Mike Patton is awesome in so many ways. The guy oozes creativity.


I LOVE The Dillinger Escape Plan! So many great songs to choose from, I wouldn't even know where to begin. Setting Fire to Sleeping Giants is probably my favourite song from them but so many other songs come so close.

Not to bust your balls or anything, but you say this a lot and really never elaborate quite enough for how much you're into him (judging by your avatar and username).

I don't need to elaborate. His projects speak for themselves.

I don't mean in the sense of you telling us about his music. I'm very much familiar with his work. I mean elaborating on why you think he's so awesome. Ah, you know, forget it. Who am I to ask anyone to explain themselves? Go crazy with it.

Um...my answer was why I think he's awesome.

Heh, yeah. One of my favourites, too. Going to see them next weekend.

On the downside, I just got my Lurch/Sick on Sunday shirts in the mail. The Lurch one is the wrong size, blah.

I was expecting you guys to tear Ire Works apart. I'm pleasantly surprised to see that most of you have looked past some of the songs' more simplistic approaches, as opposed to the older Under the Running Board and Calculating Infinity techniques of ramming quadratic equations down your throat in record times: as awesome as that may be.

I thought that Ire Works demonstrated more of their personal tastes instead of perhaps pandering to fans who are still waiting for another Calculating Infinity. Not to remove any credit from their older work. Songs like "43% Burnt", "Sunshine the Werewolf", "Panasonic Youth" and "The Running Board" are untouchably heavy in their own respects.

But when I first heard the tracks "Milk Lizard" and "Mouth of Ghosts", it was the first time that I was really surprised by what they were doing. It was unexpected.

Now to address the Irony is a Dead Scene EP. I think it was just a great example of a prolific musician who had the time to do whatever he wanted in the studio with whoever wanted to do it with, finding a band that really impressed him and giving them some well-earned attention. Because not too many people knew about the DEP until that album came out. It basically took them from a band that you didn't want opening for you to a band that you would feel nervous about opening for.

That being said, Gil Sharon is a ****in' maniac. I think I actually prefer his approach to Chris Pennie's.

I still haven't listened to Calculating Infinity but I expect that it's a collection of songs that sound similar to the more chaotic songs on Ire Works and Miss Machine. And the vocals are probably weaker.

But, since I've been listening to Dillinger a lot more recently, I'll definitely look into this one.

It's a classic, dude. Check it out ASAP.
