"La Dispute have raised the bar of the post-hardcore genre...". La Dispute are known as a heavy and emotive post-hardcore band. You either scream your soul out along with them or dismiss them as being “too angst-y”. But with their third full-length album, Rooms Of The House, La Dispute have raised the bar of the post-hardcore genre, and in doing so have left very little room for criticism.

[UPDATE] Video will be back up soon - we
