Report
The Dillinger Escape Plan Bring Chaos to KY
Live shows are always about taking the good with the bad. December 6th at Headliners Music Hall in Louisville, KY would be no different. The bad things: Severely insufficient parking, The long, seemingly endless line to the door in the blustery cold, outrageous alcohol prices, fans trying to scream through their cell phone rather than taking in the performances, young couples bickering and opinionated Machine Head fans. This is all normal. Fortunately the bands came through in spades. A toasty venue, responsive bartenders, and expedient band crews didn’t hurt matters either. More...

Genghis Tron To Enter Studio
Genghis Tron will enter Godcity studios in Salem, MA next week to begin recording their Relapse Records debut. The group will be working with producer (and Converge guitarist) Kurt Ballou. The still-untitled album is expected to see an early-2008 release. The band comments:
"Time does NOT fly when you're parked in front of a computer for eight months making an epic, synth-driven, psychedelic dirge about the end of all time. That's why we're elated to get the fuck out of West Philly and finally record the album that has nearly driven us insane on more than thirty-five occasions...each. It's going to be a beautiful thing once it's done and we can't wait for everyone to share in our paralyzing fear of the future!"
Genghis Tron To Release Tour-Only EP
Genghis Tron will release a limited edition, tour-only EP while on the road in July. Titled "Triple Black Diamond," the release will feature live tracks, remixes, a demo of a new track, and reinterpretations of material from the group's "Dead Mountain Mouth" album. The band sums up the effort in this manner: "the EP will be similar in packaging to our last tour EP, 'Cape Of Hate,' only this time it will have way better shit on it and the art is even more killer."
