    Very interesting read. As someone who has recently left ministry and the church, and is actively deconstructing, this was a very insightful interview. Thanks for sharing!

    Forgot to post this interview with Chris Dudley which I came across a few weeks ago. Might not interest everyone as it's on a Christian website. However, I found bits insightful, particularly with him retaining his Christian beliefs and us often hearing from the Spencer/Aaron perspective both lyrically and in interviews. Uncensored Honestly: Chris Dudley on His Faith Inside Underoath Always love this kind of disclaimer on a Christian website: You have been warned!

    I forgot to write when I'd finished! Really enjoyed it - definitely was longing for the second part when I reached the end.

    I'm really hoping that them using 'World Tour' on their posters for this initial US run is backed up with their first UK tour dates in what seems like forever. I last saw them in 2010. A lifetime ago.

    Been revisiting their catalog as they are coming to my hometown for their 20 year tour of The Question and playing a barcade basement. It's a cool little full circle moment for me cause one of my first shows EVER was seeing FFTL, Emery, and Brazil in like 03 or 04 and they played in a tiny grange hall.

    After Laughter is such a special album to me. By far my favourite. I love everything about that album and I think that This Is Why is a tremendous follow up too. Both albums far superior to anything that came before it. I'd probably go for Brand New Eyes from their older albums.

    Still think After Laughter is my 2nd favorite album from them after Riot. It’s a great summer time album by the pool for me.

    "It’s been six years since La Dispute released their last album, Panorama. Since then, the Michigan post-hardcore band—made up of Jordan Dreyer on vocals, Brad Vander Lugt on drums, Chad Morgan-Sterenberg and Corey Stroffolino on guitar, and Adam Vass on bass—dealt with the stagnance of the pandemic, celebrated the ten-year anniversaries of Wildlife and Rooms Of The House, and began working on No One Was Driving The Car. The fifth studio LP is the first entirely produced by the group, and it came together in Grand Rapids and Detroit, the United Kingdom, Australia, and the Philippines: “I think the change in environment was really helpful to breathing new life into the process each time we came back to it,” Dreyer says. Partly inspired by the 2017 psychological thriller First Reformed, No One Was Driving The Car reckons with malaise in the shadow of the looming apocalypse, which has noticeably been worsened by the advancement of tech. The title comes from a quote from a police officer Dreyer read in a news article about a lethal self-driving Tesla crash, an absurd event which raises questions about the amount of control we have in our own lives. In fourteen dynamic tracks, the band grapples with the existential topic and the human need to find comfort and a sense of security in an existence where we’re often thrust into chaos without permission. Dreyer yells with a more primal sense and sings in a more refined way, and the guitars have a sharper edge than ever before. “As much as I don’t enjoy the creative process because it’s taxing and often not fun, I also think it’s the most fun that I ever have,” Dreyer contemplates. “It’s the revelations you make, the breakthroughs. It’s banging your head against a wall and suddenly something clicks in a way that feels almost divine, like it came from somewhere else.” - bio by Danielle Chelosky Tracklist: Side A - 20:22 1.

    I kind of like the regular art, but also I ordered the alternate vinyl (and the hat) I don't want to wait until September for this record, but I also know it's going to hit best once summer is over.

    I do wish there was more than 10 minutes left once we get the reveal, but I kind of like that it came out of nowhere. I know a few Catholics personally that are going to go see this and be mad at the end and that makes me a little happy.

    Modern movies are generally bad at showing how smartphones impact our daily lives but this film does accurately convey how people will hit the vape at the most inopportune times.

    I do love the idea in this film that all hell is breaking out outside the walls of the Sistine Chapel, but you barely feel it because you the viewer are sequestered along with the Cardinals.

    They are an incredibly consistent band who has never put out a bad record or a bad song. But man, I wish they would innovate more. It's the one thing holding them back from being an all-time favorite as far as heavy music goes.

    They’re a band that I always think I should like but I’ve never fully given them the attention they probably deserve. I think I own Captors somewhere. Crazy to think that came out in 2012.

    Was curious at browsing their name on this site, I do think they're one of the more underrated post-hardcore/metalcore bands in the scene. Have a new album coming out, they don't exactly reinvent the wheel but they haven't produced a bad album yet imo [MEDIA]
