CD Review: The Dillinger Escape Plan - Miss Machine

At first glance, most Dillinger Escape Plans music comes off as a chaotic mess to hose unfamiliar with them. A closer look reveals that they in fact play a lot of other musical genres typically not related to anything metal or hardcore in an extreme setting. Lots of jazzy runs, to 60's soundtrack, to Nine Inch Nails and Faith No More make their way here. All that and so much more is wrapped up in a package of dissonant tones, strange runs, well hidden breakdowns, and vocals that sound like a train wreck.

Some people didn’t like the clean singing going on during this album, as there was none of that on “Calculating Infinity”. I see it as an expansion of ideas that were already there on their previous albums
