Dillinger Escape Plan Interview

[Pat Marquez]

I will be interviewing Greg from The Dillinger Escape Plan this friday when they play Chicago. Leave any questions you may have for him in the comments!

[Rohan Kohli]

What's the weirdest/craziest thing they've done at a show?

Are you on 'roids?

Working on any new material? What does it sound like?

Will you shit in my mouth please?

What's it like to have started such a tech-metal craze?

Blah blah. I dunno, your interviews are good, I bet it'll be awesome.

[Paul Diggity]

Ask something along the lines of "How does it feel to be the vocalist of a band that has had so many awesome vocalists in the past, and why are you so freaking awesome and scary when you perform live?"

Actually don't do that, that would be a terrible question. Maybe just give him props for stepping up the the place and blowing away the skeptics.

[Kiss Of Octopus]

well that one interview where he answered like 200 questions was enough for me.


but maybe ill see you at the show man.

[odnetnin]

What happened to Ben when Greg threw the staircase into the air and landed on his head during their final song in Tucson, Arizona? (Because I never found out what happened afterward) I truely would appreciate it.

[anishkabob]

whats the new stuff sound like?

hows the label situation working out?

i dont have any others.

[FASSWcore]

how long did it take him to get so huge? his veins look like pythons

[Pat Marquez]

[outsouthodj]

ask if the shitting on stage story is true

[Rohan Kohli]

ask if the shitting on stage story is true

It is.

[MalevolentHoff]

What kind of emotions does your live set invoke in you (angry, pure insanity, happiness, etc.) which makes your live set so epic?

How has the tour been so far with BTBAM, Horse, Hella? How are the guys in each band? Any crazy substance fueled nights of legend on this tour? Etc.

Have you guys ever considered writing songs for pop artists like Ashlee Simpson? (say this line with as much sarcasm as fitting) If all else fails, you can make some serious loot off of one song haha.

Who would win in a fight: Ian Anderson from Jethro Tull or David Johansen from the New York Dolls?

P.S. Whenever I listen to Miss Machine, I just smile cause your voice is just fuckin brutal, but amazing.

[wesgemm08]

all i want to know is how the new record is coming along and if they have any idea of an approximate date when it will be out

[selftitled85]

[I.O]

How does it feel to have legs that are to big for girls pants?

[Criesofthepast7]

How does it feel to have legs that are to big for girls pants?

haha.

[hXc_pwnage]

When can we hear any new songs?

Place that has the craziest show?

I would like him to shit on my chest, how do I get in contact with him?

How did he start screaming? Was it just natural?

Any new band recs?

[FurElise]

does he wish he was as cool as mike patton?

does he find himself trying to sing like him?

[drumbum69]

how does it feel to be a GOD of tech metal ?

[ghostyouare]

ask him to make out with you.

[CrucifiedHeart]

Ask him how he feels about moshing and if he ever comes across shit like big dudes beating up smaller dudes or if theres anything that bothers him about moshing

And ask him who he thinks is the best guitarist around today

And ask him if it was his last show ever cause the world was gonna end tonight
who would he want to play with
and where

[I.O]

how much does he hate everyone calling it "tech-metal"

[Conversations]

I can answer a few of these because A) I just saw them and I talked to Greg a bit and B) I read all of the 200 question interview.

They don't have a real date set for the new stuff, but sometime towards the summer of next year is what it's looking like. And as far as how the new stuff will sound, he said that the guitarists are writing shit so hard they don't even know how to play it yet, and that it'll blow Calculating Infinity out of the water.

And as far as the great vocalists, he said he doesn't feel pressure to live up to them, because they ahd their own styles, and that's what he wanted to bring to Dillinger, something new and fresh. Creating something new, not building off the past.

[DroppedUrPocket]

Can his boner crush a small child?

[Big_Guy]

Have they been label shopping lately?

[Ramon]

What song have you guys been using for your intro for your live shows lately? Is it Journey?

How awesome is that kid with the chops that went to the SoCal shows and was up front the entire time at every show?

The biggest rumor about label shopping is that you're in love with Epitaph, and after you finish your commitment to Relapse, you'll be jumping ship to Epitaph. How true is this?

[manican sex]

HORSE the band are some pretty weird dudes how do feel about touring with a band that commits themselves to idolizing video game characters?

I can see greg thinkings thats fuckin stupid as shit
