Somewhere at the Bottom of the River Between Vega and Altair [2LP] Vinyl
La Dispute's seminal debut Somewhere at the Bottom of the River Between Vega and Altair arrives as a powerful 2LP vinyl release—an essential for any post-hardcore collection. Originally released on November 11, 2008, via No Sleep Records, the album helped redefine the genre with its fusion of poetic lyricism, raw emotion, and dynamic instrumentation. The ambitious title draws inspiration from an Asian folktale, which serves as a loose narrative thread throughout the album, weaving stories of love, loss, and longing.
Critically acclaimed and widely regarded as a cornerstone of modern post-hardcore, this debut set La Dispute apart for its literary approach and cathartic intensity. The dual-LP format does justice to the album’s depth and range, allowing each track—from explosive peaks to fragile spoken-word moments—to breathe. Whether you're a longtime fan or new to their discography, this pressing is a must-have for appreciating La Dispute’s impactful beginning in full analog warmth.
