EXCLUSIVE WEB DEBUT OF THE DILLINGER ESCAPE PLAN’S “CHINESE WHISPERS”
Tuesday, March 9th, 2010 at 1:00pm by MetalSucksThe release of The Dillinger Escape Plan’s Option Paralysis, their first album in more than two years, is just weeks away. If that’s not cause for rejoicing amongst metalheads everywhere, than nothing is. Few bands have pushed the envelope or influenced the scene this past decade as much as DEP, and Option Paralysis continues that proud tradition; it’s both a logical extension of and necessary evolution from Ire Works. Or, put more simply: it rules.
MetalSucks is proud to present the online debut of “Chinese Whispers,” one our most favoritest tracks from Option Paralysis. It’s melodic, aggressive, catchy, and off-the-wall fucknuts in a way that only Dillinger can be. (Tip: listen with a good pair of headphones.) We hope you dig it as much as we do.
Option Paralysis comes out March 23 on the band’s own Party Smasher Inc. in conjunction with Season of Mist.

I just read about this on their myspace and knew it would be up here at some point. Good shit.
Just heard the new Daughters album too, that album’s pretty sweet.
sweet track.stoked for this CD.
OMG WHY CAN’T THIS ALBUM BE OUT NOW?!?
Horrible song. And probably horrible album. It pains the ears. DEP shouldve broken up years ago.
*middle finger*
Jackass doesn’t know good music.
this asshole knows nothing.
this asshole knows nothing.
this asshole knows nothing.
wow.. so i meant that for you, and not to be posted three times below.. damn interwebs
so sweet.
hoping that they step by portugal
sounds like mastodon
Have you even heard Mastodon?
don’t question me. my opinion is vastly superior to yours

divinations. listen to them side by each. or overlapped. or on top of each. however you choose, you will hear the similarities.
????? !!!! ??? You must be jocking? Those 2 songs are not alike at all. It’s not because the tempo are the same and the voice are clear that make them the same.
This new dillinger escape plan song can ba compared to Milk Lizard, Black Bubblegum or Unretrofied. And any way, this song is much more jazzy tant mastodon’s, which sound more like heavy metal.
But you’re right, a metal band is always quite similar to an another metal band. I would have been much more worried if you had said that it reminded you any Michael Buble’s stuff…
As you said : “don’t question me. my opinion is vastly superior to yours” .. WOUhh,that sound like Yngwie Malmsteen ego, no?
???
That’s what I thought when I heard the beginning of the song too. Once it gets into it, not so much. But that’s a good thing.
I’m pumped for this album and I’m gonna see them in Columbus 4 days after this album comes out. Can’t wait.
Oh, and DEP is playing with Darkest Hour, iwrestledabearonce, & Animals as Leaders. Should be a great show.
Wow, one of those four does NOT fit…
FUCK YEAH! that’s good Dillinger.
Great song, but it seems to me like the lyrics have taken a step or two back, especially during the melodic parts in the two songs they’ve debuted. Really predictable rhymes.
WANT!
HOLY SHIT. My boner for this album has just gotten even harder.
Side note: Anybody else aside from me think that a tour where Dillinger opens for Faith No More or a Mr. Bungle reunion would be an awesome idea? Or is that just me?
no i agree. bungle escape plan. lol
The first time I saw & heard TDEP was when they opened for Mr. Bungle in 1999 (yep, I’m old), and
when you manage to confound fans of Mr. Bungle like they did you’re definitely doing something right.
Too bad MB isn’t around anymore, and tour-only-reunions (even for the almighty FNM) suck.
…i cant .. stop.. listening..
fucking amazing
Hands down best band around.
I will give them that they sound like no one else but this is not “metal”. I dont get what the big deal is about these guys (maybe they really arent a big deal just on the internet-blog world) but to each his own.
Didnt really blow me away, still psyched for the album though.
illlllllllll
AWESOME. However, those who are waiting for them to write calculating infinity again will be very disappointed. Whatever, fuck ‘em.
Don’t worry, the people who want them to rewrite Calculating Infinity are oblivious to evolution. They’re essentially the Evangelicals of mental fandom and should be treated as such.
Fuck yes. Sooooo ready for this.
Very poor IMHO
Worst song I have heard in a long time!
Uh…. You’re a papa roach fan, Invalid opinion.
In agreement with Gaia, you expect to be taken seriously when your name invokes appreciation of a “Nu-Metal” (inverted commas very much intended) let alone a horrendously low-quality nu-metal (lower case SUPREMELY intended) band? Your credibility on this comments page is beyond invalid. And before you retort with something like “Ummm hellooooooooo, it’s a joke name…….” let me reiterate…. the internet it is a powerful resource with which fucknuggets such as yourself are able to spew their uninspired “arguments”. And before you use the same argument against moi….. Dillinger fans have more credibility than non-Dillinger fans, and if you disagree then you are a shit kicker who doesn’t understand the Dillinger Escape Plan Mechanism (Capitals SUPERCALIFRAGIFUCKINGTASTICALLY intended.) hoobius out…
FUCK.
So GOOOD.
Track is ok but these songs seem like they could be off of Ire Works or something.
Album leaked. FUCK. It’s better than any of us could have imagined. Can’t wait for my copies to come in the mail.
meh, its OK but its nothing special
