dillinger escape plan • option paralysis
got to see the band on this tour at reggie's in chicago and it was NUTS
pretty sure greg climbed up to the ceiling from the stage
openers were:
iwrestledabearonce
animals as leaders (whose set got cut short)
darkest hour

dillinger escape plan • ire works
this album felt so odd when it came out, and i still think it's a bit of a transition period for the band after losing chris, but there's some KILLER songs on here
mouth of ghosts & horse hunter are all-timers

dillinger escape plan • miss machine
"baby's first coffin" was released on the underworld soundtrack ahead of this album & greg fucking blew me away, which spurred me to seek out both Error & Spylacopa
i also got to see the band live on this tour & they opened with hollywood squares 🤯

dillinger escape plan • irony is a dead scene
and here's what REALLY got me into the band, because i was already a huge mike patton fan, and the idea of DEP covering my favorite (at the time) aphex twin song was mind-blowing

dillinger escape plan • calculating infinity
when my guitar teacher showed this to me when i was 14, i had a hard time wrapping my head around it, but i'm so thankful to him for exposing me to a band that would become one of my favorites

dillinger escape plan • under the running board
i got into dillinger between dmitri leaving and greg joining, and i prefer greg, but this early stuff is still fucking great
sadly i don't have the self-titled EP on vinyl so i'm starting here
