The low-energy nuclear spectrum, below the particle emission threshold, provides valuable information on nuclear structure. In particular, it can reveal the deformed, vibrational or cluster structure of a nucleus. Especially well documented are positive-parity states of even multipolarity and isoscalar octupole states of negative parity which can be highly collective. On the other hand, the collectivity of isoscalar dipole (ISD) states is obscured by the fact that their gamma decay is isospin-forbidden to lowest order and therefore weak. In addition, they cannot be described within the standard collective model. Their studies have been spotty and as a result useful information might be awaiting to be mined. In this talk we will focus on the possibility to experimentally complete the mapping of ISD states along the N = Z line.
