Seminal post-hardcore band La Dispute is coming through Opera House on April 16 with tickets available via the Opera House site.

It’s in support of their album Panorama, their first release w/ Epitaph Records and fourth overall release. Their most-personal project to date that finds them combining elements of jazz, rock, slow core, noise, hardcore among others on the 10 track label debut. Opening for them will be Gouge Away and Slow Mass. Live show is incredibly fun, entertaining, and full of high energy – they pride themselves in connecting with their fans.

Panorama was produced by the band in tandem with return producer Will Yip (Quicksand, Braid, Code Orange, Nothing, Title Fight) Panorama combines jazz, rock, slowcore, noise, hardcore among other influences over the span of 10 tracks. Most of what happens on the album takes place on the route singer Jordan Dreyer and his partner would drive from their home in the East Hills neighborhood of Grand Rapids to the city of Lowell, where she grew up. Everywhere along the drive are places where, in varying degrees of recency, people have died: a pond where a man drowned walking home in the winter, multiple places where people crashed driving drunk or were killed in car accidents, and one place where years prior a city worker found a Jane Doe decomposed. Panorama is intended to be a wide angled shot of that drive, with the stories of those tragedies becoming focal points but filtered through the sieve of the couple’s life together.

Their national spring tour in support of the album kicks off April 13th with a sold out hometown Grand Rapids show making stops at New York, DC, Chicago, Los Angeles and Toronto and Vancouver as their only Canadian stops.
