In this episode I sit down with Jordan Dreyer of La Dispute to talk about two lines of lyrics that mean a lot to him. One comes from Gastr del Sol and theirsong Blues Subtitles No Sense Of Wonder, a track that says so little yet feels so big. The other is from La Dispute’s own Self-Portrait Backwards, off their new record No One Was Driving The Car, where fragments of memory and moments of life turn into an art exhibition.
We talk about what it means to express yourself through lyrics, about avoiding in life but opening up in art, and about the strange weight that creating something carries. It’s a conversation about songs, but also about the things that stay with you long after they’ve been written.
La Dispute's new record No One Was Driving The Car is out now.
