The Dillinger Escape Plan have signed to Sumerian Records, who will release their new album in spring 2013 in conjunction with the band's imprint, Party Smasher Inc. Watch a teaser video in the replies.
Hmm. I'd say this is a surprise, but Sumerian's signings are kinda all over the place. Either way, I'm looking forward to this album. That video's kinda weird though.
This is a big deal since DEP has been so self-reliant for a while. Sumerian is an interesting choice as well, as this move ups the status for both sides. They'll get exposed to a lot of tours they wouldn't usually be open to, and hopefully the label will give them an avenue Dillinger hasn't had in a while.
