Sweet

I don't really care for Dillinger after their line up change. I loved Calculating Infinity though. I personally think their new album sucks.

[Me2NiK]

My favourite album by them has always been Miss Machine. Ire Works was my least favourite but it was still imo a phenomenal album. Dillinger is most definitely one of my favourite bands of all time and I sincerely hope they decide to come up to Canada.

[metalb0y]

They're pretty cool...ire works is alright. But we not here to bash good or bad albums! This is about tour dates....i'd love to see them live but i stay in south africa so basically It's like imposibile

[MeGaDeth2314]

I don't know, after hearing Ire Works, I'm wondering if the new drummer will even be able to play some of their old songs.

[ninjaface]

People really like these guys? From what I've seen it's just a bunch of dudes having a complete spazz attack to the worst prog metal shit I've ever heard. I think they jump around erractically in some weak attempt to get the crowd into it. Either way, these dudes suck harder than a shop vac on crack.

Dude, go see them live. Gil went through Panasonic Youth and 43% Burnt with no problem whatsoever. I'd kill to see them again, especially with Pig Destroyer.

[TeenBite]

I just saw them in England and I thought I was going to die. Insane show. Also, Gil was flawless on all their songs.

ninjaface: my thoughts exactly, I've seen them on festival 3 weeks ago - it was mostly terrible, the only thing worth listening to were drums

I agree, I saw them in 06 and it was just a bunch of noise, I couldn't hear the so called "technicality" of their music. And it's not like I don't listen to heavy or technical music(Meshuggah, Psyopus, Gorguts), but I just don't see it with this band.

[GOALIE]

Seen them twice because they were on the bill for the bands I went to see.....I agree with everyone who thinks that this band plays random noise. I second with the jumping around randomly as well.

[areyouabadfish2]

the new drummer can definitly keep up with calculating infinity. as far as this "random noise shit" goes, all of you can take a bow..you deserve it. eat shit, you've earned it. straight from dimitri

Oh cripes. Meshugga is so overrated as a "technical" band. They have poly-rhythm once in a while and that's it, and that isn't that impressive. This band has skills, and that's that. Just because you don't get it, does not mean it isn't technical or they make "noise."

Anyway, all i can say is, why Pig Destroyer and Mayhem. Lol, man, i would pay NOT to see those bands. Hahah. I'm excited for the US tour, and still upset that they toured with Between the Buried and Me in EUROPE and not here, man that would have been sweet.

[F8iscruel]

ive heard like one song by these guys and im hooked so enigmatic and interesting, btw its milk lizard

[Lokibord]

dillinger kicks ass!... saw them when they played in stockholm a few weeks ago, absolutly one of the best concerts i have ever been on. Ben Weinman kicked ass, and also jumped on my arm....it was glorious i tell ye

[LegsOnEarth]

advice: go see them. seriously.

[jesus-mobile]

didn't they do the song "unretrofied"?

btw, don't claim to know about them, never even heard them.

checked.

[motorbreath_445]

the new album is so good. i hope to christ they come to canada

[indychino]

Hahaha. Chris Pennie is still in the photo

[JRowe3388]

DEP is ****ing rad

[Josh D]

Wtf, Dillinger, Pig Destroyer, At The Gates and Mayhem? I'd like to see that line-up! Too bad Japan is like the other side of the globe from Europe -_-

[The Spoon]

Ire works is an awesome album

[ICreamsodAI]

imo ire works pwns face

not their best but still great



cant wait for the tour

[Staes]

saw them this week in belgium (also saw them 3 years ago) and their show is just the best ever. so energetic. there's no band like these guys.

[bootyking69]

Calculating Infinity was there best that cd just owns its so brutal.. after miss machine i stopped paying attention..
