I’m known for more than my misery. Is that how you will remember me?
If I’m being honest I’m unsure if that question is mine to find an answer for. It doesn’t feel like my place to dictate how you feel when I’m gone. All I know is that I harbor an inconsolable grief for the life that I’ve allowed to be placed out of reach by the ghost of inadequacy.
I need you to know that I’m happier now, than I’ve ever been.
I hope you know that I’m happier now, cos I’m happier now.
But when it’s my turn to leave I pray I’m known for more than my misery. Is that how you will remember me?

Musically this feels more experimental for La Dispute reminding me of their Here, Hear releases. Very atmospheric and easy to lose your self in. Perfect for the next time you’re contemplating your existence. (Also found out the guitarist builds his own pedals and used them on this record; neato!) Mikey
The post-hardcore band’s latest is a reflection on time, memory, death, and grief—and is their dreamiest material to date. Bandcamp Album of the Day Mar 22, 2019
This album is overwhelmingly good. I've been making music for long enough and listened to too much music to not be impressed easily. This album is goosebumps from beginning till end. Completely different realm of existence of good. minerva
