DILLINGER ESCAPE PLAN - IRE WORKS LP Red vinyl - excellent album


The Dillinger Escape Plan is an American mathcore band from Morris Plains, New Jersey. The group originated in 1997 after the disbanding of Arcane, a hardcore punk trio consisting of Ben Weinman, Dimitri Minakakis, and Chris Pennie.[1] The band's current line-up consists of guitarist Ben Weinman, bassist Liam Wilson, vocalist Greg Puciato, guitarist Jeff Tuttle and drummer Billy Rymer. Their band name is derived from the famous convicted bank robber John Dillinger.

The Dillinger Escape Plan completed their follow-up album to Miss Machine in 2007, entitled Ire Works, produced by Steve Evetts at his studio Omen Room in Los Angeles. Drums were recorded at Sonikwire Studios in Irvine, California.[8] On June 15, the band announced the title of the album as well as confirming the departure of Chris Pennie (now with Coheed and Cambria[9]). Gil Sharone of Stolen Babies handled drum duties for the album.[10] Ire Works was released on November 13, 2007. The album debuted on the Billboard 200 at #142 with 7,000 copies scanned, but was later corrected when it was revealed that Relapse somehow forgot to scan the pre-release album sales, which made the first week total actually around 11,000.

Missing from the new line up was guitarist Brian Benoit, who had left the band because of injury. Although assured his place in the band is secure should he ever be able to perform again,[11] Jeff Tuttle (formerly of Heads Will Roll and Capture the Flag) has taken his place on stage. Tuttle, however, does not make an appearance on the record.[12]

Ire Works has been a critical and commercial success, with the album being on many critics' top ten lists, making it the band's most critically successful album. Allmusic said that "DEP should be careful, or they'll end up the Radiohead of metalcore." On February 6, 2008, the band had two songs from Ire Works broadcasted on two television programs in the United States. The song "Milk Lizard" was featured on the CSI: NY episode "Playing With Matches",[13] and the band performed live the song "Black Bubblegum" on Late Night with Conan O'Brien.[14] In January 2009 Gil Sharone left the band. Billy Rymer was then confirmed to be the band's new drummer.
