@@ilikeyacutg854 yeah he had good energy I guess but he essentially asked "what animal would you be" with a little extra. Kind of lame but the guy does seem like a cool dude

I remember the first time I ever saw these guys. It was in this old Opera House with a wooden floor. The band set up in the middle of the floor, and the crowd gathered all around them, literally inches away from the band. They played Somewhere at the Bottom of the River, in its entirety. It got so rowdy at points, you could feel the floor flexing and bouncing under the weight of everyone jumping and dancing, and you could hardly hear the singer because everyone there was screaming along. I've been to a lot of shows, but that was one of the most unforgettable.
Their old concerts were rowdy and fun. One time we were in a small venue and people were literally bouncing off the ceiling while crowd surfing. Now with their slow depressing new albums......no point seeing them live unless you want to take a nap.
Damn... until today that was literally the only album I'd listened to of theirs. I remember reading about how the toured the album, playing it its entirety just like you described and was so sad that I'd missed out. I'm so glad you got to experience that man, what a memory.
@@thevidon God forbid a band grow up, and change. If you were a musician you'd understand how boring it gets just playing the same shit forever, and over and over every time you record a new album or play show. Now THAT will make me want to take a nap, talk about boring stagnation. Them becoming better musicians and songwriters means changing up their style and how they perform. Not to mention they're physically changing as they grow older. That changes the way you play and write music as well.
Found these guys this past two days whilst in the hospital looking after my partner and baby who had a touch and go start. Delved into their Spotify, given each album a play through and I'm now over the moon to see that their talent and vibe crosses over to a live format effortlessly. 100% found myself a new top 5 band.
yeah except where the vocalist literally whispers his replies lmao i had to turn the volume way up just to hear him drifting away from the mic bro may as well have mumbled the whole first 2 minutes
Anyone else love clicking random Audiotree performances and realise the band playing captures the sound you never knew you wanted to hear but you instantly love it?
it used to be cruising the record store and grabbing shit that looked interesting and heading to the record player plopping the needle and being like damn....this one is a must have. I kind of miss those days but it's nice having easy access and the digital age makes it all so easy.
I'm excited for you. I wish I could rediscover these guys! Probably one of the few bands that is always exciting to listen to no matter how many listens. They've been in my top played artists for the last 6 years
This will forever be a classic session...and this band will always mean the world to me. Wildlife in particular contains some of the most emotive, powerful and relatable songs I've ever had the pleasure of introducing into my life. I will keep them with me until the end.
Joel Gallant dude him saying dope is dope, man. Like super dope that this dope band with dope composition is in this dope studio making dope beats dawg. First memorable dope record dawg. Sick, dude.
Apparently in an interview Jordan said that he was stressed writing the lyrics for Panorama, paraphrasing, he said he wanted them to be polished. I think that one of La Dispute's strengths is the unpolished nature of the lyrics, because it translates feeling in a much more powerful way. Just listen to A Departure, or 27 Times; unless i'm a fool, I don't think that Jordan pondered for days and days writing and re-writing those lyrics. I think he went with his gut. Keep on making fantastic music guys. See you tomorrow night in Toronto.
I think my favorite bit of lyrics from them is in a departure "Maybe you know what I'm talking about, Or maybe you would have known? Or had known? Is it once knew? I don't know what tense to use." I loooooooooove that verse so much: the stream of consciousness, the writing, the figuring out of grammar. The fact that they put all that in a banger of a song too 👏
strongest verse i have ever heard is from Nine, man these are powerfull lyrics "i remember in a basement sharing sweat with all these stranger boys and girls "we'll change the world" we sang "we'll change the world" but nothing seems to change and they say none of them will listen, but i still see so much more power in that basement than in useless politicians"
@@MT-hj1nj that was the first song i heard by them, when i was in eighth grade. the part that stuck with me, trying to recall it correctly now, was, “have them lay us in a basement, smash some bottles on the ground, and say we couldn’t tell the difference between the feeling and the sound.”
Okay, Edward Benz, 27 times gave me chills and made my heart slow down. Their stories are worth listening to. Thanks AudioTree (aka Audiofern) for sharing a great interview and performance.
Bloody hell, I'm closer to 70 than 60, have been listening to some pretty out-there music for 40 years. But la Dispute might be one of the best bands I've stumbled across, Ever. Delivered to me by my 16 year old! Audio-tree has exposed me to some unbelievable music - Respire (another peak existential crisis of a great kind), Vasudeva, Sorry Youth. Too good.
TH-cam recommended this to me, I was bored and clicked, color me surprised. This is amazing. Buying their albums now, I was searching for music like theirs for a while but couldn't really find it (yes, touche amore is similar, but different).
Wow from march 2012 that was exactly the month I got big into wildlife always remember running at night on silent cool streets listening to this masterpiece good times
I think what hero’s trying to say is what I experienced 🤷♂️ listening to this on pandora or Spotify, then looking it up and seeing WHO this voice comes from is like whoa 😮 I didn’t know what to expect, but still. The talking normal every day voice and face, then the yelling, the pain, the grief, the anger, the passion, from this dude .. not exactly... expected
Are you telling me there was a full 40 minute live set of La Dispute recorded on Audiotree for years, of which they only released 3-4 songs? Are you serious? Still, happy to finally see this. I've found many new bands through Audiotree after looking for more La Dispuite, and I'm forever grateful.
Zao represent... first metalcore band I ever listened to as well. then came Poison the Well and hardcore. good old days. oh shit, shout out to The Books too. that album is incredible. these guys listen to excellent music.
I remember listening to the individual songs you guys had up back in 2012, these are still my favorite live sessions from these guys. I'm glad you guys posted the full session just wish i'd seen it sooner (y)
Just discovered this band! Holy shit! Audiotree always giving us the good stuff even before we knew we needed it. I love discovering a band and it consumes and intrigues my passion for music again.
I agree with the Zao comment. They have been out for ever and if you haven't checked them out, you need to. They birthed so much in the metalcore world. So much of what exists wouldn't without them paving the way.
Saw them long ago when I was young at a venue in Indiana, a small living room some kids parents were selling the house in the worst neighborhood ever. Could only fit about 20 people and we were smooooshed. Some of my fondest memories
I'm about to see them live in concert tomorrow and for some reason this is the frist time I've seen what the band members look like.... definitely was not expecting this
OMG his question about what form of matter they would be cracked me up haha! But seriously, love these guys and the deep, profound meanings behind their songs, and the actual thought that goes behind writing them.... Love art like that. They've been one of my favorite bands ever since I started listening to them.
all the individual songs have been available and this entire thing has been on their site lol stop complaining
lemme tell u what i think abt frog spit. im 4 it.

Respire!
They perfectly encapsulated the feeling of living in Michigan in the winter (they’re from Grand Rapids) and I appreciate them for that lol.
Edward Benz, 27 times is one the most chilling songs. Just gives me goosebumps. damn.
That and King Park are the two most emotionally impactful songs I've ever heard
@T RopE where so good?
Agreed; such an underrated Title Fight song. La Dispute are alright as well, I suppose.
King Park always gets me.
@@MrLynksys1000 don't forget I See Everything!
The Most Beautiful Bitter Fruit - one of the best songs of all time for me. This session was also the first time, when I heard La Dispute
I'm excited for you. I wish I could rediscover these guys! Probably one of the few bands that is always exciting to listen to no matter how many listens. They've been in my top played artists for the last 6 years
Yeah The Most Beautiful Bitter Fruit is a lyrical genius at work for sure

Still coming back for this performance...thank you!!!!
Coming here now just to say these guys really hit me in an emotional way. Love their music and songwriting, always have. This is great.
I love it when bands aren’t over engineered and end up sounding like the album when they play live. Love these guys.
no matter how many years pass i always come back to la dispute
This is the best session you guys ever had.
The fact that this was published on January 19 (I See Everything)....
saw that too.
The presence of these guys is just amazing you can feel the whole bands energy when the drums kick in and then the guitars omg just amazing
Lets take a moment and appreciate the camera work on this..
i had not even noticed it until i read this but god damn thats actually pretty quality
😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂
i cannot stand the camera work, way too many cuts and too much movement as well as the close ups. it's nauseating
@@sianas11 thats literally the point. its frantic, urgemt, unstable. its the embodiment of this music
I can totally imagine the camerapeople practically headbanging.
Pretty sure this was the first AudioTree session I ever discovered online. Love the bands you guys get on here. Thanks so much!
Jordan: *writes emotionally distressing and hard-hitting lyrics*
also Jordan: "audiofern live :)"

You know when you listen to a band & you just picture them looking a certain way? these guys will fool you
THIS
I totally disagree haha, this is exactly what I expected when I heard about them.

Some of the most intense and chilling music with unbelievable deep thought, the interviewer had nothing good to say to them. “Would you be a tree?”
