...they've just released a new video, this time for 'Parasitic Twins' , the atmospheric closing track to the magnificent Option Paralysis . You can check it out after the jump. It's an interesting choice of single, given that main vocal duties on the track is shared by Dillinger's second guitarist, Jeff Tuttle, rather than just being handled the band's regular frontman, Greg Puciato . Tuttle, of course, also happens to be the lead vocalist in Old Gods , his LOUD AS ALL HELL side-project who we [...]
We've said it before, and we'll say it again - as far as touring line-ups go, the combination of Mastodon, The Dillinger Escape Plan and Red Fang has set the bar for 2012. Given that Mastodon put out the Thrash Hits Album of 2011 , The Dillinger Escape Plan put out the Thrash Hits album of 2010 , and Red Fang are one of our favourite up'n'coming crushers, it's gonna take one heck of a tour to top this. When the tour arrived in Manchester, our man [...]
Dillinger Escape Plan have just released their video for the Option Paralysis featuring track, "Parasitic Twins". The David Merenyi directed number sees an elderly lady working in a factory shop working with water jets creating a plaque for the band. She's a big fan, evidently and a gentleman manages to get himself lucky by claiming he's in the band it would appear. See what you make of it up at the top and if you want to check these guys out live, which is 100% a treat for your senses, they're on tour with Mastodon [...]

Let me preface this by saying this is not metal news. This is gossip. But shut the hell up, this is still worthy of a post. The frontman of Dillinger Escape Plan, Greg Puciato has been in LA the last few months, and now we can assume why. He is dating porn starlet Jenna Haze, ...
Axl wore his most vile death metal shirt in an attempt to avoid being selected as a juror in this great City of New York, but lo and behold, his plan backfired and he was chosen anyway. So it's been the Vince party over here since Wednesday with plenty of help from all of our [...]

Last week's most amusing news item came from Dillinger Escape Plan singer Greg Puciato (above, center), who made public his thanks and apologies to local emergency responders who helped him out during a half-day drug freakout. (Reviewing Puciato's account of the unnamed substance's effects, one could settle on mushrooms as the likely culprit.) As party [...]

At my first paid gig as a music journalimalist, my editor wasn't really hands-on with workshopping or edits or assignments. Let's call him the Rick Rubin of print editors, as he was grotesquely overpaid, forever claiming unearned credit, and often seen shoveling bizarre food up his blabhole. But I did get his attention once when [...]
Internet Metal Nerds and real-life metal fans alike have been pretty bonered about Argonauts, the new band featuring vocalist Dimitri Minakakis (ex-The Dillinger Escape Plan), guitarist John Adubato (Burnt by the Sun), bassist Brett Bamberger (East of the Wall, The Binary Code's old touring line-up), and drummer Dave Witte (Municipal Waste + every band ever). Axl saw [...]
Leaving aside the fact that reporting this and speculating on it makes us a mere step above the ambulance-chasing antics of TMZ, we couldn't help but raise an eyebrow at a blog posted this morning by The Dillinger Escape Plan's super-hench frontman, Greg Puciato. Specifically, a blog about a recent near-death/near-insanity experience he had this past weekend under the influence of....something. We're reading a few things between the lines here, as you'll see in just a minute, but we don't think we're making [...]

We don't know about you, but all this pre-Christmas to'ing and fro'ing has left us exhausted . We've decorated Thrash Hits towers with far too much tinsel, we've already stuffed our guts with so many mince pies we think we're growing a third buttock. We think we deserve to buy ourselves a Christmas treat - thankfully our old friends, The Dillinger Escape Plan , have come along to our rescue. We'll let the band's guitarist, Ben Weinman, explain what's going on: What is getting [...]
