The Dillinger Escape Plan have posted the following update:
"Over the past year and a half, the most chaotic time of our career, many have speculated on our possible demise, including ourselves at times. Now after everything, we have what we feel is easily the best album we have ever created, and the feeling in the air has never been more exciting. We are proud to announce that ‘Ire Works‘ will be coming out on November 13th, and that we will be embarking on our first North American headlining tour since Dec 2005 in October. All dates will be posted as they are confirmed, some are up now. Support will come from A Life Once Lost, Genghis Tron, and Behold…the Arctopus.
More album updates, including tracklisting and maaaaaybe a new song in our player, tour dates, and video blogs, coming soon. Stay tuned. We’re fucking back. A little something we like to call ‘kicking everyone’s ass’ is about to happen. Thank you all for waiting. Can’t wait to see you all.
PS. For all you dorks that like to get involved in message boards, we now have one of our very own here. Word on lame street has it that Ben Weinman hangs out there in his time off from full time ass kicking answering questions about anything from gear to shows to swamp monsters. Register and talk shit about one another, arrange where to meet to come to our shows, start a gang, talk about how cool or uncool we used to be or are, or speculate on how you can all help initiate our new stage left guitar geek Jeff Tuttle when you see him onstage. Tackling, thrown objects, heckles, or all of the above are accepted.
PPS. Most of our previous video blogs are up in MySpace video, and our new ones will be there as well, so now you can just click there and check them out instead of searching on YouTube for things like ‘coolest videos ever’ or ‘most handsome drummer.’"
