just be relistening to these freaks again -- 'cut the apex' is just immense - when it suddenly cuts out at the end, my ears were truly ringing. real intense stuff. And I noticed people looking up to my flat in a nonplussed manner as they passed, whch is a good sign.
on a side note, I think I know why Anus uses repeated Rs. The R key on this keyboard is stuck down, so frequently throws up repeat Rs when I press it.

yup, they did a cover of that on their 'irony is a dead scene' ep - I like it, but it's not their best - probably the weakest track on the whole EP. Check out their debut LP 'calculating infinity' for a real slice of chaotic noise ! :)

the eponymous ep is real good - only very short, with very short tracks. I prefe 'calculating infinity' to 'irony is a dead scene', mainly as it is longer :D

well they've got a new singer recently, and i heard he's been described as intellectual and "preppy" looking.. like fans were making fun of the way he looked on their message board or something.. but i guess you'd have to be a pretty intelligent person to be able to sing well to their off-timed-madness they call music..

No moshing at a Dillinger gig? Possibly impossible :)
Their new singer - Greg - is the huge bastard with a voice like a banshee. I dunno if he's any more versatile than Dimitri, not a lot. He sounds alright on the Billy Idol cover they did - if that was him, not sure of the line up for that. Infinity is fantastic tho and I hope the new full length gives them more recognition.

"Calculating Infinity" is a pretty damned interesting record. It's just about the most technically complex metal I've heard. I saw them live late last year and their show is pretty chaotic. I don't like the new singer as much as Dmitri and after hearing the new song (without Patton) they played on their BBC Sessions ("50V Phantom Your Band Sucks" - what an awful title), I'm beginning to fear for the future of the DEP. That sentence was long and confusing, sorry.

Dillinger is amazing.
I believe there is a peel session they did with their new singer on it. If so, this is the only existing music with their new singer. Except for bootlegs, of course...
I saw them play sometime last year and it was rather amazing. The singer does all the old stuff well and seems to be eager to record new stuff.
Mike Patton, in my opinion, is awful, and I really don't understand how people enjoy him so much, or why dillinger would even want to work with him.

sorry everyone, but their new singer blows. i've seen him live. he screams one, very high pitch. it's. dimitri was a much better singer and wrote more interesting lyrics besides, in my opinion.
after hearing their track on the underworld soundtrack, i'm totally not interested in their music anymore (the new stuff).
calculating infinity and those eps are all really excellent, though. i enjoy those very much.

new cd:
there are some good songs and some bad songs. and some mixed up. then there are some awful drum machine electric hardcore fusion songs with singing of the reznor-esque. those are AWFUL.
it'll be pretty hard to top calculating infinity. ever.

I used to be into Dillinger before I bought Drukqs and my life was forever changed... My favourite release of theirs was probably Under The Running Board and Sandbox Magician was probably my favourite of their tracks. I was really into Drowningman as well. You guys heard them?

I love the sound of this record, I just wish there were some better songs on it. It starts strong and gets slightly diluted the longer it goes on for me. I always find it slightly uncomfortable when a band wears it's influences so strongly as well, especially on a sophomore effort. Up to and including 'Phone Home' they seem to be forging an excellent new slant on their old sound, then on 'SFTSG' they turn into a Mr Bungle/Tomahawk tribute band. Fair play to the vocalist, I didn't know he was that versatile, but to hear him apeing Patton so openly jarrs for some reason, even given their work with Patton in the past. The fucking NIN *spit* track is ok, but again the voice impersonation puts me off. The last track is excellent, more like the early songs - and highly reminsicent of Morbid Angel. What I liked about Dillinger as soon as I heard them was there was absolutely NO cheese about them. All heavy metal cliches are completely abscent from UTRB and CI. It's not really the case with this album. Good stuff I think, but not worth waiting five years for a second full-length
r40f - the live performances of CI songs he does use pretty much the one high pitched bark but then Dimitri's vocals are fairly one dimensional, he should put his own spin on them cause the variety of shouts he uses on 'Panasonic Youth' (video available at www.pitvideoz.com - it's not that good tho) are plentiful. The video of 'Sugar Coated Sour' live at Reading 2002 is fucking awesome, check that out if you ain't seen it.

I thought this album was disappointing. Most of the songs are just less interesting remakes of Calculating Infinity tracks, with a little bit of "experimentation" thrown in that just sucks. I'm a big fan of experimental metal (Pelican, Isis, all this genre bending stuff) but I don't think this is done right. Admittedly I haven't listened to Miss Machine too much yet but that's because I find it fucking boring. I can't wait for the new MASTODON record on 8/31

jaworski - you've got a point, dimitri wasn't the strongest or most innovative singer, but at least on the records he solidly got the job done. to be fair, all i've heard on record sung by greg is that track on the underworld soundtrack, but i absolutely hate that song. so he has left a bad first impression on me. and thanks for the link, but i can't get the video to work at the moment...

mp3s for the uninitiated.
panasonic youth isn't the trainwreck that b.f.c. is, but it's nowhere near as interesting to me as their old stuff. the vocals really take away from the song, i think. especially towards the end - it's so squealy-sounding...
