[Atomic]

Dillenger is one of the greatest bands eva!

i got ire works the other day and my assessment is still miss machine>ire works

[Atomic]

i'v got ire works, but not miss machine..yet
i ordered it in and it should be here in a few days
irony is a dead scene is awesome

[goldpony]

prepare to be blown away

[defskull]

Ire Works and Miss Machine are two very different records.  So much that I don't even feel like they can be compared.  I enjoy both of them, but I feel like I enjoy them for entirely incomparable different reasons.

[vadimo]

i just miss all the math Miss Machine had

[defskull]

Does Ire Works not have enough? Though it's not all mathy, I like the variety.

[goldpony]

i just felt like ire works was a step back or sideways, not forward. the heavy songs, especially the first two just sound forced to me. like they were trying to appeal to people who liked their older works. i dont know if this actually the case but thats just my opinion. i would say it feels like ire works should have come out before miss machine. it seems to fit in the bands evolution better there. does that make sense?

I see it as them evolving and perhaps moving away from the mathy stuff. 

It appears as if DEP will become one of those bands that branches out and experiments with various other genres like Deftones.

I agree 100 percent. The first two songs sound incredibly forced.

just ordered my ticket for their London gig in February

oh shit forgot, i'll do that too! I think between the buried and me are supporting which will be cool.

Dillinger should never stop making math metal CDs, they are one of the best bands at that.

[White Wrist]

i am loving this cd. The shorter and hard hard songs, not my favourite. but the others...are so much intense. So much variety. Really cool!

[whodunit?]

they've played in Poland just two months ago. I couldn't go to see them because of my job  I read the article about the whole festival, cause they played the gig during METALMANIA festival, but most people booed them. I hope the play another gig some time in Poland again.

DVD !

[bright lights, big city]

that dvd will own

[Battle-Axe]

I absolutely love this band. Saw them live on Valentine's Day in Manchester and Ben just about hit me in in the head with his guitar hahah. Sweet fucking band and it was one of the best shows I've ever been to, plus I got like a quarter of a setlist. Would've got the whole thing, but during the last song [Sunshine The Werewolf], Ben dragged one of his cabs to the middle of the stage and spent most of his time on top of it... and it fell onto Greg's setlist, hence I could only grab part of it after the show

Ire Works is definitely in my top 3 albums of last year. Horse Hunter is probably my favourite track :]

[Alvar]

yes, horse hunter is a brilliant track. also, brents voice sounds so great!

I know! I put the CD on at work when I first got it and was busy seeing to customers so I didn't read the liner notes or anything... and then suddenly I hear Brent Hinds and I'm like fuuuck - Mastodon are one of my favourite bands
