La Dispute - Panorama

Panorama is the fourth studio album by American post hardcore band La Dispute, released in March 2019 via Epitaph Records.

La Dispute is five close friends from the Upper Midwest with a firm passion for the concept of music and art as a medium for making new friends. As a result, La Dispute makes (or strives to make) music that is both artistically, technically, and emotionally engaging in hopes of establishing legitimate connections with any and all interested people, while encouraging dialogue between those people and themselves about things in life that truly matter and that truly last.

La Dispute also carries a firm passion for the relevance of a live show, both for the bands involved and for the people in attendance, and will go to the grave believing that the environment created when strangers come together despite their differences to celebrate one important thing is invaluable and should not under any circumstances be taken for granted.

The album was inspired by the drive that vocalist Jordan Dreyer and his partner would take from their home in the East Hills neighbourhood of Grand Rapids, Michigan to Lowell, where the latter grew up.

Panorama received universal acclaim from music critics. Wall of Sound gave the album a perfect score of 5/5 stating that "La Dispute have overcome their own shadow, creating an unflinching masterpiece, a new milestone in an uncompromising career of beauty and misery".

This album is on black vinyl housed in a gatefold sleeve, pressed in the US via Epitaph Records.
