Dispyt To Release “Från melankoli till meningslöshet” On April 29 Via Elitbolaget

On April 29, Finnish hardcore outfit Dispyt release their latest full-length album Från melankoli till meningslöshet (“From Melancholy to Meaninglessness”) through Elitbolaget, available as a 10” vinyl and on all digital platforms.

The album contains nine tracks of bleak, aggressive crust punk laced with black metal, continuing the band’s exploration of personal, societal, and existential collapse. The sound is raw, direct, and rooted in the band’s Northern heritage, drawing from the traditions of d-beat, Scandinavian hardcore, and harsh, dissonant metal.

Dispyt features Mathias “Vreth” Lillmåns (Finntroll, …and Oceans) on vocals and bass and Owe Inborr (Ondfødt, Noise Aholic) on guitars and Tommi Tuhkala on drums.

In the lead-up to the release, Dispyt has dropped three singles:

•    “Livslustens katakomber” with B-side remake of the track Sommarstaden

•    “Tomhetens madrigal” with B-side remake of the track Total Alkoholist

•    “Men sist och slutligen handlar ju ändå allting om döden”, with B-side remake of the track I skuggan av slälvförakt and a Shitlickers cover of War Systems along with a music video, produced together with Jorma from Smeen, using analog video techniques to match the band’s stripped-back and harsh aesthetic.

The record marks another step in Dispyt’s body of work — honest, abrasive, and without illusion. It captures a mood of decline without spectacle, a world where meaning slowly slips away, and where sound remains a tool for confronting what’s left behind.
