Title: La Dispute – Somewhere at the Bottom of the River Between the Vega and the Altar
Year: 2008
Condition: New
Description: Released in 2008 on No Sleep Records, this debut album introduced La Dispute from Grand Rapids, Michigan, to the wider underground. The band became known for playing in VFW halls and DIY spaces, earning a reputation for intense performances where singer Jordan Dreyer often performed on the floor with the crowd. The record is tied to the late-2000s wave of independent labels and touring networks that reshaped how heavy, emotional music spread outside of the mainstream industry.
