Dispatch - EP

I love dispatch and I love there really rock an loud stuff but I love the song valentine. Best song…

Welcome back Dispatch

It's so great to finally hear more from Dispatch. Their breakup left a hole in my heart. However, while this is definitely a good set of songs, it seems to be missing the coherence of earlier works, perhaps because they've haven't been working together for a while. Some of the songs remind me more of Chad's band, State Radio, rather than true Dispatch songs. By all means I salute the influences coming from each member's solo projects, however what I do miss is the focused, equal blending of all three voices. Dispatch amazed me with their harmonies, especially the 3-part harmonies, and I worry this EP is somewhat lacking in that area, for the most part. The band of equals seems a bit more like a band of 3 solo artists reuniting. While this is literally the truth, the music reflects that in a slightly unfortunate way. Regardless, LONG LIVE DISPATCH, and I will happily support any new songs they come out with next!

They are back and better than ever!

I've been a big dispatch fan for a long time, and I should probably cut them more slack since they haven't recorded in a decade, but I wasn't too impressed with this EP. The songs are alright, but they seem to lack the happy summer groove feel of before. The production and instrumentation feels a little too thick and heavy to me with a lot more intense guitar sounds as opposed to the simple and tasteful lines from before. This album doesn't sound so much like a dispatch project, but a reconciliation of 3 different solo projects. It's good, but I was hoping for something better. I can't really predict myself singing and playing along with these tracks, they just don't excite me like the old stuff.

What can I say? Just saw them last weekend in Boston. Awesome show. I hope there are many more to come.

I just saw them in concer in boston on the 24th of June 2011. They played Melon Bend from this EP. it was awesome... they never fail to make good wholesome music

I bought this EP at the same time as Manchester Orchestra ' s "Simple Math" when it first came out, at first hmmm not as good as "steeples" but NOW I Love it! Listening to them is as good as Coronas with Chicken Nachos! Mmmmm.... Very good. It has a good reggae vibe that I crave. Con man and Broken American are good. I was pleasantly surprised worth the money.

This EP is great, every song is fantastic. I saw them last night at RedBull Arena and the show was crazy.

Dispatch Is unbelievable!!!! UNBELIEVABLE!!!!
