Having returned last month to announce No One Was Driving the Car, their first new album in six years, La Dispute have this week shared Environmental Catastrophe Film', an eight-minute composition that twists, turns and convulses its way towards its climatic finale. The new track follows Act One of the album, a three-song suite made up of 'I Shaved My Head', 'Man with Hands and Ankles Bound' and 'Autofiction Detail' — each a tense, poetic vignette, steeped in the band’s signature blend of spoken-word intimacy and post-hardcore catharsis. Speaking about 'Environmental Catastrophe Film', vocalist Jordan Dreyer offers:"the second act—more or less the thematic centre of the record—is a single song split into three parts. it begins with a boy beside a creek-bed in a wooded area near home, holding a snapping turtle above the flowing water, before tracing its winding path to the river around which the city was first built, and through a brief history of the city itself—its settlement, the creation of the christian reformed church, and the furniture industry that dominated its early economic growth" Take a listen for yourselves below.
