Dillinger Escape Plan Issues Recording Update
The Dillinger Escape Plan has issued the following update about their recent activity and their studio recording time:
"Not much time. Busy with this record. Fuck Yeah Fest was killer, the last two NIN shows we played were killer, our new album's gonna be killer, we're killer, you guys are killer, blah blah. The series of weekly video blogs from the studio will be coming every Monday (or Tuesday morning if it's a little late!) throughout the entire time we're in the studio.
"Ok.....we'll be back soon. The last two Limited Edition Ire Works T-Shirts(When Acting As A Wave, and Mouth Of Ghosts), as well as the Remix EP we've been working on, are forthcoming. Sorry I don't have more for you right now, we're just BUSY getting this record done. Talk to you guys soon, hope you all are doing great!
"PS....You know what's hilarious? The fact that people are losing their minds over Kanye West doing whatever he did while Taylor Swift was accepting her award for best whatever at the VMAs(didn't they stop showing videos like a decade ago?!) without realizing that when they talk about that shit they are OUTING THEMSELVES AS ACTUALLY HAVING TUNED INTO THE VMAS! DORKS!!! DOOOOORKSSS!!!! Next time someone tries to talk to you about that shit just cut them off by yelling a short powerful "DORK" in their face and quickly walking the other way as if you just ran into a forcefield of inpenetrable dorkness. Works like this and saves you from time wasting idiocy: Some Idiot: 'Dude did you see what Kanye W-' You: 'DORK!!!!!' (immediately head in opposite direction of said dork)"

Dillinger Escape Plan Issues Recording Update
The Dillinger Escape Plan has posted two short teaser clips for their upcoming album, which can be viewed below. The band has also issued the following recording update:
"Ok....sorry for the lack of recent updates, but we've had our noses to the grind lately getting this record written, and haven't seen the light of day much. If you've been paying attention to our twitter accounts, you know that we've leaked TWO demo snippets so far. We usually demo the entire record pretty extensively before we enter the studio, so that we don't waste too time fiddling around once we get in there.
"We'll be using this myspace as well as our twitters to update you throughout the recording process, so stay tuned.
"Latest BIG news though, is that we are playing a show in Los Angeles to kick off the whole recording process. September 5th, we've been added to FYF Fest(formerly Fuck Yeah Fest!....but I guess the new abbreviation now makes it...Fuck Yeah Fest...Fest?). Get PSYCHED if you live around here. This means that for the first time in a long time...DEP and CONVERGE are gonna be playing together!!!! Other killer bands playing include Torche, Lightning Bolt, Fucked Up, and more. Don't miss out. It's only a $20 ticket, at the Los Angeles State Park in Downtown LA, and it's for a good cause! The fest aims to raise awareness of the possible closure of up to 100 State Parks due to recent California budget cuts. It's gonna be nice to play and have fun before the pure torture of recording starts. More...

Dillinger Escape Plan Discusses European Tour
Back from a two-week European tour, DILLINGER ESCAPE PLAN look back on the gigs with the following comments:
"We just wrapped up a quick two weeks of European shows, starting in Long Island and finishing up in Finland.", singer Greg Puciato starts. "Every show was invigorating for us, including a lot of places we haven't played in a really long time. Our producer Steve Evetts had a revelation and decided that he will no longer be producing records but would rather come with us and do lights for free, so if anyone wants a free light guy he's your guy! In typical light guy fashion, the quality of the shows quickly became measured by "how killer the lights were" that night. When we go in to the studio in a month Steve will probably have strobe lights and a smoke machine in the vocal booth. Anyhow, we played with a ton of great bands over in Europe, in a ton of unsuspecting places that kick hordes of ass like Poland and Belgium. What did we learn? We learned that Alex Skolnick from Testament pretty much drives the school bus of metal guitar soloing...blindfolded, and with his feet. We learned that 99% of Europeans have never seen a Mexican. We learned that German bus drivers think it's ok to drink beer and drive because they are 'rock and rollers!' We have a month and a few days to finish writing our new album, 'Option Paralysis,' before we record from the end of August to the beginning of October. We'll be checking in from our Myspace and Twitter accounts and all that stuff, and we'll be sneaking you song titles and snippets of demos as well as behind the scenes videos from now until the release."

Dillinger Escape Plan Issues Band Update
Dillinger Escape Plan front man Greg Puciato has issued the following band update / political commentary:
"Ok so sitting backstage at Reggie's Rock Club in Chicago, about to eat some dinner, figured I'd check in with you guys. First off, thanks to everyone who has come out so far...to Long Island, to Philadelphia, to DC, to Raleigh, to Bonnaroo, to Pontiac. These shows have been amazing and very invigorating for us as a band. Every one of these shows has been shockingly high energy, and the vibe between us and you guys has never been higher. Last night alone, when within seconds the stage barricade was pushed over and eventually taken out, fuuuuuck. There are people coming who have seen us 50 times, 20 times, 7 times, and many people who are just seeing us for the first time. All coming separately, but all leaving as one big sweaty blob ready to tell posers everywhere to SUCK IT. More...
Dillinger Escape Plan Signs To Season Of Mist
Dillinger Escape Plan has announced that they have terminated their contract with Relapse Records and will now be working on the Season Of Mist label instead. A statement from guitarist Ben Weinman reads:
"It is becoming clear that as the music industry standard continues to morph and change on a daily basis, artistic and operational freedom has become a band’s most valuable asset. 100% free of all previous contractual ties, Dillinger is in an amazing position to collaborate with some interesting partners which will continue to nurture the ethic that we have been doing our best to stay true to for over 10 years now. While touring Europe in support of our record, Ire Works, I had the pleasure of meeting Michael Berberian, distributor and owner of the independent record label Season of Mist. It quickly became clear that we had very similar ideas about Dillinger’s music and its place in the underground. Season of Mist has always been a leader in releasing some of the most extreme and interesting metal and experimental music. We look forward to releasing our next full length effort in association with Season of Mist as the very first chapter of this new journey. Also, Michael’s last name almost spells out Barbarian which Greg was really excited about."
Dillinger Escape Plan Frontman Issues Band Update
Dillinger Escape Plan's Greg Puciato has issued the following long political blog followed by a short band update (skip to the bottom for the band info):
"I'm gonna dive right into this. I hope you have about twenty minutes to kill. If you just wanna read some musical news and skip the rest go down to the bottom.
"I just read a new gallop poll, dated two days ago, that said “the majority of Americans (53%) approve of the U.S. government’s expansion to help fix the current economic crisis, but most of this group would like to see the government’s role reduced once the crisis is over”. I hope if you are reading this and you are one of the 53% you PULL YOUR HEAD OUT OF YOUR ASS, because...NEWS FLASH...in case you haven't noticed.....it's not really a habit of government to EVER get smaller once it's allowed to get bigger. Government expansion in times of crisis NEVER dies back down once the crisis is over, it's a ratchet effect that only gets tighter and tighter. More...

Dillinger Escape Plan Issues Band Update
Dillinger Escape Plan has issued the following band update and show details:
"So we are about to play our first shows in the past 6 months. Boy are we getting fat and lazy. Time to start being kick ass and riggady again (made that word up I think). Do we even remember how to be kick ass and riggady? I guess you will have to come to these little shows and find out.
Feb 5th - Philly - The Barbary(SOLD OUT, MOTHERLICKERS)
Feb 6th - Baltimore - The Ottobar
Feb 7th - NYC - The Studio at Webster Hall
Feb 8th - NJ - Soon to be Announced Basement show (man i feel bad for this basement)
"We would like to officially thank all of you who have taken the time to call our new drummer Billy the Nip and haze his ass. Especially the guy who thought it was a good idea to text him the word “faggot” 5001 times. Ok he gets the point! Most of you had really cool things to say to him though which was very precious. I can’t say I would have been as nice but cool of you none the less.
"Time to talk a little bit about the opening bands for these shows. We’re extra excited for you to check these guys out. Ben Weinman rarely gives guitar lessons (probably because most kids don’t want to be taught how to break a guitar into about 100 pieces before you even play 2 notes and then get kicked out of his house) but has taken on like 3 students in his day. Oddly enough, all three of these students ended up having serious degrees of awesomeness in one way or another and will be performing as part of these shows. More...
Dillinger Escape Plan Announces Basement Show
Dillinger Escape Plan has issued the following update about upcoming shows and a special basement performance:
"Ok so the upcoming schedule as of now with ticket links is as follows:
Feb 5th - Philly - The Barbary(SOLD OUT, MOTHERLICKERS)
Feb 6th - Baltimore - The Ottobar
Feb 7th - NYC - The Studio at Webster Hall
"Remember, these shows are NOT the biggest rooms in the world, so don't sleep on getting tickets early. Oh and Baltimore, so help me God if the Ottobar show isn't the unholy destructive force that you guys always make it, I'm gonna be majorly disappointed. It's a Friday night. Don't hold back.
"Now, for something that you deffffinitely haven't seen in a reaallllllly long time.... we are playing....on February 8th......in New Jersey.....IN A BASEMENT. That's right. We're playing a fucking BASEMENT SHOW. The location of which is going to be completely secret until a few days beforehand, when we'll announce the location. Maybe we'll announce it here, maybe we'll announce it on our messageboard, maybe it'll be spraypainted on an overpass on the NJ Turnpike, maybe Asian Steve will run naked across the field at Super Bowl halftime with a flag bearing the address, who knows. I CAN tell you that the maximum capacity of this actual house basement will probably be in the double digits. Obviously we'll cram in as many people as possible, and probably do a little barbecue too. We may start doing random intimate things like this in the middle of seemingly normal tours in the future,so be ready. If you're in Jersey and you wanna see some crazy shit go down and endanger your life, show up at your own risk. More...
